A recent round-table discussion centered on why security at schools should not include metal detectors and other signs of collective safety.<br />
<br />
The argument focused on the deterioration in the quality of schooling which would occur if the schools began to feel more like fortresses rather than educational institutions. <br />
<br />
The debate concerned the intrusion of tighter security into the freedom of our schools, which should not be imposed by criminal elements. The logic went that if the additional security measures were enacted the bad guys had basically won the day. <br />
<br />
You could argue and discuss this for a long time but at the end our schools still remain vulnerable. This last incident in Colorado could very easily have resulted in many, many more deaths. We were just lucky. We might even make the claim that the increased security since Columbine substantially saved a number more lives.<br />
<br />
I wonder if the D.C. Federal Judge would have so smugly undermined the constitutionality of the anti-crime terrorists surveillance if "his kid" was blown away by a mad person because security failed to trump our over expectations of what it means to be a free society.<br />
<br />
Without safety , the Constitution will lose its value. <br />

We have not written a blog in a while. There are so many people writing so many things with so many points of view, we weren't sure we had anything to add to the dialogue. <br />
<br />
During World War II, one man was a brilliant master of propaganda and mind control. Imagine what that person could do today with the Internet and social media techniques.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, we face very cunning enemies, both domestic and international. They have figured out how to use a large element our of population to allow them to attack many of our democratic principles.<br />
<br />
Profiling is not allowed, if you are looking for a particular type of person you are hard pressed to disclose it. We are surprised by the repetitive nature of serious crimes, yet loath to enhance break throughs in our protection systems.<br />
<br />
<b><u>The best and most important example is our schools. Although there are guards at airports, post offices, hotels, malls, street corners, apartment buildings, stadiums, concert arenas, etc. there are intelligent people who do not want to accept the necessity for much greater protection of our kids in schools. </u></b><br />
<br />
It's almost as if we unconsciously accept the concept that "they were expendable" because we would rather not face the reality of the current world situation. We would rather close our eyes and accept the easy way out, that blindly believes that there won't be another and another and another occurrence of tragedy.<br />
<br />
We may not like it because its against everything we stand for, but the hostility of what we face should be apparent to all. The Boston Marathon terrorists could have just as easily planted a nuclear type device. <br />
<br />
If the Boston tragedy isn't enough to prove this point true, how much more will it take to convince you what we are really up against.IF its not one cause its another.Who in the right mind lets student guns in a school.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>

As they woke in the morning they turned off the house alarm and said good morning to Fido, then proceeded to breakfast. On the way to work they pass either the superintendent, a doorman, a guard or a concierge or may open twenty different locking systems before proceeding out the door of their building. There probably will be a cop on the corner or the next corner and they might pass a sheriff on the road and in smaller cities many often pass the police station. <br />
<br />
Arriving at the office there is a bank branch in the lobby with a guard standing out in front. Security cameras are everywhere including the red lights on the road and the elevators in their office building and parking garage. As it is Christmas time they may go to the local shopping center where signs immediately greet them "Patrolling Security". The next day they may leave for vacation at the bus terminal or airport and security is extensive. Everywhere the hypothetical person turns there is one form of advanced security or another. Everywhere but...<br />
<br />
THEN THEY WENT TO THEIR CHILDREN'S SCHOOL. THERE WERE FIFTY DIFFERENT WAYS TO ENTER THE SCHOOL, THERE WERE NO PANIC BUTTONS IN THE CLASSROOMS AND NONE IN THE HALLWAYS. ANY ADULT COULD HAVE ENTERED, THERE WERE NO METAL DETECTORS, THERE WAS NEXT TO NOTHING KEEPING THE CHILDREN SAFE FROM INTRUDERS OR HARM. THERE WAS NO SECURITY...<br />
<br />
Back in the day, schools were considered sacred ground. The horror of that no longer being true. Can you imagine the "horror" of using our children in political brinkmanship on the matter of guns? What type of security is required at schools is not only about guns but about many other issues.<br />
<br />
Can you imagine the stupidity of President Obamas' proposal that you can have a ten bullet gun but not an automatic weapon. I suppose that would allow a crazy person to sneak into the school with 5 handguns but not an automatic weapon. What will this really accomplish?</div>

Sixty years ago we bought our first house. It was $11,000.00. About ten years later we sold it for $30,000.00. Basically housing prices rose steadily for sixty years. Along the way home ownership became a cult idea. It started with Roosevelt and ended in a crescendo of speculation and absurd overpricing. No one really knew why a house was worth so much and why everybody should have one. There were lots of theories. Are we now faced with a cyclical downturn in housing demand? Or have we reached a tipping point where more and more people say “Hey I don’t need a 3,000 square foot house… I just need a 1,200 or 1,600 square foot home.” That would be a break in the mania, not just a typical cyclical decline. I don’t think too many people would argue with the idea that everyone should have all the “good things in life”, the only real difference of opinion would be how to accomplish that goal.<br />
<br />
Abraham Lincoln once had a debate with Stephen A. Douglas. They were both running for Senator of Illinois. Douglas said the slaves of the south were better off than the northern immigrants. His rationale was that slaves were property and generally treated better than the northern laborers. This appeared to be true at the time. Lincoln’s response was that the difference between the northern laborers and the slaves was that northern laborers would eventually be upwardly mobile, one after the other. One would a start business, many would begin to hire their own employees and another would rise up in someone else’s business. Whereas he said that slaves, on the other hand, couldn’t go anywhere. They had their chains.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately there are many kinds of chains. One can be chasing an impossible dream that housing prices will rise forever, or that internet prices will rise forever, or that people will stay pessimistic forever or that the government will provide for you forever. We are reaching the point where millions and millions of people are working for the government. We are increasingly restrained by an enlarging government which is viewed as beneficial but instead, in many ways, is becoming a new form of imposed chains.<br />
<br />
Almost every significant unionized industry in America has failed. Now the largest unionized segment in America is government. I’m not against unions, anymore than I am pro-incompetent management. But they have both often caused more harm than good and been well compensated along the way.<br />
<br />
People don’t leave what they believe to be secure environments. With unionized government jobs you’re unlikely to leave. You give up on opportunity. You generally vote for those in control that convince you that this is a good deal. You are mentally captured by what they seem to be providing and give up almost any chance for significant opportunity. Are we now on the road to the subtle enslavement state? You may be free to go, but how can you. Lincoln was right when he implied that “chains” come in many different varieties.<br />
<br />
Government can only be paid for by taxes. If wages and salaries aren’t rising, and stocks aren’t rising, and houses aren’t rising, there isn’t going to be much to pay for future government. Freedom to succeed will ultimately create a more economically equal society. Reducing that freedom, whether well meaning or not, will ultimately prolong the problem. Certainly taxation without representation, where a small percentage of the people pay almost all of the taxes, will not work. The ultra wealthy who attempt to shield their real tax reducing methods, while shouting for equality, don’t help solve our problems.<br />

Russian has absolutely no problem sending arms to Syria and other places in the Middle East.<br />

We don't have the mindset to send all necessary arms to Ukraine. The last I heard, Russia has a Destroyer parked in Cuba. As far as I know, there is the Monroe Doctrine which prohibits such actions. <br />
<br />
Obama should at least tell the Russians to get the Destroyer away from the US Coast. He won't.<br />

Gorbachev dismantled the Russian Federation. Putin is going to rebuild it. <br />

There are 140 million people in Russia. Putin knows population counts. Atomic weapons aren't going to be used therefore you need, in Putin's view, a powerful armed forces.<br />

Ukraine has over 40 million people. Controlling the Ukraine would increase Russia's population significantly.<br />

China doesn't care. India doesn't care. Europe is impotent. We have developed a similar proclivity. <br />

Most Americans don't serve in the Armed Forces. It wouldn't be too difficult to make the leap into believing that we are served by a mercenary hired Armed Forces. <br />

If you really want to get confused, remember that CNBC really should not be in the business of giving investment advice to the public. What an abomination.<br />
<br />
There is no such thing as the free press and media. There are however less than a dozen large companies that control practically all of the TV stations, radio stations, Internet access, newspapers, etc.<br />
<br />
They are Disney, Viacom, Comcast, CBS, Fox and half a dozen others. <br />
<br />
These are companies whose sole objective is to increase the value of their shares by attention getting words and pictures.<br />
<br />
ALL OF THE PEOPLE WE SEE ON TV ARE <u>ACTORS AND EMPLOYEES</u> OF THESE LARGE CORPORATIONS. THEY ALL WORK FOR A HIERARCHY OF MANAGERS AND MUST ADHERE TO THE CORPORATE POLICIES AS SET FORTH BY THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS.<br />
<br />
In addition, almost all the so-called media are reading from teleprompters words that are produced and written by people in the back room probably with an average age of less than 40. <br />
<br />
A small group of executives control the media so when President Trump says fake media he is not too far off base.<br />
<br />
I will close with one example. In the New York Times Sunday Magazine section dated February 26, 2017 there was an article about the increase in private school enrollment.. If you look at the statistics in the enrollment in private schools you will find the left wing writer made up the story based on completely inaccurate facts. Private school enrollment is down. A perfect example of completely fake news.<br />
<br />
So when you are watching TV or reading the news, it is not free speech it is entertainment.<br />
<br />
If you really want to get confused, remember that CNBC really should not be in the business of giving investment advice to the public. What an abomination. </div>

<br />
<br />
When the housing boom was taking place it developed huge vested interest in the continuation of the housing bubble. A voice in the dark could point out the absurdities of what was happening but the enjoyment of inflated prices and profits overwhelmed sanity, logic, discipline and history.<br />
<br />
In my opinion, we are now being faced with a "time bomb" that will far exceed long term capital management, the insurance protection decline of the 1980s and the financial collapse of 2008. This huge "Black Swan", huge beyond comprehension, will hit when least expected and we will wonder why it wasn't dealt with before. The answer will be found underneath the rubble of certain greedy Wall Street types and vested political interests.<br />
<br />
We cannot permit <strong style="font-weight: normal;">automated machine type trading</strong>, with no relationship to companies outlook, etc. to dominate the volume of trades in the stock market. There is no excuse, none whatsoever, for creating a machine driven gambling casino mentality in order to justify the existence of capitalism.<br />
<br />
Here is what's going to happen. A computer driven decline will occur and the brakes will fail due to human error or whatever causing the equity wealth of the country to be sharply cut again. Because there will be something happening in the world at that time, recovery will not be as fast as it was in the late 2000's. All computerized trading, of the type we are referring to, should be made illegal and stopped before its too late.<br />
<br />
The vested interest will tell you otherwise and make their case. Just like in the long term capital case they are mostly using other people's money and are more concerned with their chance of winning than losing. The monies not theirs anyhow and there is no concern for the system, only their own profits.<br />
<br />
Look at the erratic swings in the stock market that have occurred in the last few weeks. We draw this as a small example, a very small example, of what is coming if we don't stop this type of computerized trading.<br />
<div style="font-weight: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>CAPITALISM WILL FAIL IF THIS IS HOW IT'S CONDUCTED.</b><br />
<em style="font-weight: normal;">P.S. Please remember that I am a very strong supporter of capitalism and many of the activities that our financial firms participate in. The probably isn't a better system than ours.</em></div>

And the money kept rolling in.Until it didn"t. Evita.The contract dispute between Amazon and Microsoft may seem like an ordinary battle between 2 giants with powers far beyond the money kept rolling in.It is almost impossible to believe that we could even joke about the concentration of power that bezos is aiming for; As our stock rises the money keeps rolling in but underneath beware, Why would this small piece of business be so important to risk it all. He sees that our cohesion is so befuddled that just maybe the real story is way over our pay grade/</div>
