"...And
this is the way schools began as the royal tutorial schools. You
realize, I hope, that I am not being facetious. That is it. This
is the beginning of schools and colleges and the beginning of
intellectual specialization. Of course, it took great wealth to
start schools, to have great teachers, and to house, clothe, feed,
and cultivate both teachers and students. Only the Great-Pirate-protected
robber-barons and the Pirate-protected and secret intelligence-exploited
international religious organizations could afford such scholarship
investment. And the development of the bright ones into specialists
gave the king very great brain power, and made him and his kingdom
the most powerful in the land and thus, secretly and greatly,
advantaged his patron Pirate in the world competition with the
other Great Pirates..."

"...But
specialization is in fact only a fancy form of slavery wherein
the "expert" is fooled into accepting his slavery by
making him feel that in return he is in a socially and culturally
preferred, ergo, highly secure, lifelong position. But only the
king’s son received the Kingdom-wide scope of training."
"...However,
the big thinking in general of a spherical Earth and celestial
navigation was retained exclusively by the Great Pirates, in contradistinction
to a four-cornered, flat world concept, with empire and kingdom
circumscribed knowledge, constricted to only that which could
be learned through localized preoccupations. Knowledge of the
world and its resources was enjoyed exclusively by the Great Pirates,
as were also the arts of navigation, shipbuilding and handling,
and of grand logistical strategies and of nationally-undetectable,therefore
effectively deceptive, international exchange media and trade
balancing tricks by which the top pirate, as (in gambler’s
parlance) "the house," always won."

"...The
Great Pirates came out of that first world war unable to cope
knowledgeably with what was going on in the advanced scientific
frontiers of industry. The pirates delegated inspection to their
"troubleshooter" experts, but had to content themselves
with relayed second-hand information. This forced them to appraise
blindly-ergo, only opinionatedly whether this or that man really
knew what he was talking about, for the G. P.’s couldn’t
judge for themselves. Thus the Great Pirates were no longer the
masters. That was the end. The Great Pirates became extinct. But
because the G. P.’s had always operated secretly, and because
they hoped they were not through, they of course did not announce
or allow it to be announced that they were extinct. And because
the public had never known of them and had been fooled into thinking
of their kingly stooges and local politicians as being in reality
the head men, society was and is as yet unaware either that the
Great Pirates once ran the world or that they are now utterly
extinct."
"...Though
the pirates are extinct, all of our international trade balancing
and money ratings, as well as all economic accounting, in both
the capitalistic and communistic countries, hold strictly to the
rules, value systems, terminology, and concepts established by
those Great Pirates. Powerful though many successors to the Great
Pirates’ fragmented dominions may be, no one government,
religion, or enterprise now holds the world’s physical or
metaphysical initiatives."

"...The
Great Pirates did run the world. They were the first and last
to do so. They were world men, and they ran the world with ruthless
and brilliant pragmatism based on the mis-seemingly "fundamental"
information of their scientifically specialized servants. First
came their Royal Society scientific servants, with their "Great"
Second Law of thermodynamics, whose "entropy" showed
that every energy machine kept losing energy and eventually "ran
down." In their pre-speed-of-light-measurement misconceptioning
of an omnisimultaneous-instant universe"‹that universe,
as an energy machine was thought, also to be "running down."
And thus the energy wealth and life support were erroneously thought
to be in continuous depletion-orginating the misconception of
"spending."
Next
came Thomas Malthus, professor of political economics of the Great
Pirate’s East India Company, who said that man was multiplying
himself at a geometrical rate and that food was multiplying only
at an arithmetical rate. And lastly, thirty-five years later,
came the G. P.’s biological specialist servant, Charles
Darwin, who, explaining his theory of animate evolution, said
that survival was only for the fittest.
Quite
clearly to the Great Pirates it was a scientific fact that not
only was there not enough to go around but apparently not enough
to go around for even I per cent of humanity to live at a satisfactorily-sustaining
standard of living. And because of entropy the inadequacy would
always increase. Hence, said the G. P.’s, survival was obviously
a cruel and almost hopeless battle. They ran the world on the
basis that these Malthusian-Darwinian entropy concepts were absolute
scientific laws, for that was what their scientifically respected,
intellectual slave specialists had told them.
Then
we have the great pragmatic ideologist Marx running into that
entropic-Malthusian-Darwinian information and saying, "Well,
the workers who produce things are the fittest because they are
the only ones who know how to physically produce and therefore
they ought to be the ones to survive." That was the beginning
of the great "class warfare." All of the ideologies
range somewhere between the Great Pirates and the Marxists. But
all of them assume that there is not enough to go around. And
that’s been the rationalized working hypothesis of all the
great sovereign claims to great areas of the Earth. Because of
their respective exclusivities, all the class warfare ideologies
have become extinct. Capitalism and socialism are mutually extinct.
Why? Because science now finds there can be ample for all, but
only if the sovereign fences are completely removed. The basic
you-or-me-not-enough-for-both‹ergo, someone-must-die- tenets
of the class warfaring are extinct."
"...When,
as we have seen, the Great Pirates let their scientists have free
rein in World War I the Pirates themselves became so preoccupied
with enormous wealth harvesting that they not only lost track
of what the scientists were doing within the vast invisible world
but they inadvertently abandoned their own comprehensivity and
they, too, became severe specialists as industrial production
money makers, and thus they compounded their own acceleration
to extinction in the world-paralyzing economic crash of 1929.
But society, as we have seen, never knew that the Great Pirates
had been running the world. Nor did society realize in 1929 that
the Great Pirates had become extinct. However, world’ society
was fully and painfully aware of the economic paralysis. Society
consisted then, as now, almost entirely of specialized slaves
in education, management, science, office routines, craft, farming,
pick-and-shovel labour, and their families. Our world society
now has none of the comprehensive and realistic world knowledge
that the Great Pirates had."
The politicians, having an automatic bias, were committed to defend
and advantage only their own side. Each assumed the validity of
the Malthusian-Darwin-you-or-me-to-the-death struggle. Because
of the working concept that there was not enough to go around,
the most aggressive political leaders exercised their political
leadership by heading their countries into war to overcome the
rest of the world, thus to dispose of the unsupportable excess
population through decimation and starvation-the age-old, lethal
formula of ignorant men. Thus we had all our world society specializing,
whether under fascism, communism, or capitalism. All the great
ideological groups assumed Armageddon."

"...As
a consequence of the Great Pirates’ robbing Indo-China for
centuries and cashing in their booty in Europe, so abysmally impoverished,
underfed and physically afflicted have India’s and Ceylon’s
billions of humans been throughout so many centuries that it is
their religious belief that life on Earth is meant to be exclusively
a hellish trial and that the worse the conditions encountered
by the individual the quicker his entry into heaven. For this
reason attempts to help India in any realistic way are looked
upon by a vast number of India’s population as an attempt
to prevent their entry into heaven. All this because they have
had no other way to explain life’s hopelessness. On the
other hand, they are extremely capable thinkers, and free intercourse
with the world could change their views and fate. It is paradoxical
that India’s population should starve as one beef cattle
for every three people wander through India’s streets, blocking
traffic as sacred symbols of nonsense. Probably some earlier conquerors
intent to reserve the animals for their exclusive consumption
as did later the kings of European nations decreed that God had
informed the king that he alone was to eat animal meat and therefore
God forbade the common people under penalty of death from killing
a beef cattle for their own consumption."
"...One
of the myths of the moment suggest that wealth comes from individual
bankers and capitalists. This concept is manifest in the myriad
of charities that have to beg for alms for the poor, disabled,
and helpless young and old in general. These charities are a hold-over
from the old pirate days, when it was thought that there would
never be enough to go around. They also are necessitated by our
working assumption that we cannot afford to take care of all the
helpless ones. Counseled by our bankers, our politicians say we
can’t afford the warring and the great society, too. And
because of the mythical concept that the wealth which is disbursed
is coming from some magically-secret private source, no free and
healthy individual wants that "hand out" from the other
man, whoever he may be. Nor does the individual wish to be on
the publicly degrading "dole" line."

Through
all pre-twentieth century history wars were devastating to both
winners and losers. The pre-industrial wars took the men from
the fields, and the fields where the exclusively agricultural-wealth
germinated, were devastated. It came as a complete surprise, therefore,
that the first World War, which was the first full-fledged industrial-era
war, ended with the United States in particular but Germany, England,
France, Belgium, Italy, Japan, and Russia in lesser degree all
coming out of the war with much greater industrial production
capabilities than those with which they had entered. That wealth
was soon misguidedly invested in the second World War, from which
all the industrial countries emerged with even greater wealth
producing capabilities, despite the superficial knockdown of the
already obsolete buildings. It was irrefutably proven that the
destruction of the buildings by bombing, shell fire, and flames
left the machinery almost unharmed. The productive tooling capabilities
multiplied unchecked, as did their value.
"...The
craft tools are used initially by man to make the first industrial
tools. Man is using his hands today most informatively and expertly
only to press the buttons that set in action the further action
of the tools which reproduce other tools which may be used informatively
to make other tools. In the craft economies craftsman artists
make only end- or consumer-products. In the industrial economy
the craftsman artists make the tools and the tools make the end-
or consumer-products. In this industrial development the mechanical
advantages of men are pyramided rapidly and synergetically into
invisible magnitudes of ever more incisive and inclusive tooling
which produces ever more with ever less resource investment per
each unit of end-product, or service, performance.
"...Most
importantly we have learned that from here on it is success for
all or for none, for it is experimentally proven by physics that
"unity is plural and at minimum two"‹the complementary
but not mirror-imaged proton and neutron. You and I are inherently
different and complementary. Together we average as zero-that
is, as eternity.
