Free Air

I am avoiding the war---later. My hang up involves our reluctance to make technical advances that would solve much of the decention. I cannot believe the industry or government cannot stop spam, for instance, or move to a more hydrogen rich energy source. Technicaly hydrogen remains a stretch, but LNG, liquified natural gas, can do the job now producing a fraction of the CO2. Proposals persist for auctioning spectrum for wireless. I do not understand the analog mind set.

Agreeably, the cost of FCC miss direction has cost the customer a great deal. The auction of frequency amounts to a serfdom, and one wherein the cost, actually a hidden tax, far exceeds the ability to recoup with any egalitarian benefits. Why should the airways be owned by anyone? Use the spectrum so long as there is no interference. The technology is here to transmit transparently and not on fixed carrier waves that collide as in the past. Yes, there would have to be a period of adaptation. The cost should be less than the efficiencies gained thus recoverable.

Again, digital transmission in quantum bursts across very wide spectrum cannot be differentiated from thermal noise. The coding and decoding of the random packet frequencies eliminates noise encountered. Light is transparent. The worst conditions, white out or flat light is overcome with goggles or skiing near the trees. RF is no different.

Yes, get rid of FCC, but no, do not sell spectrum! Doing so perpetuates a useless tax on free information/speech that renders it unobtainable to lower income persons who arguably need it the most. Worse yet doing so stifles innovation and progress.

Incidentally, in an auction the monopoly will buy the spectrum just to keep the other guy from using it. This has been proven repeatedly, the nature of oligarchies.

Utopia

The Devil promises a utopia of worry-free egalitarianism beckoning you to an Orwellian hell of despondency. Its a matter of giving or taking. Work for your family and community supporting the common good, or take from the wealth of those who produce and promise benefits to those who do not and those destroyed by the theft of their own creation.

Election 2024

The November 2024 election presents a significant challenge, transcending the traditional Democrat versus Republican divide. This election will determine the future of the American Republic, Western civilization, and potentially the survival of the human species. Plato suggested that democracies tend to devolve into oligarchies, and we are witnessing that transformation before our eyes. Three major trends in the U.S. threaten to replace our Constitution and representative government with a totalitarian, internationalist, socialistic oligarchy. First, seventy years of Soviet subversion, the Vietnam War, and generations of youth who were taught to reject American institutions have undermined U.S. leadership. Now, Chinese espionage, bribery, and infiltration further contribute to the erosion of America’s traditions of citizenship, enterprise, and prosperity. Second, NGOs in Washington, an entrenched bureaucracy, and organizations like the Trilateral Commission prioritize internation...

Inflation

Many retail investors buy individual stocks with growing confidence in a narket that has a long run. Many fail to appreciate the way the market reflects inflation. Company revenue consists of inflated number,s as does cost and profit, thus the market reflects true inflation which must now be near 100%.
