12th Book on Ability to Reason, Right to Consent; Proposition, Problem & Poem No. 243

Most likely to be published later this summer of 2022, my 12th book entitled appropriately; Propositions, Problems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the 10th and 11th books...


PROPOSITION, PROBLEM & POEM No. 243

~ Preferring Unfairness Even Injustice / 3rd Reprise ~

            So not to have the focus excessively, exclusively tunneled upon one particular example, nor on any other example, the point was sufficiently argued (see Proposition, Problem & Poem Nos. 240, 242) regarding not taxation of course, rather to represent the human mind as susceptible to propaganda along with personal covetousness, presumption and arrogance.

Propaganda, the usual seed covertly or overtly planted and watered (if you will) by publicly funded schools then universities, political rhetoric, crony news agencies as well crony corporations thus government’s various industrial complexes; military, healthcare, transportation, arts and entertainment, etc. Personal covetousness, presumption and arrogance, the dark, rich soil in which propaganda’s seed germinates therefore imbibes, respires manifesting into manipulated thought, speech and action, the demonstration and confirmation of the aforesaid deception as truth the intended harvest, the schemed perpetuation. And so it goes.

It is critical to focus further beyond examples (i.e. taxation) and before influences (i.e. government, cronies, etc.), so to consider one’s own responsibility. At end of day, the individual’s preference for unfairness regularly prevails, that is, the covetous, presumptuous, arrogant choice for preferential treatment towards oneself whether politically, legally, socially, religiously, privately, and intimately. Consequently, it is quite correct to critique then condemn the examples longstanding per common pursuits for the following three minimally…

1.      Unequally greater portions of governmental subsidies ergo the capricious even desirous deprivation of others.

2.      Unequally lesser applications of governmental legalities ergo the capricious even desirous affliction of others.

3.      Unequally weightier provisions of governmental faculties ergo the capricious even desirous subjugation of others.

Oddly, the same three enumerated (and more) are popularly categorized as good, moral, just, fair while the claims covetously rooted, perversely founded, logically the very opposite hence evil, immoral, unjust, unfair. So much so, ardent critics as well mere doubters of the alleged goodness, morality, justice, fairness coldly, inhumanely deserve to be ridiculed, slandered, abused, punished, ruined, destroyed and/or terminated while their properties, purses, possessions confiscated even children apprehended. Unavoidably, inevitably so are these ends by such cruel means.

(Swilled to odd quell then unwanted thrill, odder still the pell-mell
Details as floods, rather, thistles bred amid delicate buds swelled
Lulled the blood in mud, ergo rutted the mind uninspired, tired
Unable to conspire, earlier speculations hung well on old wire)

And old attire, frayed collar, cuffs, tattered fedora, wilted flora
 Darkest auras, dreams of aurora borealis or australis, tho’ Gomorrah
Then some fake Torah, the Sodom in between, struggles midstream
Hoping long torched the menorahs along mind’s shores beseemed

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
