For this to work, however, the rulers needed to convince the peasants that the regime would protect them from predators in return for their regular remittances. That's right: It was a protection racket, from which the racketeers and their cronies profited handsomely. For the taxpayers, there was little choice in the matter. They weren't buying protection as people buy insurance in the market, and they weren't paying dues as they would later pay dues to mutual-aid societies. They paid or they were punished. The ideology of benevolent state protection reduced enforcement costs because the ruled outnumbered the rulers and widespread tax resistance would have doomed the regime. Things have changed little in our time.</blockquote> <a href="http://www.theprojecttorestoreamerica.com/Essay/214/Romanticizing-Taxation?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+pra%2Frss+%28The+Project+To+Restore+America%29">Read it all.</a> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/romanticizing-taxation.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-12-07T13:57:00-06:00'>1:57 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/433205863287066497' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>2 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/433205863287066497' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/taxation' rel='tag'>taxation</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=433205863287066497&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Thursday, December 06, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='7957796128183724703'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/that-pesky-debt-ceiling.html'>That Pesky Debt Ceiling</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> The central government is again getting close to its debt ceiling. Fearing another game of chicken between the White House and congressional Republicans, the risk of default, and another downgrading of the U.S. credit rating, some people want President Obama to bypass Congress and raise the ceiling by executive order. Others would dispense with the ceiling altogether. Obama vaguely says he will not go through what he had to go through with Congress last year. I hope they don't raise the debt ceiling. In fact I favor repudiation of the government debt, since it is based on the immoral power to wield aggressive force. A voluntary government creditor takes his chances.<br /> <br /> Here's the one thing that I find amusing in this discussion: Pundits and others who favor limitless government insist that raising the debt ceiling won't permit the government to spend more money; it merely let's the government pay its current bills. If that is so, it's not very comforting. It means the government incurred obligations without knowing for sure that it would have the money to pay its bills. Why is it allowed to do that?<br /> <br /> Oh, that's right. It's the government. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/that-pesky-debt-ceiling.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-12-06T11:25:00-06:00'>11:25 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/7957796128183724703' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>1 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/7957796128183724703' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/debt%20ceiling' rel='tag'>debt ceiling</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=7957796128183724703&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='1052900150747387155'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/israel-hypocrisy-runs-thick.html'>Israel's Hypocrisy Runs Thick</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> The Israeli leadership is about as interested in a two-state solution with the Palestinians as the U.S. leadership is in liquidating the American empire. That was clear even before <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/01/world/middleeast/israel-moves-to-expand-settlements-in-east-jerusalem.html">the latest announced plan</a> to build 3,000 Jewish-only homes in East Jerusalem and on the West Bank. The timing of the announcement, though surely not the plan itself, is related to the Palestinians' successful bid to upgrade their status at the UN. Israel seems to be quaking at the prospect of the Palestinians' going to the International Criminal Court with their grievances -- as well they should. <br /> <br /> Listen carefully to what Israel's and America's leaders say. They admonish the Palestinians that their "unilateral" action undermines negotiations. What a laugh! Negotiations are supposed to be about land, but Israel insists on annexing Palestinians' land during negotiations! When the Palestinians insist that they will not talk until Israel stops building Jewish-only settlements on their land, which was seized in a war, Israel responds that there must be no preconditions to negotiations. That's as insult to everyone's intelligence. Yet Israel has gotten away with this for years. <br /> <br /> Israel is simply doing what it has always done in its quest for the land between the Mediterranean and the Jordan. It is establishing irrevocable facts on the ground. The only peace it wants is the one that will result from wearing down and demoralizing the Palestinians. In light of its spectacular failure to prevail over Hamas last month in the Gaza Strip, the Israelis must attach a new urgency to their grand strategy. <br /> <br /> More and more observers are concluding that the two-state solution is long dead. In light of the facts on the ground, it's hard to rebut this judgment. It certainly appears that there will be only one country between the Mediterranean and the Jordan. The only question is whether it will be racist or not. <br /> <br /> The Obama administration will bluster a bit, but in the end we know where it will stand: in "lockstep" with Israel. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/israel-hypocrisy-runs-thick.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-12-06T07:40:00-06:00'>7:40 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/1052900150747387155' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>2 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/1052900150747387155' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Israel' rel='tag'>Israel</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestine' rel='tag'>Palestine</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestinians' rel='tag'>Palestinians</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Zionism' rel='tag'>Zionism</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1052900150747387155&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Wednesday, December 05, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='9114768490111717943'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/12/how-rich-rule.html'>How the Rich Rule</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> My article by that name is <a href="http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/how-the-rich-rule/">now online</a> at <i>The American Conservative</i>.

Even after the withdrawal, Israel continued to wield overwhelming power over Gaza’s economy and external trade; it maintained control of Gaza’s water, electricity, and telecommunication networks; refused to allow Gaza a functioning airport, seaport, or commercial crossing on its border with Egypt, thus radically cutting Gazan trade and commerce with the outside world; restricted the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza; prevented farmers from tending to and harvesting their fields and crops; placed severe restrictions on the importation of water for drinking as well as irrigation purposes; and re- served the “right” to launch military incursions at will, periodically bombing and shelling Gaza’s electrical generating system, roads, bridges, farms, and olive orchards. Consequently, even before Cast Lead, the Gazan economy was on the verge of collapse; nearly 95 percent of all factories operating in Gaza had closed down; unemployment ranged from 45 to 60 percent; and 80 percent of Gazans were estimated to be below international poverty lines. Outright starvation was averted by outside assistance, but malnutrition was rampant; the minimal imports of food supplies allowed by Israel were carefully calibrated to prevent a famine, but not more than that.</blockquote> Read this important article to understand the background of what's going on today. Gaza has has been under Israeli oppression since 1967. One can disapprove of the Gazans' particular tactics (lobbing rockets at civilian areas) while acknowledging that resistance to occupation is legitimate both morally and in international law. When you place people in a desperate position, you can't be surprised when they use any weapons they can get their hands on. The disparity in power and casualties between the Israelis and Gazans (and Palestinians in general) is too obvious to require elaboration.<br /> <br /> Slater's paper is also crucial to understanding Israel's long-executed policy of targeting noncombatants and civilian infrastructure, not only  Palestinians, but also Egyptians and Lebanese too. When Israel's Labor Party criticized Menachem Begin's Likud government for targeting noncombatants in Lebanon in 1981, Begin responded by documenting similar conduct by Labor governments. No one denied Begin's counterclaim.<br /> <br /> This is what we're dealing with--and Americans are forced to pay for it. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/israeli-assault-on-gaza-has-no-basis-in.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-11-17T08:45:00-06:00'>8:45 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/5200482022823509461' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>0 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/5200482022823509461' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Gaza' rel='tag'>Gaza</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Israel' rel='tag'>Israel</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Operation%20Cast%20Lead' rel='tag'>Operation Cast Lead</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestine' rel='tag'>Palestine</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestinians' rel='tag'>Palestinians</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=5200482022823509461&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Friday, November 16, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='217833533530775379'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/tgif-is-back.html'>TGIF Is Back!</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> Now at <a href="http://fff.org/explore-freedom/article/tgif-love-the-market/">The Future of Freedom Foundation</a>'s new website!

See John Glaser's <a href="http://antiwar.com/blog/2012/11/11/israels-latest-assault-on-gaza-the-lie-of-who-started-it/">"Israel’s Latest Assault on Gaza: The Lie of Who Started It."</a><br /> <br /> Second, the just-assassinated Hamas leader, Ahmed Jabari, was in the process of negotiating a permanent truce with Israel. See the <i>Haaretz </i>report <a href="http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/israeli-peace-activist-hamas-leader-jabari-killed-amid-talks-on-long-term-truce.premium-1.478085">"Israeli peace activist: Hamas leader Jabari killed amid talks on long-term truce."</a> According to the daily  newspaper, "[Israeli peace activist Gershon]<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> Baskin told Haaretz on Thursday that senior officials in Israel knew about his contacts with Hamas and Egyptian intelligence aimed at formulating the permanent truce, but nevertheless approved the assassination."</blockquote> I submit that Jabari's willingness to talk true and his assassination are no coincidence. Israel does not want to see Hamas evolve. It needs an enemy.<br /> <br /> More things to keep in mind:<br /> <br /> Gaza has been under an Israeli blockade for years. Needed goods are kept out.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article10456.htm">Israel helped to make Hamas what it is today.</a> Years ago it promoted the organization as an alternative to the secular Fatah. Why? To splinter the Palestinians. If Israel now considers Hamas a mortal threat, it has only itself to blame. This is a case of blowback.<br /> <br /> Israel's partisans refer to Hamas's declaration of war on Jews in its charter as a reason for scoffing at the idea that real negotiations are possible with the organization. That charter may be put in perspective by noting the words of David Ben-Gurion, Israel's founding prime minister:<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> <span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">‎Why should the Arabs make peace? If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country.... We have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?</span></blockquote> All Zionist leaders were aware of that fact.<br /> <br /> Nevertheless, Hamas has distanced itself from the charter and has shown a willingness to talk, as we've seen.The Israeli response has been assassination, bombing, and ground invasion. It is not Hamas that has consistently violated cease-fires.<br /> <br /> Finally, one need not condone the shooting of rockets into southern Israel to care about the context. In 1948 Zionist paramilitary forces drove Palestinians out of their villages in the south and pushed them into the Gaza Strip. Many Gazans are refugees or descendants of refugees of the Nakba. The violence may be inexcusable, but it is not unprovoked.<br /> <br /> See <a href="http://mondoweiss.net/2012/11/dead-mothers-teachers-and-babies-in-gaza-yet-media-overwhelmingly-focuses-on-rocket-fire-into-israeli.html">this roundup</a> of the violence from Mondoweiss. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-attack-on-gaza.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-11-16T10:34:00-06:00'>10:34 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/1519550260775359093' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>0 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/1519550260775359093' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Gaza' rel='tag'>Gaza</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Hamas' rel='tag'>Hamas</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Israel' rel='tag'>Israel</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestine' rel='tag'>Palestine</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestinians' rel='tag'>Palestinians</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1519550260775359093&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Tuesday, November 13, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='582705096463710717'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/opting-out-of-state.html'>Opting Out of the State</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> The freedom to opt out means that no one can force you to participate in any government activity that you object to....

This letter became known as the “Balfour Declaration”.<br /> <br /> In that letter, Balfour promised British support for the Zionist programme of establishing a “national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine. This pledge of support was made <i>without consulting the indigenous Christian and Muslim inhabitants of Palestine, the Palestinian people</i>. And it was made before British troops had even conquered the land.<br /> <br /> Balfour, on behalf of Britain, promised Palestine – over which Britain had no legal right – to a people who did not even live there (of the very small community of Palestinian Jews in Palestine in 1917, very few were Zionists). And he did so with the worst of intentions: to discourage Jewish immigration to Britain. <i>No wonder Lord Montagu, the only Jewish member of the Cabinet, opposed the declaration.</i></blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> And yet, just two years earlier, Britain had committed herself to assisting the Arab nations in achieving their independence from the Ottoman Empire. [Emphasis added.]</blockquote> What followed was a monstrous injustice committed against the Palestinians--the <i>Nakba</i>--set in motion by this British act. The Palestinians have suffered terribly at the hands of those who were intent on founding the Jewish state of Israel no matter the cost--<i>to the Palestinians</i>. And the rest of the world has lived with the turmoil--the constant threat of war and economic disruption--bequeathed by the British imperialists ever since.  Most of the men responsible for this crime probably died peacefully in their sleep. Justice is not guaranteed in our world.<br /> <br /> Read the <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/palestinianauthority/9645925/Britain-must-atone-for-its-sins-in-Palestine.html">full article</a>. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-anniversary-of-imperialist-act-that.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-11-02T14:40:00-05:00'>2:40 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/6883514503027420909' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>0 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/6883514503027420909' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Balfour%20Declaration' rel='tag'>Balfour Declaration</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Israel' rel='tag'>Israel</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestine' rel='tag'>Palestine</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestinians' rel='tag'>Palestinians</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Zionism' rel='tag'>Zionism</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=6883514503027420909&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Thursday, November 01, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='1634084683425767014'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/11/sr-to-fff.html'>SR to FFF</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div><p>I am honored to announce I have been named vice president of The Future of Freedom Foundation.

(That's not the same as "the economy.") The rub is that it's driven by consumer and government spending. Real economic growth requires investment, and investment has not recovered. But private (real) investment requires savings--that is, <i>deferred</i> consumption. So increased consumption is not a path to economic growth. Increased <i>sustainable </i>consumer spending is an effect not a cause of economic growth.<br /> <div> <br /></div> <div> Government of course tries to stimulate consumer spending, since policymakers are stuck in the Keynesian mindset (that is, uninterested in the time structure of production). One way it does this is by keeping interests abysmally low. Why save if you get so little for your money, perhaps less than the increase in the CPI? You're just losing purchasing power.</div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/10/so-gdp-is-growing-at-about-2.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-10-27T09:33:00-05:00'>9:33 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/171113679958098308' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

He warns against granting "private" corporate monopolies, which are not true privatizations, but act as arms of the state. He adds that for many state activities, the best way to privatize is not to provide the service at all — as in the case of punishing victimless crimes, which no one should do. For legitimate services, he recommends a "homesteading" approach, in which stakeholders in a public service, such as a school, would receive shares in a new, independent corporation.</blockquote> See the <a href="http://www.cato-unbound.org/2012/10/01/sheldon-richman/from-state-to-society/">full article</a>. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-case-for-socialization-of-means-of.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-10-01T11:23:00-05:00'>11:23 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/3140762328644450740' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>0 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/3140762328644450740' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/competition' rel='tag'>competition</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/freed%20market' rel='tag'>freed market</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/market%20process' rel='tag'>market process</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/privatization' rel='tag'>privatization</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=3140762328644450740&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Saturday, September 29, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='8116148387160619900'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/just-another-day-under-israeli-rule.html'>Just Another Day Under Israeli Rule</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> From <a href="http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4287018,00.html">Ynetnews</a><br /> <b><span style="font-size: large;">'Turning Bedouin village into Jewish settlement is racist'</span></b><br /> <b><br /></b> <b>Government's decision to convert Umm al-Hiran into Jewish settlement enrages Bedouin residents; 'You can’t just take an Arab and put a Jew in his place.

font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">"</span></span>tampering with, exploiting, and deleting our history" as a way to negate the rights of Palestinians. "The way the Israeli establishment uses our history from the 1950s, is not in order to give us our rights back, but in order to get rid of the rights of the Palestinians, and avoiding a peace agreement with them,” Almog Behar, founder of Committee of Baghdadi Jews in Ramat-Gan, wrote to the website <a href="http://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/iraqi-jews-reject-cynical-manipulation-their-history-israel-zionists-writer-almog">The Electronic Intifada</a>.<br /> <br /> The Iraqi Jews are trying to recover the property they left behind in Iraq, but they object to the Israeli government's attempt to have that property cancel out Palestinian claims to the property they lost during the Nakba, or catastrophe associated with the founding of the state of Israel. The Committee states:<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> We are seeking to demand compensation for our lost property and assets from the Iraqi government--NOT from the Palestinian Authority--and we will not agree with the option that compensation for our property be offset by compensation for the lost property of others (meaning, Palestinian refugees) or that said compensation be transferred to bodies that do not represent us (meaning, the Israeli government).</blockquote> The article at the site also discusses long-disclosed information that Jews left Iraq not because of pressure from the Iraqi government but because of false-flag operations by the Israeli Mossad. The Committee stated:<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> We demand the establishment of an investigative committee to examine:</blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> 1) If and by what means negotiations were carried out in 1950 between Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion and Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri as-Said, and if Ben-Gurion informed as-Said that he is authorized to take possession of the property and assets of Iraqi Jewry if he agreed to send them to Israel;</blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> 2) who ordered the bombing of the Masouda Shem-Tov synagogue in Baghdad, and if the Israeli Mossad and/or its operatives were involved. If it is determined that Ben-Gurion did, in fact, carry out negotiations over the fate of Iraqi Jewish property and assets in 1950, and directed the Mossad to bomb the community’s synagogue in order to hasten our flight from Iraq, we will file a suit in an international court demanding half of the sum total of compensation for our refugee status from the Iraqi government and half from the Israeli government.</blockquote> The Electronic Intifada site features a video interview with the late <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Ben-Gurions-Scandals-Haganah-Mossad-Eliminated/dp/1893302407">Naeim Giladi</a>, "an Iraqi Jew who joined the Zionist underground as a young man in Iraq and later came to regret his role in fostering the departure of some 125,000 Jews from Iraq." <br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Emq94B17zXo" width="420"></iframe> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/iraqi-jews-tell-israel-to-stop.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-24T08:43:00-05:00'>8:43 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/1437962450680171671' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

On his recent visit to Israel he explained the economic disparity between Israel and the Palestinians territories by saying "culture makes all the difference." (Occupation? What occupation?) And in a follow-up, undoubtedly ghost-written article in National Review, <a href="http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/312830/culture-does-matter-mitt-romney">"Culture Does Matter,"</a> he elaborated, "[W]hat exactly accounts for prosperity if not culture?" <br /> <br />  But then--incoherently--he added on <a href="http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/07/31/romney-defends-culture-remark-which-drew-palestinian-ire/">Fox News</a>, "I'm not speaking about, did not speak about, the Palestinian culture [!!!], or the decisions made in their economy. That's an interesting topic that deserves scholarly analysis, but I actually didn't address that [!!!]. I certainly don't plan to address that during my campaign. Instead, I will point out, the choices a society makes have a profound impact on the economy and the vitality of that society."<br /> <br /> What about a society under occupation and oppression by a foreign power, where every aspect of life--including trade--is under the heel of the Israeli military? Where a fortified wall snakes through the victimized people's land, separating their homes from their farms and cutting their towns off from each other? As the <i><a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Foreign-Policy/2012/0730/Mitt-Romney-in-Jerusalem-Another-city-another-gaffe-or-two">Christian Science Monitor </a></i>put it, "No mention from the would-be US president of the trade and mobility restrictions that Israel maintains over the occupied territories of the West Bank and Gaza–restrictions that both the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund have said for years are key factors in hampering Palestinian economic growth."<br /> <br /> Never mind that when they have the chance, Palestinians engage in entrepreneurship and open universities. Can't mention that, though.

All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. . . . These are people who pay no income tax. Forty-seven percent of Americans pay no income tax. So our message of low taxes doesn't connect. . . . And so my job is not to worry about those people—I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.</blockquote> This quote is from the infamous <a href="http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/09/watch-full-secret-video-private-romney-fundraiser">surreptitious video</a> made of Mitt Romney's speech at a fundraiser last spring. What are we to make of it?<br /> <br /> The first thing to note is that Romney is typical of the right wing of the ruling elite, which often portrays lower income beneficiaries of the welfare state as a threat to the established order. In this view, they are dependent on government; they wish to remain that way; and they see themselves as victims.<br /> <br /> Of course many people who qualify for welfare-state benefits take advantage of them, but it doesn't follow that they want to remain in that postion. Katherine S. Newman, author of <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chutes-Ladders-Navigating-Low-Wage-Market/dp/0674027531/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1348150012&sr=8-4&keywords=katherine+newman">Chutes and Ladders: Navigating the Low-Wage Labor Market</a> </i>and <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/No-Shame-My-Game-Working/dp/0375703799/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1348150127&sr=8-2&keywords=katherine+newman">No Shame in My Game: The Working Poor in the Inner City</a></i>, maintains that low-income people are far more industrious and ambitious, as well as determined to achieve independence, than the public generally believes. (Listen to her <a href="http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2010/03/newman_on_low-w.html">EconTalk</a> conversation with Russ Roberts.)<br /> <br /> Far less interested in independence from government are the large corporations, banks and otherwise, that exist by virtue of government contracts, guarantees, bailouts, and intellectual "property." The government's security establishment provides untold opportunities for companies to live off the taxpayers, which is much more secure than attempting to achieve market share among consenting consumers. (See Nick Turse's<i> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Complex-Military-Everyday-American/dp/0805089195/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348142849&sr=8-1&keywords=nick+turse">The Complex: How the Military Invades Our Everyday Lives</a></i>.)<br /> <br /> Strangely, Romney's speech had nothing to say about <i>that </i>sort of corrupting dependence.<br /> <br /> As for feeling like victims, the working poor didn't seem to display this attitude to Newman during her extensive field research. Yet why wouldn't they be justified in regarding themselves as such? The corporate state, with its myriad barriers to competitive economic activity, including self-employment, blocks many routes to prosperity.<br /> <br /> By the way, while many lower income people pay no income tax, they do get hit with the regressive <i>payroll </i>(FICA)<i> </i>tax, which until recently helped fund the government's general operations. While formally, employers pay one half of that tax, in fact most or all of the employer's share comes out of workers' pay.<br /> <br /> Romney is trying to distract attention with a 14-year-old audio of then-State Senator Barack Obama endorsing a mild form of income "redistribution." Government distribution of wealth, of course, is objectionable, just as government itself is. But Romney to date has had nothing to say about the systematic <i>upward </i>transfer of wealth that the corporate state effects in a variety of way. To offer just two examples: Intellectual "property" law prohibits free competition, creates artificial scarcities and thus extra-market profits, and privatizes value that would have naturally been "socialized" in a freed market. Second, barriers to competition (again, including self-employment) reduce the bidding for labor and hence workers' bargaining power, resulting in lower wages than would otherwise be seen in a freed market. (See these articles by <a href="http://www.thefreemanonline.org/features/scratching-by-how-government-creates-poverty-as-we-know-it/">Charles W. Johnson</a> and <a href="http://www.thefreemanonline.org/features/government-is-no-friend-of-the-poor/">Gary Chartier</a>.)<br /> <br /> It is certainly true that no one is entitled to other people's stuff. That is just as true of the powerful and well-connected business interests that through government intervention amass great wealth at the expense of the rest of us.<br /> <br /> When Romney begins talking about <i>that </i>sort of "redistribution of wealth" I will start to take him seriously. <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/romney-and-47-percent.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-20T07:02:00-05:00'>7:02 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/3162187237659920971' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

military Keynesianism and the Korean war as the factors in US recovery after that war; underdevelopment in the Third World, consequence of dependency that was created by imperialism . . . ; the increasing role of finance in the operations of capitalism. . . ." <br /> <br /> The implied debunking of the standard left-right fairy tale that constitutes most people's notion of American history, is--or should be--of great interest to libertarians, who ought to understand that capitalism equals, not radically decentralized freed markets, but exploitative corporatism.That insight and attitude are what drew me and my left-libertarian comrades to Alex. My last contact with him was to ask that he blurb a book to which I contributed, Markets Not Capitalism, edited by Gary Chartier and Charles W. Johnson. He delivered the blurb: "We on the left need a good shake to get us thinking, and these arguments for market anarchism do the job in lively and thoughtful fashion." <br /> <br /> Unfortunately, I only met Alex once, in 2008. We both spoke at an extraordinary conference put on by the Future of Freedom Foundation in Reston, Virginia titled "Restoring the Republic: Foreign Policy and Civil Liberties." What was extraordinary was that this well-attended anti-empire, pro-Bill of Rights gathering featured the most prominent conservatives, progressives, leftists, and libertarians who were alarmed about imperial war and domestic tyranny. They included: Glenn Greenwald, Bruce Fein, Stephen Kinzer, Robert Higgs, Justin Raimondo, and Ron Paul.<br /> <br /> I knew of Alex's work long before that, and followed his writings in The Village Voice, The Nation, even The War Street Journal. Now, finally, I would have my chance to talk to him. (He had already published me at CounterPunch.) He did not disappoint; he was funny and charming, and interested in what subversion I was up to. I'd like to think we hit it off. <br /> <br /> In his wonderfully wide-ranging talk, he discussed the prospect of an alliance between the libertarians and his kind of left. "There has to be more utopianism, and there has to be more straightforward spirit of mutiny, which I think you libertarians are good at offering. If the left would offer a little bit of utopia-some of the utopia may differ-then I think we can continue to have an enjoyable and hopefully a creative association."<br /> <br /> When I asked him to elaborate in the Q&A, he referred to an earlier attempted alliance, namely, the old Inquiry magazine (which I helped edit, 1982-1984), which assembled the best anti-statists no matter where they placed themselves on the political spectrum. Acknowledging that there are "some big issues [between libertarians and him] that . . . have to be sorted through," he continued, "I think a battle of the ideas, maybe one a year, would be a lot of fun. We should talk about it. I hope we do."

Between 500 and 700 children are arrested every year and many suffer lasting psychological damage as a result. Children are also traumatized when their home is raided by the army. In a typical raid, masked Israeli soldiers in full combat gear break into a home after midnight with their guns pointed, often accompanied by dogs. As the terrified children look on, they ransack the house and, if they are bored, vandalize it. The army carried out 63 raids in the West Bank during the first 10 days of July alone.</blockquote> <div style="text-align: right;"> Rachelle Marshall, "Romney Goes All Out for the Israel Lobby"</div> <div style="text-align: right;"> <i><a href="http://www.wrmea.com/">Washington Report on Middle East Affairs</a></i>, October 2012 </div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/israels-crimes-against-humanity.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-19T07:06:00-05:00'>7:06 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/1526627169056140747' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>24 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/1526627169056140747' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Israel' rel='tag'>Israel</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Occupied%20Territories' rel='tag'>Occupied Territories</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestine' rel='tag'>Palestine</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Palestinians' rel='tag'>Palestinians</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/West%20Bank' rel='tag'>West Bank</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=1526627169056140747&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='995628147452186412'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-constitution-or-liberty.html'>The Constitution or Liberty</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> Someone excerpted the last four minutes of a lecture I gave at a FEE seminar a few summers ago.

First, the war isn't over. Sectarian violence is still commonplace. The millions of refugees created by the U.S invasion in 2003 still have not returned home.</div> <div style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 18.984848022460938px;"> <br /></div> <div style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 18.984848022460938px;"> Second, Obama withdrew the last U.S. troops only because George W.

How many Jews outside Israel consider Netanyahu their leader in a religious or any other sense? How many inside Israel?<br /> <br /> And what exactly <i>is </i>the Jewish People? Is it a race, an ethnic group, a religious community that comprises people of all races and ethnicities?

In <a href="http://video.msnbc.msn.com/rock-center/49027583">this clip</a>, reporter Richard Engel blames this week's anti-American violence on "conspiracy theories" that Arab populations have been fed over the years by their rulers, including the idea that the United States and Israel are colluding to control the Middle East.</blockquote> <blockquote> It's no secret there are conspiracy theories circulating in the Middle East (as there are here in the good old USA: Remember the "birthers?") I've heard them every time I've lectured in the region and done my best to debunk them. But by attributing Arab and Muslim anger solely to these ideas, Engel's report paints a picture of the United States (and by implication, Israel) as wholly blameless. In his telling, the U.S. has had nothing but good intentions for the past century, but the intended beneficiaries of our generosity don't get it solely because they've been misled by their leaders.</blockquote> <blockquote> In short, Operation Cast Lead never happened, Lebanon wasn't invaded in 1982 or bombed relentlessly for a month in 2006, the United States has never turned a blind eye towards repeated human rights violations by every single one of its Middle Eastern allies, drones either don't exist or never killed an innocent victim, the occupation of Iraq in 2003 was just a little misunderstanding, and the Palestinians ought to be grateful to us for what they've been left after forty-plus years of occupation. To say this in no way absolves governments in the region for responsibility for many of their current difficulties, but Americans do themselves no favors by ignoring our own contribution to the region's ills.</blockquote> <blockquote> In short, you want to get some idea of why most Americans have no idea why we are unpopular in the region, this example of sanitized "analysis" is illuminating, though not in the way that Engel and NBC intended.</blockquote> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/why-americans-dont-understand-middle.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-15T08:24:00-05:00'>8:24 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/4113594555583701352' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

Long's <a href="http://c4ss.org/content/12581">"Why Objective Law Requires Anarchy,"</a> which responds to one of the most common libertarian (and Objectivist) challenges to market anarchism. Here are a few highlights intended to entice:<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> . . . I see anarchism as the logical conclusion of the checks-and-balances approach. The point of checks and balances is to put a brake on the tendency of political institutions to aggrandize power by arranging it so that a power grab by one part of the system will trigger opposition by other parts of the system. This was the idea behind the U. S. Constitution, with its federalism and division of powers. Unfortunately, it failed, as the supposedly antagonistic parts learned the benefits of working together to oppress the people. From an anarchist perspective, the problem with the minarchist version of checks and balances is that it does not go far enough; the opposing parts are too few in number, and too closely linked together in a single overarching institution.</blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> I once opposed anarchism precisely because I was so convinced (largely as a result of reading Isabel Paterson’s The God of the Machine) of the importance of constitutional structure. I assumed (as Paterson had) that there is no constitutional structure under anarchy. But it now seems to me that precisely the opposite is true: the competitive market provides a much more sophisticated and complex constitutional structure than any state monopoly. . . . </blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> The fundamental question is this: under which system—market competition or government monopoly—is abuse of power more likely?</blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> But the problem is not one of evil motivations alone. Even a state run by saints would face an informational problem. Just as the most well-intentioned central planner would be unable to make objective decisions about economic production, consumption, and distribution, because the information generated by the spontaneous market order would be inaccessible to him, so without the competitive, evolutionary process through which law originated and developed before the state, a centralized legislature would be unable to make objective decisions about which legal rules and procedures work best.</blockquote> <br /> <br /> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/roderick-long-on-anarchism-and.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-14T10:36:00-05:00'>10:36 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/8336048808304019884' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>0 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/8336048808304019884' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/anarchism' rel='tag'>anarchism</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/law' rel='tag'>law</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/market%20anarchism' rel='tag'>market anarchism</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Roderick%20Long' rel='tag'>Roderick Long</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/Rule%20of%20Law' rel='tag'>Rule of Law</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8336048808304019884&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Thursday, September 13, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='6856229812130014179'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/as-we-search-for-monsters-we-create-them.html'>"As We Search for Monsters, We Create Them"</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> When a country conducts foreign policy like the United States, you really can't be shocked when violence is directed toward its officials.<br /> <div> <br /></div> <div> As former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia <a href="http://mepc.org/articles-commentary/speeches/nobodys-century-american-prospect-post-imperial-times">Charles W.

Here's an example. Many years ago the city of Berkeley, California, (if I remember correctly) had a public referendum on whether to outlaw <i>all </i>electroshock, or "electro-convulsive therapy [sic]." Tom endorsed the ban. But he was a libertarian, so how could he possibly support a ban on even <i>voluntary</i> electroshock?<br /> <br /> Simple. He knew that electroshock was far more likely to be used on people against their will. In the unlikely case that someone <i>wanted </i>it, he or she could go to a neighboring community. The net result of a ban would be that no one could be subjected to that barbaric procedure against his or her will within the borders of Berkeley.

It is the presentation of facts belonging to one category in the idioms belonging to another. To explode a myth is accordingly not to deny the facts but to re-allocate them. </blockquote> Tom spent his life patiently trying to explain that he was not denying facts, just re-allocating them.

I met both through Murray Rothbard, who beginning more than 60 years ago attracted a unique group of libertarian thinkers who became the catalysts for the emergence of the modern libertarian movement. Sadowsky, a Jesuit priest and retired professor of logic at Fordham University, and Hamowy, a retired professor of intellectual history at the University Alberta, Canada, were not the highest profile libertarians intellectuals in the movement.

Killing one or many innocents, regardless of one's grievances, is monstrous. This elementary principle would seem to apply to George Bush, and now Barack Obama, as much as to Osama bin Laden. Can someone say why it doesn't?<br /> <br /> 2. Despite all its guarantees -- contrary to its ideological justification for existing -- the state can't protect us -- even from a ragtag group of hijackers. Trillions of dollars spent over many years built a "national security apparatus" that could not stop attacks on the two most prominent buildings in the most prominent city in the country -- or its own headquarters. That says a lot. No. That says it all. The state is a fraud. We have been duped.<br /> <br /> 3. The shameless state will stop at nothing to keep people's support by scaring the hell out of them. (<a href="http://www.independent.org/publications/article.asp?id=1510">Robert Higgs</a> writes about this.) That people have taken its claims about "why they hate us" seriously after 9/11 shows what the public schools and the mass media are capable of doing to people. But the people are not absolved of responsibility: They could think their way out of this if they cared to make the effort.<br /> <br /> 4. Blowback is real. Foreign-policy-makers never think how their decisions will harm Americans, much less others. They never wonder how their actions will look to their targets. That's because they are state employees.<br /> <br /> 5. As Randolph Bourne said, getting into a war is like riding a wild elephant. You may think you are in control -- you may believe your objectives and only your objectives are what count. If so, you are deluded. Consider the tens of thousands of dead and maimed Iraqi and Afghanis (and dead Pakistanis and Yemenis and Somalis and Libyans). What did they have to do with 9/11?<br /> <br /> 6. No one likes an occupying power.<br /> <br /> 7. Victims of foreign intervention don't forget, even if the perpetrators and their subjects do.<br /> <br /> 8. Terrorism is not an enemy. It's a tactic, one used by many different kinds of people in causes of varying moral hues, often against far stronger imperial powers. Declaring all those people one's enemy is criminally reckless. But it's a damn good way for a government to achieve potentially total power over its subjects.<br /> <br /> 9. They say the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Maybe, maybe not. But it seems abundantly clear that the enemy of my friend is also likely to be my enemy. See the U.S.-Israel relationship for details.<br /> <br /> 10. Assume "your" government is lying.<br /> <br /> 11. Politicians will stop at nothing to shamelessly exploit the memory of the American victims of blowback if it will aggrandize their power. No amount of national self-pity, self-congratulation, and vaunting is ever enough.<br /> <br /> (Adapted and re-posted from 2006.) <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'><span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Sheldon Richman</span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/ten-lessons-plus.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' title='2012-09-11T05:37:00-05:00'>5:37 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077444/8662838363331393984' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'>5 comments</a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-action'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/email-post/20077444/8662838363331393984' title='Email Post'> <img alt="" class="icon-action" height="13" src="//img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif" width="18"> </a> </span> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1929462245'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'><span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/9%2F11' rel='tag'>9/11</a>, <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/search/label/war%20on%20terror' rel='tag'>war on terror</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'></div> <div class='post-share-buttons'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=20077444&postID=8662838363331393984&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Monday, September 10, 2012</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry'> <a name='8356040677772145339'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title'> <a href='https://sheldonfreeassociation.blogspot.com/2012/09/incoherent-romney.html'>Incoherent Romney </a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content'> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-QYzaotF7kXQ/UE3LSIF6i2I/AAAAAAAAAss/wOGjlPpc3B4/s1600/romney.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="206" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-QYzaotF7kXQ/UE3LSIF6i2I/AAAAAAAAAss/wOGjlPpc3B4/s320/romney.jpg" width="320"></a></div> Mitt Romney says he wouldn't repeal all of Obamacare. He'll keep the rule forbidding exclusion for preexisting conditions, i.e., he'll maintain <i>guaranteed issue</i>. But he is going to find that he can't do just that. If all that's mandated is guaranteed issue, what's to stop insurers from charging premiums to already-sick clients that amount simply to prepayment for the medical expenses they are certain to incur (plus administrative overhead)? At that point the coverage is no longer insurance. Also, that won't fly politically, which is why guaranteed issue is always coupled with <i>community rating</i>--the requirement that insurers charge people in the same area the same premiums <i>regardless of their health</i>. That requirement raises premiums for younger healthy people so they will cross-subsidize older and sicker people.<br /> <br /> But that leads to a new problem. (See Mises's <i><a href="http://mises.org/etexts/mises/critique/contents.asp">Critique of Interventionism</a></i>.) Younger and healthier people will leave the insurance market: Why pay inflated premiums when you can put off buying coverage until you are sick? <br /> <br /> There's only one solution to this problem if the other interventions are to be maintained: an individual insurance mandate, the centerpiece of Obamacare, which Republicans and conservatives say they hate.

The party platform had been revised from previous years to remove an endorsement of an undivided Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. I haven't seen an explanation of how that could have happened. AIPAC (the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the leading organization of the pro-Israel Lobby) must have let down its guard, thinking all was safe and sound in the platform committee. Then it dawned on everyone that this bipartisan concession to Israel and the Lobby was nowhere to be seen in the party's official statement of principles. Oh horror! Something had to be done.<br /> <br /> And something was done--something not exactly kosher.<br /> <br /> An amendment to reinsert the Jerusalem language was proposed, requiring a two-thirds' vote of the delegates on the floor. It stated:<br /> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths.</blockquote> Convention chairman (and LA mayor) Antonio Villaraigosa called for a voice vote. It sounded even--there certainly were not two-thirds for the change. Villaraigosa said: "In the opinion of the--let me do that again." He clearly looked embarrassed.<br /> <br /> But the second voice vote had the same outcome! "I, um, I guess--" Villaraigosa stammered. At which point a woman official walked over to him and said, "You gotta let them do what they're gonna do."<br /> <br /> So Villaraigosa said, "I'll do that one more time." If anything, the no's outnumbered the yeas this time. Nevertheless, Villaraigosa declared, "In the opinion of the chair, two-thirds voted in the affirmative. The motion is adopted, and the platform has been amended...."<br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/09cEwnivdr0" width="560"></iframe><br /> <br /> The final image on this sorry episode was of two angry and disappointed Arab-American delegates.<br /> <br /> The mainstream media--MSNBC and Fox included--clearly did not want to talk about this. Whenever someone tried to discuss the trashing of the sacred democratic principle at the behest of the Lobby, someone else jumped in to change the subject.<br /> <br /> See a roundup of comment at <a href="http://mondoweiss.net/2012/09/in-caving-on-jerusalem-dems-pulled-back-the-curtain-on-the-lobby.html">Mondonweiss</a>.<br /> <br /> The 1947 UN partition of Palestine declared Jerusalem <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpus_separatum_(Jerusalem)">Corpus separatum</a></i>, that is, a separated body--a shared, international city because of its importance to Muslims and Jews. It was divided during the 1948 war, during which the new state of Israel <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Collusion-Across-Jordan-Partition-Palestine/dp/0231068387">colluded </a>with Transjordan (now Jordan) to deprive the Palestinians of their portion of partitioned Palestine. In the 1967 war Israel conquered east Jerusalem along with the West Bank and Gaza Strip (also the Sinai and the Golan Heights). Israel proceeded to annex east Jerusalem, expel Palestinians residents, and build Jewish-only settlements. Under international law the annexation of land obtained through conquest is illegal. Israel's annexation of east Jerusalem is regarded as outlawry by most of the world and has been condemned as such by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_478">United Nations</a>. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_478#Full_Text_of_Resolution_478">UN Security Council Resolution 478 </a>(Aug. 20, 1980) called on "Those States that have established diplomatic missions at Jerusalem to withdraw such missions from the Holy City."<br /> <br /> (I'm pleased to report that <i><a href="http://www.counterpunch.org/2012/09/07/aipac-and-the-undemocratic-convention/">Counterpunch</a></i> posted this article today.)<br /> <br /> UPDATE: Jon Stewart points out that Villaraigosa read his announcement that the amendment had passed <i>from the teleprompter</i>. It was all scripted, and the vote was a sham.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey told reporters in Britain Aug. 30 that an Israeli strike would be ineffective and then said, “I don’t want to be complicit if they [the Israelis] choose to do it.”</blockquote> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> It was the first time that a senior U.S. official had made such an explicit public statement indicating the administration’s unwillingness to be a party to a war provoked by a unilateral Israeli attack.</blockquote> <div> Read the rest at <a href="http://original.antiwar.com/porter-lobe/2012/09/05/after-dempsey-warning-israel-may-curb-war-threat/">Antiwar.com</a>.</div> <br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /> <div> As they note, it is significant that Jeffrey Goldberg, <i>The Atlantic</i>'s Israel apologist who often channels the thoughts of the Jewish State's leaders, has enumerated <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2012/08/7-reasons-why-israel-should-not-attack-irans-nuclear-facilities/261028/">"7 Reasons Why Israel Should Not Attack Iran's Nuclear Facilities."</a></div> <div> <br /></div> <div> Here's #6:</div> <blockquote class="tr_bq"> A strike could be a disaster for the U.S.-Israel relationship. It might not be -- there is no sympathy for the Iranian regime among Americans (except on the left-most, and right-most margins) and there is plenty of sympathy for Israel. But an attack could trigger an armed Iranian response against American targets. (Such a response would not be rational on the part of Iran, but I don't count on regime rationality.) <i>Americans are tired of the Middle East, and I'm not sure how they would feel if they believed that Israeli action brought harm to Americans.</i> Remember, American soldiers have died in the defense of Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, but they've never died defending Israel. I doubt Israel wants to put Americans in harm's way now. And it certainly isn't healthy for Israel to get on the wrong side of an American president.

In its own words:</p> <blockquote> <p>“Breaking the Silence” is an organization of Israeli veterans who served during the Second Intifada, beginning in 2000. The organization aims to make public the everyday life routine as it exists in the Occupied Territories, a reality that remains voiceless in the media, and to serve as an alternative information conduit for the public at large about the goings-on in the State of Israel’s ‘backyard’. The organization was founded in 2004, and since then has received unique public and media standing, bearing the voice of soldiers who have previously kept silent. Since its inception, over 800 male and female soldiers have given testimony about their experiences in the military. They described the reality of military rule in the Occupied Territories for the past twelve years, as reflected by the soldiers’ point of view. <br /></p> </blockquote> <blockquote> <p>The main purpose of “Breaking the Silence” is to arouse public discussion of the moral price that Israeli society pays for a reality in which young soldiers face a civilian population and dominate it on a daily basis. Every testimony published by the organization undergoes careful research. This includes verification of the facts and crossing-checking them with other testimonies and archive materials of human rights organizations active on the ground. Our journalistic mode of operation requires the <br />identity of testifiers to remain confidential.</p> </blockquote> <p>Weiss and Robbins note that this story is being reported in the UK, by the <em><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/aug/26/israeli-soldiers-mistreatment-palestinian-children">Guardian</a> </em>and the <em><a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/israel-breaks-silence-over-army-abuses-8081393.html">Independent</a></em>. Can we expect coverage from the mainstream US media?</p> <p>Weiss adds:</p> <blockquote> <p>The most grotesque incidents in the report involve the oppression of entire villages and cities. Soldiers are so bored in Hebron that they provoke riots. They stop people’s movements entirely for hours on end till someone at last lashes out and then the soldiers retaliate and soon there is a full-fledged riot. The soldiers and commanders seem to regard this as a form of entertainment.
