Individual Freedom Requires High Demands on Morals, Ethics and Integrity

It is of deep concern to me that the individual freedom in the US seems threatened on several fronts. Because of federal and local authorities regulations and controlling hunger and also by the corporations growing into monopolies.

This individual freedom which historically has been most abundant in the US is definitely threatened. And its the very backbone of the American Dream which has created the American success as the World’s most innovative and creative nation the last 150 years. If it should get lost: USA will get lost.

Because people when they feel safely embedded in comprehensive individual freedom they get creative. The fear of failing gets minimized. 

So a certain amount of individual freedom is absolutely crucial to get it going.

In our more and more complex and complicated society; its neede a very fine tuned administration to be able to do the tightrope balancing necessary to pull that off. 

Additionally it it puts high demands on the individuals themselves. To their morals, ethics and integrity..

Unfortunately it seems that lack of these has tragically deteriorated the last 40 years. And attitudes of selfishness and greed have become driving forces in the society.

 

 

Unjustified health scares create trillion dollars industries in the US.

I have serious doubts about the sleep apnea theories claiming its causing heart failure and other serious health problems. It is NOT empirically and clinically proven. They’re all based  on interpretations of statistics with a blind eye towards the very plausible possibility of plain coincidental cooccurrences without any direct connections.

Why should altering your heartbeat rhythm be life threatening when you sleep, when its concluded healthy and life prolonging when you are awake working out or doing sports. The sleep apnea problematics is especially emphasized in the US. I suspect that the healthcare industry, which is a multi trillion dollar industry in the US and is dependent on selling their services, medicines and equipment. Wants to create dependency and addictions to milk the patients for huge sums.

With millions upon millions treated for sleep apnea in the US. It has absolutely zero effect on the major cause of death; heart disease. Which is actually growing year by year.

 USA crippled by medical debt.

But the sickest of all the negative features cracking through the fake facade of

the wealthy US, is the barely fathomable +-150 million people

struggling with medical debts. In an advanced nation with ambitions of being among the leading nations in the World is this a despicable disgrace. Which over time will cause tremendous backlash.

Much more effective than issuing out stimulus checks would it be to come up with a program for debt amnesties for these peoples, quick and clean. Its an absolutely must for the American society to take care of this in order to succeed building a bright and wealthy future.

As all the nations US compete with offers their inhabitants some kind of more or less free healthcare its easy to imagine the outcome if the US wont.

 

Watching the USA destructing itself.

Trump unleashed the demons into the American people. The hatred and dishonesty is worse than ever. My Asian wife Who is born American gets racial slurs hauled after her on the streets. Nobody looks up to The US and the American people anymore.

Empathy and compassion seems more or less eradicated ordinary people inbetween.

In the Republican Party virtues like honesty, honorability, independence and integrity are totally abandoned. Replaced with Corruption, DIshonesty, Aggressiveness, fraudulence, vulgarity,, nastiness, rudeness, greed, selfishness and egotripping . Not at all recognisable from just a few years back.

The tremendous spike in violence, hatred and racism throughout the country is just plain terrifying, with mass shootings almost every day. Rips the whole nation apart. Its a disgrace. The rest of the World is following the development.

Let’s just face it: A lot of Americans are not mentally equipped to handle a second Amendment. That goes not only for the shooters themselves, but also for the enticing and inflaming. politicians.

 Fox Corporation

Trump and Trumpism's

hired Propaganda-machine.

The Americans’ favourite pass off time is to be scared. All the way back since Orson Wells’ famous Radio Shows people have enjoyed being scared at Cinema, on the radio, on TV, even in the Newspapers and now lately on the Social Media. It has been a huge market for SCARE. And the Murdochs run Fox News and their other outlets have recognized this as their absolute main market; serving scares in the form of news to the public. For some reason that recipe works in The US every time. Fox News has become an expert on the field. Presenting News half true, somewhat twisted and even totally false. Made up to plant a conspiracy theories to get people on the edge. The last 5 years they have had a deal going on with Trump. To help present whatever lunatic paranoid fantasy his insane brain could cook. They would cook it with him presenting it as News and Truth.So when the Murdochs put their entire US Broadcasting Corporation behind the spreading of Trump brain spin. It became a frighteningly effective Propaganda-machine. And this was a task they knew how to go about. It was far from their first rodeo in the American Society. Pretty soon they had managed to deceive +-30% of the entire population, seducing, scaring shitless or in most cases a combination of both.

It is a Glamour Economy.

It is a Flash Glamour Economy without substance. Just like Trump's former Casinos it will go down in disaster just like them.

I am getting this hunch that the economy is rigged right now. There is absolutely no common reason for the markets to be all time high. The numbers seems to be a bit cooked. And are overall really not that good. Except for the one-percenters that are playing the market..

A GDP between 1 and 2% is nothing to brag about. That’s practically a stand still. With an inflaton rate above 2% and a salary rise at just 0.2% gives NO hike in the income for the average American. 

And when you consider the federal deficits that is unimaginably colossal under Trump. That will come back to haunt us all sometime in the near future. Then you feel more like screaming for the anti-depressants, than to listen to nauseated bragging. 

Recession is comming.

Us that have been around a little while, and have lived through all the economic crisis and recessions since WW2, knows that just the hours or just days ahead of when they become stated facts, The Feds and other “economic heavyweights” held mandatory speeches aimed to lull us into the belief that it’s not happening now. I think we just witnessed that session just now taking place in  Zurich.

Cause the numbers tells us loud and clear; that a recession is on its way. The job numbers and the orders for manufactured goods does NOT look good when you breake them down. Absolutely nothing to cheer for.
