Money Power Respect – Gold Oil Architecture
Blood diamond
Are your people rulers or slaves? There are two opportunities of wealth building and one inopportune option of meager existence:
1. Original asset discovery or creation.
2. Services to discovered/created original assets
3. A subset that does not create substantial wealth we will refer to as Non-Substantive Laggard deValued Employment (NSLVE), this term is to depict the opportunities of employment that feeds families and pays rents, yet rarely ensures wealth of future generations or purchases appreciating assets.
Once you discover the Original asset, you can then exploit it if you infuse intellectual capital, which is the intelligence to harness wealth from the asset. This is the Capitalistic race to the next best wave of wealth. The battle against this force of futuristic opportunity is the current wealth structure that tends to protect its market share by eliminating demand for alternative products and services. The best example of this is the oil industries resistance to alternative fuel sourcing.
William Randolph Hearst
Another example is George Hearst, a Mining engineer from Missouri who walked to California in 1850 as a part of the great gold rush to Northern California beginning in 1849. He eventually amassed wealth from mining gold. His son, William Randolph Hearst was born on April 29, 1863. The young William took control of the family newspaper business from his father in 1887, “The San Francisco Examiner”. Back then, as today, he who controls the minds of the masses, controls the world. The formula for ultimate wealth is to first control the assets (MONEY), then for defensive purposes of longevity, control the minds of the masses (POWER). The less a population is educated, and the more they are propagandized, the easier the control becomes (RESPECT).
It is speculated that William Hearst defended his empire from competition from the Hemp industry. William Hearst was one of the nation’s largest users of paper, and he owned thousands of acres of woodlands. He supported the movement to tax marijuana out of popular use in the 1930’s. Marijuana is derived from a hemp plant, so by limiting the profitable production of hemp, he speculatively helped his paper pulp business from strong environmentally practical competition. Even though the hemp plant that is used to make paper was a different grade of hemp that is used to intoxicate smokers, the distinction was not made by the lawmakers.
Another example:
Through the production of oil, which was discovered in 1958, the city of Abu Dhabi generates 56% of the GDP of the United Arab Emirates. The UAE was formed in 1971 and is a united group of Arab nations, including Dubai. These countries have amassed wealth and as of recent years have aspired to build tourist and international business havens to parallel New York, London and Singapore.
The oil reserves translated into wealth, which is now being focused on building infrastructures. These infrastructures represent opportunities for firms to provide services and spread the wealth according to existing firms technical know how and connections to tap such demand. With the mobility and skills to generate revenue, family’s futures are secured. Architects, Engineers and scientist all receive a large portion of the infrastructure funds through offering expert knowledge. A lesser amount of funds go to the laborers who put hammer to nail.
Those who may be outside of the scope of experts or professionals may have the secondary opportunities to carve benefit by availing themselves to the status of NSLVE. If they have the proper training and experience on the lower levels of industry, they may create a life 
of economic sustainability. Yet, to evaluate this system with the intent to work upwards, a group must understand the process and infiltrate politically and socially by way of education and inclusion. The travesty of the historical and continual rape of the African continent should be a lesson to all world citizens whose identifying namesake carries a prefix of “African”. If there is to be one unifying posture of the Africans of the world, it should be based on this knowledge of harnessing. If not, we have learned nothing, and are doomed to a second class for eternity as our children’s resources succumb to the ill effects of double unemployment rate relative to the national average.
Wow, extremely well written. The author of this article should send this to LA Times for the featured guest writer. Kudos!
Like most things in economics I find this depressing and that alone isn’t enough because it’s a depressing cycle. I my self have studied the loss of African American Culture but only from a cultural anthro perspective it’s interesting and not surprising there is a economic one as well.
Are we as black people rulers or modern slaves? Well,we have been a lot of productive than our ancestors was (no disrespect to them). I wouldn’t go that far and say we’re “rulers” because the majority of African Americans are content with poverty or slightly above it.I told my mother a few weeks back that I was trying to live comfortably in poverty,I didn’t mean that I was content but that I was just trying to maintain.
I was surprised this week by my history teacher words this week,he said SSI (social security insurance) wasn’t meant to be a retirement fund. It was made to be combined with other assets,well this is not what I was taught,or should I say “saw”. My grandma,lived off of SSI with no other income for about 30 some years,I just assumed this is a retirement plan for older black people. As ignorant as that sounds now,at the time it wasn’t.
I dont see black people improving drastically at all in the near future,we have a black president but what does that change? Change happened but only in the white house. Let Al sharpton finally win the election and I think the table will be turned but Obama seems like another puppet.I havent heard anything about his jobs plan since two weeks after he proposed it to congress. I may went off topic but this is my opinion on the topic and what I felt.
This is a great article that elaborates more on how the rich became richer on the backs of the working class man. I know this is how it worked but never seen it written down(makes things make more sense) or in action as by the Hearst family and the UAE. I also herd of another company that has a monopoly on their industry and so sets the prices, De Beers and diamonds. I have herd they are not as scarce as thought by the public but that the De Beers holds and only releases a small amount each year as to control the price and always keep it high. The people that they use to work in these huge mines barley live off what they are paid such as the NSLVE mentioned in the article just getting by with no chance to advance in society.
this is very well written. Its simple, to gain wealth you must poses money, power and respect !
The difference between enslaved people and NSLVE people is that the President determines enslaved people through policy. NSLVE’d people are mentally enslaved by their own doing. Even if a policy may have placed them on a particular course. The corrective course of action must come from every house, not the Whitehouse.
