The
New Public Management style of existence/”living” have to be definitely
terminated, because it is not a tool for The Survival of a society.
From
an economical point of view it starts with the war in Vietnam, the American
part of it that is. Everyone whom have seen the movie Fog of War knows that
Robert McNamara, one of the responsible for this failure, in the end of the
film says that that war was a mistake grounded on the idea that it was a part
of the cold war, which he admits it was not. It was a war that the Vietnamese
fought with the same intense and reasons as the Americans did. That is the
freedom of the nation.
This
politically and military failure did cost the American currency so much that
the second Nixon administration had to loose the dollar exchange binding
towards the gold, and move it into a so cold floating currency. That is a value
with no real value, but the one it gets by other values. (Which practically
means that when no one use gold as a backup for the coin value, then there is
no real value in that value.) (In brackets it is worth saying that this change
of the US dollar exchange rate was presented by a lie. Nixon himself said it
was made to protect the dollar against speculators. But after the dollar had
lost its actual value it was speculated against like a whore whom no one care
for, and just want to get as much out of as possible. My German sense makes it
necessary to make a bracket within the bracket, and say that there is no happy
whore.)
In
the 1980’s someone, or some (that one, or those are hereby wanted, dead or
alive, to answer in front of the International Court of Justice in Haag,
accused for war against humanity), gets a “tremendous” idea that a country, a
land, a nation, shall be ruled as a company. It is unnecessary for a smart, or
experienced person, to be told that this moves away a much too big part of the
people in a society, forming this society, being the society, to really make
the whole thing move on, if the financial system is built upon wishes or
guesses. (This might work though in a society consisting of only ethical
persons, because they do not wish and guess, they do know. And No! We are
definitely not there. We’re now writing 2013. Things are a bit worse than they were
in 1913.)
In
a company the survival is about getting a win. Then we’re not talking about
shareholder’s wishes or demands, because these persons are not a part of the
real production line. They do give money into the production capacity of the
company, but the main question in that case is if they are needed for the
ongoing production, or only needed for the start up of the company. In the name
of a new public management you are not to make money if you do not work for it.
Practically meaning that shareholder’s of a company shall only get a percentage
amount of win on invested money after the first balance Sheet of the company.
After that they have taken out their investment, and that’s it. Practically this
means that the idea of New Public Management do have a problem in its own
definition and construction. That’s why it’s not working more than as a theory.
There
is a marvelous example of bad manufacturing made by a company board, of the
Finnish company Enso, where they held the shareholders as the main part of the
company, creating bad problems for the economical department. The main part of
any company will always be the capacity of production and the selling of what
is produced. Everything else comes in as being second. The conclusion of all
this is that you cannot rule a country, a land, a nation as if it was a company
for the simple reason that it is not. A nation is a far more complex and
structured setting of being than any company is. Which practically means it has
to be governed by more practically principal rules. No society can live because
of shareholders. Any shareholder is living only because of a working company,
or the money that the shareholder takes out of the company (which the person do
not actually work for), instead of putting it back into production. A society
built on the idea that everything is going to be run like a company get into
the problem about shareholders whom wants, but don’t want to practically
participate in the work, and about the difference between money, value, and
currency. A situation creating cartels, lack of competition, a form of pyramid
gaming creating a big bunch of losers. It’s the very same form of ideological
system as the old Soviet one – Those whom do not have “the right thought” are
not allowed to participate, or shall be used for feeding Us.
The
first world war came to be because of the unwillingness of the government of
the United Kingdom to accept competition in the field of international trading.
The German government had to build war vessels to literally protect their trade
fleet, and that made it all. Then the extremely bad formulated peace
“agreement” (which was forced upon the Germans) made it easy for any war maker
to set up the conditions for the last world war. After that, in the 1950’s, we
get into the position where the boards of chemical and war industrial companies
(whom became the real winners of the war, and the ones to follow) takes over
the real ruling of the world. But behind the backdrops of politicians. These
boards are of the same nature as the government of the United Kingdom that did
not accept competition. Those boards wants more money in, and the whole market
– which they’ve actually created themselves - for themselves. This is also the main
reason why there is anything such as extremism or terror taking form as a form
of desperate protest. You only get the enemies you create for yourself. In a
natural state there are no enemies.
It
is not mainly the American politicians whom set up the rules for the American
foreign affairs. Possibly not even for the internal ones. It is the bad
resolves and following decisions of the boards of the war industrial (and
probably also the chemical, basically petrol) companies that set up the bad influence
structure for any American politician whom want to become president of that
country and all of its problems. To create real possibilities for the US nation
(which means also in the long run world wide) it is needed to set up the same
sort of commission as the one in South Africa, the Truth and Reconciliation
Commission. It is needed. A person whom is scared of being punished will surely
deny anything, but with the window open for reconciliation it will be far more
easy to sort things out, which actually was shown in South Africa. Many
individuals in several organizations, connected to governmental mandates as
well are to be heard.
These
boards are the real extremists. The real threat against humanity. Because they
create other extremists by the way they act. If they do so without being aware
of it, they are highly non educated. They might make it just because they know
it will mainly protect their own position, as an excuse for going on. A young
girl in Afghanistan, whom spoke for education of girls, being attacked by
extremists explained the thing by saying that those guys needed education. It
is the very same situation regarding those company boards. The cold war has
ended (mainly because of Mikhail Gorbachev). The energy feeding of vehicles and
society is moving away from fuels bound to specific geographical areas. (There
are actually inventions made by people, decades ago, that makes it possible to
drive a car without gasoline, or to use the energy in high-voltage lines far
more effective, but it was all stopped by the companies owning the market.) The
cold war management in need of intelligence service and military defence is out
of date since long ago, but those guys involved in these ideas needed a way of
going on living as they’ve always done. The experiment in that field have been
partly successful because of the New Public Management, and the social careless
financing system which it practically is. Anyone purely educated and with
practical life experience knows that no problem of the society will be solved
on the level of the individual. It has to be the other way around. But that practically,
in the long run, makes the war industrial complex unnecessary. It also means
that the New Public Management experiment have to be ended. In other words,
those whom really don’t want to work have to find a real job.
Take
the Enron company as a very bad, but not too rare example. The full folder of
the court act regarding this company, and anyone whom had had anything to do
with its affairs, disappeared in the 7th building of the World Trade
Center in September 11, 2001. Which is a date as bad as the one of 15th
of August 1971 (see above; Nixon and the US dollar). That very building was the
last one anyone (in public) had thought of would disappear. But no one have
this far given a full trustworthy explanation to it. Why do things get bad with
the country that had one of the best of dreams? Because of bad resolves and the
following decisions. Not everyone is a true dreamer.
Money
do not create life. Life create money as a tool for living more efficient and
easy. In that way being the creator and ruler of money and its effects. Turn it
all over, and you get the world of today. When you get ruled by, and your life
is created via money, then you do not truly live. That is why New Public
Management is a non-functional intellectual typography. People being floating
leaves in the wind of “economy”, with no own life. The Men with the Wind
Machine Rules you, buddy. Solve it, or become a dead soul. Floating exchangeable, with no real
value.
