To be treated decently by government first requires living a life deserving of a decent government.And note in that Declaration of Independence statement "...and among these rights". There are also other rights that the indecent will never know because they don't deserve them."Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.

While not true... you're free to blame (unjustly accuse) God for the consequences people get from their own evil actions. It's like the idiot who blames gravity because he stepped off a cliff. What happens only demonstrates how easily people can screw themselves over. It's completely self inflicted. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even have stocks and don't gamble on debts either. I only invest in my own Capitalist business ventures which create my own economic microclimate that doesn't conform to the cyclical collapses of the Creditist economy.

Jules Troy Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 60% equities, 40% bonds/REITs/preferred shares to weather any storms will average you 7% return including any "meltdowns"/corrections. People that "play" the market and gamble always lose. If you have a balanced diversified portfolio you can weather any storm. Any storm...any storm.

Including shermitas, sharmutas(if you don't marry one) solar eclipses, frogs from heaven or other silliness. That's a pretty good return for conventional government college educated employees... ...but the potential for personal financial rewards are far greater for any independent self motivated entrepreneur who can think and act creatively outside the box. I clear 40% profit on my business expenses and turn it over again on every job. We also yielded a 457% ROI by todays market value from building our own house, and the second one we built returns a tidy yearly ROI of 37%. We live in our home cheaper than any renter could ever dream of. Besides my regular business, I'm constantly creatively involved inventing new ventures all of which have paid for themselves and turned nice profits. We own all of our possessions outright, carry zero debt burden, and our net worth is a solid seven figures... ...and I'm just a dumb uneducated blue collar tradesman.

Peter Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 America rewards Capitalist producers?Rhetorical comment? The word Capitalist presumes capitalism and freedom. But an Objectivist might say, a free country doesn’t stand in the way of producers or buyers of those products, and you are allowed to keep your profits. The word reward implies government has something to do with production. Laissez Faire means let us be, let us alone, or guv’mint get out of the way in Dogpatchese.You would have a happier time of it Greg if you stop bad mouthing decent people who are secularists. When you do it you are name calling, and lumping rational thought in with evil thought. It really is an either or sort of thing. Mysticism or Rationality? You can have a belief in a deity but your belief should be compartmentalized so it does not influence your actions in an irrational fashion, which is what you are doing. You started this thread but it is beginning to sound like the zealot on the soap box in the park who is exhorting the crowds to REPENT! FOR THE END IS NEAR!

moralist Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Peter writes: America rewards Capitalist producers? Yes. But there is a moral component inherent to Capitalism to enjoying those rewards. Reject the Divine moral law of doing what's right, and you condemn yourself to be a dependent failure who will never taste those rewards. By observing moral law, your prosperity is protected from the corrupt debt based economy created by others. You live free of its consequences because you chose not to conform your behavior to its unethical demands. So the unethical Creditists get exactly what they deserve... ...just as the ethical Capitalists get what they deserve. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moralist Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 There's sort of a double whammy in that the end of the Shemitah year, begins the Jubilee year that comes once every 49 years.Just as for the Jews, the Shemitah was the time of cancelling all debt, the Jubilee is the time of restoration.Two Jubilees ago in WWI... the Jew's land was restored after 2,000 years.The last Jubilee in the 6 Day War... the Jews reclaimed Jerusalem after 2,000 years.Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
