The Three Tenets of Existential Terrorism

Words are not things or actions. They are vibrations of the air molecules or squiggles on a page. Mistaking words for reality is the mistake that puts politicians in office and sells all of the products, religions, and systems of government on the planet. Saying "Tree" is no more a tree than saying "I love you" means that someone loves you. To perceive reality as it is, one must accept that words are a vehicle for the transference of our perception of reality, not reality itself.
God is dead. I killed him (it, them, her, et al) on November 5th, 1991. Justifiable Homicide. The idea that the universe is run by some cosmic supra-hero concept of ourselves is absurd and unproven. The idea that the creator of the universe put us here in these bodies to satisfy some moral experiment is offensive. The God question; "What are we doing here?", may or may not be valid. At this time, we are here because the physical laws of the universe are not completely against our existence. Our short time of consciousness would be far better served ensuring our survival rather than posturing before some misanthropic cosmic deity.
The only government, the only rule of law, is economics. However our societies are structured, whatever religion or ethnicity, we have all decided that those with relatively more assets have better lives than those with less relative wealth. All measured value is economic value in this system.

fund of econ

The fundamental aspects of money and supply and demand in economics produce a system that in some ways emulates a survival of the fittest scenario. The goal for every nation is not economic survival but economic prosperity. Economics is a Human invention and as a result does not follow exactly a Darwinian evolution. Rules of economic behavior are created by the national community. These rules are written by and favor those nations who will be able to realize the greatest gain from their implementation. Economics is much like a sport in which the rules are enforced by the home team. In order to succeed, economics must be played according to the current rules. Whether or not these rules represent an equitable exchange of value is irrelevant. Either poor nations will remain in poverty until the rules for economic prosperity change or a poor nation can play the game by the rules.
