33. Personally I like the Kucinich plan the best.
I also believe it represents the highest moral standard and is very workable and cost effective as other more civilized countries have proven, adding further credence and objectivity to it being the highest standard as to what is moral.

To me this is the most important sentence in your OP,
The central fact of modern American political life is the control of the Republican Party by movement conservatives, whose vision of what America should be is completely antithetical to that of the progressive movement.

And within this sentence is a most important word, antithetical.

Here’s a term out of the book http://www.cassiopaea.org/cass/political_ponerology_lobaczewski.htm">Political Ponerology:reversive blockade

Ponerology term: Emphatically insisting upon something which is the opposite of the truth blocks the average person’s mind from perceiving the truth. In accordance with the dictates of healthy common sense, he starts searching for meaning in the “golden mean” between the truth and its opposite, winding up with some satisfactory counterfeit. (Continued on page 151)


Now if you take something that is of the highest moral standard such as lets say for instance, the single payer health plan proposed by Kucinich and the exact opposite Republican plan, then apply the reversive blockade technique what do you get?

Its very interesting that you pointed this out.

I suppose that he doesn’t want to dilute his message by talking about candidates whom he considers to have little or no chance of winning the Democratic nomination.


Gee, why doesn’t Kucinich have a chance of winning the Democratic nomination, and why is his ideas made so silent? Could it be that the psychopaths running this country know about reversive blockade? I guarantee they know about it, and if there is one constant factor on the main stream media it is reversive blockade

This does not imply that Krugman is a tool of the right and is purposely using reversive blockade techniques, it could be just as you stated, which then means, he himself is a victim and has excepted the results of the technique, something within the golden mean, which is a lesser moral, known as a para-moral.

Para-moral is one of the paralogism discussed in Ponerology. If you think about the highest objective standard possible in a given subject such as moral, logic, appropriate, truth etc. and reduce its qualitative properties you end up with a counterfeit such as para-moral, para-logic, para-appropriate, para-truth. Now you want to start having fun? Consider how paralogisms effect the ‘selection and replacement of premise’, it will become clear as to how para-moral standards in one country seem barbaric and criminal to another. In some countries it considered moral for the men in a family to kill a female member who has been brutally raped, in order to cleans their family name. Obviously in America some people consider it moral to let sick people with out health insurance die. What kind of moral standards do these people have any way, and why are they running our country?

Like I said, I like the Kucinich plan the best, but I really can’t foresee any great changes until we stop electing politicians who are para-leaders, (Hey I think I just invented a new word for conservatives) anyhow - I mean really, how are we going to pay for it, with our debt based bankrupt para-financial system?

Oh and by the way, do you think it is ‘para-appropriate’ not to mention that there are conservative democrats with para-moral views, opposing moral values of progressive democrats?

K&R Dr. Dale your the best...

PS, did you get your book yet?
