Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
I know Mr. Putin you and your bed of slithering slimy snakes
know that there exist snapshots taken following 09/11 of Republicans winking at
US soldiers prodigally waterboarding captured war prisoners; and even earlier of
respectable pillars of society winking at Jim Crow obscenities during the Republican
Southern Strategy; and then there’s the total traitorous depravity of formal paradigms of rectitude winking at electoral dirty tricks during the run of several beloved Republican
presidents. But unfortunately for you
Mr. Putin, you don’t understand the force and power of equality as a baseline
belief working within and throughout broad and repetitive human experiential intimacy. My dear Mr. Putin, your cherished snapshots
are mere flecks of detritus upon the inexorable sweep of human freedom.
In
most U.S. states, high school athletic teams are divided into different
classes, usually based on the number of enrolled students, with separate state
championship tournaments held for each classification. At the time, Indiana
conducted a single state basketball championship for all of its high schools
and continued to do so until 1997.[4]
Some
elements of the film do match closely with those of Milan's real story. Like
the film's fictional "Hickory High School", Milan was a very small
high school in a rural, southern Indiana town. Both schools had undersized
teams. Both Hickory and Milan won the state finals by two points: Hickory won
42–40, and Milan won 32–30. The final seconds of the Hoosiers state
final hold fairly closely to the details of Milan's 1954 final; the final shot
in the film was taken from virtually the same spot on the floor as Bobby Plump's actual game-winner. The film's
final game was shot in the same building that hosted the 1954 Indiana
final, Butler University's Hinkle Fieldhouse (called Butler
Fieldhouse in 1954) in Indianapolis.[4]
However,
unlike the film's plot, the 1954 Milan High School basketball team came into
the season as heavy favorites and finished the '53-'54 regular season at 19–2.
In addition, the previous 1952–1953 team went to the state semi-finals, and
they were considered a powerhouse going into the championship season despite
the school's small enrollment.[4]
In Honor of the Republican Party and Its Prescient Embrace of the Southern Strategy (along with other stunning perceptual bubbles)
In American politics, the Southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans. (Wikipedia)
A word to the Elites who stole my Democratic Party that only yesterday excelled in economic and social justice but now recklessly and coquettishly proselytizes for the ancient menace of SODOMY and the SID-VICIOUS practice of yanking from nascent human life the inalienable rights bestowed and bestowable only by our Creator--these political bums seek to smear dissenters like me with highfaluting sold-out psychological phobic aspersions. Let me make very clear what I fear....I fear YOU and your ALLEY-CAT prostitution of LIBERTY. !!!! ***************************** Understandable Yet Inexcusable Apostasy
Today Connie and I saw again the movie TITANIC. The ship TITANIC had First Class passengers which were afforded every luxury and steeped in empty and conventional rituals resounding with the endless chatter of hackneyed ideas. Steerage was characterized by average folk filled with true joy and celebrating life with authenticity.
I would like to suggest something similar is a strong motif in American politics. In this context the privileged elite act and feel vastly superior to the average folk who hate like hell when the elite parade and promulgate values strongly at odds with “Steerage” traditions and values. Especially sticking in the craw of the low-life are the elite’s wide acceptance of absurdities--a human fetus is not human and its entire legitimacy as a developing human depends upon the whim of new-age doctrinaire feminists. They also refuse to understand that sodomy demands full and unquestioned acceptance. Also the low-life steerage have difficulty understanding how one’s basic purpose in life often seen as religious conviction must now in America be delimited within tiny private cubicles. The steerage low-life sees as its only hope sufficient appointments of Conservative judges to right the ship.
Please note in the movie true love has nothing in common with manipulative marriages executed for repressive hollow conformity. On viewing the movie, couples can cry when they see love committed even to the ready acceptance of death when necessary to affirm and protect loved ones with unlimited charity .
In the movie’s final scene one sees the entire cast standing in applause for humanity's stand-in couple. They appreciate the manifestation of that love most divine and essential for carrying forward the human enterprise within the glow of our prized ultimate enlightenment.
