…with google,
what else? search for “keynes”, the worlds most famous economist and his principle of “carrying costs” that he used to describe the effort it needs to keep money liquid and moving. you’ll find in his main(?) work about economy that he acknowledged that the proposals of some money reformers like silvio gesell to put a tax on money liquidity instead of an interest rate where right and were feasible.

John Maynard Keynes
The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (Chapter 17):
“…those reformers, who look for a remedy by creating artificial carrying-costs for money through the device of requiring legal-tender currency to be periodically stamped at a prescribed cost in order to retain its quality as money, or in analogous ways, have been on the right track; and the practical value of their proposals deserves consideration.”

just do it!

mittwoch / miercuri / WED 13.08::
razboiul estival
de sfarsit de saptamana din gruzia este o sansa unica pentru omul civil si civic de a demistifica orice fel de lozinci ‘umanitare’ cu care marile puteri isi justifica in epoca moderna batalia pentru sursele si aductiunile de energie, pt. pietele unor bunuri materiale si pt. interese geo-economice si strategic-ideologice de orice culoare…
der wochenendkrieg in georgien ist ein lehrstueck typischer internationaler interessenpolitik und sollte deshalb eingehender behandelt werden – zum zwecke der entmythologisierung jeglicher ‘humanitaerer kriege’ und damit zum nutzen der zivilen bevoelkerung in anderen potentiellen krisenregionen.

 

die zutaten des konflikts sind ein sammelsurium von hollywoodreifen kriegsfilm-klischees, bestens geeignet zur entlarvung jedwelcher rechtfertigungsfloskeln und manipulationsbemuehungen von kriegstreibern jeglicher couleur:

01:: eine boese grossmacht (RUS),
die kleine freiheitsliebende laender in seiner nachbarschaft bedraengt (GE),
02:: ein kleines unabhaengiges land (GE) im schatten der boesen grossmacht (RUS),
03:: abtruennige, rebellen und guerrilleros in den unruheprovinzen (ABH, SOS) im kleinen unabhaengigen land (GE), gesponsort von der boesen grossmacht (RUS),
04:: minderheiten, mehrheiten,
abspaltungen, vertreibungen,
05:: voelkerrechtsbestimmungen, souveraenitaeten und selbstbestimmungsrechte der voelker,
06:: eine zweite, “gute” grossmacht (USA), die dem kleinen unabhaengigen land (GE) im schatten der boesen grossmacht (RUS) “uneigennuetzig” beisteht,
07:: diktatorische demokraten (SAK) und demokratische diktatoren (PUT) sowie verteidigende angreifer (RUS) und angreifende verteidiger (GE),
08:: zynisches gerede der boesen grossmacht (RUS) ueber den schutz de zivilbevoelkerung in der gesponsorten abtruennigen provinz (ABH, SOS),
09:: verfeindete volksgruppen (GE, ABH, SOS), deren feindschaft uneigennuetzig von diversen grossmaechten (RUS, USA) aufrechterhalten wird,
10:: lobbygruppen, minister, staatssekretaere, parlamentswahlen im grossen land (USA), das das kleine (GE) uneigennuetig unterstuetzt,
11:: manipulative berichterstattung (CNN & CO.), kampf um die mediale oberhoheit (WWW),
12:: laute aber leere proteste (weil nicht ernst gemeint) gegen die boese grossmacht (RUS) von seiten einer dritten, pseudoneutralen grossmacht (EU).
13:: der versuch, ein ziviles grossereignis (OLYM) zu missbrauchen, um die aufmerksamkeit vom konflikt (GE) und seinen ursachen (PETR) abzulenken,
14:: erdoelleitungen (GOR) und diverse hafenstaedte (POT) im kleinen freiheitsliebenden land (GE), auf die alle (RUS, USA) scharf sind,
15:: aehnliche kriege in anderen laendern (SER, KOS, AFG, IRN) mit erdoelleitungen, hafenstaedten, transitrouten und/oder geopolitischem sex-appeal, auf die alle (SER, KOS, RUS, USA, EU, CHN, ARB) scharf sind,
16:: volksgruppen, minderheiten, mehrheiten,voelkerrechte, vertreibungen, souveraenitaeten und abspaltungen, die in anderen laendern (SER, KOS), ganz anders gehandhabt wurden,
17:: eine agile blogosphaerische berichterstattung, die die worthuelsen von den ethnischen saeuberungen seitens des angegriffenen (SOS, RUS) und dem schutz der territorialen integritaet und menschenrechte seitens des angreifers (GE, USA) in kuerzester zeit auseinanderpfluecken,
17:: orangene revolutionen (GE, powered by USA) und rote gegenrevolutionen (GE, powered by RUS),
18:: sonstiges.

 

schlussfolgerung 1: die USA und russland spielten am wochenende eine partie schach mit den bauern, laeufern und lokalen koenigen in georgien und suedossetien/abchasien. wer gewinnt, darf einen kraeftigen schluck aus einer der transkaukasischen erdoelleitungen geniessen. wer verliert, schaut dem gewinner dabei zu.

schlussfolgerung 2:
internationale politik und krieg waren wohl nie und nimmer ein kampf zwischen gut und boese, zwischen cowboys mit weissen und mit schwarzen hueten, wie uns die kriegsherren und ihre meinungsverkaeufer auf dem papier oder den bildschirmen immer wieder einblaeuen – damit wir im zweifelsfalle und je nach bedarf mitmachen, zustimmen oder protestieren…

 

schlussfolgerung 3: entkleidet kriegstreiberei um des erdoels und sonstiger materieller interessen willen seiner pseudohumanitaeren rechtfertigungen! und wenn ihr demnaechst wieder welche hoert, die euch/uns auf der mattscheibe die heldensaga von gut versus boese erzaehlen, dreht ihnen lieber den ruecken zu und den fernseher ab. geniesst stattdessen ein kuehles bier – und fragt euch dabei, wo, womit und wie diese flasche bier in zukunft ohne krieg hergestellt, gelagert, in den supermarkt transportiert, erneut gelagert, nach hause transportiert, kuehl gelagert, entsorgt und/oder recycelt werden soll.
(eine antwort habe ich selbst noch nicht…)

full success in transilvania! our NGO candidate voted in CRESC!

Posted by euromania on 27/07/08

after an intense lobbying day on friday, I got 13 NGOs to vote for zoltan hajdu, my favorit candidate for CRESC ADR centru! ms. koreck, the county council’s president’s favorite could not mobilize more than 10 votes per total, so we won 18-10!

dupa ce vineri am “tras tare” 12 ore, pân? pe la 1.30 noaptea, pentru a-l face pe zoli hajdu reprezentant ONG in CRESC ADR centru, ne-a reu?it schema ?i am câ?tigat cu 18-10 voturi împotriva candidatului “client” al dnei. lokodi (CJ mures). rezultatul e oficial ?i definitiv!

weekly digest
july 14th-19th 2008

TUE / marti 15.07::
>> soseste raspunsul de la ADR privind numirea (abuziva) a unui membru ONG (GONGO) in CRESC.
ADR CENTRU, the regional development agency for transylvania/romania sends an irrelevant answer to my information request about the abuse committed by MURES county council president lokodi emoke, when naming herself the NGO representative in the CRESC evaluation committee.

……………………………………………

WED / miercuri 16.07.08::
o veste buna:
:

>> ieri mai scriam despre scandalul lokodi-briscaru-CRESC iar azi aflu prin email ca CJ mures a cerut sa se numeasca un nou reprezentant ONG in CRESC ADR CENTRU.
good news: Mures county council president asks NGOs to elect themselves a new representative for the CRESC evaluation committe. things seem to move in the right direction!

……………………………………………

THU / joi 17.07.08::
scrisoarea uitata:
:

>> scrisoarea uitata
was supposed to send a letter of support to the mures NGO mailing list, in favour of zoltan hajdu from Focus Eco Center, as an NGO representative in CRESC. have simply forgotten about it! will have to do it tmrw asap.

……………………………………………

FRI / vineri 18.07.08::
>> scrisoarea amintita
finally,
have managed to send the letter out to the list. am curious about its impact. have attacked CC presidetn lokodi as well as her client in CRESC, mr. briscaru, a local reporter in tg. mures, from TTM tv station.

……………………………………………

SAT/ sambata 19.07.08::
>> alegerea noului reprezentant ONG mures in CRESC starneste valuri si atacuri personale
made a posting on mures NGO list yesterday (the “letter”) with some critical comments about a potential candidate (mr. Tocaciu, from NGO Valea Soarelui) and his anti-NGO and anti-hungarian actions and attitudes 2 years ago on romania’s environmental list ( mediu at ngo.ro). as a reply this person posted a mail full of hatred and false accusations on behalf of me (although we do not know each other), without taking position about the content of my critics.
the elections will go OK, i think (at the end of july).

 

weekly digest 1-5th of july 2008

Posted by euromania on 16/07/08

marti 01.07::
>>information requests sent to county councils and to ADR. >>write project report to transparency international romania. >>greenpeace protests against european car producers
trimis
solicitari de informatii privind proiecte si programe judetene pe baza carora se vor face apoi proiecte concrete ce vor fi supuse aprobarii pt obtinerea de fonduri UE la ADR CENTRU. pe site-urile CJ mures gasesc ceva ceva, pe site-urile CJ harghita mai putin, pe site-ul CJ alba la fel, cam slabut, nimic concret.

joi 03.07::
protest greenpeace la bruxelles, la comisia europeana pentru interzicerea importului/comercializarii(?) de lemn taiat ilegal. aici se poate semna petitia catre presedintele comisiei europene, j. manuel borroso.

intr-o revista online germana citesc un articol despre motivele mai multor tari UE de a refuza constitutia europenaa propusa.

sambata 05.07::
scris raportul lunar
pentru proiectul de monitorizare derulat cu transparency international romania. site-urile consiliilor judetene, beneficiarii majori ai fondurilor structurale nu prea contin informatii despre fondurile pe care se pregatesc sa le obtina. in schimb, site-ul agentiei de dezvoltare regionale CENTRU e ok.

ma uit pe site-ul greenpeace international la niste filmulete cu actiuni de protest inedite la nivel UE privind producatori de automobile ‘grase’ cu consum mare de carburant (daimler-benz, BMW etc.) filmuletzul “080526 Driving Climate Change” e chiar haios!
