Children adjudged adult enough to make a decision to stay in

Subject: CHARITY IS UNETHICAL
Charity is Unethical
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <11/29>
This the time of Christmas where the spirit of man going
back thousands of years has found to be a time of giving gifts, a
time of universal brotherhood, and a time of peace. This is a
time when you remember the true spirit of charity.
And amongst this is an active prohibition against our
military from participating in it save on their own time. I am
certain they will if they can get the leave time. At the moment
no duty time can be put toward this ancient tradition.
Rather our government has prohibited such things as Marine
Corp participation in Toys for Tots as unethical. Not merely
prohibited. Not merely frowned upon. No. Our government has to
hold it is unethical to ask for toys for needy children and do
the logistics for this charitable effort.
Unethical is a very nasty term for professionals and our
military is a profession these days. In what manner providing a
happy Christmas for poor children can be compared to a politician
buying a $300,000 a year retirement job with special interest
legislation is beyond me. Converting stamps to cash is not only
unethical, it is criminal. Collecting toys for children at
Christmas is now no better than Dan Rostenkowski.
In the government’s eyes perhaps there should be no charity
at Christmas, rather an entitlement program. The parent gets an
interview, a form is filled out, if all the questions are
answered to qualify, “take this form to the third door on the
left and collect one toy. Merry Christmas.”
Giving a gift is as much for the giver as the receiver. It
is a time to put away the cold and callous part of life we find
we need the rest of the year to survive. And we think we have it
hard.
How would you like to spend eleven months a year developing
your skills not at being callous but at killing. Is not it good
for them also to have a month’s respite to use those same talents
in the time of the year that provides the greatest catharsis for
all of us? I should not be pretending to speak for the Marines
but I am at a loss to find this unethical behavior.
I am also at a loss to understand why government involvement
in direct person to person charity is unethical. It is truly in
no way different from providing a military band and marchers for
a Fourth of July parade or are we to find next July that is also
unethical? Where is it written that government helping the
deserving must be the same as the bureaucracy filling out forms
for the poor to get a toy?
There is charity and there is the government. And there is
no charity, there is no merit, in what the government does nor is
there merit in supporting what the government does.
Decades ago when the poor could not afford their own
Christmas Tree with decorations that make children’s eyes go wide
there was a tradition. The one place in town that everyone could
get to by bus was the town square, the municipal building,
whatever it was called. And on that spot was an act of charity
for the children of the poor and even their parents. That was a
display of the symbols of their Christmas they could not afford.
A brightly lighted tree beyond their dreams, a manger scene
for their ideals of Christmas. There were traditions to be
passed to those who could not afford it for themselves. Today we
prohibit this to the poor and to their children.
Certainly in the name of isolation from religion we tell the
poor to just get in their cars and go look at something far off
of the public transportation routes and forget they have no cars.
Of course we still have the Christmas trees but there can be no
manger scene beneath it.
Nor can poor Jews see a Menorrah display they could not
afford unless they have a car to get to it and if so they are not
poor. The poor must be dealt with in a manner consistent with
the highest code of government conduct rather than as person to
person. If compassion does not have a properly filled out form
it is prohibited.
We are now in the final throws of assigning all human
emotion to the government and any other expressions of it being
prohibited by law. Government charity that is not controlled by
law and bureaucracy is unethical. I wish you all a Merry
Christmas. And to all a good night.

AO> I missed it. Do you mean join the military or turn military

No, simply there is barracks style living and facilities and
the like. “for the children” does not mean the parent should
have a separate apartment and the like at our expense. They want
housing and food, go to a military base type shelter. It will be
purely free choice. There will be plenty of labor to make it
work for them to earn money for anything beyond subsistence if
they want.
If a barracks becomes a mess they are all kicked out unless
cleaned up and any person making the mess it the responsibility
of the barracks. And anyone not liking the deal can leave at
any time.
But the key is completely voluntary else live on the street
with nothing from the gov.

AO> I didn’t understand this… Maybe you left some words out.
Don’t I always?
I was trying to say is that if they are not draining the
system I would not have an issue. Were they so require a some
sort of certificate of “no welfare” then certainly they are paying
an accepted share of the school system as they have to be paying
rent some place. But there is no obvious way to make that
separation.
If paying then OK else IF sucking then get on the bus back
home.
There is no obvious way to implement that save in the
welfare vice the school system although the school system is
simply one more way to find these criminals.
AO> MG> The problem being that federal law does no permit
AO> MG> this. It requires indiscriminant welfare and the like. It
AO> MG> permits no choice or decision as to the benefit of the

AO> MG> I find that unacceptable but having to take a side I am on
AO> MG> the side of chartering a lot of buses for Tiajuana.
AO> I like the ideas of the governor of Michigan. They had a

AO> People could not collect welfare in Michigan unless they
AO> did a certain amount of volunteer work. The people who
AO> did the volunteer work eventually found jobs because of
AO> the contacts gained through volunteering. I have a
AO> cousin who has been on welfare for 10 years. She would
AO> probably give up her welfare check and go get a job
AO> rather than volunteer her time, or continue to leach off
AO> her mother. I think something should be done about the
AO> welfare system.
With any luck it will be ended or shaken up so badly it
should get back in its hole in this coming year. Despite the
price tag, The Bell Curve is worth reading. (Trick given by the
authors, read the first two and last pages of each chapter to get
the point. I tested it. That is correct.)
The reasonable recommendations at the end would be in her
favor and even in the favor or those hardest hit by the present
system. I am not saying I agree with all of them but they are
seriously worth considering.

I will pursue the validity of this claim. Between the US

have a cousin born in Germany of a German mother and never had
German citizenship and never had to go through any renunciation

That and a reference on this subject to the only countries

Marines retreat from Toys for Tots
President Clinton’s ethics rules may change the Marines into
Grinches this holiday season by forcing them to forgo some of
their traditional activities in the annual Toys for Tots
campaign.
For the past 47 years, the Marine have ventured into
communities at Christmastime seeking assistance in collecting,
storing and transporting toys for needy children. But no more.
Under the new rules, active-duty Marines and reservists
“won’t be soliciting services or materials” in the toy collection
drive, said Gunnery Sgt. Jim Martin, spokesman for the Marine
Forces Reserve in New Orleans.
“This is all the result of Inauguration Day, when President
Clinton signed off on a new set of ethics regulations,: Sgt.
Martin said. “It’s taken this long to tweak the nuts and bolts
and find out how everything fits into it.”
Though the ethics rules don’t bar Marines from asking for
toys for the children, they do prevent them from transporting the
toys in military vehicles and storing them government warehouses,
the sergeant said.
What’s more, government computers will no longer be used to
catalog items for the campaign, he said, adding that new Toys for
Tots promotional materials will no longer feature Marines.
“I respect the Marines’ desire to follow the orders of their
commander-in-chief, but it’s unusual that, in the interest of
ethics, you can’t help out children at Christmas,” Said Kristi
Hamrick, spokeswoman for the Family Research Council. “I hope
this can be changed.”
The Standard News Radio Network previously reported the
Marines’ toy-drive changes.
According to Capt. James Disney, another Marine Forces
Reserve spokesman, the changes are in direct response to “Joint
Department of Defense (DOD) Ethics Regulations,” published in
August.
An internal Marine Corps memo said the “type and level of
official Marine Corps participation in ‘Toys for Tots’ campaigns
is now governed by a newly published DOD regulation, the
Standards of Conduct.
Some activities conducted by the Marines in the past as part
of those campaigns “are no longer appropriate,” the memo said.

wealth that a reasonable person would have under the customs of
his country.
Additionally priority is given to family members of citizens
in this country and that is in terms of the form of family in the
country of origin usually meaning extended families not in
current US terms.
OK. You said it was arbitrary. Point out what you consider
arbitrary. Back it up with the Congressional debates on the

When free clinics are half empty when they should be full

As for your being unconvinced, you are rather correct, see
below. They are taking good jobs from citizens who want them.
And they are taking those jobs by violating federal law making
them guilty of two violations of law.

MR> justice system.
And also make them come in legally. And if you have not
noticed, the law is that there will be no accommodation for them.
This law does not deport them. It simply cuts them off from any
and all non-emergency state services, services to which they have
no right due to their status as criminals.
The following is from: The Immigration Time Bomb.
In *1979* San Diego County study discovered that between
13,000 and 25,000 illegal aliens were working in that area.
Only about 8 percent of the aliens were working in
agriculture. Most held jobs in manufacturing, construction,
retailing and service industries. The same study found that
many of the jobs held by illegal aliens were attractive to
unemployed Americans, including 93 percent of the
manufacturing jobs, 90 percent of the construction jobs, 71
percent of service jobs, 69 percent of the retail jobs and 50
percent of agricultural jobs. At the time of the study, it
was estimated that between 10,200 and 15,200 American workers
were being displace by illegal aliens in San Diego County.
The Urban Institute, in The Fourth Wave (1984), a study of the
impact of Mexican immigration on conditions in the state of
California concluded that:
The majority of recent immigrants to Southern California,
both Mexicans and others, are illegal aliens.
Around 645,000 new jobs were created in Los Angeles
County between 1970 and 1980. Over two-thirds of these
jobs were taken by recent immigrants. (And you wonder
why the blacks in LA can’t find work.)
The presence of Mexican alien workers has reduced wages
in low-skill occupations.
State expenditures for public services used by Mexican
aliens have not been offset by taxes paid by them.
In April *1982* the INS conducted “Operation Jobs,” a major
effort that arrested thousands of illegal aliens on the job.
Eighty-two plants in nine metropolitan areas were raided. In
the Chicago area, for example, illegals were discovered
holding jobs that paid from $4.82 to more than $10 an hour.
Aliens arrested at a Chicago construction site were earning
$16.78 an hour. Illegal aliens in Denver were found working
on jobs paying over $12 an hour. The average hourly wage paid
apprehended illegals in San Francisco was $5.19. “Operation
Jobs” opened up some excellent jobs for unemployed American
citizens and gave additional proof of the impact of illegal
immigration on employment.
Studies of the employment of illegal aliens in Houston,
conducted by Rice University economist Donald Huddle, found
that one-third of the workers in commercial construction in
that city are illegal aliens, earning from $4.00 to $9.50 an
hour – or up to $20,000 annually. Dr. Huddle observed that
“These wages debunk the commonly held notice that illegal
aliens are taking only those jobs that American workers don’t
want because they are so lowly paid.”

We can not separate children from their parents. The

And in any event, the ultimate objective is to get them

What in the hell are you talking about? They are mainly

once they are across the border it will be Mexico’s problem.
What Wilson needs to do now is pardon the illegals who are taking

Tough shit. That is the fault of their criminal parents.

I don’t know who challenged you or where. I do know it was not on
this conference. Your first posting here was the Face on AIDS II
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
on September 18, 1994. Since that thread is now off topic here,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
you might want to continue it where you were challenged. I
suspect that it started on AIDS/ARC since you were confused about
who the moderators of this conference are.

When you find one you might also ask them why written Hebrew

Subject: THE BELL CURVE
Having gotten much of “The Bell Curve” second hand I have
recently had enough time to get into it in enough detail to
comment upon it.
The purpose of the book is not to make the case of race and
IQ, rather it is to make the case of IQ as a predictor of what we
as a society consider to be what is good for people and society.
That it happens that when it comes to people that the best
predictor is their race is a consequence of the studies not the
purpose of them.
The book book contains chapters are grouped by general areas
of interest such as education success and job success. Within
these groupings you will find most everything of social interest
in this country.
Each chapter includes [NOTE CAREFULLY] the arguments in each
case that have been used to say that IQ is not relevant to the
subject. In each case the argument is more than adequately
refuted. The most common refutation is simply to show the
results of a study that attempted to support the refutation and
to find that it not support the refutation.
And in each chapter the case is made by reference to actual
studies and their results. In these chapters there is no
question that the case is made for the value of a measure of IQ
as the best predictor of accomplishment in any area. One could
call it the definitive work on the subject. It is also shown
conclusively that there is no rational basis to detract from the
use of IQ as a measure.

Subject: THE BELL CURVE
One of the thrusts of The Bell Curve is the rise of the
cognitive elite. God, that’s a nasty term, they could have done
better.
Here is what they are talking about. (They, yes, one of the
author’s escaped the coming firestorm over the book in the
grave.)
In most of history society was stratified in some manner.
Be it master / slave, nobility / middle class / peasant, even no
middle class these lines were rarely crossed. And as a sidebar,
when they were they were prosperous periods in human history.
As IQ distribution follows the standard bell curve in any
non-mating population. Thus there were genius slaves and genius
kings in about equal proportion. We did not hear of the genius
slaves as they were limited in education and the like and
certainly limited in access to the opportunity to demonstrate
their brilliance.
These limitations did not always hold down the slaves as
demonstrated by more than one slave revolt such as Spartacus.
Peasants arose such as Joan of Arc.
On the other hand the lack of limitations on kings gave them
adequate opportunity to demonstrate there were as many stupid
kings as stupid slaves. History is a chronicle of their
disasters.
When there was a revolution it was lead by the brightest of
the lower classes against the average of the upper hereditary
classes and for a short period of time the intelligent made
something of the country. After a while the bell curve
established itself again and they became the mediocre average.
Before the “heresy” in the south of France was put down a
few centuries ago marrying across classes was acceptable based
upon merit. It was considered an aspect of chivalry to promote
upon merit rather than upon “bell curve” birth. The south
prospered until conquered by the north and the rigid class
structure was imposed. (The south was overwhelmed by manpower
and the north took very disproportionate losses to win.)
Today we have, clearly shown by IQ results, that the average
person, no matter what the circumstances of birth or conditions
of life will rise to the average station is society of his IQ
group.
There is a little statistics in there. What it means is
that in feudal days there were genius peasants, middle class and
nobility and, although society was uniformly mediocre at all
levels, there was a normal human social distribution at all
levels.
If a dumb peasant had a problem he could take a chicken to
his neighbor the bright peasant and get an answer to his problem.
The king who was smart enough to know there were smarter nobility
could grant a powerful office and get good and wise counsel.
Today the smart kid born in the slum grew up and moved to
the suburbs years ago. There is no one for the dumb kid born in
the slum to learn from. The child of the business tycoon may
inherit some money but he is most likely to lose it faster than
his father earned it. And after losing it, there is an empty
apartment in the slum for him to live in.
This “cognitive elite” is a separation of the population not
only upon lines of intelligence but upon lines of communication,
jobs, meeting places, living places, everything. There are very,
very few places where these people meet and even so even fewer
where they can effectively interact. Middle class folks can be
good neighbors regardless of IQ and respect each other for it and
help each other for what they know and can do for each other.
But when the brighter is rewarded by better paying jobs and
other opportunities he is not going to be in a middle class
neighborhood very long.
And that is what is happening today that the authors are
trying to point out. Given our open society we are naturally
creating without any outside force or forces a meritocracy. And
the characteristics of that meritocracy are effective isolation
by IQ.
A consequence of this has been noted for years in the
collapse of the inner city. What really caused it? Probably
more the legal end to discrimination than the start of welfare.
As soon as the intelligent blacks were able to get better jobs
and leave they were history. And that left the black
neighborhoods with only those who could not get out to be the
neighborhood. Imagine your neighborhood fifteen points dumber.
And other than neighborhood and communication and the like
is there another reason for this separation? Consider the person
with the 130 IQ views the person with the 100 IQ in the same
manner as the person with the 100 IQ views the person with the 70
IQ. Imagine how the person with the 160 or the 190 IQ views the

Subject: WHY IS IT DIFFERENT NOW?
Speaking of word eating.
In 1992 Dems were claiming the pre-election increase in the
economy as demonstrated by over 4% in the quarter in which
Clinton was nominated, was because of Clinton.
It happened again. This time it must be due to the
Republican victory. Right? If not, why is it different two
years later?

You are missing something here. One needs heat for
distillation. For large scale production you need more heat than
can be provided by the waste products of the crop being used.
That additional heat has to be paid for. On a small scale he
could use the wastes of all of his crops to do the distillation
and not be paying for the extra heat.
Next, feeding the animals with the waste is fine IF the
animals are nearby. If it has to be shipped it starts to rot
unless it too is dried out at additional costs.
Everything you saw can be done on a small farm that is self
sufficient. It is when you get into large scale production that
the costs start going up mainly due to the extra heat required
for distillation.

Subject: FLOODING THE MODERNяяяяяя
The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the
Supreme Being as his Father, in the womb of a virgin will be
classified with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the
brain of Jupiter. But we may hope that the dawn of reason and
freedom of thought in these United States will do away with this
artificial scaffolding and restore to use the primitive and
genuine doctrines of this most veneterated Reformer of human
errors.
–Thomas Jefferson
<***>
I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature.
–Thomas Jefferson
<***>
The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity.
Nowhere in the Gospels do we find a precept for Creeds,
Confessions, Oaths, Doctrines, and whole carloads of other
foolish trumpery that we find in Christianity.
—John Adams
<***>
The Bible is not my Book and Christianity is not my religion. I
could never give assent to the long complicated statements of
Christian dogma.
–Abraham Lincoln
<***>
As to Jesus of Nazareth . . . I think the system of Morals and
his Religion, as he left them to us, the best the World ever saw
or is likely to see; but I apprehend it has received various
corrupting Changes, and I have, with most of the present
Dissenters in England, some doubts as to his divinity.
—Benjamin Franklin
<***>
They [preachers] dread the advance of science as witches do the
approach of daylight and scowl on the fatal harbinger announcing
the subversions of the duperies on which they live.
–Thomas Jefferson
<***>
I find every sect, as far as reason will help them, make use of
it gladly; and where it fails them, they cry out, ‘It is a
matter of faith, and above reason.’
–John Locke
<***>
I have recently been examining all the known superstitions of
the world, and do not find in our particular superstition
[Christianity] one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded
on fables and mythology.
–Thomas Jefferson
<***>
But a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer
of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from
by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted
into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandizing their
oppressors in Church and State.
–Thomas Jefferson to S. Kercheval, 1810
<***>
I cannot conceive otherwise than that He, the Infinite Father,
expects or requires no worship or praise from us, but that He is
even infinitely above it.”
—Benjamin Franklin from “Articles of Belief and Acts of
Religion”, Nov. 20, 1728
<***>
Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if
there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than
that of blind-folded fear.
–Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), U.S. president. Letter, 10 Aug.
1787.
<***>
“A lively and lasting sense of filial duty is more effectually
impressed on the mind of a son or daughter by reading King Lear,
than by all the dry volumes of ethics, and divinity, that ever
were written.”
–Letter to Robert Skipwith [August 3, 1771]
<***>
Where the preamble declares, that coercion is a departure from
the plan of the holy author of our religion, an amendment was
proposed by inserting “Jesus Christ,” so that it would read “A
departure from the plan of Jesus Christ, the holy author of our
religion;” the insertion was rejected by the great majority, in
proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its
protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and
Mohammedan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination.
–Thomas Jefferson Autobiography in reference to the
Virginia Act for Religious Freedom”
<***>
**Note** This one by Jefferson (below), clearly is an attack on
Christianity, to it’s very roots!**
The truth is, that the greatest enemies of the doctrine of Jesus
are those calling themselves the expositors of them, who have
perverted them to the structure of a system of fancy absolutely
incomprehensible, and without any foundation in his genuine
words. And the day will come when the mystical generation of
Jesus by the Supreme Being as his father, in the womb of a
virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of
Minerva in the brain of Jupiter.
–Jefferson Letter to Adams, Apr 11, 1823.

Subject: FLOODING THE MODERNяяяяяя
[Of Jesus] Among the sayings and discourses imputed to him
by his biographers, I find many passages of fine imagination,
correct morality, and of the the most lovely benevolence, and
others, again of so much ignorance, so much absurdity, so much
untruth, charlatanism and imposture, as to pronounce it
impossible that such contradictions should have proceeded from
the same being. I separate, therefore, the dross; restore to him
the former and leave the latter to the stupidity of some, the
roguery of others of his disciples. Of this band of dupes and
imposters, Paul was the great Coryphaeus, and first corruptor of
the doctrines of Jesus.
–Jefferson Letter to W. Short, 1820.

I cannot say that I am descended from the bastards of Oliver
Cromwell, or his courtiers, or from the Puritans who punish
their horses for breaking the Sabbath, or from those who

<***>
There is not any thing, which has contributed so much to delude
mankind in religious matters, as mistaken apprehensions
concerning supernatural inspiration or revelation; not
considering that all true religion originates from reason, and
can not otherwise be understood, but by the exercise and
improvement of it.
– -Ethan Allen, American Revolutionary Hero Reason, The Only
Oracle of Man
As the United States is not in any sense founded on the
Christian Religion,-as it has itself no character of enmity
against the law, religion or tranquility of Musselmen,…

Tripoli of Barbary.Treaties and Other International Acts of of

“I think vital religion has always suffered when orthodoxy is
more regarded than virtue. The scriptures assure me that at the

“I cannot conceive otherwise than that He, the Infinite Father,
expects or requires no worship or praise from us, but that He is

“I wish it (Christianity) were more productive of good works …
I mean real good works … not holy-day keeping, sermon-hearing

compliments despised by wise men, and much less capable of
pleasing the Deity.”
–Benjamin Franklin Works, Vol. VII, p. 75

“What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had
on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a
spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many
instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political
tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the
liberties of the people.”
–James Madison A Memorial and Remonstrance,
addressed to the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of
Virginia, 1785.
<***>
“Experience witnesseth that ecclesiastical establishments,
instead of maintaining the purity and efficacy of religion, have
had a contrary operation. During almost fifteen centuries has
the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has
been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and
indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity;
in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution.”
–James Madison A Memorial and Remonstrance, addressed to
the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia, 1785.

“I almost shudder at the thought of alluding to the most fatal

“What havoc has been made of books through every century of the
Christian era? Where are fifty gospels, condemned as spurious
by the bull of Pope Gelasius? Where are the forty wagon-loads
of Hebrew manuscripts burned in France, by order of another

expurgatorius’, the inquisition, the stake, the axe, the halter

to be indicted for criminal activities.
Remember plausible deniability? Every partner of the

be under felony indictment or guilty plea by the first of the

Of course, only the Clintons are innocent while all of their

The issue is more clear than that. Find a non-citizen in
the country without documentation and you have caught someone in
the act of committing a crime. They are committing their crime
24 hours a day for as long as they are in the country.
The simple act of finding them is no different than catching
any other criminal in the act of committing a crime.
As I pointing out in my article on the subject requiring the
state to give state benefits to these criminals is no different
from requiring the state to provide benefits to all prisoners
housed within the state both before and after conviction. Things
like welfare payments and food stamps and medicaid would have to
be provided. That is neither consistent nor rational.

Subject: THE NAKED PRESIDENT
The Naked President
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/9>
Senator Jesse Helms started taking heat for stating the
obvious, President William Jefferson Blythe Clinton is not
qualified to be the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the
United States. If anyone wants to pretend he is qualified they
first have to explain away twenty two dead Marines in Somalia
because they were refused the equipment to perform their mission.
Those Marines attempted to perform their mission regardless of
equipment and died for following the orders of the incompetent
Commander in Chief Clinton.
The sanctimonious indignation was bipartisan. Democrats and
Republicans, starting the Bob Dole, said President Clinton had
the job and therefore something. The something was never stated.
It reminds of the crowd applauding the Emperor’s New Clothes. No
one was willing to say what they were applauding nor could the
possibly know what they were applauding. But they were
applauding our naked president.
From his own lips his only qualification to be Commander in
Chief of the United States Armed Forces is that he once called
out the Arkansas National Guard. He was asked the question.
That was his answer. Do not complain to me that is his only
qualification. Complain to him.
Why is this treated like a family secret? After his first
trip as president to a NATO delegates of other countries were
interviewed. They stated, in no uncertain terms, that the US was
no longer the leader of NATO and they would be searching for
another country to become the leader. It is not as though other
countries do not know it. It is not as though Saddam Hussein
does not listen to CNN.
So what is the point of maintaining this pretense that
President Clinton is smartly and fashionably dressed as a
military leader? There is no need to dredge out his childhood,
Rhodes Scholar history to try to show he loathes the military.
Perhaps he loves the military. So did the leader of the Third
Reich; he was simply incompetent in leading it.
The last political leader in the west truly qualified to
also be a military leader was Bonaparte. We should not expect to
always have political leaders who are competent in the job. That
President Clinton is our first and such an egregious example of
incompetence is simply the luck of the draw in our election
process. It had to happen some time.
The man has other sterling qualities which we admire in a
president. Let us meditate upon them for a moment…
That was long enough and I am certain we were all able to
think of all of his qualities in the allotted ellipsis.
Certainly he taught and understands constitutional law. Was it
surprising to anyone that his two of his first three announced
plans regarding gays in the military were violations of his one
day old oath of office and impeachable offenses if implemented?
So he is no more qualified to understand the constitution
than he is to be Commander in Chief. Is that all bad? I mean
this is a man who is so qualified to revise health care in
America that turns it over to his unqualified but attorney wife
who will soon have to appear in court for her violations of the
law in the matter. This is a man whose closest business partner,
Webster Hubbell, is a confessed felon.
This man has a lot to recommend him. At the meeting of the
Democratic Leadership Conference he tells a joke implying either
he or his wife is bad luck for the Democrat Party. In moments of
stress, and losing Congress is a great stress, politicians, like
engineers, are likely to blurt out the truth.
So perhaps for the first time we have a truthful statement
from this man; he is a jynx. It was his jynx that resulted in
the deaths of 22 United States Marines for following his orders
with inadequate equipment to fulfill those orders. It was his
jynx that has turned NATO into a paper tiger. It was his jynx
that put his wife onto health care reform and now we have jack
shit.
His defenders love to say he is a complex man, that he is
hard to understand in any one speech. Let me put this man in
perspective. While trying to recover from the election day loss
he as endorsed five of the ten items in the House Republican
Contract with America. That is a complex man. Half of him is an
arch-conservative Republican.
Rather that is the way the wind is blowing today. President
Clinton is a man who will say anything at any time for the
transitory gains of the moment. President Clinton is more like
the clothes than the emperor, only his true believers can see him
as a qualified president.
What is the real Bill Clinton? It is not the president. It
is not the commander in chief. The real Bill Clinton is the
emperor who struts down the street, not for the vanity of the new
clothes, rather for the momentary approval of the crowds. Long
life Bill Clinton! Long may he suck up to us all.

British Press Warns USGOV & ADL to Stop Planning Waco’s
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Partiot games turn deadly
[The Sunday Telegraph 4 Dec. 1994]
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard
The commanders of the Texas Constitutional Militia ( northern
region ) were gathered for a strategy session in a cold workshop
outside Dallas.
[…]
The Texas Constiutional Militia are not an underground guerrilla
force. But they want to keep a low profile during the crucial
organizing phase. Most of them dissapprove of the now celebrated
Michigan Militia which has gone public in a spectacular way by
releasing a videotape of itself training with assault rifles in
the woods.
Like other militia’s around the country, the TCM is growing at
phenominal speed. It began earlier this year, holding it’s first
“muster” at the Alamo on April 19. Seven months later it already
has 32 counties under arms. New counties are joining at the rate
of 2 a week. There are no formal rosters of membership, but the
leaders claim that several thousand Texans are actively participa-
ting in one way or another.
The Militia is not to be confused with the Texas National Guard
which is a Reserve Organization of the US Armed Forces. It is a
spontaneous army of citizens, invoking a constituional right to
bear arms and to join together in the defence of liberty.
[…]
The last straw was the Waco assault, the gassing and incineration
of 17 children and 64 adults at the Branch Davidian commmunity last
year. Nobody has been brought to account for that abuse of power.
“We were sleep-walking through life. It was the massacre that woke
us all up”, said John Turner, a small businessman who commands the
northern region of Texas.
” When the history of this age is written, that’ll be the shot
that rang out around the world and changed everything”.
[…]
Training is done by a team of former Green Berets and Navy Seals. It
includes survival techniques and urban and rural guerrilla warfare.
Turner insisted that there was no plan to take offensive action.
“We’re 90 per-cent real Christians . We don’t want to start blowing
up bridges or sniping at Judges.”
[…]
“We have penetrated the governments electronic intelligence system
and we’ve turned it against them.” says John Roland, a former Civil
Rights and Enviromental Activist who helped set up the TCM. “There
are lots of Little Brothers watching the Big Brothers”.
The main purpose of the movement, its members claim, is deterence.
Every time the government oversteps its authority it will have to
consider the possibility of armed opposition. And if it tries another
Waco, it will have a minor war on its hands.
The National Guard will not be of much help, at least in Texas. A
large number of police officers, sherriffs and reserve guardsmen are
secret members of the militia. The army cannot be counted on either.
Behind the Texas Constitutional Militia there are layers of para-
military groups that tap into the US Military Complex.
For example, there are three battalions of the Texas Light Infantry.
They are disgruntled former members of the Texas State Guard, a
military police auxiliary under state control. “We do airborne
parachuting, night ambush operations, and we simulate explosives” said
Gert Ording, commander of the Third Battalion in Bryan.
Secretly, ther is much else besides. The most serious force appears
to be Big Star One, a Division sized network in northern Texas,
Oklahoma and New Mexico that includes serving officers of the U.S.
military. If found out they could face a court martial.
It is made up of three military Brigades, according to a member of
one outfit: The Delta, Culpepper and Orange brigades. “We’re primarily
training in guerrilla warfare. We learned a lot from the Viet-Cong.”
Among thier senior commanders are officers from the US artillery base
at Fort Sill, Oklahoma and Shepard Air Force Base in Texas. The
clandestine division has been excercing in west Texas using mortars
and grenade launchers. ” There will be no Waco in this area,” said the
source.
“If the shit hits the fan they’ll find the regular army and the
militia are in cahoots”.
A captain in the official Texas State Guard admitted the state was
“extremely concerned” about the unauthorized militias, and said that
he could forsee a rapid and dangerous escalation.
[…]
The Anti-Defamation League, an influential Jewish organization in New
York has published a Report on the Militias around the US entitled
“Armed and Dangerous”. It argues that most of them are fringe
malcontents from the Aryan Nation and other white supremicist or
neo-nazi organizations with an anti-semitic bias.
” I’m Jewish and I take offence to that,” says Mark Bowers, a
former artillery officer, who commands the Montgomery County militia
near Houston. “There’s nobody of that ilk in our unit. We’re trying
to recruit Blacks, Latinos, Jews, women, anybody who wants to join.”

MG> military leader? There is no need to dredge out his childhood,
Let’s do. His childhood was interesting.
Clinton was born in Hope, Ark., a town of about 8,000 souls
where they enjoyed such pastimes as moonshining and a watermelon
festival. His mother, Virginia, 23, delivered Clinton by
caesarean 3 months after the accidental death of her husband,
William Jefferson Blythe in a single car accident. He was a
salesman and they had just bought a house which she lost upon his
death. Virginia moved into her parents house with baby Bill as
she did not have sufficient financial resources to be
independent.
Clinton’s natural father was 28 when he was thrown from his
car somewhere in Missouri, landed face down in a ditch and
drowned. He had been married and divorced and fathered Clinton’s
half-brother, Henry Leon by this same woman after they were
divorced. Henry is a retired owner of a janitorial service in
California.
Clinton’s biological father never knew either Clinton or
Henry. It was also said that he had married the sister of
Henry’s mother at some point in order to avoid marrying another
girl who was said to be pregnant by him. There are also tales of
a daughter by some other woman somewhere in time.
Clinton won the “prettiest baby” contest once.
He was raised by his grandparents until he was about 4 years
old. His mother had gone to New Orleans for a year or so to be
certified as a nurse anesthetist.
Clinton was fat and clumsy in school and once fractured his
leg playing some game and was called a sissy when he cried.
Virginia married Roger Clinton when Clinton was about 4
years old. Roger, sometimes called “Dude”, is remembered as an
alcoholic who beat his wife. He had two stepsons by a former
marriage and had started a Buick dealership in Hope sometime
after the war. Apparently it didn’t prosper as he was always
borrowing money, usually from his former wife. He was a short
man, a snappy dresser who liked to fish and hunt and who was said
to be able to drink bourbon whiskey all day out of a water glass
and not appear drunk.
Roger Clinton was a violent person, shooting a rifle into
the ceiling on one occasion to scare his wife into not visiting a
dying relative in hospital. He was arrested for this incident.
After his dealership failed, Roger got work in Hope as a
parts manager at another dealership and Virginia worked as a
nurse anesthesiologist. They bought a house and had at least one
domestic servant who worked 40 hours a week for $15 around 1955.
Clinton’s mother, Virginia, was born somewhere around Hope
and was remembered as friendly, outgoing, real smart, a toucher
and feeler who puts her hands on your shoulder, a happy person.
Also described as a “character” by many, she had eyebrows painted
on her forehead, “huge false eyelashes”, and her hair was always
a “catching” color. She wore tube tops and enjoyed partying and
the racetrack and the Buick convertible. But she was also a
workaholic, on call 24 hours a day, seldom complaining about a
slipped disk and keeping as quiet as possible about the
mastectomy she had several years ago.
She doted on her son, Bill, proudly noting that he won every
election in school except one where he didn’t vote for himself.
He took his mother’s advice and never repeated this mistake.
When Clinton was 15 he swore in a deposition that his
stepfather had abused his mother and that he had threatened to
“mash my face in” if he took her part. Although this is a matter
of public record, Clinton claims he is unable to remember it. He
has also had great difficulty admitting his stepfather was an
alcoholic, a difficulty he shared with his mother. When Clinton
was 14 he broke in a door to stop his drunken stepfather from
beating up on his mother. Clinton was then the biggest family
member. His mother divorced Roger Clinton, remarrying him some 3
months later stating “he didn’t hit me a lot”.
Despite this violent, crisis-ridden home life, Clinton
contined to excel in school and in extracurricular activities,
seeing himself as destined to achieve something extraordinary
in music or politics.

It is something I will be getting to over the next few

is a value to tradition, some of which have a chance of being
more than custom. Considering the charitable tradition of what
we call the Christmas season can be traced back 2500 years it is
not as though people should be prohibited from the activity
because they are in a job where owning a car and having a house
as storage space is not financially practical.

matter of ethics in accepting weekly (27) briefings from the RTC
investigation of Madison Trust (and therefore Mcdougal) and in
failure to report a felony in failing to correct Altman’s lies to
Congress regarding those briefings.
So all we provably have are 27 instances of unethical
behavior and one felony instance of failure to report another
felony. The latter is impeachable but there was a Democratic
Congress to permit Altman to weasel out of the “Ollie North”
felony and the Clinton’s to get off the hook for their felonies,
and Clinton not to have a high crime for impeachment purposes.

You will note Democrats only received a majority from the
uneducated and (ref: The Bell Curve) the lower IQ voters. The
Republicans on the other hand received majorities from the better
educated and more intelligent voters.
One can draw whatever conclusions one wishes from this but
here are the facts. But then, what did anyone expect?

Subject: DISMANTLING WELFARE
Dismantling The Welfare State
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/13>
Thirty years ago, under the leadership of President Lyndon
Baines Johnson the United States embarked upon a plan to
eliminate poverty in America. This was called The Great Society.
Thirty years and 5 trillion dollars later we find ourselves with
as much poverty as ever and a dependent class.
With the 1996 election the US found the political will
dismantle this failure as quickly as possible. Dismantling the
programs is easy; they are simply not funded. This will leave
the political problem of assuming people will be able to overcome
the dependency status the government gave them as quickly as the
programs are terminated.
The temptation that will be resisted will be to slowly phase
out the programs. This will only lead to the dependent
attempting to survive upon less and less money each year rather
than face the inevitable. Two years from today’s system to
emergency services at most as far as the federal government is
concerned is more than enough in addition to the end of mandates
upon the states immediately.
The country is tired of seeing their money being wasted when
they have families of their own, when they have themselves, to
take care of. Too many are now aware, thanks to Hillary Clinton,
that their taxes are paying for free medical care for others that
they can not afford. People are certainly sick and tired of
being beat over the head with the poor to justify more of their
money for things that do no one any good.
Of course the liberals will hurl the moral epithets of
heartless, cruel, callous, uncaring, whatever words they can come
up with in a snit of high moral dudgeon. The press will agree
with them and give great play, not to those in a position to
respond politically, rather to those who are most creative or
emotional in their use of epithets. We will get the impression
the political landscape has become a tent revival.
In fact the attempt will be the same as always, to beat the
tax payer into moral submission with guilt. What they will learn
is that the country is not only fed up with it as demonstrated in
the election but has discovered the virtue of selfishness. The
virtue of selfishness is rewarded in tangible benefits to their
families and themselves, like taking the kids to the doctor
without having to eat beans for a week.
People are willing, whether the liberals like it or not, to
pay for national defense. Unlike liberals the majority believe
they are getting something tangible for their money. They will
be turning a deaf ear to the liberal condemnation of defense.
The people they have elected are like themselves and best
described not by liberal, not by conservative, rather by
libertarian. And libertarian is the best description of those
who wrote the constitution as the vast majority of libertarians
are strict constructionists of the constitution. If anyone
wishes to see the goal of the new Congress, read Atlas Shrugged;
the Objectivists have arrived.
That may sound a bit presumptuous, jumping the gun a bit,
but it is obvious. But it is the losers who see this better than
we do. Why else the claim that there is no mandate for the
Contract? If there is in fact no mandate for the Contract then
indeed the way to guarantee a Democrat sweep in 1996 is to
encourage the implementation of the Contract.
If there were truly not enough people voting this year for
there to be a mandate then again, encourage the implementation of
the Contract and they will sweep the elections in two years. If
the country will not like anything the new Congress does then
they can simply remain silent and win in 1996.
All of this excuse making and denial would be completely
useless were it not that the liberals believe that the people
really do want it. What other purpose in attempting to stop its
implementation?
The limpest excuse of all is the claim by Democrats that
they are speaking for the working man. A USA Today poll found
the only educational group in which they received a majority was
from those without a high school education. As academic
performance is directly related to intelligence it is clear who
the Democrats are claiming they are going to represent, the
poorly educated and the less intelligent.
Thus they will be concentrating upon the one socio-economic
group that has not abandoned them, the welfare class. Not only
is that the group targeted to end very soon but it is the only
class that appears to want to be represented by Democrats
regardless of Democratic assertations.
Of course with this will come the denials, the intellectual
arrogance, that liberalism and intelligence are the same thing
despite all the evidence being to the contrary.
There is no reason to pay attention to such protestations.
Listen to their words. Reason, intellectual excellence, rigorous
thought does not come from sanctimony, epithets, and demands that
one “feel” and “care.” Those are exactly the opposite of the
intellect. It is wallowing in emotion and expecting people to
respond to emotion with emotion. The rational mind does not.
The new Republicans still have a way to go. They have to
dump the religious influence in the party even if they support
the bipartisan desire for school prayer (72%) is the reason it
should be supported. They are moving in the right direction.
They need to reconsider the victimless crime laws and revert
solely to direct harm to others as a justification for laws.
There are a few minor things beyond that but the largest step has
been taken.
That the liberals are confident these will work and be the
end of the Democratic party is again expressed in their attack
upon it. Objectivism is about to be proven to work. Our only
job is to hold the Republican feet to the fire to assure they do
what they have said. Then we only have to worry about interest
rates as the Fed will be raising them to try to control an
exploding economy leading to unprecedented prosperity.

Subject: 2ND CHANCE FOR AMERICA
Second Chance
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/18>
“A Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of
government. It can only exist until the voters discover that
they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From
that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates
promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the
result that a Democracy always collapses over loose fiscal
policy, always followed by dictatorship.
— Fraser Tyler on the fall of the Athenian Republic
The question before is whether this election has given the
United States a short respite on the way down hill or a chance at
a new beginning. Whether or not Tyler is correct and the 1994
election was in minor blip on the landscape of the majority
voting for those with the most promises of government benefits or
it can be made into a new beginning is up to us.
There are two ways to view the 1994 election. One is that
the electorate was indeed wise enough to see road to ever
increasing government benefits and has turned away from fiscal
collapse. The other is that it was simply a revolt by those who
were not getting enough and the politicians will learn to make
more inclusive promises come the next election.
Sadly I think it will be the latter. I see it much more
likely that the future will see only an end to government
regulation and the regulatory agencies to give tax reductions (a
strange concept that taxes are the government’s to give) while
there not being an end to the direct financial handouts to other
voters.
I do not see the people as a whole understanding that giving
from the treasury does not include a reduction in taxes. Taxes
are not the treasury’s money to begin with. On the other hand,
the only general support for money give-aways is when the form of
the give-away changes but not the amount. Granted the current
Congress may be able to start a phase out of these give-aways but
it will take years of dedication to the elimination of all
give-aways to make it stick.
After a strong start in this Congress and possibly a phase
out schedule, whittling away at that start is more likely than
continued dedication to it’s complete elimination. Slowing the
phase out, diverting the money to other forms of hand out,
finding groups that are untouchable are all not only possible but
likely. More specifically the opposition, yes there is
opposition, is attempting to link the paid for social security
system with the unpaid for welfare system by calling both
entitlements.
This falsely connects an obligation the government incurred,
rightly or wrongly, in return for taxation under another name
with general revenue funds. If anyone has a problem with the
return being greater than what was paid in they are fiscally
stupid. That is what an investment is supposed to do and the
payments are coming from a fund completely paid for by
contributions, not the general revenues.
As Social Security is effectively a system that applies to
all employees in some manner it attempts to characterize all
citizens as beneficiaries of the largesse of the politicians.
There is opposition to ending the ability of people to vote
themselves the wealth of others. Obviously the motivation is the
ego trip of public power gained from elected office. These
people are willing to end our republic solely for their personal
aggrandizement. As with any Machiavellian thinker in a
democracy, it is a trivial observation that the greatest number
of votes wins. If the money is taken from the smaller group and
given to the larger the election results are certain.
That 1994 may be only a correction in this downward trend is
obvious. There may have been a miscalculation is the number of
voters in each class or the Republicans may simply have falsely
convinced people on the gaining side that they were on the losing
side. This appears to be the most common complaint from the
election losers, that the gaining side (the poor) truly deserve
the wealth of the losing side (the rich) but the poor were
tricked into voting against their own best interests.
Read what they are writing. Listen to what they are saying.
They have not retreated from holding there is some income level
where Americans below that level have a right to the property of
those above that level. They are clearly saying those below that
level were tricked into voting for those who would take away
their “right” to the property of others.
These people are intent upon returning America to the road
to collapse. They have not changed. They are not gone.
Consider the official Democrat response as delivered by Bill
Clinton. What kinds of tax cuts were he talking about? He says
to include things like home mortgages, medical expenses, and the
cost of education into the package. This is a clear attempt to
preserve the system of theft by simply including more
beneficiaries of the theft into the voting ranks of the thieves.
What this country has to do is eliminate every vestige,
every example, every slightest hint that any group in this
country has any right to any unique benefit from the government.
We must establish as dogma, and persecute all heretics so to
speak, that the only purpose of government is to benefit all
equally. The common defense is a common benefit. Entitlement
program benefits only those entitled to them.
And at the same time the most fundamental concept of the
thieves, that the government has a right to taxes and that taking
less in taxes is a benefit from the politicians. A thief is no
less a thief for taking less rather than more. The morality of
theft is not improved by leaving the victim bus fare to get
home.
The same has to go for all special interest legislation.
That means every bit of it. Does one business, group or
organization have a legislatively unfair advantage over another?
The answer is not new legislation. The answer is repealing the
old legislation. Not only does that solve the problem but it
shrinks the federal government as fewer people are needed to
enforce that legislation.
This will require an unconditional return to the letter of
our constitution and not one whit more. Regulation does not mean
prohibition. All men are created equal and must have equal
protection under the law be they employer or employee, rich or
poor, sick or healthy. A nation does seem a touch like a
marriage in that it is doomed if it is a constant battle for
special privilege to be enforced by an outside source.
We have the chance to make this change permanent. We have a
second lease upon the life of this country if we can hold on to
it. A new start can always be made with a violent revolution.
This can be a new start with a peaceful revolution and just as
important, just as great a deviation from the failed social
systems of the rest of the world.
If we retreat, if we do aggressively pursue our objective, If
we allow exceptions in the name of political expedience, if we
waiver in the least we are lost to destructive power of a
promissory democracy. And if we succumb this time the republic
is lost.
Social order can then only be maintained by a single minded
dictatorship which has no need to destroy the finances of the
country to maintain political power. It is our choice, America.
Pray we make the right choice.

Rethinking the Surgeon General
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994
A question occured to me some days ago. What is the
function of the Surgeon General? From what we see lately it is
to appear in public and say stupid things. But even going back
to the C. Everett Koop days what was he doing other than
appearing in uniform?
A lot of help from my friends has uncovered some details.
It appears the Surgeon General is the head of the United States
Public Health Service. OK, lets have a show of hands. How many
people have heard of the US Public Health Service? I don’t see
many hands.
Lets do a little history first. It began as the Marine
Hospital Service in 1798 providing medical relief to merchant
seamen and continued to 1902 in that capacity. That explains why
a General would wear an Admiral’s uniform. But that is history.
Today the Surgeon General is in charge of the National
Institute of Health, the Food and Drug Administration, the Health
Resources Administration, the Health Services Administration, the
Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration, and the
Center for Disease Control.
The position of Surgeon General is one of critical
importance to the functioning of the government’s contribution to
the national health of this country. Think about this a moment.
For the Secretary of Defense there is an expectation the
person will be knowledgeable in military affairs. Les Aspin was
Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. That had the
potential at least whether or not it was fulfilled.
For Attorney General (were is her Admiral uniform?) we have
a rather tough lady who came from one of the larger and more
crime ridden counties in the country. I don’t know if that is
pro or con her abilities but it certainly gave her experience.
Now for the position that affects the health of the entire
country as much as the other two affect the defense and crime
level we have a political hack calling for safer guns and safer
bullets. Were either the Secretary of Defense or the Attorney
General to call for safer guns and safer bullets they would be
laughed out of any confirmation hearings. They would be
ridiculed in the press.
But what do we have in the most powerful and influential
health care position in this country? A nerf brain. Someone who
make Dan Quayle on his worst day look positively brilliant.
Joycelyn Elders is rapidly becoming a running joke. Sex
education starting in pre-school may or may not be a good idea
but when she opens her mouth on the subject it appears absolutely
absurd. She can not give a speech without providing Rush
Limbaugh with material for six shows. She is the Molly Yard of
health care.
And we have her all for our very own. Look back to that
fourth paragraph. Look at all she is responsible for running.
Think back to anything you can remember of C. Everett Koop and
compare that to the fool who is now in charge of all of those
agencies.
How can we allow an feather headed, back woods political
hack with an MD to have such responsibility? Who in the hell is
responsible for her?

Subject: ORPHANAGES & FOSTER CARE
Orphanages and Foster Care
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/19>
One of the outstanding efforts of deliberate mis-statement
(otherwise known as lies) by Democrats about the Newt Gingrich is
the one about orphanages. It is as though these “experts” in
what the children of the “poor” need think this is a new idea.
In fact it has been around for years.
The issue being addressed is an old one, the problems with
foster care. Good foster care families are few and far between.
Adequate one are scarce. Those no better and at times worse than
their own family are all too common.
The discussion is not to take a child from a parent because
they can not afford to care for the child. The discussion is
over the same reasons a child is removed from a parent today.
That the child is in danger of life and limb in the home.
This is only about a better and more reliable and readily
available place to put them when they are in danger. But to
listen to the liberals you would think it is a call to put every
child from a welfare family into an orphanage.
But then, when there is no substance it is necessary to make
up something about the children. And yes, an orphanage is better
than many of the “parents” some children are subjected to. They
are even better than the worst images that can be dredged up from
the Great Depression. And if you pay attention to the news for
the occasional foster care horror story it is better than some of
them also.
And why will they be better? If for no other reason than
inspections. Pick any number of inspections one person can do in
a week. Consolidation into group homes either reduces the number
of inspectors required or increases the frequency of inspections.
That is, states can better use limited personnel resources, doing
more with less and saving money.
In addition to that there are a myriad of federal
regulations regarding foster homes such that it appears the
government does not want anyone to go through the effort.
Additionally, a child can not stay in any one home very long so
they are constantly in a state of musical homes. The dollar
value is marginally the extra expense of the child.
The alternative that has been discussed for years is
precisely professional homes for these children, more commonly
called orphanages.
So in this blitz of deliberate misrepresentation the
liberals are condemning an idea that has been discussed by
professional social workers for years. I do not find that
strange. i find it exemplary of liberalism.
As to the cost, that will vary by state and by the region
within the state. Numbers as high as $36,000 have been put in
print with the presumption that if the mother (rarely are parents
plural mentioned) were given half that much, etc. etc, etc. The
heart bleeds as much over the misrepresentation as the creativity
of the story.
I do not doubt there is some place in this country that some
group home for children does in fact cost that much. More likely
such “homes” are more commonly referred to as institutions for
the retarded or seriously handicapped or the like.
I have not researched that. I simply reason by analogy in
that the average cost per year for prison inmates is $60,000. If
someone is going to try to make the point that it costs $36,000
or anything close then one is going to have to explain how group
eating and housing with wholesale purchases, using local schools
and medicaid, is going to cost more than an existing family can
afford.
There are always economies of scale for children. The more
you have the less they cost per child. Clothes are handed down.
Even if private medical care the insurance gets cheaper in the
same manner that group insurance is cheaper than single purchaser
insurance. There is no need for professional guards as in a
prison nor any major security system. So where do all these
imagined costs come from?
There is a chance that those costs are estimated or in fact
real based upon the teachers’ union are demanding the staff be
loaded with PhDs at some ratio per child. But when the
requirements are dropped by the federal government along with the
return of block grants it will be up to the states to decide if
they wish to kiss the teachers’ union’s collective ass.
In any event we have three deliberate misrepresentations.
The first is that Gingrich has proposed anything new. The second
is that it would apply as a normal alternative to the child
staying with the parent. And third the cost. I would say it is
par for the liberal course.

Subject: IT IS NOT YOURS TO GIVE
It is not yours go give
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/18>
The title is a line from a story related by Daniel Boone in
his autobiography or, as he said, by Himself. It the punch line
or the message a constituent gave Congressman Boone over money
voted by Congress to help a family in DC made destitute by a
fire. He objected that it was not Congress’s money to give.
As related Boone goes through the Christian, good deed,
compassionate responses, the “it only cost him a penny” argument
but they did not move the constituent. He held he had a contract
with the government and that it was the constitution. If it was
not in the constitution the government was not permitted to do
it. The money was not theirs to give.
Now comes the 104th Congress with exactly that spirit. The
people’s money is not their’s to give if it is not in the
constitution. Literally hundreds of “it only costs you pennies”
agencies, activities, functions of the government are on the
chopping block because it is not the government’s to give.
For the few real and primarily pseudo intellectuals the
one’s of interest are the Corporation for Public Broadcasting,
the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment
for the Humanities. Not surprisingly the whine is for the
“others” who benefit. The children will lose Barney. The
unwashed will not be able to afford the performing arts.
Unidentified others will not be able to afford the cost of
keeping a symphony orchestra in every city, a ballet company in
every neighborhood, a mime on every street corner.
The children will no longer be able to see the Purple
Pedophile. There is hardly a commercial network in the country
that would not jump at it being available. Given the promotional
and commercial tie-ins the Barney people could buy time and still
make a huge profit. And why would they focus on “for the
children” when we are really talking about such great national
priorities such as The Frugal Gourmet, Sit and Be Fit, 1001 and
one things to make from re-cycled low calorie snack food bags?
And they want the subsidies of orchestras and ballet
companies to continue so the poor can continue to pay only the
low balcony price of $35 a seat plus parking. A night at the
opera with the Marx Brothers might be worth that but for two
people plus parking and a couple beers in the lobby priced like
six packs you can get 6 CD versions of the same opera by the the
world’s greatest performances and stop it when you need a head
break. It isn’t the same thing but then, what price realism?
In other words, subsidies are only to preserve prices that
are already out of reach of those the pseudo intellectuals are
pretending they benefit.
But the issue is not whether there is any honesty in the
crocodile tears being shed. The issue is clearly that no place
in the United States Constitution does it demean itself to
authorizing the support of a dinosaur shaped like Rush Limbaugh
nor of your friendly, neighborhood mime. Even the most creative
constructionist would hold Barney would be a better instrument of
national defense by sending him in place of Jimmie Carter.
Besides, Geneva is already planning to outlaw Jimmie.
These three programs are only three drops in the bucket of
the malfeasance in office, the unconstitutional spending of the
federal government. Three drops are not much but remember, the
bucket is already overflowing. These three drops and all of the
rest of the drops are in line for zero funding if the president
will not go along with abolishing them entirely.
And those in line for the old zero funding trick often
applied to essential and constitutional defense projects by the
liberals are things like the extra-constitutional Department of
Agriculture. The Tennessee Valley Authority along with the Rural
Electrification Authority along with the Army Corp of Engineers
are on their way to the dustbin of unconstitutionality.
Social Security will eventually be phased out as sell you
and your employer a better deal without question and in fact
could not remain competitive without a much better deal than the
government offers. Where all the Social Security payments have
been squandered should be audited in great detail. The retired
should be receiving at least twice what they are receiving now
and the principle should be available for inheritance to the
children. Yes, the magnitude of the federal rip-off is that
great despite what you have heard.
The constitution is not a contract. The constitution is not
a list of suggestions. The constitution is a list of very
specific things the federal government is permitted to do and
none other. The penalty for exceeding those powers is
dissolution of the federal government. That it may occur
peacefully is to the benefit of the country.

Subject: CLINTON TAX CUT SAMPLER
[A Clinton Tax Cut sampler]
12/15/92
Economic Summit, taxes will have to be raised across
the board instead of the promised middle class tax cut.
Week of 5 January
Clinton reneges upon the middle class tax reduction because
the deficit is $82 billion less than he planned for.
Les Aspin during confirmation hearings as Secretary of
Defense holds that Clinton’s budget was unrealistically low and
offered as a campaign ploy.
14 January 1993
Clinton says he will continue the inhumane Bush policy of
returning Haitians to Haiti.
Rush Limbaugh TV show runs film clip of Clinton promising
middle class tax cut.
15 January 1993
CBS evening news run different film clip of Clinton
promising a middle class tax cut and clips of three other
promises now reneged upon.
24 January 1993
Les Aspin on Face the Nation says (for some reason) that the
middle class tax cut is looking less likely (apparently he
considered it a promise) due to the deficit continuing to be at a
level lower than Clinton planned for. He goes on to say that
there will be taxes on consumption and energy. This tones down
his confirmation hearing statement of the week of Jan 5 (above)
where he suggested it was just a vote getting promise.
25 January 1993
“I will never raise taxes on the middle class to pay for
these programs.” Rather than raise income taxes on the middle
class, Clinton now plans a tax on energy. You gets what you
votes for. This was admitted by Stephanopoulos today.
2.1.93
ABC Evening News
Plans are solidifying for a major tax increase and deficit
increase of at least 10%. The plans are for $30B in new spending
to “jump start an economy that has already started.
2.2.93
Clinton announces the middle class tax increase will be on
the order of $20-30B and will not reduce the deficit.
2.10.93
Town Hall meeting. Clinton says he can not rule out a tax
increase for the middle class. He suggests he could use smoke
and mirrors but then “in ten years twenty cents of every tax
dollar will be spent on the deficit.” [Presently 25 to 30 cents
of every tax dollar is being spent on the deficit.]
At the “Town Hall” on 2/10/93 he said “If people want to
invest in America [the phrase he used to describe his programs]
then there will have to be sacrifice.” Sacrifice of course
refering to higher taxes.
2.12.93
CNN runs back to back clips of Bush saying “when he says he
will not raise taxes on the middle class, watch your wallet” and
of Clinton discussing the planned increase in middle class taxes.
2.15.93
Clinton promotes is $160 Billion tax increase package.
2.20.93
Clinton radio address. “I will not raise taxes without
cutting spending.
On TV Clinton says, “No one, not even the 1.2% of the
population who are the only ones who will have their income rates
increased, should pay one penny in additional taxes without there
being spending cuts.”
3.23.93
Congress passes Clinton’s taxes on Social Security benefits.

Subject: END OF THE GAME
The End of the Game
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/21>
Maybe the 1994 election was not the end of fantasies about
the poor. Maybe it was not the end of wild imaginings about
social problems. It might have been the end of theory as opposed
to fact as the basis of law. It was the end of the pretention
that some human beings are really not human.
For three decades law has been based upon the presumption
that not only the poor but specifically blacks (“negras” to quote
LBJ who started it) are incapable of acting like responsible
human beings. The presumption of law has been that they are
bound by their past, that they are incapable of learning, that
they must be cared for like children by the government.
These “darkies” are just smiling, happy people who, without
hand outs from whites would do nothing but die of starvation in
the streets. They need to be kept like pets, fed by their
superiors and if turned out on their own would die because they
never learned to fend for themselves. Excuse me. Did I carry
the analogy too far?
There is no other basis for the presumption of the need for
welfare than their inability to care for themselves.
The worst of this presumption is that it is partially true.
The poor, regardless of the racial implication in the political
realm, literally are not able to deal with the modern world. The
social policies initiated by LBJ, Pox Be Upon Him, have assured
that an identifiable ethnic group will be created, the dregs of
the dregs will congregate.
The results is that we see today. But the means of dealing
with that is ending. Excuses are no longer being accepted. No
matter what was done to their ancestors an excuse for their
behavior. No longer is poverty an excuse for crime. No longer
is a single parent childhood an excuse for violence.
Those were never causes. They were never more than liberal
excuses for what was really happening. What was and is really
happening is that people who register negative on in Richter
Scale of IQ have been doing the best they can. They have been
trying. They are real human beings trying to follow the rules as
best they understand them.
What needs be done is to pass a law that the likes of Al
Sharpton are in criminal violation to exist. Liberal apologists
who refuse to hold their constituency to minimal standards of
decency need be declared enemies of all mankind. Anyone holding
a human being was forced to do anything by circumstances without
accountability needs be hoisted on their own pointy hat petard
and set down on it rather ungentlely.
It is about time these people were treated with respect
rather than the pretension that they are so incapable of self
respect that only government actions can give them respect.
Sure, there is some secret their entire income is from the
government. Maybe no one notices food stamps are not dollars.
People will now be given the chance to act like human beings
for the first time in 30 years. People will be permitted the
dignity of success or failure on their own. Ah, here comes the
liberal whine.
But if they can not the children will suffer. Children? Is
every indignity upon the parent justified by the children? Of
course it is, if you are a liberal. And when today’s children
are tomorrow’s parents at age 14 so too shall they be cared for
until the umpteenth generation.
The evil of this kind of system was recognized by LBJ, the
Poobah, and he and his VP Humphrey were against it. They had a
dream of ending poverty in America. They said so. They did not
have a dream of an eternal poverty class with eternal welfare.
They believed in an end to poverty as they said. They were
willing to commit the government to ending it once and for all in
a huge effort that created our current deficit and national debt.
At no time did they propose to pay one penny to the poor that
would not get them out of poverty.
There is no reason to presume they had any idea or intention
to pour money down the drain of any system that did not reduce
poverty with an eye to their goal of eliminating it. Yet despite
the evidence that began accumulating immediately the federal
welfare system has failed completely. And no liberal has been
willing to either admit that nor to agree to terminate the failed
programs.
Now there is a Congress that is willing to stop throwing
good money after bad. It is willing to end the pretention that
welfare makes the least difference. The game is over. Welfare
never worked. Welfare does not work now. There will be no
pretensions that it will work in the future.

Subject: ENVIRONMENTAL WHINES
Environmental Whines
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/21>
Comes now the 104th Congress that sees more evil than good
in environmental legislation. How sweet it is. A prime example
of unconstitutional rape and pillage of human rights comes up for
renewal during its session, the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
And the whining has just begun.
The pissing and moaning of the tree hugging, lion petting,
environment loving amputees has just started. Do you love the
sound of coyotes howling at the moon? You have heard nothing
until you hear the chorus of the Gaia lovers baying to the moon
goddess.
They are going to bring out their tarot cards, meditate on
their crystals, read the crumbs of their bran muffins and declare
the end of all life on earth because of Republicans.
Lets me use the ESA as an example not only of the
environmental movement but of the entire new political reality in
Washington. There are three possibilities; it is re-enacted as
is or strengthened, it is weakened, it is not renewed at all.
President Clinton has two possibilities, sign or veto.
In the first case he signs the same or a stronger bill and
the environmental folks praise Clinton and condemn the
Republicans. In the second case Clinton either goes along with a
weakened ESA or he ESA is not renewed. In the latter case
Clinton need not even bother with a veto.
Not only does the new political reality apply to reduced and
zero funding bills, it also applies to new laws and re-enactment
of old laws. Watering down a bill and not passing a bill make
the veto a useless presidential tool to powerful Republican tool.
Either the president agrees to modifying extra-constitutional
powers and laws of agencies or he vetoes and zero funds that
agency.
There is no law, no constitutional item, requiring funding
for an agency be separate from laws authorizing that agency. The
president can simply be sent a bill rescinding the assault
weapons ban and the funding for the BATF in the same bill. The
veto is powerless in that matter.
It would not be open to change by a line item veto either.
That applies to items on different subjects in the same bill. It
applies to a swimming pool in a Congressman’s district as part of
the Defense appropriation bill. It does not apply to directly
related items.
Thus we have a minimum two years hiatus on the travesties of
the nature worshippers are wont to work upon humans. It feels
good. Do you want to preserve nature? Inflate your beaver again
and carry it around the Capitol Building. It will get you a few
of your guaranteed fifteen minutes of fame, the outrage of your
fellow weak minds, maybe a few attempted panhandles from the
local bums.
And the mood of this Congress is not to throw a sop to the
conservatives in requiring an impact statement that wastes money
and can not fail to come down on the side of the mindless beasts
of the field. The mood is to eliminate completely what is not
liked.
It is simply a matter of priorities. The environment is not
a sacred mission. The environment is not holy. Putting people
first means human rights come first and that animals have no
rights. The environment has no rights.
There are no longer brain dead liberals in power to believe
the irrational claims of the imminent end of the world should a
dung eating beetle or a rat vanish from the face of the earth.
Ask any New Yorker. The extinction of cockroaches or the end of
human life on earth; it is a decision best left to Solomon. As
to why beetles never eat liberals is a question better left for
the next life but it would certainly put the average person on
the side of preserving the beetle.
But we have hardly heard the beginnings of the whining. In
fact you would have to have been paying attention to have heard
the beginning of the whining that will soon become a chorus of
whines around the country. In the next few months we will be
regaled with the most absurd public antics to make us aware of
the plight of some thing in the middle of no where that you would
crush with a rock if you found it inside your home.
The good news is that people will cease to be deprived of
liberty and property with or without due process for the sake of
something pictured on a can of RAID. The most rabid of the
whackos are going to declare war on the Republicans, call them
uncaring, heartless, enemies of mankind. Sane people will call
Republicans landslide material for their position.
The environmental movement is now a dead issue. Would it
have the grace to die quietly it would save them the indignity of
accepting less than they demand or getting nothing at all. It is
truly a delight to see the political influence of these nutcases
in the trashbin of American politics.

Ex-EF Members Achtungen sie mir or something like that.
Over the last three years I have run across several people
who I first met on The Elite Few, a local DC BBS that originated
as the “Religion and Politics”.
Many of us ex-participants are now scattered all over the
country. This message is an attempt to get the word to everyone.
It has finally upgraded (and under new management,
Kyle/Garnitz of Pedaler’s Palace) to having an off line reader.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvv
The new number is 1-703-237-0401. It still has its cantankerous
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
attitudes and automatic disregard of dumb messages.
Anyway, to everyone who was once there, you can at least
drop back and say hi.
To everyone, if you want to try a board that passively
discourages the low IQ types (they just go away) give it a call.

JH> MG> Nonsense. We do it all the time. Remember the case of the

Said child had the right to claim political asylum IF such
child were deemed competent to make such a decision by the
courts.
JH> MG> Precisely, but the child goes.
JH> Most (like 99.9%) of the time the parents will make that
JH> decision, yes.
And that is all that matters.
JH> MG> The real point is that one more requirement among many has
JH> MG> been placed upon state services and there is no over-riding
JH> MG> federal constitution consideration. Try earning $50,000 a
JH> MG> year and demanding welfare under the equal protection

JH> You are rearguing the case along the same lines which
JH> failed to win it years ago and which Prop 187 attempts to
JH> correct. You need to get into the spirit of what I am
JH> saying. Plant your tongue firmly in your cheek for
JH> starters… and keep reading.
The case was by Texas in 1982 was it was rejected on the
grounds that Texas had not demonstrated itself harmed as opposed
to potential harm of the law. The harm in California has been
fully documented as it has been in Florida.
Just yesterday 12/21 an appeals court rejected Florida’s
suit for $1.5 billion claiming it was political rather than
legal. Chiles has said he will take it to the Supreme Court.
Should they hold it is political then the state is free to
“politically” refuse state services as it is only a political
matter, neither legal nor constitutional.
JH> MG> Criminals are also limited in their rights in many ways
JH> MG> despite the equal protection clause. Simply finding an
JH> MG> illegal in this country is the discovery of a crime in
JH> MG> progress and can be treated in exactly the same manner as
JH> MG> discovery a burglar.
JH> I presented my case *VERY* poorly. I agree with the
JH> position that illegal aliens are criminals. But in an
JH> effort to preserve Prop 187 from a total gutting at the
JH> hands of the SC I think California must adopt the position
JH> I presented above even if it is tongue in cheek. To do any
JH> less is to risk having Prop 187 overturned as
JH> unconstitutional in the eyes of a revisionist court.
JH> JH> The real point of Prop 187 is (IMHO) that the Feds are
JH> JH> responsible for patrolling the borders and their failures
JH> JH> should not create a burden at the state level… or any
JH> JH> level for that matter.
If this is the position you mean I would easily overturn it
187. The federal government can not be sued to enforce its own
laws by individuals or by states. Once the courts are out of the
loop, the options are 1) for the individual, insurrection and 2)
for the states, secession.
That is in line with the first decision against Florida as
secession is a political matter.
JH> While I realize your position is to give no quarter, this
JH> is a case of 7/8ths of a loaf being better than none. I
JH> mean, how many parents will *REALLY* leave their children?
One goes into a political position prepared to negotiate but
such matters are carefully put on the table. One never goes into
a legal match with anything on the table. To a judge, anything
on the table is automatically lost and how much more is up to
him.
JH> Next we move to amend the Constitution to deny citizenship
JH> to those born to aliens illegally in our country.
This would not address the old Texas or new Florida cases.
Services must be denied to those who can not demonstrate
citizenship.

Over the years I have found the numbers to be honest BUT …
The dishonesty has been in the changing definition over the
years. Do you realize the latest change means that more people
will be surviving AIDS? The marker of being HIV+ was removed.
When that was a criteria or two or more ARC diseases as at first
were in place the few survivors were legendary.
But with this change there will be hope where there is no
hope as nothing will have changed to the real disease only to the
definition.
JH> MG> Whatever the current estimate it should be closer to the
JH> MG> lower number. The problem with rate is that we have barely
JH> MG> 10 years of reliable data upon which to base estimates. In
JH> MG> the last two the expected increase in real cases leveled
JH> MG> off drastically even though the political change in
JH> MG> definition should have increased the cases.
JH> Couched language, definition shifting, and the like have

JH> health care reform package. We’re looking at a cool 500
JH> billion and growing if the higher numbers above are real…
JH> and “only” 60 billion (and still growing) if the lower ones
JH> are used.
Reducing a projection does not change actual costs.
The cost of AIDS care is something that has to be rethought
in light of reality. The disease is like trying to treat bubonic
plague without anti-biotics. It is not treatable. All money is
wasted. Pain killers are the only rational expense and that is
out of compassion. If I were king I would prosecute AZT
prescribers as charlatans.
JH> MG> I am trying to get a handle on the new growth rate and have
JH> MG> been for months now. That is why I have been silent on the
JH> MG> subject for a while. When I get it I will be posting it.
JH> MG> I am certain it is much lower than the doubling per year
JH> MG> that was the trend.
JH> I suspect so also, since it is behaviorally related and the

Precisely the point. There are two approaches to wiping out
sleeping sickness in Africa. One is the best medical and
epidemological efforts we can finance. The other is shoes.

Subject: STRANGE JUSTICE A HOAX!
########## Original From: FRANK SULICK
# STOLEN # To: ALL

########## On: DOC’S – 0004 – Baychat
———————————————————————–
Today, <12-21-1994> Gordon Liddy had David Brock on his radio show as a
guest and the subject was to discuss the book “Strange Justice – The
Selling of Clarence Thomas” by Jane Mayer and Jill Abramson, both of
whom work as reporters for the Wall Street Journal.
David Brock is the author of the book, “The Real Anita Hill” and is an
investigative reporter.
Mr. Brock spent a month going through Strange Justice and while he was
at it, contacted many of the sources quoted by the authors Mayer and
Abramson.
As a result of his investigation, Mr. Brock concluded and made it quite
clear the book is a “HOAX” and a “LIE.” He said he found misleading,
false and erroneous statements on virtually every page and then went on
to sight several examples.
He contacted the owner of the video tape shop who supposedly said
Clarence Thomas rented porno tapes all the time. The owner told him
that this was not true and the quotes attributed to him in the book
Strange Justice is a lie.
The woman who supposedly said the walls of Thomas’ apartment was
“plastered with pin ups of scantily clad women” told Brock that she
never said any such thing. In fact when she was sent the galley proofs
of the book, she told the authors that she was quoted incorrectly.
<She had told them that she saw two pinups, then changed her story when
talking to Brock, that she had only seen one.>
Subsequently she received a revised set of galley proofs, quoting her
correctly. Later when she saw the book, the original and false quotes
were back in the book!
This woman claimed <to Brock> that she saw only one pinup in Thomas’
apartment….but subsequent investigation by Brock thoroughly
discredited this woman as totally unreliable. In any case, Thomas’ room
was NOT plastered with pinups as reported in the book.
Brock claims he checked out a great many of the allegations and their
sources in the book and found every one of them to be either false or
totally lacking in credibility!
Brock was asked about ABC’s role in jumping on the bandwagon when the
book Strange Justice was first published. He stated that evidently
ABC’s investigation to confirm the content of the book was superficial
and poorly done. In other words, ABC in effect gave the book credibilty
by interviewing the author’s on TV and did so without CHECKING THE
ACCURACY OF THE BOOK’S CONTENT!
Brock has sent a written copy of his findings to ABC television, the
President of ABC television, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times
and Peter Jennings…..he has also asked each of them for a meeting to
discuss his findings and thus far they haven’t responded.
Brock went on to say, a gigantic hoax has been perpetrated on the
American public and the book is nothing but lies!
Thus far he has been greeted with a vast silence from ABC, the Wall
Street Journal, New York Times and Jennings. Brock’s opinion is that
they are hoping it <he> will go away and this monstrous lie will stand.
He felt that what ABC and Jennings did in giving the book Strange
Justice so much TV coverage for two days was a form of political
correctness on their part!
His written findings are published in the current issue of the American
Spector, which is in the mail.
Weeks ago, Brock had invited Mayer and Abramson to meet with him and
discuss his findings in a public forum…..thus far they have not
returned his calls.
He mentioned that it is well known that most of the writers on the
Wall Street Journal are liberals whereas the editorial staff are
conservatives and for some time there has been a running “war” between
the two groups.
He did not know the motives of Mayer and Abramson in writing the book,
but it was obvious from his comments that they were intent on doing a
job on Judge Thomas. “They” couldn’t defeat Thomas’ nomination to the
Supreme Court, but possibly their motive was to put pressure on Judge
Thomas to be less of a conservative on the bench!
In retrospect, I’m sorry I didn’t tape the interview, since a trans-
cription of the radio program would have made excellent reading in this
conference….
I have a copy of the book Strange Justice, and I plan on putting a large
note on the cover page, “This book is a hoax and one big lie!”
It is also obvious that working for the Wall Street Journal doesn’t
prevent people like Mayer and Abramson from lying.
Frankly I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that they were fired from the
Wall Street Journal for this breech of journalistic integrity and
honesty! …..especially as the book Strange Justice gets the publicity
it so richly deserves…..namely that it is a hoax and a lie!

It is about IQ as a predicter of most all aspects of what is
considered to be success in our society. It is an excellent book
if the subject interests you. And if the subject does interest
you then you need to read it as it is going to be around for
years.
If you don’t really care, get on the waiting list at the
library.
The IQ difference by race is discussed primarily in chapter
13 and a bit in 14 out of twenty five or so chapters.
The information provided does offer a better explanation for
why certainly races are under and over represented in socially
negative areas than whites but it does not make any
representation as to such things being racial, only IQ related
and the subsequent subjects show it cuts across racial lines.

Not at all.
These findings are exactly contrary to both the liberal and
the conservative viewpoints. Both sides have held that people
can improve their lot in life. They have simply proposed
different means.
Carrying the book to its logical conclusion there is nothing
we can do for them according to either prescription. They are
not going to either change or improve. The further society
segregates by IQ the further behind they are going to be left.
And that means the less able to earn a living they are going
to be. The less able to be productive or the contribute they are
going to be.
Keeping that in mind, instilling the work ethic is not going
to do them a bit of good as there is very little work they are
capable of.
Neither Head Start nor nutrition programs nor job training
is not going to do them a bit of good as IQ is primarily
heritable — at least more consistantly heritable than anything
else.
So what are we going to do in light of the simple fact that
other than, as the authors propose, simplifying the rest of
society to accommodate them no one has any idea what to do.
The book belongs on the shelf of those who are willing to
look for new solutions now that we know none of the old solutions
will work.

Rethinking the Surgeon General
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994
A question occured to me some days ago. What is the
function of the Surgeon General? From what we see lately it is
to appear in public and say stupid things. But even going back
to the C. Everett Koop days what was he doing other than
appearing in uniform?
A lot of help from my friends has uncovered some details.
It appears the Surgeon General is the head of the United States
Public Health Service. OK, lets have a show of hands. How many
people have heard of the US Public Health Service? I don’t see
many hands.
Lets do a little history first. It began as the Marine
Hospital Service in 1798 providing medical relief to merchant
seamen and continued to 1902 in that capacity. That explains why
a General would wear an Admiral’s uniform. But that is history.
Today the Surgeon General is in charge of the National
Institute of Health, the Food and Drug Administration, the Health
Resources Administration, the Health Services Administration, the
Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration, and the
Center for Disease Control.
The position of Surgeon General is one of critical
importance to the functioning of the government’s contribution to
the national health of this country. Think about this a moment.
For the Secretary of Defense there is an expectation the
person will be knowledgeable in military affairs. Les Aspin was
Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. That had the
potential at least whether or not it was fulfilled.
For Attorney General (were is her Admiral uniform?) we have
a rather tough lady who came from one of the larger and more
crime ridden counties in the country. I don’t know if that is
pro or con her abilities but it certainly gave her experience.
Now for the position that affects the health of the entire
country as much as the other two affect the defense and crime
level we have a political hack calling for safer guns and safer
bullets. Were either the Secretary of Defense or the Attorney
General to call for safer guns and safer bullets they would be
laughed out of any confirmation hearings. They would be
ridiculed in the press.
But what do we have in the most powerful and influential
health care position in this country? A nerf brain. Someone who
make Dan Quayle on his worst day look positively brilliant.
Joycelyn Elders is rapidly becoming a running joke. Sex
education starting in pre-school may or may not be a good idea
but when she opens her mouth on the subject it appears absolutely
absurd. She can not give a speech without providing Rush
Limbaugh with material for six shows. She is the Molly Yard of
health care.
And we have her all for our very own. Look back to that
fourth paragraph. Look at all she is responsible for running.
Think back to anything you can remember of C. Everett Koop and
compare that to the fool who is now in charge of all of those
agencies.
How can we allow an feather headed, back woods political
hack with an MD to have such responsibility? Who in the hell is
responsible for her?

I have heard of other suggested sites (hell, the only one

Yogi would object.)
Economics is more than just the heat source as you have
noted in the corrosion problem. Ship builders all over the world
have been trying to beat the problem since there were ironclads.
It is doubtful that an interest in geothermal power is going to
lead to a breakthrough.
Other economic problems include location. Transmitting
power is lossy. The further it is from the user the less
valuable it is.
If you look at the history of power production the higher
the technology required to produce it the higher the payoff.
Coal was easy, dig it out and carry it away and coal could be
used to aid in the mining and in the trains to carry it away.
Oil was a bit harder needing drilling and cracking technology.
Nuclear took 35 years to solve the engineering problems and still
hasn’t cracked the political problems.
But the promise of each was successively greater.
Geothermal, solar, wind, tidal, none of them offer the payoff for
the investment in technology needed to make use of them.

Subject: OUR PRECIOUS WETLANDS
Our Precious Wetlands
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/26>
Over Christmas I was treated to an environmentalist’s
delight, I was given the gift of nature, car trip from Tampa to
Miami and return by a different route through the large and most
precious land in the United States, the Everglades. The Bald
Eagle is the national bird, this is the national swamp. The US
has a certain innocent cleverness in picking its symbols, a
carrion eater and a mud flat.
It is impossible to describe the sense of grandeur I
experienced in two 100 mile crossings of this national weed
patch. Where else could I see a hundred miles of ten foot high
chain link fence? Where else could ninety five miles of the view
of this glorious scenery be blocked by scrub growth on the other
side of the fence? Where else could there be a toll at both ends
with no way to get on the road in the middle?
But then I did have a chance to see unspoiled nature through
those infrequent breaks in the scrub trees. I have to admit it
was enlightening. What it took nature a million years to
accomplish I can do to my lawn in three months. Never contract
with Mother Nature without a severe late delivery penalty.
I did see a lot of wildlife or rather wilddeath. There was
an interesting sampling of roadkill despite the fence. One has
to wonder at the wisdom of a ten foot high fence when the largest
animal is the non-arboreal alligator and the rest can tunnel
under it. A relative of the governor must have gotten the
contract.
We didn’t stop to see if any of the roadkill was on the
endangered species list or if any of these were the last of the
species. I would have enjoyed notifying the EPA.
Dear EPA,
Greetings. One of your species has died. My
condolences to the department that gets laid off.
They could perhaps join the Agriculture Department staff who
get laid off with their farmer dies and the IRS people who want
to claim $6 million in taxes on the estate of a dead child from a
lawsuit that has not been won much less paid.
It is that kind of thinking that keeps a million square
miles of swamp as swamp.
And there is another problem. If you want to experience a
swamp, rent a movie. Everglades has no character at all. No
producer of a classic creeping horror monster movie would ever
consider using this as a location. Even Swampthing would not be
caught dead there.
Do want creepy sounds in the night? The only sign of animal
life was flocks of identical white birds. Was there a menacing
gator ready to attack the good guy and be tricked into eating the
bad guy? The nearest I got to a gator was billboards for the
endangered Florida industry of show both tourists and natives
alligators in the only places they might ever see one.
Don’t miss Gatorama!
Last chance to see Gator Wrestling! (Presumably it is like
mud wrestling but without the appeal of sex unless one is very
perverted.)
Genuine Indian mocassins and alligators! (The mind boggles
at the possibilities with that combination.)
The only civilized place to see real Florida Gators is in a
football stadium with overpriced beer while giving out civilized
screams and generally acting like a civilized madman.
In addition to not seeing alligators, I did see any
environmentalists out there wading through the much bare ass
naked. I don’t know who was enjoying this public health hazard
and legal nuisance this day. The traffic was moving as fast as
the occasional smokey would permit and there were no places to
stop in any event.
My impression of the first leg of the trip was that
environmentalist have the concepts of majesty, grandeur and
unspoiled confused with boring, uneventful and undifferentiated.
The return leg was only partly through the national swamp
and then through a more than equal stretch of cattle, sugar cane
and vegetable country. There must be some preservationist
instinct as they view didn’t change much until we got to Belle
Glade, home of the mosquitoes-got-AIDS urban legend. Although it
was a cut above the swamp only an environmental purist could
object to its presence. It did not spoil much of the natural
swamp.
After hundreds of miles of the natural ugliness of saw grass
I could not find it in my heart to consider sugar cane any less
ugly. It was simply better organized. Where nature appears to
like patches of fierce competition, man appears to like spreading
the wealth for all plants, perhaps a primordial tendency towards
Marxism is being manifest. In any event, they are applying it to
the highest form of life it can benefit.
Along the way was the Cypress Knee museum. This is a
private museam founded by a mid twentieth century fruitcake who
found spiritual meaning in the shape of the roots of cypress
trees. Even this museum, nobly dedicated to cutting off and
preserving the roots of cypress trees, could not resist catering
to the nature lovers. “Take a walk through the Everglades!” It
did advertise that the walk was on catwalks above the swamp.
Getting too close nature can be hazardous to your love of it.
Perhaps I did not see the real swamp. After all just a few
years ago the delicate balance was blown to hell and gone by
hurricane Andrew. Like God and Noah, Gaia appears regularly
disgusted with its creations. Andrew was able to get rid of
Homestead Air Force Base but had no luck in getting rid of this
ugliest of its creations.
The experience was part of my Christmas gift. I now can
speak from authority, the wonders of nature are best seen on TV.
My only regret is that I did not bring a camera to preserve these
miles and miles of miles and miles. It is truly worth preserving
for our children; who knows when they may cease to appreciate
what Hollywood adds to the mystique of nature and need to brought
up short with a boring drive through the real thing?
The Everglades are the real Florida. Making it a national
park has spared untold thousands from prison. It used to be a
felony to sell this kind of land to the unspecting. Perhaps some
day man, in his wisdom, will make it a felony let weeds grow like
this.

Subject: AMERICAN DREAM CONTRACT
Don’t Swallow the Fifth
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/27>
And this is the fifth in the House Republican Contract with
America.
5. THE AMERICAN DREAM RESTORATION ACT
A $500 per child tax credit, begin repeal of the marriage tax
penalty, and creation of American Dream Savings Accounts to
provide middle class tax relief.
And what is wrong with it? It and anything like it by
either party holds there are different classes of citizens which
have unequal merit in keeping their own money rather than having
it taken in taxes. It means the more children you have the more
right you have to your own money. It means if you save for the
things the government approves of you have a right to keep more
of your own money. This is barely different from the class
warfare of the Democrats for the last forty years.
The only acceptable part is one more attempt to correct for
the tax situation of the married. This occurs every ten to
fifteen years and each time it goes too far in the other
direction. Good luck getting it right this time.
This meddling is a symptom of the entire income tax system
itself. Its inequities are legion and can not be solved by a
tweak here and a fine tuning there no matter how politically
favorable. Obviously allowing tax payers to keep more of their
own money simply because their children are still at home
indicates they have not dealt with children who have only
recently left home and who are like a boat, a hole in the water
to dump money into.
What is the encouragement? To keep the kids in commuter
colleges and for them to live at home afterwards for as long as
possible? Is there an age cut for the children? Is there any
rational basis for the age that is related to the expense?
Ask any grandparent if the deduction should not be lifelong
and apply to grandchildren. In fact it establishes classes of
people, not only breeders and non-breeders but those who
hornswaggle their kids to stay at home if it extends past 18 or
those who do not if it does not. And if their kids missed a
grade or were born on the cusp of “too young” to start
kindergarten then they have nineteen year old or older and
non-deductible children as seniors or less in high school.
It this too complex to deal with in tax law? Yes. Should
there be such tax laws? Hell no.
The American Dream part of it is also in question. The
details are not out but the “American dream” has always been
portrayed as home ownership, sending the kids to college in
addition to a comfortable retirement. Again the complications
arise.
Home ownership? Why? Given the variations upon the tax law
in a particular year living rather than renting out the house you
own is not the best tax decision. But then what if one lives in
the house for one night and decides to rent it out? The Dream
has been fulfilled for one night.
Sending the kids to college sounds good. But any estate
counselor will tell you that such money should have options to
cover the kids not going to college and the equivalent amount
should have a disbursal for the first home or simply a cash
payment. Are these options not to be covered?
Shall the government twist the income tax code one more time
to say post high school (college or trade school or whatever) one
more time to encourage it else nothing? Once the lump sum
disbursement for the first home is permitted then all the other
options of estate planners are included. At that point the tax
code is deciding if estate planning for the family cat is tax
free.
The only correct position is either the abolition of the
income tax or a flat income tax, preferably the former. With a
consumption tax the government can profit from all necessary
purchases. Even with this it perverts revenue raising by special
taxes upon sin. This must go also.
When the flat income tax is declared a failure along with
the marxist progressive income tax we currently have then the
consumption tax must also be flat. There can be no
differentiation upon what is sold.
Special alcohol and tobacco and luxury taxes must vanish for
there to be any validity to any of our governments at any level.
The government was not constituted as a body to regulate the
people who constituted it nor to modify their behavior in any
manner other than criminal matters.
We have granted our governments the power to raise revenue
for their own existence. We did not grant governments the power
to influence behavior by increasing or decreasing taxes on items
and activities.
It is not rational that alcohol, tobacco, full automatic
weapons and marijuana can be discouraged by high taxes while
pollution must be prohibited as an ultimate evil.
It is not rational that home ownership should be encouraged
by tax laws where it would not otherwise be a rational economic
decision.
If these are in the interests of the people then the people
can best determine their own interests. If these are in the
interests of the government then the government is not the people
and they encouragement is only to raise greater revenues or to
increase the power of the government. As I do not accept elected
officials are endowed with the wisdom to decide for the people I
can not accept they are qualified to make decisions for me or
anyone else regarding private life decisions, much less the
course of history.
The tax system has to go to a financially and morally
neutral position before we can have a system of government that
deals only with the necessary powers of government and none
other. It will be a long time coming. It is the alternative to
our constitutionally limited tyranny.

Subject: CAPITAL GAINS
Who gains Capital?
by
Matt Giwer (c) 1994 <12/27>
Changing the capital gains cut is one of the most
deliberately misunderstood proposals of the 104th Congress and as
usual solely for the purpose of promoting different classes of
citizens.
8. THE JOB CREATION AND WAGE ENHANCEMENT ACT
Small business incentives, capital gains cut and indexation,
neutral cost recovery, risk assessment/cost/benefit analysis,
strengthening the Regulatory Flexibility Act and unfunded mandate
reform to create jobs and raise worker wages.
At present capital gains are taxed at the same rate as
ordinary income. Investments are not indexed for inflation as
are the tax brackets we all deal with. As there is no tax that
is fair let me discuss whether this tax is reasonable.
Way back when during the wild inflation of the 1970s the
country had enough of what was called then bracket creep. We had
a steeply graduated income tax, people were getting raises into a
higher tax bracket but because of inflation they were losing
their standard of living because of higher taxes.
The same has been true of the capital gains tax. The most
common example is your parents put down $1000 dollars on their
$5,000 dream house in the 1950s. Came the 1980s and it was worth
$100,000 and their down payment, their capital investment was
presumably worth twenty times more also, or $20,000. Were they
permitted to exclude $19,000 from taxes? Is the bear Catholic?
Of course not. A more basic question regards the $5,000
house. Was the $100,000 selling price indexed to inflation over
those years? Does the Pope … never mind. We all know that
would never happen in a Democrat controlled House.
So what was done? One more quirk was introduced into the
tax laws, a one time, lifetime exemption for cashing out on a
home purchase. Why? Because failure to index for inflation was
considered wrong.
Why then is failure to index right for anyone else? Is
right and wrong based upon “to each according to his needs”
simply because our parents are old, they are a voting block and
belong to AARP?
Many countries thrive with no capital gains tax at all. Our
two greatest economic competitors, Japan and Germany do not have
a capital gains tax. The lack of it does not appear to harm them
in the least.
From another view point, if there is a capital gains tax why
is there not a capital loss tax credit? There sort of is but
only if your losses are less than your gains. If your losses are
more than your gains the IRS does not want to read sob stories on
a 1040 form so don’t waste their time.
The above might be fine for a professional investor but when
you take all the risk and when you work thirty hours a day ten
days a week making a profit, the government wants a piece of your
action. But if you go broke they do not want to hear about it.
OK, does that stir your marxist heart to a callous disregard
for the exploiting capitalist? The real and most common case was
in the last few years. People put down their money on a home,
the economy turned sour and the value of their home went down
hill. They had to sell at a loss but they searched in vain for
line on the 1040 to deduct that loss. That does not even go into
the negative inflation value of that loss.
But then why should Microsoft shareholders avoid capital
gains taxes when they sell their stock? Tell me, who would have
given them a tax break had Microsoft gone the way of hundreds of
other losers in the early days of computers. Consider the
investors in Apple who took a flyer and a very great risk on two
admitted, plea copping non-felons whose previous business history
was selling the hardware to steal long distance phone time.
Dear Uncle Sam,
I lost $100,000 investing with these two garage shop
computer nerds with a questionable legal history. Please deduct
this from my taxes payable.
That and a little more chutzpah will get you three years for
tax evasion.
But the real question comes down to the day to day investor.
The person who has capital gains every day. They need be taxed.
But then who is going to do the investing to make up for the
money lost to taxes? If the average investor is only able to
break even then taking 23% per year means that in five tax years
there is nothing left to invest. So where is investment money to
come from? The tax collecting government? Pigs are yet to be
flying and hell is still well above the freezing point of water.
We have gained nothing from this capital gains tax. The
failure to index it along with ordinary income means we are
taxing inflation. Taxing gains in the first place means we are
penalizing investment.
It means we are not very bright as a county.
