A Tip taken from my experience toward living a long life

I have enrolled in DC's health aide program that enables me to have someone to help me do chores and get around town.

In just the two month's participation, I've come to realize the importance of that someone other, whose opinion and point of view gives me a novel opportunity to see myself more objectively.

That observing me and making suggestions to me, howbeit causally and off-the-cuff, has already proven invaluable.

Moral:  we need someone to see how well we are performing and make corrections as he or she is willing to do, so that we can better see ourself--the mental and bodily self floundering now and then, but with that other's input, doing a better job at staying alive.

 

  

What's Russia's helping with in the 2020 election: my take

 I was wondering how Russia might be helpful to Trump this time around--in 2020.

Watching his dramatics on TV for the past few days, I detect their-all intent:  Pres. Trump--the man of peace, the negotiator for the cause of justice and tranquility among all peoples; the ruler who is for law and order in the marketplace, but tolerates no outrage and violence among his subjects.

This description might even fit President Putin of Russia, himself, a strict disciplinarian in his land.

Returning to Trump, I discern his reluctance to boast of what skills he brings that make him saleable to the masses.  Only promises of their prosperity, and promises of his admiration among his coterie of fellow-travelers, whom  he protects from legal prosecution.

Why US Big-Business Needs China, Now!

 Well, this is just a WHACK-O THEORY; and nothing more--except the July 25th issue of the Economist lends credence to it.

It details how the big corporations and their industries are moving to evermore encompass features of a structured society dedicated to automation.  If the Eighteenth through the Twentieth Centuries were devoted to mechanization of mankind, the Twentieth through the ages to come are to become recognized as the Age of becoming a physical reality of the virtual mind.  In particular, the computer is taking over the world of production and manufacturing as well as the realm of bookkeeping.

How China fits into this grand scheme is not hard to tell.  In order for the Big companies of America to build the new empire of computer drones, they must get rid of the labor force of the past,with its old fashion ways of doing things and thinking about production.  By cutting back on home productivity, they prepare the country for its advent into the new ways of doing business a la AI oversight of entrepreneurial businesses.  Society is being prepared by business to accept its new look.

What will happen to the displaced workers on the assembly line, etc.  They could attempt to destroy what new enterprises are currently and methodically set to take over the realm of today's labor market.  God forbid!  Big Business is offering society options on how to handle workers displaced in the productivity line.  

Options for society to handle an overcrowded labor market

1.  Retrain.  2.  Pay all workers unable to find suitable work, a living stipend.  (Incidentally, that was Nixon's option.)  3. Have as many able-bodied laborers among them paid to work on infrastructure projects such as construct roads and bridges.  

Whatever option society chooses, China has a significant role to play, now.

In China, with Chinese labor, continue the modern methods of doing business that aren't as automated as soon Big Business will install in the States.  In short, let the Chinese industries be the less futuristic and AI futuristic than that currently being installed in the US by US leaders per field of industry!

I believe US Big Business is already accomplishing this revolutionary change.  Further, it is on a campaign worldwide to induce forward-looking corporations to re-locate to the United States, where labor costs are coming down due to the corporation giants who have been able to quell home dissent by creating a downturn in productivity on the home-front, while retooling on US shores for the future in the AI world of manufacture, maintenance and the manifold service areas.
