Libya Rebel’s chief commander was killed by his people

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011

Military commander of Libya rebel, Gen Abdel Fattah Younes was assassinated on 29, July 2011. Internal’s attention for this interesting news was insignificant. NATO made no comment when the world question about the honest of Libya rebels.

Rebels claimed that Younes was executed by agent of Gaddafi but made no opening accuse for that. They announce that the head of the group of men who killed Younes had been captured. However, they didn’t disclosed where the attack took place, where the bodies were found and not any detail as well.

In 2, August 2011, Younes’ son demanded an open investigation and speedy trials for the murders. They believe murders are the “individuals among us”.

Some reports said that Yones and two aides had been arrested earlier on Thursday near Libya’s eastern front. Yones’ body had been shot and burned. He was buried before the investigation was started. Yones was a former interior minister of Gaddafi’s regime since 1969. He joined the rebels’ uprising in February, 2011 and was point as the chief military commander in April. If he still had connection with Gaddafi and that was the reason he was killed why rebels were allowed to spent three days to mourn him.

If he was executed by agents of Gaddafi why didn’t we see rebel use that as an excuse to aggravate anger? Why don’t we see they accuse Gaddafi seriously in front of the whole world immediately? As a matter of a fact, according to the report from BBC, after hearing the death news, gunmen entered the grounds of the hotel in the eastern city of Benghazi where the new leader Jalil was speaking and fired into the air.

In a war the chief military commander usually is the most important person. Now such a person was killed by his people — rebels so easily and those rebels are firmly supported by NATO. Syrian troops kill much more people than Gaddafi and we don’t see NATO protect civilians there. We only see NATO drops bombs in Libya desperately. It makes us feel that NATO actually doesn’t know who they are supporting since rebels changed their leaders quickly without notifying third party. That is the funniest part of actions that NATO takes.

According to the report by BBC, South Africa’s ambassador to the UN on Thursday warned that supporters of the rebels were in danger of violating UN Sanctions and criticized calls by Western government for Col Gaddafi to stand down.

Can lower tax rate for the Rich people create Jobs?

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

In July 2011, the Republican refused to increase tax for the rich people when debated about increasing debt ceiling. Their reason was that keeping low tax rate for the rich can help creating jobs.

Tax rate they were talk about varied from 10% to 35% today. People who have annual income above $357,701 pay 35% tax. That means people who make one million dollar a year just pay tax rate 10% higher than people who have income for $32,550. From 1950 to 1960, the tax rate was varied from 26% to 91%. That means people who made $250,000 income a year have potion income pay tax up to 91%. The tax rates we set up today give government the lowest tax income since 1950.

Can low tax rate create jobs for the market? We can see that not all those high income people hire employees. Many of them are professional people or Wall Street people whose incomes are from high salary and high bonus. Reducing their tax rate has nothing to do with jobs creating at all.

Another situation is that big companies set up their factories in oversea to reduce producing cost and meanwhile make good money in the U.S market. On the way Apple’s profit increase 100% up. All of their products are installed in oversea and the materials are purchased in oversea as well. Their profit is 300% of their investment and they only share some profit to the local retail stores. Many big U.S companies get big advantage in the age of free trade. Their earning are better but jobs they create are lesser. Since they are not intent to create in U.S at all reducing their tax there for make no senses.

Oil companies in the United States have monopoly right to control the market and make the most money yet they got tax exempt for many years. This is the problem that most taxpayers do not want to see. It is obviously that the Republican represent the rich people who own less than 5% votes. Obama’s increasing tax for the rich people actually represent the majority. He just bring up the subject in the wrong time and he did not represent himself well.

In order to bit the Republicans he has to handle government’s funding in an efficiently way including cut all the unnecessary budgets, and make poorer work in the farms. On that way he can have a strong ground to increase tax. For doing that he should clarify his meaning such as telling us his definition about rich people. He also can publish earning that the big companies made and tax that they paid. On that way he can pass the decision right to the publics and take the votes back in 2012.

On the whole, Obama has good wish but poor ability. He can do something for us if he acts smartly. In the opposite, the Republican are smart business men but have dangers attempts. They only represent 5% people. Their opinion about decreasing tax for the rich people can create jobs is a big lie itself. We should never forget that the messes in our country today were first started from the two wars they created.

government’s spending and jobs creating

Saturday, July 30th, 2011

In July, 2011 Democrat and the Republicans have big argument about raising debt ceiling. The Republicans insisted to cut government’s budget meanwhile Democrat wanted to increase tax. It looks like the Republicans care about cutting budget but ignore role that government play in the job market. The Democrat simply spending and not worry about if the money is spent in a smart way.

A statistic report shown that in New York City, hospitals hire the most people and about 50% of those hospitals’ bills are paid by the government. The second field that the most New Yorkers work for is restaurant and the third one is home care. Home care provides service to low income people and have funding from the government. There are other fields such as school, post office, policemen, and city offices are governments’ direct departments. That means in New York City over 50% people’s income are directly from government’s funding. Those people’s spending majorly supported the restaurants and other stores in New York City.

It makes me think about the economic structures in the United States. How many Americans’ jobs are relied on government’s funding and how many people are not working but picking social security checks or wealth fare checks from the government when our government itself living on debt. If government cuts its budget what will be the economic situation in U.S?

In the last two years our government did play important role in the job market even though they were broken. We actually not only have the problem of if the government should spend money. We also face the problems of how to spend money in an efficiency way when creating jobs.

As what we see most of the medical expenses and home care services are unnecessary needs. It is very simply, if people have to pay fees by their own they will rather give up those medical tests, treatments and home care services. Nursing homes charge $15,000 a month for per person and make government pay for people who have low income. If without government’s backup those low income people will arrange their lives in another way. We there for have right to reevaluate Government’s spending even though it creating jobs. Taxpayers cannot support that in long term when those spending create no products with profit. This is why the Republicans insist to cut the budget. In some point they are right because if we don’t have money we not spend money.
As a metter of a fact Obama makes three mistakes in the last few years.

1) He believes that maintaining budgets for Medicare, Medicaid, SSI and unemployment payments means protecting publicans’ benefit. He doesn’t realize that people who using the above benefit are not the majority of the Americans. If they are that means American’s welfare system needs to be reformed. Beside that many above spending are unnecessary. He should not for earning votes to please those so call poor people.

2) Obama believes that spending can create jobs and save economic. He made spending but not made investment and his investment decisions such as building high speed rails is so stupid. He doesn’t realizing that if government’s spending can not create profit but rely on debts, he actually solves no problem but transfers troubles from left hand to right hand.

3) He can simply increase government’s tax income by stopping Little Bush’s tax cut decision. He gave up that best chance and put himself under the control of the Republican at the time he need to raise debt ceiling.

Obama obviously is not a smart person. He can win of not in 2012 depending on how he adjusts his mistakes. How he actually handle unemployment problem. I again list things he could do as below:

Government does need to play role in the job market directly. We can’t imagine the situation without government’s function in New York City. Government should not only care about how to cut the budget they should also find out how to spend money efficiently to solve people’s living problems.

I mentioned some related ideas in this blog before. In short term government should let people share government jobs. In long term government can build retirement homes to encourage retirement and leave jobs position for the youths. They can also use housing project to substitute social security payments and reduce cost for retired people. The process of building houses will create jobs immediately.

Eventually, we need to change goal we seek in our live. Mankind should not seeking for money and high GDP any more. We should learn how to live better and spend less. Living in low income will result in requesting fewer jobs. Job demands decreasing in the market will increase people’s chance to look for jobs. Another goal is make the spendings have mulitiple results.

One gun killed 68 people

Thursday, July 28th, 2011

In July 23, 2011, 68 Norway youths in a political youth camp were killed by the same gun. The killer, Anders B Breivik, received no training, killed 68 people with one gun and with deep hatred of multiculturalism, of the left and of Muslims. Norway policemen took no action before the fatally shot stared for two hours. The accident shown to us that how lax the security systems in Western countries are and how much a gun man with hatred can do.

It was luck that this killing was not created by Muslim territories or Gaddafi’s supporters. Otherwise the panic it created will be even bigger. However it doesn’t mean that those people will never do the similar attacks. I would like to say after being bombed for four months and after Bin Laden was excuted, those enemies of Western countries control themselves well. At least we didn’t see any revenge attack related to them. This killing remind us to calm any hatred down before tragedy happen. If our politicians continually ignore peace dialogue with their enemy but believe in the power of their bombs they will bring in good harms for their people.

Anders Breivik hated to see his government allows so many Muslims immigrated to his country. He pointed out the conflicts that we have to face to. In a small country roll in so many people who cover their faces. They obviously not going to accept your culture but simply make a living in your home. I can understand his angry. It doesn’t take too long the whole Europe will be occupied by people from outside of Europe. It is obviously that NATO’s bombs in Libya and Arab Spring will bring in more refugees from the Middle East and Africa. Those refugees have no food but have bombs in their homeland. Western countries that create the troubles have to pay for what they did.

In order to solve conflicts and problems created by immigrants, we should stop wars first. We should help Muslims and African countries to set up factories and develop agriculture in their area. We should conduct fare business trades with them but not discriminate them. Let them practice their religion which base on peoples’ free will. When people have peaceful and descent life they will not bother to run away from their homeland.

However, if Western powers continued to bomb the other country; if they force the others to perform Western’s democracy systems; if they continued ignore employment problems that due to the increasing population, if they continued seeking for high GDP and overlook the meaning of agriculture things happen in this world will be out of control soon.

A warehouse with grain in Libya was bomed by NATO

Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

On 26th of July, 2011, a warehouse stored grain in Libya was bombed by NATO. Grain that could feed all the Tripoli people for five days were totally destroyed in the fire. NATO always claims that when they set up and hit their military target they are carefully. It means that the warehouse being bombed was not a accident. A warehouse with grain was NATO’s target. It means that NATO determines to put people of Tripoli – women and children in hungry to help rebels to win. This is how NATO protects civilians in Libya. They maybe can say that they don’t want to see inocent civillians are killed in their bombs. They obviously can’t say that they don’t mean to make women and children hungry when they purpose to burn those grain. They burned over 100 tones grain when people in Africa suffer from hungry and need food desperatly. The supporter behind them is Obama, a Nobel Peace Prize winner. I am waiting to see how these criminals solve the problem they created. From the beginning they forget about election in Libya but simply demand Gadaffi to step down. This is how those democracy countries perform democracy today. If Gadaffi step down as what they demand, if they make things happen as what they want it means democracy is ended in the world. Let us remember that in 2011, democracy on the Earth was challenged seriously by NATO and USA.
