Marriage and Civil Unions: Government, Civil, or Religious
I think it is great that people can get married. It shows commitment, love and tradition. Marriage has a religious meaning to some people, but in my opinion, it is just another word for an official civil union. It also means my friends shouldn't eyeball my girlfriend anymore. I believe one major argument against the legalization of marriage between same-sex couples is that marriage is a Christian institution and God does not approve of same-sex couples. I am not going deep into the issue, because I don't really care about what other people think, I care about fixing their problems.
“Marriage is really tough because you have to deal with feelings … and lawyers.”
-Richard Pryor
I think we could call the government calls a marriage, instead, a civil union. A marriage should be handled municipally or through religious institutions. If you want to get married and not get the tax benefits, insurance breaks, and death benefits that would be legal. Marriage would have no legal binding. If you want to make it a “legal marriage” or “civil union” recognized by the government, you need to visit a courthouse and apply for a marriage license. Now, the state will arbitrate your disagreements during divorce or separations. Some disagreements are independent of official union already, such as parental rights or the courts' right to impose child support payments.
“The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.” -Ernest Hemingway
It is easy to look at this as simply changing the words to make everyone happy. I guess you could say it is true. If the issue is that marriage is an institution belonging to a certain religion. We don't use a priest to officiate unions, and make it more like the Department of Motor Vehicles. You sign here, you sign here, okay, unionized. If you want a marriage, find a priest, say your vows, and wear the rings.
If I live with my best friend for twenty years and we share expenses in a single household. I should not have to marry them to reap the benefits of an official government union. We should either make unions more commonplace and divorce much easier, or eliminate the need for government licensing.
We need to become responsible for identifying and registering certain information with some institution. We should probably write our first wills in high school. We should be well educated about why an updated will is critical. I should be able to add and remove my girlfriend from “kin list” with the click of a button in an application on my I-phone. It doesn't necessarily mean she gets all my assets if I die, it means she has visitation rights in the hospital or conjugal rights in prison.
“Nature is pleased with simplicity. And nature is no dummy” -Isaac Newton
The last point I will touch on, is not going to get much air time, but I will mention it. There could always be a state that decided it didn't want their kids to see same-sex couples anymore. It would be similar if a state decided it was going to be a segregated. I would think America is past all of these issues and can find ways to live in peace among one another peacefully. It is possible America believes this is a place where the federal government can tell a state what they are doing is unconstitutional. I know it is already unconstitutional, but a more people powered government could lead to all sorts of new judicial questions. If you found this last paragraph outrageous, that's because is it. Sometimes you just have to go there so other people don't take you there.
“I have never seen much point in getting heavy with stupid people or Jesus freaks, just as long as they don't bother me. In a world as weird and cruel as this one we have made for ourselves, I figure anybody who can find peace and personal happiness without ripping off somebody else deserves to be left alone. They will not inherit the earth, but then neither will I… And I have learned to live, as it were, with the idea that I will never find peace and happiness, either. But as long as I know there's a pretty good chance I can get my hands on either one of them every once in a while, I do the best I can between high spots.”
-Hunter S. Thompson
Technology: A Force for Good or Evil?
I originally wrote this title to be a few pages long. I want to be able to question whether these devices we all own are vices or tools. The answer is different for everyone. I remember my college professor asking us to take a deep look at our connection to technology. It was supposed to be some sort of information systems technology course. The professor really made me sense I had a choice about how to connect with the world of technology.
The smart phone is a wonderfully handy device. It can connect us to the world wide web of information almost anywhere at anytime. I use mine for GPS when I am lost. I check online prices when I am in the store. I read the news, check my Facebook, or play a game when I am bored. We all use our phones for different purposes, whether that be organization, operating our appliances, or remotely monitoring our homes.
The problem arises when we are overly using our phones. It becomes a problem when everyone is at the dinner table and nobody is talking. It becomes a problem when we have to make laws to make sure people don't use phones while driving or using a cross walk. It shows we don't understand how to safely use these devices. It would indicate that we are irresponsible citizens and government needs to make laws to protect us. I will say the texting and driving statistics are staggering.
“Watson, … if I can get a mechanism which will make a current of electricity vary in its intensity, as the air varies in density when a sound is passing through it, I can telegraph any sound, even the sound of speech.” -Alexander Graham Bell
The television is another great device. It delivers high definition information and entertainment directly into our homes. It has been with the American family for sixty years, but our relationship to it has changed. Today, the television is a standard part of every day for the average American. We are emotionally connected to needing a television. That television can make or break our day or week. We never want to miss the game or the new episode of our favorite show. The television, in itself, isn't a dangerous piece of technology, the information flowing through it is the dangerous part.
“If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.”
- John Lennon
The tablet and computer are my favorite devices. They stay where I need them. They don't break in my pocket. The screens are large enough to view the information I want to see. The biggest threat is loss of sensitive information and spying. It is up to each of us to decide how much information to store on computers. It is up to the consumer to decide if these devices may be recording my family life through microphones and cameras. I don't believe we can be definitive about how much information is being collected, but I think precaution is probably healthy.
“Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.” -Pablo Picasso
I would be wary of setting up home wi-fi networks. I believe the research suggests these electronic signals are not good for us. We tend to forget about all these invisible signals bouncing around our homes twenty-four hours a day. I remember going to the dentist one day. The dental assistant was taking an x-ray and asked me to place my head into a machine. I jokingly mentioned how this can't be good for me, since I was about to have x-rays blasted into my skull. I was shocked when her response indicated that I shouldn't worry because the radiation was equivalent to a phone call.
Domestic and Abroad: Gender Rights and Equality
I was raised to respect women and I believe I do. My political leanings in my twenties led me into feminism. I became scared to speak in the presence of activists or feminists. My voice was not relevant or welcomed because of my gender. I started to see how powerful this women's movement had become and saw how oppressive it could be. I decided I needed to start protecting my own gender. I want my children, male or female, to not only be equal in rights, but equal in voice.
I support the women's rights movements. I wish the women's rights movements could recognize healthy forms of the men's rights movements. I think there are some very serious conversations that do not have definitive factual answers regarding the rights of men in child rearing. There is at some point, part of the male, outside of the female, in the form of a child.
Men's rights activists need to get it together though. I can hardly support most of what the movement represents, although I do seek equality. Men need to not be afraid to be interested in causes relevant to their gender. We need a platform that is safe, respectful, and equal. We need a voice and not a voice to tell women they have equality. A voice to express our own concerns about the present and future of our own gender. We need to come out from the guilt trip that has been placed on, this idea that we are inherently violent because of our gender. I would hate to think I was born violent and there is no hope for my gender.
This is a difficult paragraph. We need to get out of these business of trying to help women abroad. I hear this idea all the time that we need to do something about Saudi Arabia because they abuse women. A liberal once told me the reason we are blowing up the Middle East is because they stone women. Unfortunately, we can't force out nations to do what we want. I know it hurts to see things like this. I don't like opening my Facebook in the morning and seeing a woman in India getting raped. We can't change the world, we can only change ourselves. I don't want to take the Middle East women's rights anymore than I want to take them freedom and democracy.
Can we not just be fair and offer everyone an opportunity to express their beliefs or concerns. You cannot discount someones opinion about most topics because they are white males. If I am talking about a woman's body, possibly. If I am talking about solutions about the environment, my opinion is not irrelevant because you believe the Earth is feminine, therefor only a female can heal her. I do believe Earth has a feminine aspect. In life, when my Mother is sick in the hospital, my sister doesn't get to have the final say about her care, because she is a woman. I wish we could all see how some of these issues, although critical, create divisions in the movement and prevent us from actually taking back our government to make the necessary changes.
Ownership of the Corporation
I would like to see the people democratically own Wal-Mart. I would like to have an Institution of the Corporation. A branch of the government, with one-hundred percent transparency, that operates businesses large enough to be considered critical infrastructure. When we quit paying billions to the children of Sam Walton, we can do many things to improve our shopping experience. We can pay the employees more, we can lower the cost of goods, and reduce our impact on the rest of the planet.
I would elect lobbyists, similar to the way we elect other leaders. The individual will be responsible for listening to the voters and reporting to the store manager. The store manager is hired because they listen, not because they are trying to get rich from the consumer. Wal-mart would no longer need to advertise. It would decimate the competition because it would be non-competitive. It is the people's business and you would be foolish not to shop at your own store.
It would put out small grocers around the country. It doesn't have to though, that is the beautiful thing. We can make a decision to take care of these grocers. We could ship to them at Wal-Mart wholesale prices, allowing them to stay competitive. We could make sure we buy them out if they desire to be bought out.
The corporation is not going away anytime soon. The movement of goods and services is unlikely to stop anytime soon, and if it does, will likely be jump-started as soon as possible. Anything short of nuclear war is not going end mega-corporations. We can harness them. We can make them responsible and responsive. We can put a leash on the monster, the big five. It can be a peaceful procedural transition of power from the owners of the corporation to the people of this democracy.
This is basically a large-scale worker owned collective. We often look at how local communities and small businesses can make strides to buy-out or takeover their place of work. We look at how we can hire our own bosses and choose what to pay them. We can improve the quality of work, level of pay, and quality of the product. If we own something, we are invested in the product, we are passionate about the success of the business. We start to feel like we are working with a family in which we share more equally in the work load and profits. We will begin to enjoy our labor while recognizing personal financial gains.
Dealing with Infrastructure
The roads and bridges are crumbling. The levees are failing. The schools have black mold. The housing is not withstanding natural disasters. We are supposedly the greatest nation on Earth, but we can't seem to fix our potholes. I believe we are capable of more than fixing potholes. I believe we can create a robust infrastructure to serve generations to come. We can build on a scale that has been unrivaled by Americans since the Transnational Railroad or the Panama Canal. Construction is big businesses for corporations like the Carlysle Group. There is a reason we don't have strong and long-lasting infrastructure.
The Venus projects does a nice job at looking towards a drastically different future. I am not advocating the implementation of the Venus project. I do think the models are neat and offer an image of something we can hardly imagine to be possible. I would like to see massive networks of mag-lev or light rails. We should want to take the train because it moves at three hundred miles an hour and can take us to any major city. I want to see super highways that look more like China's and I want to see them built in record time with an impeccable safety record. I would like to see new ports like Singapore's. We can't seem to control what is coming in and going out of our country. New infrastructure could address some of these issues.
I want to build the wall. I want lots and lots of walls. I want concrete walls, anti-missile walls, anti-electromagnetic wave walls. I want to see this country surrounded by an iron curtain that reflects the global and thriving anti-American sentiments. I don't think the anti-American sentiment is unfounded because we blew up a lot of people's homes. We stole a vast amount of natural resources. We made many people angry and an apology is not going to make it all better. Offering refuge to a few people is not going to make it better. Building new houses and installing a Wal-Mart is not going to make it better.
I am tired of the government telling me what classifies as infrastructure. I believe the cell phone and television communication networks are critical infrastructure that belongs to the people. These are nation-wide networks that deliver goods and services to the American people in the form of information. I want my taxes to pay not only for the roads, bridges, and schools. I want it to pay for access to these systems at a cost which is reflective of the cost to operate, maintain, and expand these systems.
It is very easy to see where costs can be transferred into savings when we move these systems out of corporate control and into the hands of the people. The amount of money spent on advertising by these phone carriers is outrageous. If the entire network is operated by the people, here is no need to compete, meaning there is no need for massive advertising budgets. The United States is projected to spend fifty-seven billion dollars on advertisement in 2018. If this savings could be passed on to the consumer, or citizen, I think it would be great.
It want to see these massive infrastructure projects to come out of the existing budget. The common argument is about who will be defunded in the process. The teachers pay will be cut, there won't be enough for the military veterans, and the welfare mothers will starve. This is not true. Use the tens of billions of dollars in subsidies our tax dollars currently pay to massive corporate conglomerates. The healthcare industry spends nearly one-third of every dollar on paperwork and billing. The citizen is paying a ton of money, just to make sure they get a bill. Ask a nurse, I am sure they can tell you how to cut the bureaucracy expense in half. America, we can do better a
Robotics and Production
Robotics are future and we may even say they are the present. The industry will not slow down and the best thing to do is embrace the new era of robotics. The argument is always loss of jobs, loss of jobs, loss of jobs. If we do a massive overhaul of our factories into further automated processes, we need to create new jobs. We want to create jobs that actually better opportunities. There is infrastructure, gardening, care taking, teaching, and all sorts of other industries that are under-employed.
If would rather have my I-phone made by American robotics than underpaid Chinese workers. It will be cheaper for me to buy a phone and the profit stays domestic. I would rather have my clothes, shoes, tools, cars, electronics, and everything else made by robots. It creates freedom to pursue new avenues and industries for many American families. I think change can be scary because we tend to be comfortable in stable situations.
This is why it is important for the citizens to own and operate the factories. If the corporation owns the factory, they will automate it and fire the employees without providing a safety net. A town that is automated “overnight”, needs to have new industries in place, parachute packages, and new educational opportunities. A town that owns a factory, can even automate it themselves, collecting a small percentage of profits for the town or a pension for the employees.
In a world where the profits from the labor of the average American are not being funneled to the rich, robotics looks a lot different. Anything and everything we can produce with robotics in the United States is beneficial. It reduces our reliance on foreign nations, lowers our trade deficit, and ensures production is domestic. If we can't produce products in America, we are vulnerable. If a robot can produce these products, the citizens have more time to pursue other dreams.
We can argue all day about which country has the best workers and produces the most lasting products. I would rather have my products made by robotics any day, with the exception of hand-crafted products, and I don't mean hand-crafted on an assembly line. Robots do not make mistakes, they never have a bad day, and they never let a slightly under-quality product float down the production line. I would rather have a robot processing my food than a person in gloves and a hairnet. It just seems more sanitary.
We should not be afraid of factory robotics. We are not talking about walking and talking humanoid intelligence operating our factories. We are talking about arms that remove faulty products from an assembly line or little fork lift things like Amazon uses in their warehouses. We have to remember how much of our factory processes are already automated, it is just further automation. Let the robots have our jobs and we will find something else to do with our time.
Nutrition, Labeling, and Choices
I just want healthy food. I don't want to dig through ingredient list in the grocery store isle. I am tired of carefully checking for specific additives with confusing names. I am tired of searching for a sugar-free canned fruit without Stevia. I just want an honest institution to tell me about what is in my food, what might be bad to have in my food, and what I definitely do not want to have in my food. I don't think the Food and Drug Administration is fulfilling their duty. The FDA allows the food industry allows strange stuff in our food, with very little research.
I want to know more about how much protein I should have in my diet and what we really know about gluten. I wonder which carton of eggs is actually cage free. I want to know more about hormones in my meat, RBA in the milk, GMO, preservatives on prepared vegetables, nitrates, and the list goes on. I can do some research, but I want to the government to help me be informed about these risks. I want to hear real debates and I want it appropriately covered on the nightly news.
I believe we all have a choice to consume as we please. I don't believe sugar and salt should be made illegal. I don't believe we need to put skull and crossbones on GMO products, an easy to read and straightforward label would go a long way. If GMO products remain cheaper than non-GMO, the consumer has a choice to purchase these. I just think we need a better education from our official nutrition experts. I think we could make better collective choices as consumers.
I will tell you the problem. The people who listen to the television do not like to be criticized by it. Cardiovascular disease and diabetes are major issues that effect millions of Americans. Millions more know they are headed that direction if they maintain their current lifestyle choices. If the newscaster is always talking about the nutritional crisis in America, millions would change the channel to avoid having to look at their lifestyle choices.
We should end the confusion surrounding our food supply. We should demand transparent research on the products the Food and Drug Administration is allowing for sale to the American people. It should be simple to get the information on the labels that we value as consumers. We want it straightforward, clear, and standardized. I don't know what this label looks like or what ingredients it includes, but I know we can do better.
Religion and Government
I would say this is a majority Christian nation, that should be obvious. I don't know if that makes the United States a Christian nation. I would still call it a majority Christian nation. I do not believe that makes every part of our government inherently Christian. It makes most of the people who comprise the government, Christian. It is not by official declaration or law. If seventy percent of Americans are Christian, then about seventy percent of the government employees are Christian.
We do this for a reason. It is possible to have states that do not identify as Christian. There could be a state that is Presbyterian and another that is Baptist. You could have a non-denominational state. The federal government would need to be assigned a brand of Christianity, an official bible, and an agreement upon the interpretation of doctrine, including its' relation to the law. It would be an absolute mess.
We do not want the federal government dictating morality to the nation. Trust me, every state won't have a problem deciding that rape, murder, and pedophilia are immoral. The basics are covered. I don't believe federal money should be distributed to states for specific purposes with specific guidelines. So I am comfortable saying. The federal government can't regulate abortion. The states have a right to not only regulate abortion, but spend the states tax dollars on abortion. The federal government needs to get out of the debate and turn this issue over to the states.
I think the era of churches receiving tax breaks is over. If everyone who attends church is tithing ten-percent of their income, imagine how much money churches are taking in. I know that not everyone tithes ten-percent, but the churches are collecting a large portion of America's paycheck. The problem is, the churches produce very little for the public good.
The mega churches aren't feeding, clothing, and housing the poor. The mega-churches are building bigger big screens, buying louder stereo equipment, and paying their leaders millions. The churches are not reaching out as much as they should be to be tax free. Of course, kind people are always doing nice things for the less fortunate. The food drives are just not cutting it. The problem of poverty in America is worse than ever and congregations need to step up to the plate.
Education and Learning
I feel like I am on repeat on this one, but there seems to be a common thread. The federal government has no right to dictate educational requirements to states, communities, or citizens. The school in one state might be very different than a school in the next state. One curriculum could include requirements for extensive trade school training. One curriculum could include passing an exam proving you know how to file taxes.
Everyone will have similar core knowledge they will want their children to know. The how, what, and to what degree different subjects are taught should be decided as locally as reasonably possible. Some states may choose to have mandatory exams, some states may choose to make it a county issue with a choice to take the state test, others could leave it up to each student.
Another division point from parents and school districts is the use of technology in the classroom. If implemented correctly, I think schools that introduce heavy use of technology in the schools will find improved learning. If a state wants to print tablets for every student in their state, the federal government is not going to stop them because it wouldn't be fair to the students in other states. This is the Great American Experiment, not the “great American we-already-got-all-this-figured-out-stop-changing-things”
Learning can be more student directed. If a student wants to learn one subject one hour and another the next, I think that is great. If a student wants to spend all day on one subject, I think that is great. I would imagine some encouragement or requirement would be made to study a diversity of subjects. Technology would teach and the teachers would help when a student is road blocked. It is not that a student isn't having a lecture, it's just that the students may be having different lectures at different times from different teachers.
One fifth grade teacher in the school may be great at teaching history, but terrible at teaching math. There may be famous math teachers that can communicate algebra to anyone. There may be one math teacher perfect for student A, a different math teacher for student B, while student C may learns best just reading the text book. Every student does not have to do the same paper or have the same homework. The technology can decide what is best for the student to work on. The software can determine progress, frustration, and weak points in a particular subject. It would then make recommendations for lessons to help improve that individual student, while still keeping them engaged with more enjoyable parts of their education.
We can start to experiment with all types of education. I think I would like my first grader on a farm. I would like them to take turn counting the eggs from each nest, adding up all the eggs from different nests, figuring out how many eggs will be left if a certain number are sold, decorating the egg carton, and packaging the eggs carefully. I would want an older student figuring out how approximately how many eggs will be produced this week with multiplication, determining how many chickens one must have to produce a hypothetical amount of eggs, and figuring out how many more chickens would be needed to produce at a given level.
There would be other tasks on the farm, like milking the cows. It could teach conversion. If the milk bucket is about a three gallons, the student should figure how many liters of milk it will produce. If students were going to cook a pie with some of that milk in class, the students would be told each pie uses one cup of milk, and asked to determine how many pies can be made with the days milk collection. The pies would definitely need to be cut in different size slices to teach fractions. Everyone gets one bite and the rest goes to market.
The fifth graders are definitely responsible for the accounting side of this elementary school farm operation. The students must determine how much it took to produce the eggs, how much the eggs sold for, and how much profit was earned. The students should be watching for shrinkage in the form of theft and overproduction of pies. The students should learn to watch for opportunities, like noticing that the eggs sell out every week. Possibly there is a growing appetite for kale and the potatoes are over planted.
I want my middle school student to be learning basic principles of math, language, science, history, etc. I would want entry level home economics that isn't designed just for women. Woodworking is not a trade skill that is going to serve most students. This time of life is fine for an introduction to working with an electrician while studying classic principles of electricity. A student can learn basic home plumbing while studying the principles of fluids, liquids, and gas.
I high-school student would of course maintain course with basic general studies. The big difference is the level of concentration and training that is available. A soon to be citizen should come out of high-school with a skill that will offer that individual a valued position in society. An hour or two, five days a week, working as a car mechanic is invaluable. The same goes for working on home construction, maybe someone wants to build a tiny home to live in during college, but they want to build it themselves.
This is not a model for a new school. This is me babbling about nothing in my hotel room. The education system today is not interesting, engaging, or fun. The federal government needs to get out of the way and allow for more experimental, non-traditional, forms of education. Parents need to have more control over their students' curriculum. The students need to have more control over their curriculum, particularly as they become teenagers. The schools do not teach the skills American citizens need to know to be successful in this society and there is no reason to not fix it.
Ownership of Weapons and Tools
The majority of tools can be used as weapons, from an ice pick to a car. A computer becomes a weapon when used to bully people into self-harm or suicide. Axes and machetes have been used in countless wars. Today, we use them to cut our firewood and slice through thick brush. In recent wars, guns have been used as a weapon. In recent times, guns have also been used for tools. We have used guns as a tool to keep us alive during long winters and hunt for food before we had McDonald's. Contrarily, we used those same guns to operate a brutal genocide against Native American populations.
In Britain, where gun ownership is practically non-existent, I have seen protests to get rid of the knives. After the knives are gone, then I guess they will go after the hammers. The point is, if someone wants a weapon to do harm, they will always find one. I suppose the government will ban plumbing supplies next, that way nobody can make a pipe bomb. I understand guns can cause damage and are sometimes accidentally triggered.
There is a reason we have weapons and probably a reason why the second amendment is next to the first. I do not believe we can not guarantee freedom of speech without the right to bear arms. I believe when citizens responsibly own a gun, a certain level of tyranny cannot flourish. Well regulated domestic militias are critical in our system of checks and balances with the federal government. I am sorry if you don't like guns or they scare you, they scare me too. I am scared of a police officer with a gun, not a rancher.
The constitution is immutable. I see it as the ten commandments of democracy. Basic principles that each serve a critical purpose in ensuring the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We do not crusade after motor vehicles because people accidentally die using them. We don't pursue motor vehicles as weapons because individuals purposefully run over crowds of people.
I do believe it is a states' rights issue. The federal government is in place to ensure one state can't destroy the constitutional rights of another state. The federal government is not in place to demand that each state provides constitutional rights to their citizens. This is what causes civil war. One state can't tell another state what to do, either allowing or banning gun ownership. The constitution guarantees a state has the right to bear arms, if they choose.
The federal government or Supreme Court, can rule something unconstitutional, but a state has the right to enforce the courts' judgment. If the court tells the state of California it is unconstitutional to ban weapons in your state. There should be no domestic federal arm of enforcement, except highway patrol, port authority, and other positions that monitor federally regulated areas. the United States military can't stop state police from seizing weapons.
The war on guns is like the war on drugs. They should be called the war on certain tools and the war on certain substances. It is not working and only leading to great division in America. I personally, have never owned a gun or been hunting. I have shot a BB gun and .22 a couple times. I still believe we all have the right, if not a duty, to own a gun.
