RE: THE GOLDEN LAW OF LIFE: 2012
Hello... well well... well you can't really pass a law that says human society and life must be fair, just and reasonable all of the time or you could but it would just tend to go against the real and basic nature of life, society and human nature except perhaps for those few things that humans can actually control, enforce and influence now and then and when you're talking about doing such for a planet of 7 billion people of many different ages and circumstances then it falls down and tends to get rather complex rather quickly.
So I suspect then, that the best that we can really do is to have some kind of overarching golden rule or principle that goes something like:
"Listen, if we're going to have at least some kind of half decent existence, quality of life and get along now and most of the time, then I'll try to be as fair, reasonable and just to you and your neighbor as long as you do the same to me and my neighbor okay?
So lets all try to tow that basic bottom line and big picture for the most part and time. Otherwise 1/5 of us will continue to have health and mental health issues and outcomes if we don't."
Amen

re: cause plant upgrade? 2012

well this seems to be one totally botched and expensive plant upgrade.... and one that should have had surgical precision.... seeing as how it effects human food consumption and health....

i figure they spent round $3.5 million ($1 mil for Alta gov ) to increase hamburger production and ..line speed from 4000 to 5000 cattle a day and at $1000 a head.over 18 day shut down period... that has now cost them about $40 million dollars in lost meat sales alone not including labor and overhead and profit.....as they probably make about $4 million a day there....

.so this has been taken up in nonproductive fat buildup in the cattle on the fields at double grain prices.... so they and their share holders are out about say $20 million or more .....for a botched upgrade and the price will probably just be passed down to the consumer ....who is now paying more for grains cause of the drought in the states that destroyed 18% of the global corn crop..... all tying back to the upgrade that hit at the same time when global warming effects are starting to kick in.......

compounded at the same time as a $60 million dollar cost savings cut (due to the global economic contractions) to the cfia inspect budget...

. wow can you imagine.... how complex thus and interconnected everything is and when you reduce food output systems for efficiencies sake.... to just a few main points how vulnerable the consumer and markets are and is to more similar situations...not upgrades necessarily but odd market and climate forces..

i would recommend an immediate hedge & diversification and adding of downsized food production house otherwise the global climate melt down is going to catch us with our pants and wallets down and hungry
maybe turn fat into some kind of fuel

re: systemic problems 2012

well heard a lady lawyer rattle of the cause of something as "systemic problems" which seems to have become a cliche for not doing something about something.... so why do i say that? well its kind of a non-answer cause it is so general as to be kind of useless.... what does it mean then....well im not a systems analysis but i would say a lot of system problems are the result of poor feed back mechanisms and points and the disconnect and lack of indiscipline between admin and front lines .... which gives a little more to work with as an answer.... of course they should point out that the solution thus if the problem is "systemic" is to do a thorough and competent systems analysis.... and diagnostic.

 Spirtuality and War 20120 comments

RE: SPIRITUAL DOCTRINE ON WAR, 2012
Well a spiritual doctrine that espouses, embraces and sanctions warfare, whether Christian, Muslim or other, would not seem to be much of a spiritual (just/loving/sound) doctrine or interpretation of such. Better the civil disobedience of Henry David Thoreau or Mahatma Gandhi than the crusade, jihad or manifest destiny of others.
Rather self defense could stand up as the better and just defense, just as the truth is the absolute defense. But neither such are warfare be it just warfare or otherwise. Such as the prior stand out to be and as something more akin to the true and mysterious nature that is Good/Holy Spirit and God/Allah of the truly faithful here on Earth.

re: life 2012
Life is and must be a good thing, because of the fact and sheer impossibility that it is, exists and continues at all and which thus automatically bestows upon it, its born and innate goodness and good! Life is good.... and thus Good is Life!

Whether we need a hamburger joint, liqueur store or cell ph towers on every corner is another question.
