Why are you so excited?

The more people's job involves mis-leading the public, the more excited they usually are. When a job is genuinely serving the public, there is no need to say that you are excited about it.

You can't be what you want to be, you have to be what you need to be.

Emperor Nero is back. Enjoy the soap opera on the global stage while the world burns.

Why are you still in Business?

Natural evolution demands that we adapt our working practices and business's to changing environment, geopolitical realities, and changing customer demands, or let it die out just as steam engines and travel agents did.

Imagine, and think BIG without any inhibitions or worrying about practicality of it. You WILL change the world.

The Biggest Problem of our times

Selfishness and greed to some extend is good as it motivates people to strive for rewards. It is good and normal human nature to want fame and fortune.

Authenticity for us means writing and talking without being Politically Correct, and without diluting our message by making it softer, gentler, and palatable. The Pen is mightier than the sword only if the pen is sharp and pierces the soul.

The American Way

America doesn't need a new system which sucks life out of the winners, middle class, and minorities under a false promise of feeding a few crumbs to the less fortunate.

Change

If we want our politicians, government, and corporations to be honest, not hypocritical, far-sighted, and fair, then we have to simultaneously be that ourselves. Not before, not after, but at the same time.

The world needs authentic Capitalism, not Socialism

In authentic Capitalism, you earn what you can. No one extorts from you, and you don't get any special treatment because you lobbied or are part of a politician's electorate.

The poor worry about climate change as they see its effects immediately. The rich and educated are less affected by climate change, are insulated by it, and are happy just talking about it.

Help each other

Our insular, individualistic, intolerant, entitled, and selfish existence has created an epidemic of loneliness.

Take the initiative to be involved in other peoples lives and help others, instead of looking for reasons not to.

Life your life with elegance and class, not just getting by and merely satisfying your basic primeval desires. Dress well, eat well, live well. Go out, meet people and make friends.

The Great Story of our times

Where is the Great Story, the Great Leader, and the Movement of our times? It is preferable to bring about change through slow cultural changes and laws, than a revolution spearheaded by a charismatic person or a revolutionary movement or a catchy narrative and slogan.

A life unlived

Why do so many people with skills, knowledge, and motivation, never fulfill their true potential?

The death of hypocrisy

People, government, and corporations don't deny or hide their sins. Instead, there is pride. Who needs hypocrisy.

Diversity

Diversity is tolerated and protected out of necessity by the Deep State. There is no acceptance of diversity in the Western World at grassroots and community level, and why should there be any. At best, it is polite hypocrisy.

Money does bring happiness

Money brings health, comfort, and security. It is not everything but having all that should make you happier than living without it.

Politicians

All politicians are predictably corrupt and only interested in power and money. We have to unite and engage with them on our terms as a group, not as individuals, to ensure we get them to do what we want.

Who owns your country

You own your country and almost everything in it. Imagine the possibilities. Act like an owner.

It is The Law

Laws are made by politicians, not by God. Don't give laws more credibility than they deserve. It is our duty to obey the law, but not our duty or obligation to respect the law, and it is our right to change it.

Travel open the mind of those who are broad minded. It doesn't open the mind of those who are narrow minded.

What if you are wrong

Ignorance, arrogance, and confidence have been best friends of late. Be open to realizing you could be wrong, and you will less likely to be so.

Irrelevant Media

No deep discussion or analysis of what is important is allowed. The irrelevant and trivial topics are given to the media to publish as news. The media also has itself to blame. For a long time, nepotism, cult like environment, advertiser influence, and corruption flourished in a toxic pseudo-rigorous environment.

Mis-informed, dis-informed, and un-informed

Any single source of information is prone to be corrupted as time goes by. If you desire to be truly informed, expect to have to read several independent and competent sources just to be aware of what is relevant to you.

Why us

Why should you read what we have to say?

Why does it matter

Why should anyone care about what we care about on this website? Why bother to provoke thought, enlighten, and provide answers without favor or influence.
