Confirming Command Economy

The price compression on a barrel of oil due to overproduction with the artificially high, non-fundamental, fraudulent price not only adds value to the substitute, alternative supplies of energy, but serves as a clearly confirmed demonstration of the command mode of the global economy.

OPECs decision to cut production to support the price per barrel above $100 is a confirmation of power. It is not to get rich. The supra-sovereigns are plenty rich. No. It is a demonstration of power over what is natural; the law of supply and demand and the natural justice, the righteousness, that comes with the confirmation of pluralistic processes like a free market economics.

However, freedom cannot be expropriated or disallowed. It can only be artificially accumulated with a natural, unavoidable, retribution. The more retributive value accumulated, the worse off the elite really are. This is what Obama, a highly intelligent man, means when he says the elite seem to take pride in their own stupidity. The first thing a political scientist learns is that people do not necessarily know what their self-interest is.

Ultimately, Nature, God, dictates a free market. The supra-sovereign, super-natural, status of the elite is but a foolish conceit. Nature commands the reconciliation of truth to power. The people are sovereign by Natural Right--it is not an abstraction of human imagination, it is an observation, a realization. The retributive value will be paid one way or another. God gives us the freedom to choose the form of payment. It is a soft determinism.

The retributive value is a variable unnecessarily suffered.

Let's choose freedom in priority.

Obama/Biden 2008!

Very best wishes.
