> Collapse of U.S. Economy Imminent

22 January 2006, 19:18

Although I firmly believe that the Cheney Administration is pure evil, here is how the American economy in its current dire trouble can be made nearly invincible:

1) Convince nearly all governments worldwide to absolve the USA for all future crimes against humanity and to not bring such a case in the new International Criminal Court (ICC).

2) Secretly develop several new weapons systems, for which there have been a few clues that they are under development in the USA:
2A) convenient assassinations [DoD]: a microwave beam weapon from space that can literally cook the flesh of any world leader who refuses to comply with the USA’s crimes against humanity;
2B) convenient genocide [DoE, to bypass treaties that the Cheney Administration interpret as governing only DoD]: a genotype-based fatal disease that kills only one targeted race/ethnic group, such as those who are viewed by bigots as the lesser races of the historically Third World who are now leaving their centuries-old solar economy to compete for petroleum consumption and such as those who posess large quantities of resources needed by a world-domination empire;
2C) satellite elimination [DoD]: a beam weapon that can deflect a satellite from its stable orbit to re-enter the atmosphere and burn up.

3) Enact laws and enact mortgage-lending practices that create 3A) a large amount of consumer debt coupled with 3B) stern foreclosure/bankruptcy laws where unpayable debts cannot be erased but which must be worked off until paid in full with interest.

4) Enact laws and executive orders to establish the following three drafts, for which foreclosed/bankrupt people can be re-assigned as needed worldwide.
4A) a universal-service military draft for *all* young men and young women to serve one of the "uniformed services" (not only Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Space Force, but also Coast Guard, CDC, FBI, and the new Secret Service Uniformed Division a.k.a., Secret Police) for nominally two years, but with stop-loss extension of the tour-of-duty up to age 36;
4B) a medical draft for nurses, physician’s assistants, and medical doctors with preference for people up to age 36, but without strict upper age bound;
4C) a special-skills draft for imperial world-domination needs as they arise, such as fluency in enemy-du-jour languages and Ada (and perhaps mainstream information techonologies), but also perhaps manning an oil rig in the Middle East or working on an assembly line in China, again with preference for people up to age 36, but without strict upper age bound.

5) Expand the power of the Office of the President of the USA so that no authority anywhere within or outside the USA can limit how the President performs his chief-executive control over the Executive Branch and enforcement of the laws on the books.
5A) A big part of this is the concept of the Unitary Executive, where all authority for governing how the president does his job is granted solely to the President himself and which cannot be limited in any way by Congress or the Supreme Court of the US (SCOTUS). This transforms the presidency into a near-dictator, who, yes, must obey the speed limit while driving as an individual, but whose office has limitless powers as long as there is at least one thread of interpretation of at least one law that can be contorted into a presidential enforcement of that law, such as interpreting Patriot Act as free license to spy on all Democrats as terrorists.
5B) Another big part of this concept is exectutive signing orders where the president at the point of signing a law passed by Congress, reiterprets what that law *really* means independent of what actual language that Congress passed. This executive signing order becomes the law that is enforced by Unitary Executive, completely eclipsing the original wording that Congress passed. Here the corporate-fascism tie-in is obvious: the executive signing orders are not recorded by a unit of the government as is the case for Congressional laws, but instead by West Law Publishing Corp.

6) Recognize that Peak Oil has occurred or is on the verge of occurring right now. Recognize that China and India and Africa all are becoming affluent enough for large percentages of their population to start competing with the industrialized world for natural resources, especially petroleum. The currently-known oil fields can support only a worldwide population of around 1 billion, instead of the 6+ billion that we have today.

7) Stop the trade of crude oil in any denomination other than US dollars. Since the end of WWII, all crude-oil trade has been denominated in dollars instead of British pounds. This forces all countries worldwide to hold dollars in reserve, instead of a gold reserve generations ago. This is what made the post-WWII expansion of the USA economy possible. It must be preserved AT ALL COST (and thus justifies all other bullet points in this list). Saddam Hussein was trading crude oil in Euros, starting in 2000 until his removal. Iran is scheduled to start the Euro-based Iran Oil Bourse in March 2006. Expect action against Iran to assure that the Iran Oil Bourse ceases to exist.

8) Add all of these to a stew-of-power and stir and cook gently for the next several decades. Use genotype-targeted biological weapons to genocide 5 billion people to match the population to the supply of oil. Seize control of nearly all of the crude oil worldwide. Force all countries to buy their share of USA-controlled petroleum with US dollars. As human resource shortages occur with the loss of 5 of the 6 billion people on the planet, encourage foreclosed/bankrupt people to work in a foreign land as a new class of colonists or, if they refuse, draft them. Re-establish a new colonial system via a world-dominating American Empire. Aim the microwave oven in space toward any unruly world leader to boil their blood. Aim the satellite knocker-downer at any space-capable enemy’s satellites. Assure through Unitary Executive control that the President-as-near-dictator can enact this plan without annoying disruption from Democrats in Congress or some do-good-know-it-alls-for-life on the Supreme Court.

Again, I consider all of this revoltingly evil to the Nth degree. But what is the alternative? Overpopulating the world to no end with gasolene costing $10 or $20 per gallon as China and India all start driving vanity SUVs? This is the fundamental shortcoming of the Democrats supposedly in opposition to all of this: the Democrats have no answer to these fundamental problems. The pure-evil line of reasoning at least partially addresses the problems. In this scheme of a world-domination American Empire, the dollar and the American Economy would be quite firmly propped up, perhaps permanently as the American Empire would never allow a rival to emerge once this regime is in place.
