Boomers vs. Millennials

 - Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

- Matthew 10:34

I was always troubled by this scripture. When I came across excess "talk" on the coming generational showdown between Boomers and Millennials, I decided to address it. On thinking and researching info on the subject, the words from the Bible came forth. I think that now I have a handle or a piece of insight on what Jesus was saying. If you stand with him, it is possible to go against what your parents, elders and society believes.  

Unseen Powers

Let's call a spade a spade. Aristocratic beliefs are contrary to democratic beliefs. The elite class is unseen and they hold aristocratic beliefs. They are the ones to dominate our society. You may point to income and earnings of the richest like Gates, Bezos and Buffett. Yes, they exert powerful influence, but the answer is no. 

When I invest, I always look at the charts to see price action and volume. Our two primary political parties are our charts. You can see when one is more powerful than the other, the types of legislation that is passed. With that said, it is not the whole story. The media is controlled by the unseen elite. They dictate to the media, the news to follow and the depth of presentation. Dear Reader, there is no depth. Inside all legislation is the unseen hand of the elite. It is how their corrupt legislation becomes law of the land. It is included with something that is needed like added protection for vehicles against IEDs in the Middle East.

This is not the issue that Adam Smith talked about when he referred to the "unseen hand" as people acting in their own self interest. It is a loose agreement by the very, very rich as what they see as best for the world. It is displayed in the advocates of "One World Order."

These people are really old school aristocrats with old money that has grown exponentially by their influence into global politics, especially in the US. Their playbook is basic. Put a division into society. This distracts society from really addressing what a nation really needs. You can go back in history and see all the conflicts, most notably, Catholics vs. Protestants. Since America did not develop this religious warfare, these powers pushed other conflicts: Settlers vs. Indians, Farmers vs. Open Range, North vs. South, and today, White vs. Black/ Latin, Immigration vs. Domestic. It is West Side Story on a national basis. You delve deeper into a conflict and like an onion, you get layers. Within the White vs. Color, you have the police issue. Historically, the police are thugs for the powerful. They could shoot union people without fear of reprisal. They shot Black people in the same manner, but technology is exposing them. These same powers will attempt to use technology as a weapon for the millennials. Their generation is tech savvy, while the boomers are not. It is a magic trick of misdirection. 

Millennials need quality jobs just like Boomers needed them. The outsourcing of labor began during the Korean War. It helped Japan by logistics. It helped Europe due to Communism. Many boomers were not even born when this occurred. The boomers were educated enough and flexible enough to start the service industry. Then, inflation hit. Everyone suffered. The government's answer was more deficits. It should have been to stop the global community from dumping and killing our manufacturing. Tariffs should have begun. The budget balanced, but no! Instead, the government decided to kill our youth by war. Kids were taken off the street which hid the unemployment picture and sent overseas. The military grew and grew. This along with outsourcing are the two unseen influences by the elite. The US has military presence in over 100 nations. Why? The idiots who run the military have been wrong about every encounter that they said was in our national interest. Their actions in Korea = Wrong! In Vietnam = Wrong! In Iraq = Wrong! In Afghanistan = Wrong!

One other aspect. The militaries mission is to protect America. How are they doing? They allowed the atomic bomb to be stolen and tons of intellectual property. They allowed 9/11 to happen. Hacking is open season in the US and you don't need a license. Total failure!

It is time to put the blame on the military brass. Like a child, they should be seen, but not heard! They have bankrupted our nation. We cut their budget in half. Use that money to create programs to counter the Chinese government who subsidizes all their industries. Forget the WTO. When we pass stimulus, it includes to buy American in all aspects. We need to do better forestation. We cut and replant trees. Lower the cost of lumber and create quality jobs. Build affordable housing! This will also limit wildfires. A win-win idea that no one brings forth. Of course, the elite will try to influence groups like the Sierra Club to oppose tree cutting. One last suggestion. We do the water program that I suggest in my unpublished work. It will provide quality jobs in every state and help our health by providing clean drinking water for all Americans, especially those on reservations.

Frances Perkins...

is one great American that the elite hate. She addressed labor under FDR. Roosevelt gets credit where Perkins did all the work. We have the 8-hour day, collective bargaining, unions and social security due to her. This is what the elite fear. A real American with the values of the middle class and their return to power in our government. This is what they use all their distractions to hide.

Books

There are many tomes on the question of Boomers vs. Millennials. They get published because the writer researched the subject. He showed the publisher that the work will sell as there is a market. What is not known is the people who tell the publisher what to produce and what to reject. For example, one writer that I disagree with is Joseph Sternberg. He says the Boomers pushed our present fiscal policy and monetary policy. He is wrong, and or a liar! Boomers complain about low interest rates (savings bonds, etc.) which is monetary policy. The Fed channels investment money to the market. They do not allow the safe vehicle of government bonds by their policy. Boomers were the first populist to shout against outsourcing, but is not heard. The government leaders in our so-called democracy, do not do the will of the people. They do the will of the party which is controlled by the unseen elite. This is the only truth that everyone needs to know. Citizens are disenfranchised from government. One proof of this is lack of voting. Boomers will not justify the people in Congress. We have no democracy in our democracy! 

This is why I am an Independent. I desire to start a new political party, the Liberty Party.

To begin, we only have two points on the platform. End all foreign entanglements and promote the general welfare by protecting American workers. If we can turn that corner, then we can address some other issues facing our nation. Peace.
