November 25, 2007 (LPAC)--There is nothing to fear but fear itself. A mortal once lived who famously said these words. He was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and though he has physically perished from the Earth, his immortality, his greatest humanity in fact, lives on in the guise of Lyndon LaRouche most notably, but also in the hearts and minds of others, whose years may not have overlapped with his. Were the cumulative events of these past two days to attest to anything, then a sensible economist, perhaps even you, might forecast a rapid increase in the number of living souls who have taken Roosevelt's life mission as their own; yes, this quantity might excel into the billions!
The legendary folly of our 110th Congress can be demonstrated again by their Nov. 21 “U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission” (1), which has been written in the tragic mode of Henry Paulson and the youth suicide-killers being fomented in the West (2). The commission report only instigates China to further crumple the value of our wheezing U.S. Dollar. Therefore, LaRouche, knowing a thing or two about history, again, intervened in history. He did so knowing that there are people in China today, “wise old men”--and surely many young ones, who are thinking two-hundred years into the future.
Consequently, what leaders of that country most require, is a grounding in the concepts of the Treaty of Westphalia; that sovereign nation states acting together, in concert, for the “good of the other” has been the foundation of all great developments among societies. From this vantage point, of the nation state vs. colonialism (ie. the British Empire), and with some of the practical solutions proposed by LaRouche at the conference, China can come to understand the potential “value” of the U.S. Dollar, by employing it to purchase, from the U.S., those high-technology capital intense goods required to build their nation's needed infrastructure. This idea of “value” as productive potential, differs diametrically from the monetarists' medieval offering, which at this point, is about as appealing as a plague corpse thrown by catapult.
LaRouche's message, both from the Press Conference (3) and his subsequent Keynote Address (4), stands on its own without need of further reiteration. What he has done however, is make it clear that nobody can run away from the death of the system; if they try they will find it rotting anywhere they go.
Members of Congress, who, months ago stubbornly refused to believe the gravity of what was happening, have been wrong where LaRouche has been right (5). And why were they so wrong? Is it because they didn't know any better? No. Mainly they have been wrong because they have allowed themselves to be contained by corrupt party leadership. For too long this Congress has tolerated Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, who is run by Fascist financier Felix Rohatyn (6). As such she is effectively an accomplice to Dick Cheney's war plot against Iran. Thus, having lacked competant or moral leadership, the Democratic party has lost almost all of it's credibility with the United States population, a fact which is shown by the Congress' ultra-low, almost single digit, approval ratings.
At this point, the only choice of action for those Members willing to regain sanity for their nation, is to draft a sweeping economic recovery greater than anyone has ever seen, based on the model enacted by FDR in his day, and now by LaRouche, who has boldly, perhaps dangerously, placed himself, once more, in the middle of the world's most pressing battle.
