The robbed person was investigated exclusively, rarely the robber.
The head of government who got into the most debt became a hero.
War rulers were deified and peacetime rulers forgotten no matter how
many wars
they prevented.
Thus went Ancient Greece, Rome, France, the British Empire and the US.
This
was the decline and fall of every great civilization on this planet: they
eventually
rewarded the down statistic and penalized the up statistic. That's all that
caused then-
decline. They came at last into the hands of Suppressives and had no
technology to
detect them or escape their inevitable disasters.
Thus, when you think of "processing Joe to make a good D of P out of him
and
get him over his mistakes" forget it. That rewards a down statistic.
Instead, find an
auditor with an up statistic, reward it with processing and make him the D
of P.
Never promote a down statistic or demote an up statistic.
Never even hold a hearing on someone with an up statistic. Never accept
an Ethics
chit on one-just stamp it "Sorry, Up Statistic" and send it back.
But someone with a steadily down statistic, investigate. Accept and
convert any
Ethics chit to a hearing. Look for an early replacement.
Gruesomely, in my experience I have only seldom raised a chronically
down
statistic with orders or persuasion or new plans. I have only raised them
with changes
of personnel.
So don't even consider someone with a steadily down statistic as part of
the team.
Investigate, yes. Try, yes. But if it stays down, don't fool about. The
person is drawing
pay and position and privilege for not doing his job and that's too much
reward even
there.
Don't get reasonable about down statistics. They are down because they
are
down. If someone was on the post they would be up. And act on that basis.
Any duress levelled by Ethics should be reserved for down statistics.
Even Section 5 investigates social areas of down statistic. Psychiatry's
cures are
zero. The negative statistic of more insane is all that is "up". So
investigate and hang.
If we reverse the conduct of declining governments and businesses we
will of
course grow. And that makes for coffee and cakes, promotion, higher pay,
better
working quarters and tools for all those who earned them. And who else
should have
them?
If you do it any other way, everyone starves. We are peculiar in
believing there is a
virtue in prosperity.
You cannot give more to the indigent than the society produces. When the
society, by penalizing production, at last produces very little and yet has
to feed very
many, revolutions, confusion, political unrest and Dark Ages ensue.
In a very prosperous society where production is amply rewarded, there
is always
more left over than is needed. I well recall in prosperous farm communities
that charity
was ample and people didn't die in the ditch. That only happens where
production is
already low and commodity or commerce already scarce (scarcity of
commercial means
of distribution is also a factor in depressions).
The cause of the great depression of the 1920s and 1930s in the US and
England
has never been pointed out by Welfare "statesmen". The cause was Income Tax
and
