THE SIMPLE ECONOMY MANIFESTO



Most people are going to read this and discover that there is a simpler way to be. Deep down we all want the same things.

The Prohibition


How do mobsters get rich? If you said dealing, you are probably right. The prohibition of alcohol allowed for people to turn a profit for a product in demand. People just plain wanted it. A large number probably didn’t care. I wasn’t there to know.

The current dealing in “illicit drugs” in ALL communities seems to stand as a similar practice. There is an underground network setup and functioning rather efficiently making steady profit. Once alcohol was affordable and could be bought commercially, it became a background noise. You know it’s there, you don’t pay attention to it fully, and every so often it satisfies a craving so, you go and see what it is about.

Being that this is about what we refer to as “drugs”, I can only believe people will change their way of thinking by calling it something else. Spirit Lifters.

How did the crime problem go away with prohibition? Alcohol became regulated.

So, if you haven’t figured out where I am going with this, here is what I propose we do. It may seem outrageous at first, but it does require an open mind and the ability to forget all old thought patterns. The current system has not worked, has never worked and never will work. I don’t like to say never, but it only makes sense to try something else.

With all change there is a transition period. It will take time to round up and coordinate resources, but the simplicity of it is the reason for me writing.

Are you thinking “GET ON WITH IT!!!”?? Okay.

Regulate all drugs and let people do the drugs they want to.


There is so much money spent trying to prevent drugs from international travel. I won’t get into conspiracy theories about Government assistance in importing drugs. “Go and watch TV. Keep yourself occupied. Don’t mind me. I just have a war to fight over here in Vietnam. I might borrow your son or daughter for awhile. Yep, they’ll get home safe.” Daily propaganda.

The black market tax associated with illicit drugs is the whole root of the problem. If the drugs were in such large supply and pure, but still accessible, people could get their medicine and treatment without killing or stealing for it. No death. There just should be an outlet where you can pick it up. Hey, they have these places already. Pharmacies.

Pharmacists have some pretty potent drugs on their shelves. One could easily become addicted to any of them, but for the most part you are going to only get a small bottle at a time. I’m thinking regular folks here. Not the extreme cases of unfortunate people needing massive medication. That’s a whole other topic. Well, a spin off. Freeing up money and resources to direct attention to real issues like environment, health, smart economics, equality and research. People that are sick might get hope from money being put towards research for their new superbug that is immune to all of our bandaid fixes.

In these so called “Pharmacies” you can equip yourself with whatever a doctor considers you able to administer to yourself safely. See the relationship. Go and see a doctor and explain your needs. If you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg to pay for a dose of medication, then you can carry on with your day. You wouldn’t have to be trying to scrape together $20 for a flap of some concoction that has been cut and buffed up and inflated to look like more of the drug you are after.

What this society needs is for people to be responsible for their actions. If you kill somebody while intoxicated by anything is not right. The idiocy of one can compromise the privilege of many. Some whiskey drinkers beat their wives. Others call it “Scotch” or “Bourbon” and are sophisticated. Every man has his poison. For some, they need help. Their poison has taken them over. The balance has shifted and the reason and logic vanishes.
“Who could do such a thing?”

The NIMBY's will be up in arms I'm sure, but we would expect to be able to rationally dedicate an area in any town or city to be a safe district or implement the comfort of your home law. You would be entitled to fulfill your habit as long as certain criteria was adhered to and that while intoxicated you must remain in your yard, but preferably in your house under certain conditions.

Drunk in public is already a punishable offense with a ticket or a trip to the room for the night. No different. Out of line in public you will get reprimanded. Furthermore, you will be held accountable for all of your actions whether intoxicated, or not, in public.

Bow to your master,
Be down on to your knees.
Call to your captor,
For mercy you will bleed.
Drown out my laughter,
Scramble if you please.
You're not a factor
I fear only me.

Soon to be a reality........

Happy summer to anyone that reads this.

Every time I set myself up with a plan, life takes over and kicks me square in the balls and says "No way are you going to have time to do that!"

So, today is the exception to the sore nuts. I will make time. So, to make a long story longer....

Here is a thought...what is more offensive to you? If I politely asked you to stop your big flap jack boobs from smacking off your gut...or George W. Bush and his inbred cousins. If I hovered over your plate of food at the dinner table and farted on it, only to realize that a little turdlet shot out and landed on your steak...or the idea of the continued FAILING war on drugs. If a filthy crack whore popped a pustulous sore in front of you...or the idea that your freedom is being slowly pulled from beneath you by means of popular vote.

Let's think about every other point and specifically the very last point.

Every proposed idea has ramifications and the possibility of negative side effects. The idea of cameras everywhere doesn't frighten people when they are said to be used for safety of the public. All in favour say..... HOLD ON. I agree cameras in certain places are essential. BUT, who remembers photo radar. Bad use of a camera. Webcams of naked ugly people. Bad use of a camera. I could go on and on, but I am sure the filthy crack whore pus is enough to fill your head with a bad painting for a while now. More laws and more security is not the answer. Look up life in Germany pre-WWII and see what constitutes ideal living....hmmmm...is that where we are headed? There are very interesting similarities to the current state of affairs going on in the world and specifically the USA.

Here are some to ponder...just Google..hmmmm.....East Timor. Huh? Where the is that? Well, it was a modern day massacre of thousands of people. Allied forces at work. Every ounce of war has some background political agenda. What we are told is a whole other story.


What we need is less secret police, less "intelligence" groups lacking the fruit of their namesake and ultimately less law. Keep it simple. The more complicated it is, the more maintenance it requires and the more likely it is to fail. They have to keep making laws to curb the people that abuse the current laws. Soon there will be so many laws that people will be confused as to what they are allowed to do. Overwhelm the courts with petty crap, then all the unpaid fines for paternal law enforcement all because nobody had the balls to say "STOP! You stupid morons with your heads in the sand. Put your half-witted ego aside and any desire at bettering your political career aside for the benefit of the people that elected you.

Government of the people for the people by the people. Don't let them tell you otherwise.

The revolution has begun. The leader has yet to step forward. The face will be known the moment it is shown and the lynchings will begin.

Another rant at society to wake up. Turn off your bloody cell phones. Take your headphones off your head. Turn off your bloody TV first and foremost. That has got to stop. Nauseating as it is. Just wake up and think for yourself. Too much stupid going around and that is contagious. More than avian flu. More than SARS. More than every other catch phrase illness to sway you into more fear and consumption. Does anyone hear about SARS anymore? "Oh, they kicked the crap out of that at the source." Like hell. I would speculate that that whole SARS epidemic was just another mutated flu bug messing up the program. El nino, la nina, weapons of mass distruction, 9/11, PATRIOT ACT...

That's what you get for eating tortured food. Stressed out birds and skinny calves and fat pigs eating fat pigs and cows being fed mysterious farm scraps. What have we become?

All I can say is prepare for war. Resist immunizations. Eat smarter.

.....and join the revolution.

If I offended anybody with my comments, then please take them to heart because you are probably in need of listening and this just may hit home more than you think.

Where do we start?

Apathy seems to be a good place.

Do nothing, say nothing and be nothing. Walk the line and conform. Do as I say, not as I do. Do not try to set an example.

Anti-war does not mean pro-terrorist. Anti-church does not mean ... alot of things.

Why is it that as a society we can talk but, we are not allowed to speak our mind? We can voice our opinion in the quiet and the comfort of our home. We can voice our opinion to each other, as long as it does not conflict with political agenda.

Designated protest areas. Police presence to protect the public and the officials. So they say.

Laws are in place to protect people from themselves. There is no accountability for ones own actions. You can not take the law into your own hands. You don't have the mental capacity to do so. You are not intelligent enough to determine right and wrong. You need to be told. And yet the laws tend to outline the rights of the criminals and does nothing for the victim. As a victim, you are not guilty. You are insignificant. You are there to assist the prosecution for an action against another person or thing. Whether you were the victim or a witness. The consequences for being the victim or witness can be as detrimental as are for the criminal. Major difference being, after the system is done with the victim or witness, they are back to paying taxes and providing for themselves at their own expense. Essentially paying for their own protection and by keeping the criminal alive and well fed. Anyone who has had the misfortune of being involved in the criminal justice system can attest that the system is as problematic as the individuals that make up the reason for it.

Ultimately. People should be accountable for their actions. Whether they are intoxicated or otherwise. There is seemingly an ability to plea bargain by pleading guilty to a lesser charge for a shorter sentence. How does this benefit anybody except the criminal? The victim gets to see the offender again sooner than later. The bleeding hearts of society need to realize that their armchair activism and protection of human rights is far too general. Criminals should have some rights, but they should also have limited rights. It would appear that the guilty have more rights than their victims.

The time for change is long overdue. Sit back, relax and watch as your vote determines very little for democratic change. Be aware of what you hear and see.

Ask the questions. Question the answer.
