WHY NOT MOVE THE CAPITOL TO JERUSALEM?
It is the epicenter, after all, of both liberal and conservative Western globalization.
Then you won't have to worry about shuttle diplomacy.
You will be right there, baby!

RE FLANDERS BBC FORGET ABOUT GROWTH
Great idea, but too late to start thinking about this,
now that prosperity possibilities
under another paradigm
have slipped away with globalization.

RE NYT ARTICLE 7/27 STRIP CLUBS IN TAMPA ARE READY TO CASH IN
This is typical of Florida culture, as well as national culture.
Joe Redner, from whom we took one of his clubs for a project, adjacent to the Hyatt along the Courtney Campbell, is a classic example of a local government official candidate.

IN THIS COUNTRY INDIVIDUAL STATES CHARTER CORPORATIONS
Were it to become of use, say to extort concessions from MNCs, individual states in which they are incorporated would be the likeliest place to look for political leverage.
This leverage might be discovered and exploited somewhere at some time by "cash strapped states".
If I were a cash strapped state, I would extort the heck out of those MNCS incorporated in my state, or else, by state legislation, terminate the corporate charter.
A first step might be to legally prevent corporations from transferring their corporate charter to another state. Prevent corporate forum shopping. Delaware was always a big corporate charter draw.
I believe that large corporations need generally to be unwound, especially the largest ones with global reach.
They no longer serve the general welfare here, to say the least.
Another scenario: cash strapped states go out of business as political entities, devolve back into "free cities" and ungoverned frontier areas; and corporations cease to be legal persons at that point.

RE SOVEREIGNTY AT BAY SEE ALSO PRIVATE GOVERNANCE
http://aei.pitt.edu/2851/1/102.pdf
Sounds great doesn't it,
given how things have gone,
with private very large firms,
especially banks.
Kind of like letting the foxes into the hen houses everywhere.

"....High educational ideals created both its achievements and its audience. It is moribund now in the United States because no cultural values compete with market values,..."
Reading Randall Collins' works, see The Credential Society, Collins attempts to relate 'cultural capital' to an economic base, in a rough sense, to an economic market concept (but it has almost never been a real laissez faire marketplace out there) to account for cultural and political change over time.
It seems to me that Collins' discussion is helpful for conceptualizing the role of culture, religion, education, media, and ethnic traditions, in a general sense, for economic and political dimensions.
They are not identical, of course, culture and economic/political base, but distinctions and interactions are hard to conceptualize without circularity, ambiguity, superfluity, reductionism, etc.
This discussion relates to my comments here about compartmentalization, specialization, and the remoteness, irrelevance, wastefulness, complexities, shapelessness, and obstructions of academic and educational fields, in relation to powerful movements of current history politics and commerce, which either ignore, bypass, pirate from, dissemble among, or hide behind them.
Collins' history squib of education in America is especially useful.
His references, on everything, are insightful.
Term search compartmentalization, specialization, fragmented, fragmentation, etc.

NOT THAT I AM A BIG DEFENDER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
But it was hardly a surprise, unfortunately, to find that the manager and backers of Madonna,
and her sacrilegious decadence, are Jewish American, and Israeli, interests and charities.
Perhaps Gaga's reductionist sacrilegious and decadent follow- up career is similarly backed?
Perhaps themes here can be seen as related to themes broached today re cultural and market values, and my reference to Randall Collins' works.

QUESTIONS RE DK CURRENT POST
"Men, few will be surprised to learn, are very concerned about the size of their penises, and often wonder how they might be increased.
"Straight women, on the other hand, are much more likely to complain about excessively large penises than excessively small ones.
"Women’s concerns about their appearance, on the other hand, have shifted. The posterior has replaced the breasts as the main source of anxiety during the last decade, and women are more likely to worry that their rear end isn’t big enough." DK
Given these apparent statistical conclusions, could womens' complaints about penis size be connected, somehow, to their concerns about the small size of their posteriors, or not?
Correspondingly, how to square male concern with penis size with findings on its lack of use, large or small?
"Relatively few people seem to ask google why their partners want so much sex; instead, they (and especially women) often ask why their partner seems to want so little." DK

"Relatively few people seem to ask google why their partners want so much sex; instead, they (and especially women) often ask why their partner seems to want so little." DK
I am certain that my thoughtful readers can help with all of this social scientific data and inference.

TOCQUEVILLE DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA
"A democracy can only with great difficulty regulate the details of an important undertaking, persevere in a fixed design, and work out its execution in spite of serious obstacles."
Amen.

TRUMP ORTHODOX JEWS HAVE QUEERED NYT LIBERAL JEWS
You can quote me. Say "Boomerbuster said." Rather like Simon says.
Say no more.

SOME MAY MISTAKENLY SUPPOSE THAT I FAVOR BANNON ECONOMIC NATIONALISM
That would be a big misunderstanding.
Although I tend toward economic nationalism, the time to have built such a nation, within a still dominant Western Civilization, is long gone, a century or so gone, now.
Bannon is a sort of Alcibiades.
He at least knows he's been queered by Asia, and he is mad as hell. That's how you feel when you been queered.
My favorite endgame, for Bannon, and for Snowden, would be if Putin were able to put both Snowden and Bannon in the same cell somewhere in Russia.

THOMAS L FRIEDMAN COPIED MY SAYING IN PART IT SEEMS
A few readers of my blog may note that my version had been a paraphrase of a famous line of Churchill's, about the role of the RAF in The Battle of Britain.
My version has broad application to Friedmanesque American led globalization.
Friedman's version in the article applies only to China and Israel, and only to Trump's giveaway to them.
My phrase "so quickly" can be omitted by Friedman, for his version, since what he is describing happened very recently indeed anyway.
You will note that Friedman kept my "for so little", a phrase missing, of course, also in Churchill's original. The reason is that Friedman, as well as myself, turned Churchill's statement from a debt owed into something given or almost given away.
That is also how you know that Friedman copied my statement, because he transformed its essential meaning in the same way I had done.
He also omitted "Never in the history of human conflict", since he doesn't want to get into what I mean, as against his own globalist flat world giveaway agenda in general.
Perhaps he can come out with a Michael Pillsbury Fallacy mea culpa, book, saying something like "I preached globalization for the last 30 years but, only now, do I realize I was wrong".
Terms search, also: Steingart

TRUMP RECOGNIZES JERUSALEM ISRAEL'S CAPITOL 2000 YEARS LATER
Judgment of history, verdict of history....
Who was on the wrong side of history?
Who was on the wrong side of history?
Pagan Roman Empire, apparently. Muhammad, ditto.
Many, quite justifiably, anti semitic Christians, Catholic, Protestant, or other, who, as an article of faith, believe that the Jews killed Jesus, and that the destruction of Jerusalem of the Jews by the Romans was sanctioned by God himself.

WHAT MATTERS THIS OR THAT REASON
Monday, September 7, 2015
GLOBALIZATION AS THE CAUSE OF WAR NOT AS THE CAUSE OF PEACE
Let's focus on this theme for a while here, what do you say.
Back in the days of mercantilism, they could not really even distinguish trade from war. "What matters this or that reason..." At least they, back then, had a clearer concept of the relationship than contemporary specialized economics and other experts in other fields now do. Sad commentary on knowledge, specialization, and history.
"As General Monck put it with military directness in demanding a renewal of war against the Dutch in 1662: ‘What matters this or that reason? What we want is more of the trade the Dutch now have.’ Trade meant wealth, wealth enabled one to wage war, war made possible yet more trade: who could resist the lure of this logic?”
“The British Way In Warfare: A Reappraisal”, The Causes Of War, Howard, 1983.

DUMB AND DUMBER LIBERALISM
You really have to look at the article below, in the context of European and world history, to see how bad it got, over the decades after 1760, until the culmination of dumb Western liberalism in the 20th Century.
If the European liberals, or what was left of The Old European Order, were dumb, their American spawn, at all times, were still dumber.
