In an analysis (pdf) published Thursday that throws into stark relief the "unjust and unsustainable" nature of what economists have termed the New Gilded Age, the Swiss financial firm UBS found that the wealth of the world's billionaires grew by 17 percent in 2016, bringing their combined fortune to a record $6 trillion -- more than double the gross domestic product of the United Kingdom.

text Infantile Australia, the Disgrace of the South Pacific pat, Friday, Oct 27 2017, 10:12pm
If one considers the geo-strategic location of Australia in relation to other regional nations in the Pacific and South East Asia it becomes apparent that inept, spineless and political/visionary devoid Oz governments of past and present, exclusively formed from incompetent apron-string major parties, have COMPLETELY failed the nation.

text Madrid Risks Civil War Over Catalan Independence -- Germany Supports Madrid jason, Friday, Oct 27 2017, 8:36pm
To say that Madrid's decision to overrule the democratic vote of Catalonians for independence is provocative and extremely dangerous would be understatement. Modern Spanish history is peppered with wars of independence and revolution regardless of the strength of opposition. The romantic revolt is part of the cultural DNA of the Spanish people. However, Germany, which nation was instrumental in breaking up Yugoslavia and Kosovo independence has shown the world its flagrant double standards and hypocrisy by supporting the Spanish central government. The entire situation may erupt into open conflict sooner rather than later.

text Witness to a Colonized and Wounded Human Psyche Phil Rockstroh via jane, Thursday, Oct 26 2017, 12:30am
Human sexuality mirrors human culture. Mating dances of seduction and refusal, and acts of non-consensual aggression cannot be separated from traits witnessed, practiced and internalized by the people of a particular society. It is impossible to close the bedroom door to the culture at large. Eros not only inhabits the genitals and the heart but Anima mundi as well.

Now that President Xi Jinping has been duly elevated to the Chinese Communist Party pantheon in the rarified company of Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, the world will have plenty of time to digest the meaning of “Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era.” (story and 1 image)

Two very different faces of world leadership were on display this week. In Beijing, President Xi Jinping delivered a bold, outward-looking vision of Chinese global leadership. Meanwhile, in Washington President Donald Trump was embroiled in yet more egotistical infighting and tawdry claims of media lies. (story and 1 image)

text Trump’s ‘Beautiful’ Words and Unreality jess, Sunday, Oct 22 2017, 8:54pm
It’s not the fact that Trump has the vocabulary of a 10yo, dubya Bush had a similar ‘dexterity’ with words and grammar. So, was moron Bush a prelude to imbecile Trump, clearly yes. The dumbest of dumb world leaders now unquestionably emanate from the USA, the dumbest of the dumb. Though that is not my principal point, as the world is well aware of the fact.

As a youth it was easy to realise that the system we live in today is sick, more evident today than ever, as psychopaths and extremely psychologically sick individuals now lead nations -- Donald Trump, for instance.
