Communism: The Worst Good Idea Ever?

May 172010

During World War One, the Russian Revolution was brought about due to a major defeat by the Germans. Losing almost 2 million soldiers and civilians, they were forced to immobilize their troops and regroup within their country. A few years later, they were completely out of the war on the verge of revolution. Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky led a group known as the Bolsheviks that would later become politically victorious and establishing a government under a new policy; Communism.

Communism promised an overall equality over government, its citizens, the poor and wealthy. No one owns land except everyone is free to go where they please. Many people submit to this idea as it sounds amazing and promising. Then why is it illegal in the United States?

First, dictatorship is possible. Imagine losing the president to a powerful, wealthy, and popular man who seems to have good ideas. He gains complete control and abolishes the legislative and judicial branches. He makes laws that no one expected he would allow. Dictatorship is not always bad though, but it can become clouded in something potentially evil.

Next, the people do not have power. Sure, the middle and lower classes get what they want with being equal with everyone else. Is sacrificing many of your rights healthy for the population? Democracy sets up equality as well, but it also gives people power! A balance of powers is what communism promises to be, but it is not what it becomes.

Consecutively, the government would then be under almost complete control over all manufacturing, production, and distribution, including foreign ties. Would you want your government to assume control over your local Wal-Mart? Your goods would become pricier, depending on inflation, and you wouldn’t make the amount of profit from your sales you once did. Now, a large chunk of your sales would be directed toward government funds. That is definitely not what anyone wants from the leaders they are supposed to look up to.
Finally, communism brings the wealthy, moderate, and poor together. That is not as good as it sounds. To do this, they all must first share the same amount of pay. If the wealthy bring in $300,000 a year and the average middle class brings in $50,000, then their pays would be brought down to around $50-70,000 depending on the average pay of the poverty class. The wealthy lose a lot of money. Also, anyone that owns private land will be absolved of it. The government will then own ALL land. Private ownership of almost everything is completely obliterated.
To conclude, communism does seem like a good idea on the surface, but it can corrupt minds and form movements far from the advantageous promises it once made. Even though communism is viewed in the negative light, some forms of communism are beneficial to its host country. For instance, Cuba is communist, but it has the cheapest healthcare for its citizens, and almost every citizen is available to its healthcare! So, always employ skepticism when faced with the topic of communism.

communism is hopelessly naive…

the basic assumption is that people are basically good..

and WANT to share…

and WON’T want more than the next guy and are WILLING to work for it…

the first Benz you see…you start looking at that Lada in the garage differently…

how about this crazy story. what do you think? just came to me.??

April 222010

hows this theory?
the creation.
1.man
2.woman
3.no: woman, was first to create the man
4.no: man, created the woman to create the man, which was and had to be created by the creater, woman.
5. woman would not settle for just anybody. her most wonderful creation had to be perfect. the most perfect of all for hers. according to her hell of a life. a man that would put up with her. she had to be cocky and ckook. and he would have to be good at living in hell.
6 but man had allowed her to think she was the creature. he gave it all to her, she deserved it.
7 why did she diserve it. faith in jesus the spirit that would one day possess the man she created. jesus in the flesh because of his love and exceptance of all her sin. that of course was his dealings made of her hands. get her to the faith, make her sin. and shame would possess her. so to believe in a savior that could get her to heaven. regarless of how bad she was. her sin would never destroy her, because he made her more dark. yet this was not made aware. be more of the world. more able to know corruption, know sin and live by it. he on the other hand being the man of sin. he loved it. her trying to get better, in her guilty life of sin. but the man walked in to her life so to bestow these curses on her. makes her self aware and capable of living among the beasts of creation.a phasod of excellence in his eyes. in her all seeing eye of the new world suffering in their ignorance, she lived humility brought by the pride of her creation. never to see her beauty, the scars left as reminders of her evils hid her face. she, haunted by her lies became buddies with her lord. asking before the sin for forgiveness. so she brought him down out of heaven. and he possessed her man of sin. making jesus a sinful white gentile of all that dwell in the house of division and balance. evils thrived. they fell on an unseen by being submerge in the pit for the whole birth of this monster. one way we can live with all this sin is take it away and forgive like with children and create a king, god , man, father of all,, so to create the imaculate child the son. to save the father so to save his mommy. the last thing she needs is a way to clean away the sins. that would be responsiblity of kingship and power, and the wise of the fatherhood and most important to make him believe he is a god. "just cause she said so" now the conspiracy makes the woman feel like a godess. so to make her man, her slave. she made him, so, you know. woman can rule, made irrasistable. he becomes like putty for her hands and like a dog at her feet. or is god underfoot and solid became her foundation so to serender and submit to the first leader of the world. ready for his peeps greatness. this is his for yours. bring the nation to a cleaned earth with the miracles of life in which gives life everlasting.
8 she had seen the image of jesus in pictures and heard how great he was. interested and faithful in a new world that will reige a messager that will bring words spoken like a savior and observation of blessings. this son would bring truth from the old through the all knowing spirit of holy. yes re-incarnation. they told you that was evil so the father which at the time was just the man. started working the wonders and miracles. bringing her the word of god. so to study and find her life in the book. this was brought to her with the only key. the spirit of the alknowing holy truth. a comprised modern version of the story played out as she read. she found prophecy over and over dis regarding it could ever be her. a sinner , a low life. nobody. she stayed in her book of life untill today waiting to have the rest of the people that have the trinity of perfection created. the word of the lord came to them as a curse. fighting to find a believable way to share this unbelievable truth with the world. "i say, that sounds a little unseen. no time, not any faith, cant hear truth untold, unexceptable these loveless effortless, "I ya, ya , well i got to go. good luck with that, ya ok ,thats a great story. your crazy."
9 so to possess the woman who would, to be the mother that set the foundation (the earth) so to have her man become king by the words of old. the understanding brought miracles. the father would be trained by the the words of the great, a messiah.the flow of understanding proceded from her mouth as the torture continued. the growth inside her became so intune with his host. she lost and gained.she lived and found an incredible lie. this is dead. the realizeation set her on amission of truth. her desire and gods inspiration through praires for a perfect god. josiah drove her being into a state, unreal to all. sacrifice of everything from the life needed ,given to save inocience from its deciever. no proof just faith, hope of an easier explaination than that mind
&#%$ery of the wrong temple, and thier masters of satan creating a diversion we call religion. so this married woman gives birth to an untimelly miracle that would be the world secret. the woman would openly share wonders and unexplainable sites and sightings. only a one would believe and still never admit who she has become according to this info. her head spins and an overwelming urge to hit the road. while although freeked out.this would bring pease it is the miracle we have all been waiting for, right? no way? a nation of one from us for us because of the forbidden fruit,choise not us. for the worlds kingship rules over the heavenly empire. dan this is big??? he says its was us so for her. i deserve it. but im so unworthy of greatness. this is why my child will be given all the credit. talking baby rather than a big sinner, yes a perfect little baby.texbook. she being over welmed, finally stops crying, he could not bare her pain any longer. take back what is yours. fine ill give up the devil he was, since you figured me out.fine and it only took an infinitive. she would siah, its about f-en time."how could you" it was the only way he said. we can just be. love has prevailed. he would one day soon, become king, why because of his evil.so to pass it to the real kings. josiah and his brothers. to make kings and lords of all the sons of gods creation. the son of man will bring the isreal back to his son to create the heaven that was now from the begining. youngest king of the first father brought his queen to life by her death of her flesh. through the gift of knowledge we all live. god is all from body to spirit in the day of our struggle,evolution through the last moment we see what was hell about this world. now the fight is placed on all the creation to come together and be the family. not of christ but anti christ. its all backwards. so the people of the word through the beast we freeed our self from our dragons. we have all the help we need through the body of the world we call god. it was the dragon and his heads that saved the world.and his name was petey he was a red dragon not a surpent. (came from the snake family) puff the magic dragon flew threw the clouds and on his back was the most raidient woman created in eyes of god. to come down form the heavens in such a surge of absaloot puer love and forgiveness.hang on, faston your belts,keep arms in and bend-over and kiss your ass good bye,now its time to fly and die to the flesh, now go and sin no more, it will set you free. dont give this to no not one! give all of you. hold tight time will tell. you hold the key. it is your life we all talk about. listen to the spirit of the church of the chinese dragon. happy new year.

knowledge is the lord

The only reason I read that is because I have the screen reader JAWS to do it for me. sorry but one metaphor after another makes no sence and your English is horrible. if you can paraphrase that for me I’ll have a different answer for you. if you had this idea all at once and typed it out fast then that is OK and I understand because I’ve done it a few times.

OH AND SEEING AS I’m’ CHRISTAN AND LOVE DRAGONS MABY IT IS A GOOD THING i DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WANT.

Piano Man – MEP Parts [Open]

April 82010

So I’ve wanted to make one of these for a while now, because I thought that it would be fun. And I love this song, and there aren’t a million and ten videos for it already, so I thought that it would work well. n___n

Here be the rules:

1) You may use any three dimensionally rendered game footage that you like. In other words, no two dimensional or anime footage. Just for consistency.

2) Sony Vegas (or similar programs that function like Vegas and are compatable with it) only. You may use other programs like After Effects or Particle Illusion or whatever else you may use to do effects and things if you have them, but you must use Vegas (/Vegas like program) to edit it. So no WMM. Not that Movie Maker can’t be amazing when the right people use it, it’s just for consistency and ease of putting it all together at the end.

3) If possible, please render it with the dimensions set to 1280 x 720. If you can’t then I shall pan it for you when I get your part so that it fits those dimensions, although that may result in some of the clip getting cut off. However, I don’t think that this is going to be a giant problem since I think that I was like the only one having trouble with this until recently. For some reason rendering them as a wmv file seems to work well, and the quality comes out really nice, surprisingly enough.

4) Not to offend anyone, but I would prefer it if not EVERYONE put a clip of a Yuna singing in their part. It can be used well, but it can also get really old really quickly, and with the nature of the song I can see it popping up a lot. I’m not saying that you absolutely can’t use those clips, if you really really want to then you can, but just please use them sparingly. Meaning, don’t have them taking up your entire part.

5) Feel free to put your name on your part. I shall also be linking back to everyone’s page when this is posted though, so you don’t need to if you don’t want to. Everyone should also choose a character, for I shall make some sort of intro for this. Because they are fun. n__n Namine is taken, but anyone else is fair game.

6) Parts shall be due a month from when all of them are taken. I shall post an exact date when it becomes neccesary. When you are finished your parts you may upload them if you wish, although I would also require you to put them onto mediafire or some other sort of file hosting website from which I can download them.

7) If within two weeks of posting this the parts are not all taken then I shall begin asking people if they want another part, and if not, I guess that I’ll just make the rest. ^^;
That’s it! Have fun! n___n

Part 1 –
Part 2 – XxNoxettexX – Tifa
Part 3 – Kaea12345 – Namine
Part 4 – littlerinoayumei – Xion
Part 5 – Chibii18 – Aerith
Part 6 – ToSfan4eva – Sagi/Zelos(I need to find clips of one)

Aero Chicago Parkour 2009 Chicago Colossal Jam

March 302010

*Info taken from the LBP Youtube Channel, run by Emmanuel Manzanares, who created this video*

The Chicago Colossal Jam is an annual event held by Aero Chicago Parkour. Once a year, Aero invites all traceurs from around the nation; west, midwest, and east, to come out to the city for a weekend full of Parkour and Freerunning training. I was not able to attend last year’s, nor was a proper video made, so I decided to make sure I was free for this year’s jam, which was held from July 17th – 19th. This video documents Saturday’s session, on July 18th. The traceurs started off at the UIC campus, moved down to the Vietnam Memorial on State and Wacker, and finally ended up on Ohio Street Beach. All in all, approx 8+ hours of jamming on one day. I want to give a big thanks and shoutout to Ryan Cousins and Michael Zernow for hosting the event, and to every traceur coming out to Chicago to jam along with everyone. Thanks again everyone, and I hope the video does the jam justice! Enjoy!
