The Liberation of Libya

I am really excited about the declaration of Libya's new leaders to use Sharia law.

After the Apostolic Empire of America destroyed its evil enemies in Afghanistan, I was worried that the Taliban's destruction would be a permanent loss for diversity and multiculturalism.

The three USG domestic political levers today:
- aristocratic & monied oligarchy; (openly potestas, secretly auctoritas)
- magistrates, bureaucrats, & professors, direct; (openly imperium/writ, secretly imperium/writ)
- populists, traditionalists, voters (openly auctoritas, secretly potestas)

Potestas, Auctoritas, and Imperium in American Government

auctoritas authority, originator, production. From auctor author, promoter, producer, father, progenitor < augēre to make to grow, originate, promote, increase, augment, enlarge, spread, extend

potestas: power, ability, capacity, force. From potis having the power, able, capable, posse to be able, to be possible, to have power, to avail

imperium: a command, order, direction, injunction, supreme authority or power, sovereignty, dominion, the right or power of commanding, authority, command, control. From impero to command, order, enjoin, bid, give an order

These governments are assigned to the Legislature, the Executive, and the Judiciary, in the formal constitutions of American governments.

The Legislature, from which derives and originates all authority of the government, that is the people and the law.

The Executive, which holds substantially all physical and practical power of the state, and implements its force.

The Judiciary, the voice of the sovereign law, which commands the mandamus, so orders the state, and enjoins any party.

We shall see the results of their combination into one.

Atheist Darwinist Egalitarianism

If you disbelieve in God and superstitions, and you believe that humans are a product of carnal genetics and tribal warfare, why do you think people are equal?

An eminent Scientist, who discovered the modern basis of genetic biology, is excommunicated for stating that scientific evidence shows Africans are less intelligent; because he violates the Universal Equality and Dignity of Man, His Independent Spirit, Who Are All Worthy of Salvation (Materially).

Economic Numerology

n. A system, tradition, or belief in a mystical or esoteric relationship between numbers and physical objects or living things.

The empirical basis of modern economics is chain-indexing on an inflation history, where the measurement of housing cost is Owners' Equivalent Rent, which comes from a model with changing rules, which is fed by rent costs modified by a popular survey of owners and mortgagers, about their own buyer's perception of their own house values, in relation to local rent costs. Yet, the basis of empirical science is consistent measurement universally verifiable, and the basis of economic pricing is the rational self-interested seller who has experience and interest in the price signals that personally affect him.

Quangos

A Quango is ignoble, a superior of inferiority or an inferior of superiority:

- The Authority admits incompetence, diffusing authority to a Foreign office which it does not rule
- Yet the Authority frees not the agency to rule itself, but asserts some rule over it, defined on the principle of the Forsaken authority, and practiced on the principle of Confusion.

Either the Authority rules, or the Alienated office rules, or there is Misrule, or there is Religous concord.

The Authority rules itself, or it does not rule.

The Material Explanation

As Technology empowers, the World will be overtaken by a single sovereign Authority, or erupt into a thousand sovereigns; the former ensured by a Monopoly on archdominant Technology, the latter by Mutually Assured Destruction, Invincible Defense, and Parity; ever stronger offense against ever stronger defense at ever lesser cost, but ever greater control.

We see this in history from the enlargement of States and the reduction of Great Powers, to the nuclear defense and the terrorist attack.

Perhaps Ideas, enabled by Communication and Revolution, work the same.

The Government of the domestic United States

In the domestic United States, the mechanics of government, the criminal and civil law, and the judiciary and military, still majorly operate according to the original forms of Anglo-Saxon and Founding law.

The Professors and their Ideas get around this material fact by holding sway over the minds of voters and office-holders, directly participating in the civil service, and being the supreme authority on the state religion: Reason and Science.

Uprising in Tunisia

Why is Tunisia uprising?

Are the uprising people of Tunisia supported by USG, as in the recent eastern Colorful Revolutions, to create a liberal democracy which will conform to the religion and profit of USG?

Or is Tunisia a remote useless province of USG, with a vassal government, which USG carelessly ignored or cannot profitably or piously maintain by public force?

Or is this unrest stoked by local or regional factions, which will shuffle the politicians or other personnel, but little affect governing policy?
