Politicians Can t Seize The High Ground
Who would win a debate between Bill Maher and Rush Limbaugh? I ask this rhetorically, since I truly have zero preference; you may think of Maher and Limbaugh as polar opposites, I see them as one-in-the same, Maher the Democratic champion on HBO, Limbaugh the conservative radio icon. The strategy is similar for both these two: bash sleep issues, create a loyal audience, generate fans that accept you and reject your counter-part.
As originally envisioned, our political system was set up to provide checks and balances by continuing to keep the power divided, and by forcing the parties to succeed in solutions through compromise. The operative word being compromise which is mutual concession -- the cornerstone associated with a rational, fair and satisfactory negotiation.
Yes I know, it really is human instinct to require to bitch and moan, complain, and carry-on and commiserate with those you're feeling a bonding with, and to take this all nonsense and controversy and then use it to develop your team from the so-called enemy, which can be actually your neighbor across the street, across the street, or Politik Dalam Negeri of an different political party. Not long ago, there was clearly a combat veteran running for Mayor in San Diego, and he made an interesting statement he was quoted saying;
Commodities remain at or near all time highs. Gold is quite high because so few everyone is confident in the economy, or any currency, and lots of view gold as a hedge. Oil and gas cost is rapidly escalating, along with a gallon of gas is a a near record high. Yet, our politicians don't include gas prices within their indexes, and do not need to remember than many manufacturers have merely created smaller sizes, and say we've got very little inflation. I think we've reached the period of being dysfunctional!
Our natural power to love is our common human bond. Mencius, Confucius's disciple, declared every human heart is alike. When we realize this, this becomes our basis for living. Since we are all alike, we've got to live our lives in accordance with the golden rule, which was understood in every single culture and religion, like the philosophy of Confucius. The Chinese character with this reciprocity, which is, do unto others because you could have them do unto you, is shu, the industry mixture of the characters for "heart" and "alike." It's common meaning is forgiveness.
