Karma

KARMA

This is a follow on from my last post on Predestined Life and the Illusion of Time you can find in this link.

My own understanding of karma has evolved over the years, from some form of repercussion due to destructive behaviour, or a reward when it is constructive behaviour. The reason for a repercussion is not to punish, this is just a feedback mechanism. I no longer view karma as being as limited as this. I see it being tied into evolution in a great way. Thus the name of this site, my interest in evolution through many lifetimes really interests me. This is a long haul, amassing trauma through many births and deaths alone is heavy, but consider the unresolved natural disasters around us within these lives, the murders, crimes, despair and so on. The accumulative affect of these trying experiences can weigh heavy on us, when not resolved. So how I can try to curtail further trauma and suffering I often contemplate.

Part 2 – Do You Free Market Bro?

Part 2 – Do You Free Market Bro?

If you missed it, here is Part 1 of this post from last week.

To follow on from last weeks post on Free Markets this week I wish to cover two things briefly: The myths about a Free Market, and how economically less free countries fare compared to freer countries.

The most overused myth about the Free Market is that it caused the financial collapse, but as I covered last week the financial markets are the most heavily regulated in the world, thus they ain’t free. There was other reasons for the collapse, far from too much freedom, but networks of corruption and cronyism. A free market is when there is absolutely no regulation where two people, or companies can trade freely without government interference.

Why I Hate The Poor

Why I Hate The Poor – is it time I Took A look at myself?

A few times people have seen my views to empower people, as a hatred of people. So I am forced to take stock and have a look at myself and my perhaps flawed thinking. Here I try to understand: Why I hate the poor.

Because I think all citizens, especially the poorer members of society having near half of their income taken forcibly from them by the state via income tax and VAT, I am called ‘crazy’. I think people spend their own money best. Now how this equates to ‘Why do you hate the poor?’ I can’t quite grasp.

Regardless of what the law says, I trust individuals with their own money more than proven incompetents.

Do You Believe In Freedom?

So You’re Against The Nanny State – Do You Believe In Freedom?

This is a simple question, and there is no ‘wrong’ answer. The purpose is to help us find any inconsistency in our beliefs. The question is: Do you believe in freedom? Ultimately this question boils down to ‘do you want peaceful adults to be free to make their own choices?’

Now many will of course think ‘No, I don’t want people free to make their own choices.’  Well, although I disagree with you, I do respect you for having the awareness to make that statement.

You cannot create equality by treating people unequally.

The Revolution Happy Meal: Instant Dependency

The Revolution Happy Meal: Instant Dependency

I could start this post with ‘The people are taking back power in Greece!’, but that’s a bit presumptive, so how about:

Are people taking back power in Greece with the rise of Syriza? Is Spain next to address corruption and look out for ‘the poor’ with one year old political party Podemos? Why are the Irish marching against water charges, with Sinn Fein (political wing of terrorist organisation the IRA) just about the most popular party?

The common element in each of these cases is they all hold extreme socialist policies. So when the people get angry and feel dis-empowered, they veer Left. So is this the revolution that has been in the air? Will these politicians remove the stranglehold of power and massive wealth from the 1%, to use the language of the day?

Marching is not enough, protesting is not enough. Waving a flag and demanding someone else make the important decisions does not make you a revolutionary.

The Problem With State Provided Healthcare

The PRoblem with state Provided healthcare

Whether the public health system in your country is amazing or useless is irrelevant in this post. The point is the right to choose. Even if a public service is good enough why should people be forced to pay for it? Surely if the service is great value and highly efficient people will line up and gladly pay for it?

Regulated products kill millions of people every year, having a licence is no guarantee that a holder will act honourably or lawfully.

Free Speech And Charlie Hebdo

Free Speech and Charlie Hebdo- what’s popular today?

With the attack on the Paris cartoonists the masses have taken to the streets, airwaves and interwebs to wave some pencils and make their well meaning although somewhat lame and confused voices heard. What happened in Paris, if true, is obviously abhorrent. Right now I am more concerned with the reaction by the public and political world, what is unfolding and where this may all lead.

Free speech is a wonderful thing, where and when it occurs. There are many variants, in that not all of us feel empowered or free enough to state our views, fear of ridicule or social exclusion runs through the human make-up. So it’s much easier to express, freely, popular opinions, beliefs etc. than to go against the socially accepted views. There is a need for humans to feel part of the tribe, to feel accepted in our community. In the past exclusion could result in enforced isolation, starvation or even death. Life is hard enough without being excluded from ones social circle, community or family.

The demand for newspapers to be policed by government is laziness on behalf of the public.

Irish Water Cronyism

Irish Water Cronyism – What Is It?

The main news in Ireland for many months revolves around Irish Water Cronyism. It is a state company that uses tax payers money to establish itself, pay wages, possibly upgrade the water infrastructure etc. Regardless of making a profit or loss, this company can feed off the unlimited purse of the tax base. It might be a voluntary company as in consumers can opt out, but it is a monopoly so consumers will struggle to pick an alternative.

This is not privatization. This is not a private company.
