  "The right to contract is fundamental and includes the privilege of selecting those with whom one is willing to assume contractual relations.   This right is unduly abridged by the act now upheld.   A private owner is deprived of power to manage his own property by freely selecting those to whom his manufacturing operations are to be entrusted.   We think this cannot lawfuly be done in circumstances like those here disclosed.   It seems clear to us that congress has transcended the powers granted." --- George Sutherland dissent in NLRB v Jones & Laughlin Steel 301 US 1 (1937-04-12) (quoted in Jim Powell 2003 _FDR's Folly_ pg214)

  "In vain did business representatives, like Samuel W. Rayburn of the National Retail Dry Goods Association, warn that by increasing the cost of employing people, pay-roll [Socialist Insecurity] taxes would contribute to high unemployment.     'Whatever tax you make is going to increase their expenses.', he said.     Lloyd peck, general manager of the National Laundryowners Association, explained, 'The burden proposed for employers to carry, through a pay-roll tax, will act as a definite curb on business expansion, and will likely eliminate many businesses now on the verge of bankruptcy.     We contend that the portion of the burden to be carried by employees will further curtail their purchasing power, thereby increasing their difficulties in meeting their actual living expenses.     Therefore, his proposed [socialist insecurity] legislation will stifle recovery forces now at work and increase unemployment.'     James Emery, of the National Association of Manufacturers, added, 'If you increase the cost of employment and men, the tendency is to employ a machine which would be less expensive and which would not subject you immediately to the tax... it would be a tendency in industries where the labor cost is high...     Generally recovery depends on our ability to enlarge our production, to employ more people, and to cut down and not raise up the price of goods.     Every time we increase the price of goods in a diminishing market, we are diminishing the possibility of employing other men, because we are making it more difficult, not less, to sell goods.     Until we an market goods, we annot employ more men.'" --- Jim Powell 2003 _FDR's Folly_ pp180-181 (citing testimony of Samuel W. Reyburn pg762 http://www.ssa.gov/history/pdf/hr35reyburn.pdf; testimony of Lloyd Peck 1935 to the senate finance committee pg918; testimony of Jams Emery 1935-01-21 pp1033, 1036 http://www.ssa.gov/history/pdf/hr35emery.pdf)

  "Tax historian Sidney Ratner observed, 'The AAA of 1933-05-12, and its substitutes, the Soil Conservation Act of 1936-02-29, and the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938-02-16, were instrumentalities for subsidizing agricultural land-lords and commercial farmers through taxes on the rest of the community.'   Brain truster [Guy Rexford Tugwell] later acknowledged that it benefited only about 20% of American farmers, primarily, as noted, big commercial farmers.   Tugwell was aware that the AAA made share-croppers and tenant farmers worse off." --- Jim Powell 2003 _FDR's Folly_ pg139   (citing Sidney Ratner 1980 _Taxation and Democracy in America_ pg454;   Guy Rexford Tugwell 1947 _The Stricken Land: The Story of Puerto Rico_ pg24)

the peculiar thing missing from indictment of Dem/Red/Leftist "IT" crew from Pakistan: no mention of them fleeing the country with the money; was black-mail involved? what of info abuses? why are dates in indictment so unusually limiting?
National Review
"...By the way, the USA attorney's office is currently led by Channing D. Phillips, an [Obummer] hold-over who was never confirmed.   Still awaiting Senate confirmation is Jessie Liu, nominated by president Trump in June.   Meanwhile, Steven Wasserman, representative Wasserman Schultz's brother, has been an assistant USA attorney in the office for many years.   I have seen no indication that he has any formal role in the case, notwithstanding some cyberspace speculation to the contrary.   What is clear, however, is that the office is low-keying the Awan prosecution.   The indictment itself is drawn very narrowly.   All four charges flow from a financial-fraud conspiracy of short duration.   Only Imran Awan and his wife are named as defendants.   There is no reference to Awan-family perfidy in connection with the House communications system..."

unethical Alphabet/Google/YouTube demonitized 900 of my videos
"It all happened in the course of one night, and it happened quite suddenly.   Last Thursday night, I noticed that YouTube demonetized my interview with a former KKK Grand Dragon who is now an associate pastor in an African-American church, claiming it was 'Not suitable for all advertisers'.   Why wouldn't it be? It was a great, positive, redemptive story, one the whole world should hear.   Why flag it?   The demonetizing of this video was the first thing that got my attention, but I thought to myself, 'It's probably because it has KKK in the title.' &nbps; For months now, we had noticed that almost any video we had with 'Islam' in the title would get demonetized.   But when we would request a review from YouTube, some of the videos would get reinstated...   Literally, in front of my eyes, I watched the pages grow -- from 2 pages, to 5, to 7, to 10, to 15, to 20, to, 32 pages, each with 30 videos -- so, more than 900 videos.   It wasn't individual videos being flagged.   It was our account that was flagged.   Suddenly, the vast majority of our videos had been demonetized since the content was ostensibly too controversial.   We're talking about videos like:   'Part 1: Sarah from Brooklyn', where an 88-year-old Orthodox Jewish woman shares her delight in discovering my radio show (sounds pretty ominous, no?).   'Some Redemptive Thoughts on Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman', discussing how we could overcome racial divisions (yes, this is surely unsuitable for advertisers).   'Caller Disagrees With Dr. Brown About The Nature of Atonement' (obviously, a call like this will provoke hatred and violence).   'Does God Pray?' (notice, nothing here about Islam, LGBT issues, or politics; nothing controversial at all other than a discussion of an interesting Jewish tradition).   'Lee Strobel Shares His Testimony' (yes, the same Lee Strobel whose testimony was enshrined in the 'Case for Christ' movie; how dangerous! [according to unethical Alphabet/Google/YouTube whackadoodles]).   Debates I had with rabbis were flagged; powerful stories, like a Muslim woman being healed by Jesus, were flagged; videos where I answered questions like, 'Should Christians Homeschool Their Children?' or 'Did Jesus Claim to Be God?' were flagged, along with videos of spiritual encouragement (like the one encouraging believers to look to the Lord in the midst of chaos)..."

  "As Kiniyasu Sakai, an Osaka entrepreneur who owns several such smaller industrial companies, explains: 'industrial companies are not what they appear to be. They do not develop their own product line, nor do they manufacture it. In reality these huge businesses are more like trading companies. That is, rather than design and manufacture their own goods, they actually co-ordinate a complex design and manufacturing proess that involves thousands of small companies.'" --- Joel Kotkin 1992 _Tribes: How Race, Religion, and Identity Determine Success in the New Global Economy_ pp146-147 (citing Kiniyasu Sakai 1990 November-December "The Feudal World of Japanese Manufacturing" _Harvard Business Review_ pg39)

  "As [David Director Friedman suggested 1988 in _The Misunderstood Miracle_], such small company-dominated networks provided the critical edge for Japan in its competition with the traditional Western industrial powers. Between 1954 and 1977 the number of manufacturing fiirms in Japan with less than 300 employees grew from 430K to 720K, while the number of such companies in the United States remained relatively stagnant. Indeed, as Japan's industrial economy soared, the size of its production units actually fell, and by teh late 1980s their share of Japan's industrial value added rose to a level over 50% greater than their American counterparts. These smaller firms provided an essential element in helping Japan's large companies, such as auto-makers, achieve great flexibility and in particular in ability to modify products quickly. Able to buy roughly 70% to 80% of their parts from outside suppliers, more than twice the percentage for GM, large Japanese car companies have been able to maintain relatively small and lean operations." --- Joel Kotkin 1992 _Tribes: How Race, Religion, and Identity Determine Success in the New Global Economy_ pg146 (citing _The Misunderstood Miracle_ pp6-13; James Risen 1990-01-17 "Tight Network of Suppliers Provides Key Support for Japan's Auto Makers" _Los Angeles Times_)

  There is a hierarchy of deceptions. Near the bottom of the ladder is journalism: a steady stream of irresponsible distortions that most people find refreshing although on the morning after, or at least within a week, it will be stale and flat. On a higher level we find fictions that men eagerly believe, regardless of the evidence, because they gratify some wish." --- Martin Buber (Jewish World Review)

advancing Trump voter agenda now that Stephen Bannon is not in the White House
"...Americans who had been left out of politics for 30 years -- ignored, taken for granted, lied to, used and abused.   They were people whose interests were forgotten because they didn't protest and sneer at [the USA].   They just worked hard, raised nice families, went to church and helped others in need.   They were people who believed in the Constitution and doing what's right.   They served in the military.   They didn't ask for hand-outs or bail-outs from government...   Build a wall -- what could be simpler and more logical?   Stop the refugee flow from terror-supporting nations -- could there be an idea more sensible?   Scale back regulations on businesses so they would hire more Americans rather than leave the country.   Make American Great Again.   Make our cities safe.   Put America first.   Rebuild crumbing infrastructures without padding the pockets of political cronies.   Don't start wars you can't win.   Speak the truth despite the heckling it will always prompt.   Steve Bannon recognized the great opportunity this common-sense businessman represented to the future of our country..."

Trump agenda of building up
"...My dad was a modestly successful general contractor.   He built small commercial buildings like grocery stores and affordable housing.   He could have built more.   'Old age and smashed feet' didn't stop him.   The city's inspection process finally did.   It was always a problem.   He might have to sit around for days waiting for an inspector to deign to show up.   Then the inspector could red flag a project just because he was having a bad day or felt disrespected.   So a man who built sound, durable buildings -- who could and sometimes did do everything from surveying the land to digging the foundation to finishing the roof -- whose livelihood was at risk if he did a bad job -- was at the mercy of a government employee who might not know how to hold a hammer or even know the rules he was enforcing.   It got worse and worse.   Only the big guys who could afford lawyers and accountants, and who had 'connections', could stay in business.   Houses got more and more expensive.   And the quality got worse, not better.   Most are now thrown together with sticks and stucco.   Big projects are far worse.   The USA will never regain dominance in nuclear energy without a massive overhaul of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.   A plant that is built in two years in Taiwan can't even get a permit in less than 10 years here.   And that's for a plant that is exactly the same as ones that have been functioning flawlessly for decades.   If you have a really innovative design, one that would be even safer, it takes more than three years for bureaucrats to evaluate the proposal.   Meanwhile, you can't even build a prototype.   It's like this for all industries here, including medicine..."

  "The pressure on the McKinley administration to take some action in Cuba was not manufactured by publishers looking for a war to sell newspapers.   It was the product of Cuban reality and American outrage over actual human suffering... Adding to the urgency, American officials and politicians learned from consular dispatches that among the starving in Cuba were some 800 American citizens." --- Robert Kagan 2007 _Dangerous Nation: America's Foreign Policy from Its Earliest Days to the Dawn of the 20th Century_ pp390-392

  "A system of n classical bits gives 2n different possible bit strings.   But a system of 2 or 3 classical bits will form only 1 of these bit strings at a time.   In a system consisting of 2 or 3 qubits [quantum bits], we can form super-positions of all these different possible combinations.   The physical state of the super-position is determined by the amplitudes of the wave-functions of each qubit combination, subject to the restriction that the [squares of the absolute values] of the amplitudes sum to 1 (measurement can give 1, and only 1, bit string).   This means that the state of a super-position of n qubits is described in 2n amplitude factors...   If we apply a computational process to a classical bit, then the value of that bit may change -- the bit string changes from one possibility to another.   For example, in a system with 2 bits, the string may change from 00 to 10.   But applying a computational process [operation] to a qubit super-position changes all 2n components of the super-position simultaneously." --- James E. Baggott 2013 _FareWell to Reality: How Modern Physics Has Betrayed the Search for Scientific Truth_ pg239

  "The sale of CDSs [credit default swaps] by AIG Financial Products in London illustrates.   American International Group was a very big, reputable, global insurance company.   It had a subsidiary, the AIG Financial Products [AIG FP] unit in London.   The head of this subsidiary in the early 2000s, Joseph Cassano, [thought] that he could sell CDS insurance contracts while holding a very small risk pool against them [based on the low level of defaults in recent history in his specialized but limited knowledge].   He commissioned an econometric model, which told him that for the top-rated (the so-called super-senior) tranches of mortgage-backed securities [MBSs], even in a recession as badas the worst of the post-war period [i.e. since the Great Depression], there would be no more than a 0.15% chance of losing any significant amount of money.   The AIG auditors went along with this finding [agreed], and also with Cassano's conclusion that AIG could safely sell CDSs on such assets with no loss set-aside whatsoever.   This meant that payments from the sale of such swaps could be seen as pure gravy.   And so he aggressively sold them, even at premiums of only 0.12%.   By 2007, AIG had $533G of credit default liabilities on its books...   the real phools (since Cassano was paying himself more than $38M annually from 2002 to 2007) were the folks back home at AIG head-quarters [in NY], who were loath to question the goose that [seemed to be] laying the golden eggs.   Furthermore, those liabilities could bring the company down, in due course, even if Cassano was right about not having to make any payments for default whatsoever.   Because those contracts, especially the ones issued to Goldman Sachs, had some fine print.   That fine print specified that when the CDSs declined in value by more than a given amount, AIG was required to post collateral to show that they could meet their swap obligations.   As long as times were rosy, this fine print had no bite: the un-diluted value of the CDSs and also AIG's AAA credit rating were assurance enough.   And corporate head-quarters was gratefully booking the profits, as this fine print was un-known even to the chief risk officer.   But then, in the financial turmoil [stirred by the small disturbance of the game by Shrub & some of SecTreas John W. Snow's subordinates, the panic fanned by Shrub, Fed chair bubbles Ben Bernanke, & SecTreas Hank Paulson built, resulting in the eventual] failure of Lehman Brothers in 2008 September, AIG could not raise the credit for the called-for collateral.   Knowing that if AIG filed for bankruptcy, all those CDSs would be in legal limbo [would not be propping up the firms holding them, nor the firms that sold them], the Treasury and the Federal Reserve [under Paulson & bubbles] stepped in.   They shoveled $182G into AIG.   Remarkably, since $205G was recovered [under/by AIG CEO Benmosche in 2012], the tax-victims made a profit on the deal.   But that is the good end to a bad story..." --- George A. Akerlof & Robert J. Shiller 2015 _Phishing for Phools: The Economics of Manipulation and Deception_ pp38-39
