Citizen Journalist: Our three main comsats enjoy up to 200 readers per week for which we are
very grateful. We are experiencing difficulties launching Facebook: NASA_Ares. Meet us there;
as always, gift optional. Please consider becoming a member.........This article is dedicated
to the 50th on the 5th - Al & Freedom 7. The irony and the appropriateness: May
remembered for a wonderful death and for  a glorious beginning. It is written in the stars. As
you are well aware, 'CJ' endeavors never to be cryptic. By the bye, the answer to your
query may lie at Facebook: NASA_Ares. Cute..Men don't say cute...tricky. If you can't bring
 mohammad to the mountain - send special forces after him. Or, bring the mountain to Americans
and are true friends on the planet. Subtle?
 
            (From Rod Serling's closing narration, "Escape Clause," The Twilight Zone,
            November 6, 1959, CBS Television Network)
                                The CAMERA PANS away from the body and then slowly up
                                the side of the cell until it stops on a shot of the barred window
                                facing the outside.
                                                        NARRATOR'S VOICE
                                There's a saying ... every man is put on earth condemned
                                to die. Time and method of execution unknown.
                                                  (a Pause)
                                Perhaps this is how it should be. Case in point--Walter Bedeker,
                                lately deceased. A little man with such a yen to live.
                                Now the CAMERA MOVES OUT and through the bars and is
                                shooting up into the night sky.
                                                       NARRATOR'S VOICE
                                Beaten by the devil ... by his own boredom ... and by the
                                scheme of things in this ... the Twilight Zone.
                                                                                                   FADE TO BLACK
 
Welcome Back...Glad to be here...Glad to have you as a guest...Where will you be taking
us?...To meet bin laden's 71 virgins...
 
First, we begin with space, per forma; then, down-to-earth; followed by who-knows-
where. A psychedelic trip of the mind of sorts.
       Fed gov continues to give taxpayer $$$s - subsidies - to four private sector
companies, including, SpaceX and Virgin Galactic via NASA. It constitutes an
immense injustice of a constitutional-scale. We deem subsidies to be unconstitutional
in a capitalistic society. Seed money for a new business or seed money for a
new risky endeavor by an existing company should come from that class of
investors who specialize in risk capital investment not taxpayers for we won't be
reimbursed nor will we share in the dividends (see "Where are my Dividends?").
       We shall return to space but will now take a detour to patting ourselves on
the back. The president and house speaker are now talking about ending
subsidies (this form of subsidy is not cash but special tax breaks) to oil companies.
We first proposed this a year ago and reiterated it more recently in an "Action
Chain Letter." We proposed ending all subsidies, including, those given to
natural gas, wind and solar; more on the latter momentarily. (Remind us to
return to space and solar; two Ss and related - just making it easier for you to
remember and to remind us).
        Subsidies to oil amount to $4 billion per year ($40 billion over ten).
Opponents to ending subsidies have two arguments: 1) 25% of investment in
alternate energy sources comes from Big Oil and 2) Most exploration for new
sites at which to drill is done by small oil. Point 1: BO won't reduce its
alternate energy R & D if subsidies are ended; they want to be in on the ground
floor of these new and viable-in-the future technologies (Of course, Obama
likes high oil prices and wishes they were higher and permanent so for then
and only then will solar and wind be competitive when they come on-line;
drill, baby, drill at new venues for oil and natural gas {the U.S. enjoys a
100-plus reserve of untapped natural gas} - we have higher environmental
standards then other nations. Instead Obama is giving loans to Mexico and
Brazil to drill instead of creating jobs here. Further, solar and wind won't
fully come on-line until 2035 and only be able to generate 30% of our
electrical needs and no more so say the experts. Should Americans have to
suffer obscene energy prices, especially, at the pump until then!?! Besides,
solar and wind are for electricity not cars and trucks - the technology
doesn't exist to put solar panels and wind mills on cars and trucks!!! Did
we take an A.D.D.-tangent?). Point 2: We say it again: risk capital
investors, as well as, the banks that supply them some of the money for
more often than not their gambling pays off big-time.
       What's that?...Return to solar...Thanks for reminding us...
       We might be able to get 35% of our electricity from wind and
solar by 2025 by mining the moon. Believe it or not, it would be more
effective and less expensive than building solar power generating plants
on earth. Further, while experts predict that we won't have nuclear fusion
plants (we presently have fission plants) until 2030 - there might be a
way for us to have them be 2025; safer and more envirmentally-friendlier
than fission. How? NASA, of course. Some of you will be shocked and
wonder why Obama wants to cancel moon project (a growing number
of congressional members are fighting for the moon). Where do you
go to be shocked? "Action Chain Letter 4" - updated, improved and
expanded - and located at /group/nasa-our-way - - finish this ACL and
then run over there - - - it's three blocks east of new federalism.
The exercise will do you good!
 
We have placed 15 short posts at Facebook: Holms, Sherlock. Here's one:
                        "A long shot, Watson; a very long shot!
                                                             -Silver Blaze
                  'tis a pity, we had to get rid of Lisa, we couldn't afford
                  her - women! There's only a very long shot that a
                  reduced version made be created...A canceled NASA/ESA
                  (European Space Agency) project to measure gravitational
                  waves which are predicted by Relativity.
 
Father John Riccardo on EWTN pointed out that "the most serious sin of
our age is the loss of a sense of sin" which Pope Pious stated in 1950 and
Pope John Paul reiterated in 1984. He continued: We don't talk about it.
We don't admit that it exits. We are asking to be corrupted. Or, we
make excuses: it's not my fault; there are extenuating circumstances.
For many sin has become a joke. Sin isn't a joke. Sin ruins relationships.
Sin harms people. Sin is bad for us.
      We aren't prudes; we aren't holier than thou. Religious: Not; Philosophy;
Deist with a pinch of Plato. Please see "In and Out of Plato's Cave" at /group/
yellowfeverlime101).
      We have been watching - as a study - the 15- and 30-minute length,
including, commercials stand-up comics on Comedy Central. Our
observations: 99% use foul language 25% of the time, 75% of their jokes
are dirty; 1% are language-challenged 15% and 25% of their jokes are
off-color. We worry about the children. This material appears at all
hours. We are far from long in the tooth but when we were growing-up,
we were exposed to old and new. These young performers should
be forced to watch footage of: Marx, Burns, Benny, Borge, Bishop,
Little and Cosby (he was old school like his sitcom). They would
loose their confidence! They are funny 5 to 15% of the time vs. the
old-timers most of the time. They would utter double endentre' on
occasion but not in your face filth - clever stuff. Most of the time,
these potty mouths miss the pus-y...oops...target.
     And speaking of today's singers - have them listen to: Presley,
Sinatra, Torme, Fitzgerald, Lee, Berry, Holly, Holiday, Cole - -
they'd be ashamed to go on stage!
     Actors past and present: pay us the big bucks and we could
screw up lines with the 'best' of them! Order of importance:
Writers, producers, directors, actors; order of the green: actors, directors,
producers, writers. (More on this in the near future).
Voltaire: If God did not exist, we would have to invent him. Let's
face it: atheist can be moral most of the time. However, religious
people are more likely to be moral more often followed by
believers in one respect or another and atheist bring up the rear;
best when they're pretty. Otherwise, chaos rather than society and
an increase in crime, especially, against children, elderly and
women.
 
An insect trumps Trump in smarts. How can such a shrewd businessman be such
a big a-hole!?! We never subscribed to the silliness: Obama isn't
American; he is U.S. Constitutional Criminal! Yet, he does baffling
things like issue a presidential proclamation for ramandan but
not Easter - the first president not to do so.
 
As Popeye says: "Well blow me down!" Massachusetts house -
majority democrat - votes to strip key bargaining rights
from state employee unions. We repeat ourselves (public)
servants shouldn't earn on average (salary and benefits)
more than their masters (taxpayers)!
       Unions peaked in 1940 when 37% of workers were
unionized - only in private sector. Public unions were
created between 1950 and 1970. Today 13% of American
workers are unionized - half, private; half, public.
       We can argue whether or not unions served a valuable
purpose between 1890 and 1950 or whether or not
companies on their own would have slowly made changes
for morale (happy workers are more productive workers),
due to compassion and to avoid lawsuits.
      Do companies exist for the worker or does the worker
exist for the company. We say the latter. all an
employer owes a worker is a paycheck commiserate with
work performed and a reasonably safe work environment.
The government has no right forces them to do more;
they should do it voluntarily. Card Check: There is nothing
more American than the secret ballot. Due to shrinking
membership unions want workers to openly declare
whether they favor a union at their place of employment
so that union thugs can strong-arm workers to say: "Yea."
According to the National Labor Board: Workers have
a right to strike. We don't see that in our Bill of Rights!
A Boeing plant in Washington State was the victim of
5 strikes in the last ten years. They decided to open a
plant in a state where their aren't many union jobs. The
Labor Board invoking some obscure regulation and
misapplying it is stopping Boeing from doing it - something
that a lot of American and foreign companies have been
doing for the past 20 years - and creating jobs. Do you think the
Boeing will make the plane in its Washington plant or one
of its oversees plants.
 
Do you remember when Obama during campaign 2008 campaigned
in Paris and stated the he was now a "citizen of the world." Now
that Special Forces has turned the evil one into a cadaver, their
next assignment should be to terminate Superman who has
renounced his American citizenship and declared that he is a
"citizen of the world."
 
 Warning: J/H episode in progress...Citizen Journalist: It sounds plausible to
me...Richard DePersio: I'm shocked; you're never guilable...CR: It is worthy of
consideration...RD: Scientific Perspective - Remember the burden of proof is
with the person making the claim and not the skeptic. I'm shocked - nay, appalled
by your attitude.
All of those tornadoes down south. We heard a meteorologist state that the main
factor was a dramatic change in the jet stream. Which got us to thinking about
low-frequency radio pulses. Meteorologists often have that effect on us. Recently, we
discussed how an EMP bomb if ever developed could knock out our infrastructure,
including, electric grid.
       We have two HAARP and one in Puerto Rico research facilities to study the
ionosphere and jet stream in the hopes of enhancing radio communication and
surveillance purposes; HAARP is a joint Air Force, Navy, University of Alaska (in the
case of two) and DARPA (we spoke of it not long ago). Russia and EU each
have one.
       Some contend that the low frequency radio waves employed in study are
also being used for a more sinister purpose: controlling the weather. Attacking
a country with a hurricane or drought or earthquake or whatever without
having your fingerprints on it. They claim that Soviet Union 1976-89 produced
what was called the "woodpecker" in the background of radio communications
resulting in the drought in California from '88-'92. They also maintain that
efforts are underway to control path of jet stream which plays a major role in
weather and to develop ion heaters. Claim: targeted lightning could render
all or part of radar and electric grid impotent. Was Katrina an enemy attack or
a U.S. test gone awry? Strange artificial clouds: Seen for the past few years,
these plumes criss-crossing the sky resembling contrails have been called
chemtrails.
We aren't conspiracy nuts. They used to be on the fringe playing
to a small audience while today they enjoy wide media coverage.
Creep shows: What if they were 1% true? Scientifically not worth
serious consideration and should be dismissed out-of-hand - but
would make for a good story around the campfire. Evidence: at
least 50% of a claim must be convincing and, therefore worth further
 consideration. Reliable eyewitness testimony and second-hand info can
 serve to point one in a direction but observation, experience and experiment
 of a high level of credibility and standards and a lot of it, confirmed
by independent  investigators working from a firm, established foundation.
 Proof!
 
We can't say "goodbye" without say "goodbye" to ubl.
                    "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
                     the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about
                     seeking whom he may devour."
                                                          -1 Peter, 5:8
bin laden is discovering that there are fish not virgins in davy jones locker.
Remember what we reported last year from genuine experts - a radical
muslim cleric appearing on SkyNews in the U.K. and a muslim
women turned Christian on the 700 Club: Islam promotes violence;
a few % of muslims are terrorists, a few % are moderates and the vast
majority are radicals or radicals pretending to be moderates or
moderates who can easily be turned into radicals, if not, terrorists.
They should know! We also reported a year ago that most so-called
moderate mosques in the U.S. receive financial support from the
radical "muslim brotherhood." Recently, this info included in ACLs.
This constitutes Proof!

       were evil." -St. John. True of laden (Bible spoken here, no koran).

                           At age 20, CJ went to a movie theater accompanied by a pint. His pint-sized
                           secret was discovered by the usher, who said, "I have to confiscate your
                           bottle or you'll have to leave." What happenned? CJ couldn't part with
                           his security blanket. And, yes, he wasn't so impaired that he didn't get
                           his money back. Which doesn't explain his attempt to purchase a
                           drink in a bar with his torn in half movie tickets. Yes, plural, for not
                           being of the sissy-boy persaussion was accompanied by a pint and a
                           lush.
Let the article proper begin:
 
                                                         An Apology for the Devil:
                                                   It must be remembered that we have only
                                                  heard one side of the case.
                                                  God has written all the books.
                                                                  -Samuel Butler, 1835-1902
 
Three cheers for the American public and a thumb's down for Obama; Who has tried
since 2011 to destroy Our NASA in general and Project Constellation (Orion. Ares 1 & 5,
Altair) save for a parochial-version Orion. His presidential efforts have been thwarted by
many Republicans and some Democrats. Most recently, by two Ds and one R.
       Full funding of a multi-purpose Orion and slightly scaled back funding for the
other stars of Constellation, including, moon mission has continued due in part to the
efforts of our readers. Recently, funding continued in Republican/Democrat compromise
to reduce spending and to continue to fund fed gov until the end of the fiscal year, in
spite of, Obama efforts to virtually scrap Constellation!
       Instrumental this time around in bi-partisan effort were: Democrat-Florida
Texas www.hutchison.senate.gov/public Congressional phone: 202-224-3121 to secure
their phone numbers (Info on other key members of congress for space issues, as
well as, other issues are supplied in other "Action Chain Letters," supplements and
addendums).Join our concerted effort: phone and/or leave a message at their
website encouraging their activities and expressing your views.
      As of yet, no decision has made as to whether we will continue Ares rockets
(as we continue to fund these programs) or, at some juncture, stop program in favor
of rockets utilizing Ares R & D and test results. Let congress know your preference
or let them know that you are bi: comfortable with either approach. Obama wants
new rocket program starting from scratch and burning Ares R & D.! He relishes
wasting taxpayer money and he is so good at it.
      "Every time NASA lifts-off, it takes the American economy with it because
NASA is about innovation and it is about jobs," so says Senator Kay Hutchison.

There was a delay. They finally arrived: Our tickets to the Royal Wedding. We're so
excited. Topper, Harvey, George, John and Tom will accompany me. We will give the
Royal Couple an insulting gift like Obama gave the queen an insulting gift over two
years ago. UK being our best friends. Many stupid Americans bow when they meet royal people. We won't.
Americans aren't suppose to bow to royalty; we fought the Revolutionary War to
get away from royalty. Ignorant Obama bows to royalty. T.V. is giving a lot
of coverage to wedding. May 5th marks the 50th anniversary of the first American
to fly in space - the late and great Alan B. Shephard. How much coverage will it receive!?!

UPDATE: 2/14/2011. Last week represented the inception of Beck and others talking big-time about doing away with subsidies. We: last November in this article and "She Only had Time for...We Interrupt this Article," "She Only had Time for a Short One - Part Two" and in "Action Chain Letters" (please read this material). We like to be ahead of the curve. We enjoy tooting our own horn. While we are at it: we also scooped Beck and others twice since 2009. Last week, Larry Reid, "Foundation for Economic Education," was a guest on Beck and pointed out that food that isn't subsidized doesn't experience shortages, thereby, removing one of the justifications for costly subsidies.

Fwd: CHAIN LETTERS OF A NATURE UNORTHODOX 2 & 1 DIGESTED

Subject: CHAIN LETTERS OF A NATURE UNORTHODOX 2 & 1 DIGESTED

PREFACE (A preface to a letter, can he do that? He's doing it): It is 
our fervent hope that you will read all seven "Action Chain Letters" (must visit 
this site - you are here! - /group/rickcosmos-eclectic and /group/newfederalism 
in order to collect all seven) and 
that you will seriously consider working on the proposals with which 
you agree during 2011. Please share chain letters with family, friends and 
co-workers. (Sympathy Card: disabled and homebound; will do anything for 
what we call "The Second American Revolution" - even exploitation of the Self). 
Proposal 1: 
All congressional legislation should come with a requisite attachment 
showing the constitutionality of content. (Reason: Self-evident). 
Update: 
We won this in House; we should work for it in Senate. 
Proposal 2: 
We've spent $9.5 billion on "Constellation" Program R & D. It should 
not be allowed to go down same presidential black hole as "Cash-for-Clunkers," 
the stimulus packages and Fannie/Freddie! As much of it as possible should be 
incorporated into the plans, which our underdevelopment, for a new manned spacecraft, 
earth-mars transfer module, new heavy-lifting rocket. 
Update: 
It would appear as if there is a 50/50 chance that this will not come 
to pass; not good enough - more work strongly indicated. 
 
NASA receives only one half of 1% of federal budget. It is a unique 
government program - you actually get a return on your investment! There is a $7 
return within about a 5 year period for every $1 it is budgeted in the form of 
pure science (increasing man's knowledge which is good in itself but also has 
potential of becoming applied science or technology) and spin-offs/applications 
(technology: NASA in your home, car, factory, farm, office, hospital; NASA all 
around you and you are largely oblivious to the fact). 
We say "yes" to private/commercial space programs and "no" to taxpayers 
subsidizing it. We're not going to share in the dividends (for more info see: "Where 
are My Dividends" at /group/nasa-our-way and "Do You Think..." at 
/group/newfederalism, as well as, "Action Chain Letter: 4."). All subsidies are socialistic 
and unconstitutional and should be phased-out over a three to ten year 
period (depending on the program), especially, in light of the fact that we face the 
possibility of our nation losing its Triple 'A' Bond Rating within 4 years and becoming a third-world 
nation within 20 years if we don't get serious about cutting government spending. 
We are giving in the form of a subsidy (no pay back) $3.5 billion to 
SpaceX's Falcon 9 program and $1 billion to (the wealthy owner of) Virgin Galactic. 
SpaceX is already $900 million over budget! (Were they penalized? No; they were given an additional $900 million! Who wanted to subsidize? The constitutional criminal 
himself: Obama; by our count: 14 constitutional infractions thus far). This money should 
have been invested in that unique government program - part of which would have prevented 
the massive lay-offs (at NASA and the companies that contract with NASA; no 
subsidy here - contract) during a recession. It is imperative that NASA is restored to being

com. Now, Let's Do Ourselves a REVOLUTION!!!
PROPOSAL 45 (Remember this is being updated and expanded): See School's Stupid
Students (Alliteration Addiction). Stop punishing achievement and try rewarding it.
President Bush's successful "No Child Left Behind" (you know that it is successful
because school unions hate it!) has substantially reduced but has not
completely eliminated (mainly via national standardized tests): the mainstreaming
of the physically and/or mentally crippled (Citizen Journalist is not P.C. and
has advanced CMT but not when he was a school boy chasing school girls
in plaid skirts) who require extra attention - attention diverted from those
better equipped to handle the workload and are, thereby, held back; social
promotions - the promoting of a child from, say, 6th to 7th grade in order
not to deflate the child's ego and in order for the teacher to prevent
herself from looking bad: look - over half of her students have failed.
Instead of saying: we care about you; we want you to master grade
before you advance. Child is promoted and lost, needs extra attention,
deserving students are short-changed; schools which no longer post
'A' test papers for fear of hurting the feelings of those who didn't attain an
'A.' Old-fashioned thinking: Stroke the ego of the 'A' student to encourage
him to a repeat performance and motivate the others to work harder
in order to see their paper on the bulletin board; Non-competitive
activities in gym class, whatever, that is. It sure prepares child for
capitalistic society; schools which have done away with grading and
determine whether or not child is promoted predicated on effort,
social development and projects - stupid, nonsensical liberal thinking.
We have already proposed converting all regular public schools
into charter and magnet schools: on average charters outperform
magnets (no union control) while mags out do regulars (mags
semi-union control, regulars - nearly complete union control;
by the bye, regulars are budgeted more than mags and mags more
than charters - fascinating! Yet, libs tell us that the problem
with regs is that they don't receive enough money - - the problem
is unions!). On average students in mags and charts perform as well in
well-to-do safe neighbors as they do in poor, dangerous ones.
      Don't hold back our brightest stars. A big problem: boredom
and a feeling of not being challenged. There is no reason that
elementary school can't be 7 instead of 8 years (8 is largely review)
for the well-behaved 'A' and 'B' students. Further, those who
were As and Bs in grades 5, 6, 7 should go to high school for 3
instead of 4 years. Freshman who earn an 'A' can transfer to
advanced program; no transfers after freshman year. These
students would earn academic-regents diplomas or an
associate degree (if school can afford it; it presently takes 2
years to earn an associate in college, it would take 3 in high).
      We hear you: you're saying: in Japan and Western Europe
where in many of those countries Americans are being
out-performed in international comparisons, they spend more
days per year in the classroom. They don't get 12 weeks off in
the summer. Instead, they receive a week here and two weeks
there totally (it varies from country to country) 6 to 9 weeks. Fine;
if a state can afford it. We think our plan is even better. Let
us continue and stop interrupting us by thinking out loud (
A.D.D. distracting).
       Stop poorly-behaved, slow students and class clowns from
holding back our brightest. Motivate them to want to attend
class with a livelier curriculum: electronics, plumbing, home
economics, book keeping, basic computer, house painting,
gardening, a lot more physical education, shop, etc. Challenging
courses - a lot of poorly behaved students are brighter than you
think (just ask CR). Their not college material, give them the
skills for the real world. Also: business math., dance, map-reading,
the production of graphs. End remedial courses in college.
Those students don't belong in college. Many states are and are saving $s.
       In college, associate degrees should take 1 1/2 years not 2;
bachelors, 3 not 4. Reduce the core requirements: these students
should have acquired the basic skills in elementary and high school.
They should be focusing on their major and minor: specializing not
so much general subjects. Colleges will lose money because students
will be spending less time there. But, more students will want
to attend college and that's what we want. Imagine graduating
high schools at 16 instead of 18. What are you going to do? You
have an academic-regents diploma and you're being offered the
opportunity of earning an A.A. or A.A.S. when you're 17 or 18;
you might go for two associates (or three, if you were able to earn
one in high school). Graduating with a B.A. or B.S. at 19 or 20,
you have time for a second B.A. or B.S.(second takes 2 or less years) or
starting a master's or doctorate program). We must take into account the taxpayer
and student debt: no second associate accept for 'A' and 'B'
students - same for Bachelor's. More students might have to
work while in college - grants should be reduced to reduce
the deficit. We will be producing more graduates with more degrees
wherein they focused on their discipline of choice. 'C' and 'D'
students should be limited to one associate degree (unlikely since
they were "A' and 'B' students in high school). America will be more
competitive on the world stage for our students will be better educated
and no longer the victim of the liberal policy of homogenization:
bundling the able bodied with the disabled, the bright with the slow,
the well-behaved with the delinquents.
PROPOSAL 46: Return student loans to banks, It was unconstitutional
of Obama (17 constitutional infractions thus far by our count) to have
fed gov assume responsibility for student loans - private sector activity.
Just look at gov involvement (unconstitutional in nature) with Fannie,
Freddie and Amtrak.
PROPOSAL 13:
LUCKY 13 for CHILDREN. We should individually and, in our own words,
 phone our governor's office and speak to a staff member (supplying name is optional;
they keep records of citizen's position - a tally of pros and cons - and report most
interesting statements to their boss) and/or leave a message at his/her
 website. Ditto OUR representatives in state legislators and/or county
exec and/or mayor and/or council member.
       Convert all regular public schools into charter and magnet schools.
On average,  children in private schools (most of which our Christian, especially, Catholic)
 score higher    on national standardized and state-wide tests (which
helps prevent teachers from awarding social promotions - for example,
promoting a child who has failed fourth grade to fifth grade
for fear of damaging child's ego - isn't it more compassionate to say to child:
 "We care about you, we want you to master fourth grade and not get lost
and fall behind in fifth and have to be rewarded with another social
 promotion until you receive a meaningless  high school
diploma; of course, the vast majority of teachers give such promotions
to cover their tracks, they don't want to look bad with so many
failing students under their tutelage; further, it is virtually impossible for
 principals to fire incompetent teachers due to union.
You digress; on verge of A.D.D. attack) than home-schooled, magnet and charter
 kids who in turn score higher then regular public school youngsters. Regulars have
improved somewhat due to Bush's "No   Child Left Behind"
 (liberal-dominated media has lied about policy and results) but not
enough and won't progress any further due to teacher's unions. Public schools were
nearly as good as Catholic schools - academics and discipline - prior to the early 1960s.
What happened? In early '60s, the first and biggest teacher's union
 formed! Since then, on their orders, states pumped hundreds of billions of
additional dollars into public schools      and they got worse! Albert Shankor, the former
head of union, said in 1985: "We'll care          about the kids when they're old
enough to pay union dues." (By the way, on average it costs $10,000 a year to 'educate' a
regular public school child; $6,000 Catholic).
      The problem with regular public schools: teachers aren't paid enough and most
schools don't have the latest textbooks and/or computers and/or etc. They earn only an
average of 10% less then firemen and cops and their benefits and retirement packages
are better then theirs! Pay more and you'll have better teachers and better-performing kids...
Debate in progress...Charter and magnet school teachers are paid less then regular public
school teachers and can easily be fired for poor performance. Charters and Magnets
aren't as well-equipped as regulars.
     What possibly can explain this state-of-affairs? Unions have no control
 over charter schools and only limited control of magnets. Citizen Journalist
has a niece, Alexa (age 9) in a magnet plus is in Delta program and another niece,
 Katie, in a magnet. Their teachers are creative and innovative, their principals 
don't spend most of school day in their offices but in classrooms helping
students they suspect are falling behind and can
call teachers at home with homework questions (truly dedicated teachers!).
 Less then 20% of schools in most states are charters and magnets. Deplorable! 
Encouraging: some states are experimenting with virtual academies which
are sort of charter/magnet/home school combos. Discouraging:  Some
states where home schools are legal want to rescind their
legality claiming parents aren't qualified and don't possess teacher's licenses.
 But, they are outperforming your regular public school teachers! The real reason:
 Most parents who home-school are religious and object to immoralities
 being taught in public schools and incorporate religious training as part of 
curriculum. How dare they! Liberals object: they must be indoctrinated
 into liberalism like good, little brain-washed regulars.
     The hell with the socialist unions. Let's do what's right by the kids.
                                                                                                                                                       
Proposal 14:
Prohibit Unsupported Mandates. Fed gov dictates to states that they must do a
particular thing and fed gov contributes between 0% and 65% of the necessary funds.
It shouldn't be retro-active but we already proposed something to make up for that
fact in previous Chain letter: Reduce budgets for unconstitutional federal  departments
of Education, Agriculture, Housing, Interior, Transportation by over 75% over a period
of ten years with three-quarters going toward reducing deficit/debt and the remainder
being added to what fed gov already gives to the states in these areas - and with no
strings attached! The new fed committees (no longer departments) should monitor how
money is spent (without dictating how it is spent), propose programs to states in these
areas and if state is interested, fed gov must fully fund it! Returning to Mandates: Fed
gov must prove that they have the constitutional authority (no more abusing commerce
clause) to order it and then fully fund it, preferably, each state would design its own       program
to carry it out. (Healthcare too!; it is not constitutionally within the domain of  national government - let
 each state design Medicaid and Medicare programs while fed     
  gov is responsible for trillions of debt and fraud due to their mismanagement of these       
 programs). Restoring powers to states unconstitutionally stolen by an increasingly
distant and powerful and incompetent dictatorial Washington D.C. (Washington must
be rolling in his grave for he had left us a Federalist Republic with an Amendment 10 in
the Bill of Rights). Gov unions will object. Who ever heard of (public) servants on
average making 25% more than those they serve!- salaries and benefits.
This is bad for America: private sector workers produce, gov workers spend and spend
and spend. We borrow and borrow principally from China and the Federal Reserve Bank
orders Treasury Department to print more money (Federal Reserve Notes; Fed Reserve Bank Funny Money)
 but, you say, inflation is at a record low of .9 (under brand new system  inflation figure no longer
 includes rise in food and energy costs! - go back to old system      and stop trying to fool
 citizens/consumers;  since Fed was created  in 1913 the value of $ has declined 85% in value
 and 20% since 1999 - - these are the real inflation numbers - - - read them and weep!
An A.D.D.-ing, we will go!

Proposal 15:
Student Loans, Water, and more commerce clause abuse.  In a recent power-grab, Obama took
student loans away from banks - think Fannie and Freddie - and announced that  all water in and
 around the U.S., including, the puddle in front of your house belongs to fed   gov! Even intra-state water: 
rivers, streams, lakes, ponds that aren't shared by more than      one state will be regulated by
overweight Uncle Sam.  Americans put him on a diet!      Pregnant with power 'his' water is 
 about to break.

Proposal 16:
Just say "no!" to 'stimulus' packages. According to the Federal Reserve Bank branch in
San Francisco the $1 TRILLION-PLUS 'stimulus' created zero000zero new jobs!; Obama
claims that it created or saved 2 million jobs - according to Fed branch: the actual figure
was much less and were all temporary jobs that those who had them have waved 'goodbye'
to them.

Proposal 17:
Privacy vs. security. Union of Socialist Secular States of America. Citizen Journalist
doesn't fly; doesn't go outside. In exile in the former United States of America.
Nonetheless, is concerned about cyber-friends experiencing the unconstitutional, immoral,
unnecessary breach of privacy and rights. Being treated like a criminal without a search
warrant or probable cause which can be easily rectified by exercising some common
sense. Proposals: 1) Place SENTINEL which was at "Reagan International Airport" back
there and at other airports - it kind of sniffs: you walk through and feel puffs of air, a
vacuum device sucks in air with particles dislodged from head to shoes or socks before
particles hit the floor, it can determine if person was near a bomb or materials used to
make bombs; 2) Randomly use metal-detecting wand which guard runs 'all over your
body' at a distance of about half a foot, no contact; 3) Profile! Not babies and blue-haired
old ladies.  



Proposal 18:
America's Destiny. In  previous chain letters, we discussed NASA's role as the premier 
technological engine of our economy, the future of space exploration and the major role
our space program should play in what should be our effort to attain energy independence.
Project NERVA (see previous letters) involved NASA, Atomic Energy Commission, Los   Alamos
Scientific Lab, AreoJet and Westinghouse from 1963-73. The facilities should be restored and
 upgraded. They've been neglected.
       The Space Nuclear Propulsion Office might have to be reactivated or not. It was
established so that NASA and AEC could work together in this classified program.
Last year, Obama signed a directive enabling NASA and the military to work more
closely together. We, unlike Obama, have been making proposals toward that end. He
might just need to sign another directive which he wouldn't be inclined to do, unless, we
order him. Of course, this raises the issue of the constitutionality of executive orders which
circumvent congress. Congress should reactivate.
     We suggested looking into feasibility of combining Orion/Ares 1 and Ares 5 with three
stages or two stages with two reusable liquid booster (not solid) rockets. The top stage
should be nuclear thermal or VASIMR plasma unlike the other stage (s) which would be
the traditional chemical. It should be used for "Constitution" (our name for what we
believe will soon be the operational AF X-37B). We propose ascertaining if we can do
something unorthodox: creating doughnut- or tire-shaped (long) stage for Orion-version
so that thermal nuclear or plasma stage (aka moon-transfer module and Mars-transfer    module)
 can surround (we build on our proposals with each letter) Orion or Orion-like
craft. Hydrogen or plasma would protect crew from solar wind and cosmic radiation
(actually not radiation but plasma). H or P would be surrounded by magnetic field (to
contain it) which would supply much greater protection like magnetic field protects us on earth
 from solar wind and cosmic rays.
     The plasma propulsion system definitely and the thermal nuclear, perhaps, can vary
exhaust velocity; this can help reduce propellant usage and improve acceleration at
different stages of flight  - - don't deviate too much exhaust velocity and
vehicle speed  for that would degrade not enhance performance. 

Proposal 19: 
Useless U.N. Exit U.N. and kick it out of U.S.! We pay 25% of its budget and the
majority of nations are enemies or semi-enemies. It passes useless resolutions which it
can't enforce because of pathetic peace-keepers without testicles. The humanitarian/
charitable programs are fraught with fraud. They still violate our laws claiming diplomatic
immunity. It serves no valuable function. We just learned that Obama has been giving
-bribing - nations to vote for climate change/cattle fart/lack of appropriate peer review/
questionable sources/hockey stick graph/george soros, al gore get richer/ global
warming pseudo-science plans. Carbon emissions? It is not settled science so China
and India not motivated to what? Undo what they have been working for since about
1980: moving from third-world status to developing nation to industrial nation by
instituting expensive emission filters. Carbon won't decline significantly without them.
Obama wants us to do it anyway so your energy bills can rise and companies won't be
able to create as many jobs us they can otherwise. Only libs favor useless U.N. - which
is another reason to kick it into the Atlantic!

Proposal 20:
U.S.-Russia Arms Treaty. Nixon SALT was good; Nixon-Ford-Carter Salt 2 was good;
Reagan START was better. We would have high-tech missile shield with tech benefiting
other aspects of economy as well if Nixon's ABM wasn't canceled by dem-controlled
congress in '72 and Reagan's SDI not been considerably shrunk by clinton and other
dems. Rogue nations and terrorist orgs. Bush unilaterally did away with ABM treaty
claiming it was signed by U.S. and Soviet Union and Soviet Union no longer exists!
He finally persuaded our friends, Poland and Czech Republic, who fearful of Russia, to
put part of shield in their countries during his last year in office and Obama undid
during his first year by caving to Russian pressure and  a vindictive Russia has,
nonetheless, promised to punish our two allies. It would place unacceptable constraints
on missile defense and replacing nuclear warheads on missiles with conventional ones
which Russia can't afford and doesn't possess the technical know-how. Giving away 
advantages U.S.
       Stop treating Russia as if it were still a super-power. Dictate terms of a treaty that
doesn't forgo our advantages. Don't make our plans subject to a Russian
veto. One more thing: we can only inspect their declared sites for compliance! Obama sold out U.S.A.
in arms treaty he signed with Russians last year!

ATBTC. Together...A New Beginning (Reagan's main campaign slogan in 1980).
