Collapsing Consumer Demand Amid Lockdowns Cripple Asia-Pacific Garment Industry: It Is Time the World Supports the Countries Where There Is No Social Security to Create and Extend Social Security to All Those Who Need It: This Is What Must the World’s New Progressive Political Forces Fight For Now: Humanity Can Not Be Left Out to Hunger Misery and Destitution

 

 

|| Thursday: October 22: 2020 || ά. The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered government lockdowns, collapsed consumer demand and disrupted imports of raw materials, battering the Asia Pacific garment industry especially hard, according to a new Report, released on Wednesday by the International Labour Organisation:ILO. ILO Report highlighted that in the first half of 2020, Asian imports had dropped by up to 70%. And how we would like the reader to contemplate what is happening to the workers, who have lost their jobs and livelihoods? How are they feeding themselves and their families? How are they paying for their necessities when they neither have any savings nor any income coming from anywhere? How long can they survive in this state? In hunger, malnutrition and perpetual misery and hardship? How long can they go on being destitute? Till they fall apart and end their life? This can not go on and it must not be accepted. It is time the world and the entire mechanism of the world must come up with real, measurable, credible, immediate and urgent means and mechanism to support the world’s countries, where there is no social security, to create and extend social security to those, who need it. This can not go on for the pandemic has brought untold and all-ignored destitution over hundreds of millions of humanity across the world. It is time new progressive political forces begin to work and demand that this becomes the absolute-must task before all humanity: to end hunger, malnutrition and destitution, that are now being enforeced on such a large number of humanity across the world! It can not keep on going: it must come to an end. NOW.

Moreover, as of September, almost, half of all garment supply chain jobs, were dependent on consumers, living in countries where lockdown conditions were being most tightly imposed, leading to plummeting retail sales. ILO Regional Director for Asia and the Pacific, Ms Chihoko Asada Miyakawa, pointed out that the research highlights the massive impact COVID-19 has had on the garment industry at every level. In 2019, the Asia-Pacific region had employed an estimated 65 million in the sector, accounting for 75% of all garment workers worldwide, the Report shows. Although, governments in the region have responded proactively to the crisis, thousands of factories have been shuttered, either temporarily or indefinitely, prompting a sharp increase in worker lay-offs and dismissals. And the factories, that have reopened, are, often, operating at reduced workforce capacity.

“The typical garment worker in the region lost out on, at least, two to four weeks of work and saw only three in five of her co-workers called back to the factory when it reopened.” said Mr Christian Viegelahn, Labour Economist at the ILO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific. “Declines in earnings and delays in wage payments were, also, common among garment workers still employed in the second quarter of 2020”.

As women comprise the vast majority of the region’s garment workers, they are being disproportionately affected by the crisis, the Report tracked. Additionally, their situation is exacerbated by existing inequalities, including, increased workloads and gender over-representation, as well as, a rise in unpaid care work and subsequent loss of earnings

To mitigate the situation, the brief calls for inclusive social dialogue at national and workplace levels, in countries across the region. The Report, also, recommends continued support for enterprises, along with extending social protection for workers, especially, for women.

The ILO’s recent global Call to Action to support manufacturers and help them survive the pandemic’s economic disruption and protect garment workers’ income, health and employment’ was cited as ‘a promising example of industry-wide solidarity in addressing the crisis’. “It is vital that governments, workers, employers and other industry stakeholders work together to navigate these unprecedented conditions and help forge a more human-centred future for the industry.” said Ms Miyakawa.

The Study assessed the pandemic’s impact on supply chains, factories and workers in Baangladesh, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Viet Nam. It is based on research and analysis of publicly available data together with interviews from across the sector in Asia.

Protecting Economic and Social Rights During and Post-Covid-19: These Are the Most Vital Issues World’s Working and Non-Working Humanity Are Faced With But the World’s So-Called Progressive Forces Are Not Raising Them

 

|| Tuesday: July 01: 2020 || ά. This has been presented by Human Rights Watch and we thank the Organisation for doing so because the so-called progressive forces of the world have taken leave of the political fields. They should be fighting to bring these issues out and raise them to highest on the political agenda. But they are not doing so. They are waiting for the next election to try their luck. No wonder they are falling away from the support of the people because they have become part of the complicity mechanism of capitalism. But people, the working and non-working humanity of this earth are suffering unprecedented hardships. The Covid-19 pandemic is likely to have long-lasting consequences on economic and social rights, stemming from the direct and indirect effects of the illness, people’s co-operation with prevention efforts and government transmission control policies.

Economic projections have already been revised downward for most regions and countries, driven by shocks to both demand and supply and sharp declines in the circulation of goods, services, people and capital. The economic fallout is estimated to increase the poverty headcount at $05.50 per day by as many as a half-billion people, eight percent of the world’s population. This would reverse a decade of global progress in reducing poverty and in some regions the adverse impacts could result in poverty levels, similar to those 30 years ago. The pandemic has starkly exposed economic inequalities, especially, in countries with fragile social protection systems, where vulnerable groups bear the brunt of the crisis. The pandemic has, also, highlighted stark inequalities in wealthier countries with previously better-funded social protection. People living in poverty are more likely to have health complications, live in crowded or poor-quality housing and lack the resources to stay at home for long periods or follow hygiene recommendations.

And low-paid jobs force them to choose between risking their health or losing their income. To remain afloat, people need large, timely and targeted fiscal support, that addresses the multiple axes of inequality and discrimination. Human Rights Watch is, particularly, concerned about the pandemic’s impact on the economic and social rights of those, already, in precarious economic situations, who are, often, more exposed to financial shocks because of socio-economic inequalities and discrimination.

This question-and-answer document examines how to ensure that the right to an adequate standard of living, among other human rights standards, is at the centre of the economic response to Covid-19. It summarises several types of government responses and provides recommendations for governments and financial institutions for immediate to short-term, medium-term and longer-term measures to help mitigate human rights risks, posed by the pandemic and containment measures.

::: Human Rights Standards: What Is the Human Right to an Adequate Standard of Living :::

::: Under international human rights law, governments have an obligation to ensure people’s right to an adequate standard of living, so that everyone enjoys the rights, necessary to live in dignity, including, the rights to adequate food and nutrition, health and well-being, water and sanitation and housing. Countries need to ensure equal access to these rights for all, without discrimination on grounds, such as , gender, race or ethnicity, age or disability.

The right is set out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: UDHR: Article 25:1: ‘’Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.’’

It is further developed in Article 11 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights:ICESCR. The United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights has issued several General Comments, explaining the components of this right, including, the right to adequate housing, General Comments Four and Seven, food, General Comment 12, water, General Comment 15, as well as, social security, General Comment 19. Through these General Comments, the Committee elaborates on criteria to fulfil these rights and provides the most comprehensive interpretation of these rights under international law. The right to health has been included in a number of human rights treaties; the main ones are Article 25 UDHR and Article 12 ICECSR.

::: Are Governments Obligated to Provide Social Protection or Social Security :::

::: Yes. Under human rights law, the government is legally obligated to establish social protection systems. The terms social security and social protection are used interchangeably to refer to in-cash or in-kind benefits to provide protection in case of social risks and needs. This duty to provide social protection flows directly from the right to social security, which is articulated in Article 25 of the UDHR and in Article Nine of the ICESCR. In General Comment No. 19 on the right to social security, the ICESCR spells out the key features of this right and the content of countries’ obligations. The committee says that the right to social security implies two predominant categories of measures: social insurance schemes, for which beneficiaries have contributed financially; and social assistance schemes, non-contributory and typically taxation-funded measures to transfer resources to groups deemed eligible due to vulnerability or deprivation.

Social protection measures secure protection against lack of work-related income or insufficient income, caused by sickness, disability, maternity, employment injury, unemployment, old age, death of a family member or general poverty and social exclusion, among other things. Social protection measures include cash transfer schemes, unemployment or disability benefits, social pensions, food assistance, or subsidized services.

Governments must ensure that social protection is equally available to everyone, and must direct their attention to ensuring universal coverage; reasonable, proportionate and transparent eligibility criteria; affordability and physical accessibility for beneficiaries; access to information about the provision of benefits; and participation by potential beneficiaries in the administration of these services. Governments need to ensure that there is no discriminatory exclusion from social security and other forms of social protection.

::: What Are Countries’ ‘Minimum Core Obligations :::

UN treaty bodies have set out minimum core obligations on countries, meaning the basic rights they should ensure at all times, for everyone. Within the right to an adequate standard of living, core obligations include ensuring access to the minimum essential nutritionally adequate and safe food and freedom from hunger; to basic shelter, housing and sanitation; an adequate supply of safe drinking water; and social protection, that provides a minimum essential level of benefits.

International law does not require any particular method to ensure everyone has a decent standard of living. Governments may directly provide essentials, such as, food and water; ensure that essentials are available and affordable; and ensure that everyone has sufficient income for adequate food, housing and other essentials. This can, also, be achieved through respecting the related rights of everyone to social security and to wages sufficient to provide a decent living for workers, a so-called living wage.

Countries with limited resources still have an obligation to ensure an adequate standard of living. Even, in times of crisis, governments are required to make every effort to meet these obligations with existing resources, including, international assistance and allocate them in the way, that maximises respect for human rights, including, taking into account the precarious situation of disadvantaged and marginalised individuals or groups.

::: What Does ‘Progressive Realisation’ Mean in This Context :::

In addition to the minimum core obligations on governments, Article 11:1 of the ICESCR says that they are obliged to ensure for everyone the ‘continuous improvement of living conditions’. Article Two of the ICESCR requires governments to use the maximum available resources to achieve progressively the “full realisation’ of all the rights in the covenant.

::: How Does Covid-19 Affect the Right to an Adequate Standard of Living :::

Covid-19 reinforced the relevance of the right to an adequate standard of living. The impact of the pandemic has been felt, particularly, hard in situations in which the right had not previously been guaranteed. People without adequate housing are at higher risk of contracting highly communicable diseases like Covid-19 due to their lack of capacity to follow hygiene recommendations or social distancing. People living on the streets, in shelters or overcrowded informal settlements are, particularly, vulnerable to an outbreak. Globally, before the pandemic, over a billion people lived in informal settlements and an estimated 150 million people or about 02% of the world’s population, were homeless.

Similarly, the lack of safe drinking water and sanitation at home, work or in healthcare settings make preventive measures difficult and could harm fulfilment of the right to an adequate living standard. In some cases, inadequate water and sanitation itself may be a locus for the spread of the disease. About 780 million people around the world lack access to an improved water source, which, by nature of its construction, adequately protects the water from outside contamination, and 02.5 billion lack access to proper sanitation. In metropolitan Harare, Zimbabwe’s capital, half the population has undependable access to safe drinking water in their homes. And in Venezuela, handwashing is difficult, even, for healthcare providers, who, often, lack soap and disinfectants.

::: Section 2: Government Relief in the Immediate Medium and Long Term :::

Human Rights Watch reviewed government responses in about a dozen countries, analysing aspects, such as, income support, paid sick leave, food assistance and other measures. In many cases, governments had taken some important steps but, they have not been sufficient or adequately targeted to support workers, who lost jobs or income, especially, in the informal economy. Despite massive liquidity injections from central banks and huge financial support packages, many low-income people remain unable to afford necessities, such as, rent, utilities and food.

::: What Are Some of the Concerns With Government Responses :::

In Lebanon, where the spread of Covid-19 compounded the economic crisis, that has been roiling the country since 2019, the government announced plans to provide food assistance, that did not materialise and financial aid, that was significantly delayed and insufficient to provide for families’ basic needs. The economic hardship has reignited widespread protests.

In Uganda, food assistance was planned for 01.5 million people, though more than ninr million Ugandans live in poverty. Assistance has been restricted to specific urban areas, leaving the rest of the country without support. Economic relief has been similarly inadequate in Nigeria, the biggest economy in Africa, where only a small share of those living in poverty have received assistance. An emergency stimulus bill, passed by Nigeria’s House of Representatives but not yet approved by the Senate, would provide support only to employers in the formal sector, though, more than 80 percent of the country’s workers are in the informal sector.

In Kenya, the government promised about $02.8 million in emergency funds for those in need. It is unclear, who has received this support and what criteria have been used to identify those in need.

In India, the government’s economic package did not sufficiently address the needs of migrant workers and workers in the informal economy, many of them women. In the US, relief packages, such as, the CARES Act and the Families First Coronavirus Response Act are largely temporary fixes and exclude informal and undocumented taxpaying workers, while billions of dollars were provided to large companies without sufficient public oversight or restrictions.

::: How Can Social and Economic Assistance in the Immediate to Short-term Protect Livelihoods :::

There are several policy responses governments could follow to, immediately, assist all those, who need support. Particularly, in countries with low and middle income, hard-hit sectors have a high share of workers in informal employment and with limited access to health services and social protection. Assistance can take the form of expanding coverage and benefits in existing social protection programs and or introducing new protection to those not sufficiently covered by existing programs, which should be developed in consultation with a wide range of civil society groups. This could include easing eligibility requirements and expanding unemployment insurance and other social protection programmes, employment subsidies, temporary tax breaks and deferrals for low-income households and credit guarantees.

Social and economic assistance should be directed toward those at greatest economic risk due to Covid-19. This support should include informal and undocumented workers, including, domestic workers, migrant farmworkers, street vendors and sex workers, a large proportion of whom are women, people of colour, LGBT people and immigrants. Informal and undocumented workers are most at risk of falling into poverty and it is important to protect their livelihoods. Their exclusion from social protections, often, violates their right to social security enshrined in international human rights law.

Plans to reach vulnerable groups should be developed in consultation with civil society groups, including, community-based organisations, with experience serving diverse groups of people living in poverty. Governments should, also, clearly communicate their economic relief plans to the public and clarify eligibility, timelines and procedures.

::: What Should Governments Do to Protect People From Losing Their Homes and Other Basic Services :::

::: Governments need to ensure that people do not lose access to adequate housing and implement measures, such as, legislative, administrative, policy or spending priorities, to prevent homelessness, especially, for those, who are economically and socially at-risk. These can include direct financial assistance for or deferral of rental and mortgage payments; moratoriums on evictions due to arrears; rental stabilisation or reduction measures; and suspending utility costs and cut-offs for inability to pay and debt collection. Suspension or grace periods should include reasonable measures to ensure that people can pay accumulated outstanding balances.

Governments could, also, delay or cancel for a given time period taxes or contributions, that negatively affect people’s rights and use tax cuts and subsidies for or direct provision of, basic commodities, such as, food, that are affected by price increases.

Countries should, also, consider supporting those, facing accumulated debt, who otherwise would have to give up essential services because they have lost their jobs, have to stop work because of illness or see their pay checks cut and are struggling to pay mortgages and other loans and utility and medical bills. Countries should, also, consider restricting negative credit reporting during the pandemic and for a period of time after. Negative credit reports can follow and affect an individual’s ability to get credit, jobs and housing for many years.

::: What About the Accessibility and Affordability of Care :::

Governments should ensure that testing and any treatment or vaccines developed for Covid-19 are affordable and accessible to everyone, while, also, ensuring that hospitals and healthcare providers have the resources needed to provide care. In many countries in sub-saharan Africa, the lack of investment in health makes it difficult to monitor new cases and to provide sufficient testing and treatment. But, even, in countries with sufficient resources, people may delay or not seek treatment, if, services are not affordable. In the United States, more than 137 million people faced financial hardship because of their medical bills, even, before the pandemic and medical issues contribute to two-thirds of bankruptcies. The right to the highest attainable standard of health includes affordable care and access to health facilities for all on an equal basis to prevent, treat and control epidemic diseases.

Other forms of essential health care, including, sexual and reproductive health care, also, need to continue and remain physically and financially accessible throughout the pandemic. In Uganda, the combined ban on public and private transport and a scarcity of public ambulances cost the lives of several women in labour. Many older people and people with disabilities rely on uninterrupted home and community services and support. Public agencies, community organisations, healthcare providers and other essential service providers need to be able to continue performing essential functions to meet their needs. Government strategies should minimise disruption in services and develop contingent sources for comparable services. Disruption of community-based services can result in the institutionalisation of persons with disabilities and older people, which can lead to negative health impacts.

::: How Should Governments Provide Assistance to Businesses :::

Providing businesses with financial support to weather the economic impacts of the crisis is important. And tying financial support to businesses with protection for workers can reduce unemployment and sudden losses of income, which can help sustain an adequate standard of living for workers. Assistance should go to both formal and informal businesses, especially, people, who work on their own, many of them women and people with disabilities and small and medium size enterprises.

Meaningful oversight is needed to ensure that funds are not misspent and are appropriately used to protect workers. Governments can require businesses, that receive financial support to maintain payroll and other commitments to workers, including, sub-contracted workers and where labour rights protections are lacking, ensure that every worker has paid sick and family leave, occupational health and safety and where applicable, childcare, health insurance, and other protection measures.

Bailouts could be conditional on firms paying their taxes, keeping workers on their payroll, paying them a living wage and continuing benefits like health insurance in countries where that is a key employment benefit, and providing safe workplaces and personal protective equipment as recommended.

::: What Steps Should Governments Take to Ensure Transparency Oversight and Accountability of Relief Funds :::

Emergency funding is, especially, vulnerable to corruption and misuse because of the urgency and scale of government spending and the underlying emergency situation can overwhelm or hinder oversight, allowing powerful actors to take advantage of the crisis for their own benefit. To prevent corruption or misuse, governments should restrict, who, may, benefit from funds to avoid conflicts of interest, ensure that all spending is transparent, appoint independent auditors to oversee spending decisions and hold people accountable where appropriate.

Conflict-of-interest restrictions should prevent senior government officials or their close relatives, from personally profiting from loans, grants or public contracts channelled through companies in which they have significant stakes. Governments should make public the amount they spend on various programmes and major beneficiaries of funds. They should, also, publish procurement processes, including, the names of companies awarded public contracts and their beneficial owners. With rare exceptions, all procurement processes should be competitive and final delivery of goods should be verified.

Governments should appoint independent auditors or inspectors general to oversee emergency funding and their reports should be made public. All credible evidence of corruption or misuse should be promptly investigated and those found responsible should be held accountable.

::: What Should Governments Do in the Medium and Long-term :::

The pandemic has exposed structural social and economic inequalities and vast holes in social protection. While immediate support is important, medium and long-term targeted support will be needed. As countries are starting to ease lockdown restrictions and let moratoriums protecting low-income tenants and homeowners lapse, economic recovery, that benefits everyone will depend on improved social protection and broad-based fiscal support. This includes public investment in health care, social protection and infrastructure. Recovery plans should take into account ways in which some groups have suffered more than others during the pandemic and work to ensure that economic recovery seeks to correct the inequities, that led to disparities in the first place. The following aspects are, particularly, important:

::: Set up more expansive and inclusive social protection measures, ensuring everyone’s right to social security. Entitlement to social protection is, often, conditional on participation in the formal labour market, putting it beyond some people’s reach. Countries have temporarily extended social protection to varying degrees and have taken first steps toward universal coverage.

In the United States, for example, unemployment benefits were extended to many workers previously ineligible for such protections, including, those working in the ‘gig’ economy or people, who provide home care or domestic work. For the first four months of the pandemic, benefits were made more generous, so that those, who lost work received $600 per week in addition to any amount to which they are eligible under state law.

In the Philippines, conditions for access to cash transfers have been waived and new programmes have been introduced, which quadrupled social protection coverage from pre-Covid-19 levels. Making some of these temporary life-lines permanent can provide better financial security for people during future economic uncertainty.

Social and economic support, including, childcare and paid sick and family leave, should reach all essential workers as part of medium to long-term measures and recovery. Such support is, especially, necessary to ensure the health and well-being of essential workers.

Spend on protecting economic rights instead of abusive austerity. Supporting the recovery with fiscal tools while managing higher government debt levels is a delicate balancing act. The pandemic and its economic fallout, along with policy responses, have contributed to a major increase in fiscal deficits and government debt ratios. As countries ease restrictions and enter the recovery phase, they should consider progressive taxation and strengthen public institutions rather than pursuing austerity measures. 

The experiences of various countries following the 2008 financial crisis have shown that many austerity policies entrenched inequalities and harmed fulfilment of an adequate standard of living. The economically vulnerable were hit the hardest as social protection systems were weakened, jeopardising a country’s ability to adequately respond to human rights obligations. In the UK, researchers have related austerity to an increase in homelessness, the number of people in poverty and food insecurity. Countries should learn from these results, with progressive public spending on health and social protection replacing austerity policies.

Some countries have introduced temporary measures to find housing for those, who are homeless or lack adequate housing. These have been very successful but risk being reversed. As governments end emergency measures and let moratoriums on evictions and foreclosures lapse, they should create programmes to guarantee everyone’s right to adequate housing, address and prevent homelessness and protect people from unfair evictions.

Improve tax collection and consider progressive taxes. To ensure adequate funding for progressive spending, governments should improve tax enforcement and collection practices. Countries should review whether rates are equitable and appropriate to generate necessary resources to assess whether they should reinstate or impose new progressive taxes. Property owners or landlords, who have waived rent or entered rent agreements in which the landlord bears the economic brunt could be considered tax exempt for the time of the waiver or special rental agreement.

Ensure equitable access to re-entry to employment. After the 2008 financial crisis, most of the jobs, that were lost permanently were low-income jobs. Older workers, especially, older women and minorities, were least likely to be rehired. Governments should develop strategies to ensure full employment and wage growth so that low-income workers are not disproportionally harmed in the long run. This could be done via public employment programmes, specifically, for sectors with unemployment rates, that are substantially higher than the average and with large concentrations of low-income workers.

Enshrine the right to an adequate standard of living in law. Countries need to give an effective remedy to those denied an adequate standard of living. A key element of the right is ensuring that everyone has sufficient income to be able to afford an adequate standard of living. This can be done through various routes, including: i: social security, ii: living wage or iii: guaranteed minimum income.

::: Section Three: International Assistance :::

::: How Are International Financial Institutions Supporting Countries to Meet their Human Rights Obligations :::

::: International assistance is crucial for protecting livelihoods and economies, especially, in countries with fewer resources. The World Bank Group has provided a S$14 billion package of fast-track financing to assist companies and countries to respond quickly to Covid-19. The package includes support for public health preparedness, as well as, support to private companies struggling with disruptions in supply chains. The World Bank Group noted that it ‘is prepared to deploy up to $160 billion over the next 15 months to support Covid-19 measures, that will help countries respond to immediate health consequences of the pandemic and bolster economic recovery’.

Other financial institutions, providing development assistance, both multi-lateral and bilateral, have committed over $90 billion in response to the pandemic. In addition to providing policy advice and technical assistance, the International Monetary Fund:IMF has doubled its emergency fund to meet expected demand of about $100 billion. Over 100 countries have already requested emergency assistance from the IMF, the highest number in its 75-year history. Unlike the Fund’s standard programmes, emergency funds are generally disbursed in lump sums, with limited, if any, transparency, conditions or reviews. The IMF is, also, providing a six-month debt service relief to 25 of the ‘poorest and most vulnerable countries ’to help them utilise their resources for medical and other relief efforts.

While the rapid response by international financial institutions is important, the human rights implications of the financial assistance are not clear. There are gaps in transparency and accountability requirements. In many cases financial support is going to countries with poor human rights records. This raises concern that the financial assistance provided will not reach those most in need.

::: What Should international Financial Institutions Do to Ensure That Assistance Reaches Those in Need :::

Funding and support from international financial institutions for the Covid-19 response and during the economic recovery period should respect human rights and should lead to opportunities for all, especially, for those, who are most in need and at-risk. Their funds should support socio-economic programmes like social protection floors, minimum basic incomes, adequate housing protections and fiscal policies, that address rising poverty and inequality and should be targeted to previously marginalised groups, including, women. They should ensure that Covid-19 related responses do not redirect resources from financial commitments and support, that had been earmarked for ‘vulnerable’ populations prior to the pandemic.

As countries enter the recovery phase, international financial institutions should depart from the dogmas of austerity and instead encourage public spending in health and social protection to safeguard the rights of those most at risk, thus, ensuring greater societal resilience in the event of a second wave of Covid-19 or a future public health crisis. They should prioritise strengthening public institutions to support services, that promote health and universal access to essential services.

::: What Should International Financial Institutions Do to Increase Oversight and Uphold Safeguards Transparency and Accountability :::

To reach those most in need and keep the country’s elite from taking the money, international financial institutions should publish all information, related to support programmes as soon as possible. They should, also, make clear both in private meetings with governments and through high-level public statements, that they will only support governments that demonstrate continued commitment to good governance.

Governments should make all information about how emergency relief funds are spent available to internal auditors and to independent auditors. Priority should be given to critical areas such as health, public procurement, infrastructure and social security expenditures.

Human Rights Watch is a member of the Coalition for Human Rights in Development, a global coalition of 98 social movements, grassroots groups and civil society organisations, advocating nationally and internationally for development, that respects human rights and is community-led. Together with our coalition partners, we have urged international financial institutions to:

 

::: uphold human rights standards, including, through enforcement of social and environmental safeguards;

::: adopt heightened transparency and accountability standards, with concerted effort to provide updates to fill existing gaps in information on an ongoing basis and timely translations of project documents into national and local languages of affected communities;

::: assess anticipated human rights risks and document heightened environmental, social, inequality, and violence risks in countries’ management plans during the Covid-19 pandemic;

::: indicate clearly and systematically, which new projects are Covid-19 crisis related and, also, when existing projects are being repurposed to respond to the pandemic and its impacts; and

::: monitor for corrupt practices at a level commensurate with the heightened risk of misuse and misappropriation of funds in crises.

Human Rights Watch and 43 other organisations, also, wrote to the International Finance Corporation:IFC, urging it to take a series of steps to help its clients avoid, minimise or revisit retrenchment decisions and to align with IFC Performance Standards and international labour and human rights standards. The organisations urged the IFC to build upon its interim advice with binding steps and monitoring to promote paid sick and family leave, job protection, employer-provided childcare and health care, occupational health and safety, and non-discriminatory retrenchment, in the event this is needed.

The organisations, also, urged the IFC to follow and build on the good practice of the World Bank and create a dedicated website to publish information about all clients, receiving IFC Covid-19 response financing either directly or through financial intermediaries, and those clients, that are substantially revising their projects in response to Covid-19.

Human Rights Watch and nearly 100 other human rights and anti-corruption organisations have urged the IMF to mitigate risks, such as, hidden contracts, overpricing and collusion, governments should be provided with support and commit, at a minimum, to:

::: publish all public contracts;

 ::: use open and competitive bidding and strictly limit the use of emergency non-competitive processes;

::: publish the names and beneficial ownership information of companies awarded contracts; and

::: empower anti-monopoly agencies, where they exist, to monitor market conditions in critical sectors to avoid collusion or overpricing.

Capitalism’s Olden Politics the Olden Political Philosophy and the Olden Political Economics Are All Dead and They Are Wrapped Around the Neck of All Humanity as an Infinite Albatross: It Is Time to Discard These Dead Lots Out and Create Something Infinitely Better to Serve All Humanity Liberty and Equality

 

 

|| Monday: June 01: 2020: Munayem Mayenin || ά. ||  || ά. Dear Reader, due to being infected by COVID-19, following which came Pneumonia and following which there came further complications, all of which threatened existence and all that, in addition to all the sufferings, has cost Regine Group of Publications to lose, almost, three months’ worth of publication. And we resume today with the beginning of summer and very much hope to keep on doing our job: to bring forth the challenge to capitalism and the need for humanity to see past capitalism, which has reached its end and this pandemic has laid bare its absolute inability to offer a sustainable system of economics. The olden politics, the olden political philosophy and the olden political economics are all dead and they are wrapped around the neck of all humanity as an infinite Albatross and none of the existing political forces or parties will or can do anything to change anything because they all subscribe to this dead old thing with infinite loyalty. Our loyalty is for, to and with the dispossessed of the world and we shall keep on going speaking for this dispossessed majority of the entire humanity.

The future of humanity depends on humanity rising to reject this whole dead lot of olden things and work to bring about monumental and seismic change to lead humanity to liberty and equality in new system of economics and public affairs management system, that not only establish liberty and equality for all but, also, re-humanise, re-enfranchise and re-empower humanity so that they exist in real and measurable liberty and equality with all the powers residing in the people and through exercising that natural powers all humanity, all individuals as being their own High-Representatives organise, shape, construct, develop and run all the institutions they need by themselves so that powers reside only in nature and not in bodies of any kind; bodies exist because people direct and lead them to exist they way they want them to exist through the mechanism and rule of law and not by any elite groups or parties etc.

We resume publication of both our titles with the summer and we shall forever remain rooted in the spring for we sincerely and whole heartedly believe: ‘’Hope is the seed, sign and science of progress.’’ As America burns and agonises in righteous anger, fury and rejection of the evils of injustice through the bleeding wounds of a combination of inequality, injustice, poverty, lawlessness and desperate devaluation, contempt and disregard to the sanctity of human lives, that are ‘poor’ or dispossessed, these evils of all kinds, including, self-loathing or what others call racism and a fragmented society, that not only does not do anything to change this sorry and evil state of things but, also, allows and tolerate it to keep on lingering, festering, spreading and getting worse, the world over the same disposed and the disempowered or all the dispossessed have been let out onto the street to fend for themselves while the rich are getting all the support bonanza they can get and there’s no political force willing or able or equipped to stand and fight for them.  

This unforeseeable emergence, arrival and spread of this pandemic and the vast number of deaths, sufferings, hardships, sorrows and economic, social and cultural damages make the world and world humanity weaker where as our existential problems, such as, global warming, climate change, air and marine pollution and the environmental abuse, toxification and degradation and the dangerous level, degree and speed of bio-diversity loss, as well as, capitalism’s very unsustainability, all its high-cruelties, high-barbarities and high-brutalities remain here and they are not going to go away. Weaker may the world and world humanity have been made by this pandemic but we are made much more desperate to act now and act with decisively clarity, resolve, determination, speed, urgency and immediacy.  

The youth of this humanity across the world need to grasp the vision of the future and venture out and onto this new path to bring an end to this monstrosity, called, capitalism and begin to architecture a new world, new world humanity for do not look into the olden rotten status-quo; they are incapable of leading to anything or any place better than what they have dug themselves into thick or thin with rigid, dogmatic and absolute loyalty till death. It is up to the youth of this humanity where the hope and optimism reside. Do not waste your time seeking to work as some form of ‘pressure groups’, courting meeting with leaders of parties and forces, that would like you to keep on doing that so that they get the photo opportunities. Plastic surgery won’t resolve the infinite ugliness and horror and obnoxious features of this thing, called, capitalism. A beast can not be transformed into a human being. Monstrosity, evils must be fought and defeated and discarded away so that humanity can build, create and architecture by reason, by the infinite imagination, ingenuity and creativity to begin again: ending our sorry human condition of being transformed into dehumanised zoohumanity and, once again, seek to become and remain humanity naturale: at liberty and in equality at all times under the rule of law in natural justice. The youth of the world: it is time you take it up: the choice, that is he choice before you and stand up and get to the street and claim the future today. For the olden lots are not going to do that because they are incapable of doing so.  

And, we would like to thank every soul, that sent us mails, wishing us well or wondering whether we were still here! The last email, sent by some soul, when we were literally at death’s door and, was, even, unable to see their message for some days. Thank you. We are still here and we remain thankful for this being here among you all. ‘’Hope is the seed, sign and science of progress.’’ Just beyond the summer, we hope things will get better and we shall see you all at the VIII London Poetry Festival 2020: October 14-15 where we shall launch our latest title, The Humanion Larnaarch, the Research Journal. Stay well and safe and, regardless of the social distancing, stay together in spirit for we are here, all connected to the invisible ecology of what we are: humanity, we are one and we are an infinity unfolding itself.

This Is A UN Report: Though the United Nations Is Neither the Body Nor Does It Have the Power to Do Anything About It: The World and World Humanity Need a New Body to Lead the World For a Better and Sustainable Human Condition For This Capitalistic Onslaught Is Absolutely Unsustainable: Rising Inequality Affecting More Than Two-thirds of the Globe But It’s Not Inevitable But This Is Being Enforced on That Vast Majority of Humanity

 

 

|| Wednesday: January 22: 2020 || ά. Inequality is growing for more than 70 per cent of the global population, exacerbating the risks of divisions and hampering economic and social development. But the rise is far from inevitable and can be tackled at a national and international level, according to a flagship Study, released by the United Nations on Tuesday, January 21.  The World Social Report 2020, published by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs:DESA, shows that income inequality has increased in most developed countries and some middle-income countries, including, China, which has the world’s fastest growing economy.

The challenges are underscored by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr António Guterres in the foreword of the Report, in which he states that the world is confronting ‘the harsh realities of a deeply unequal global landscape’ in which economic woes, inequalities and job insecurity have led to mass protests in both developed and developing countries. “Income disparities and a lack of opportunities are creating a vicious cycle of inequality, frustration and discontent across generations.” he writes.

That’s right, he writes and he can only write. This is the saddest truth. The world does not have a body as the ‘Universal State of the Entire World and of the Entire Humanity’, that has the legitimacy, jurisdiction, powers, organisation, system, apparatus, mechanism, will and the ability and mandate to enforce that will, given by the entire world’s entire humanity. These reports are good to bring these issues to fore but this is no news: capitalism is such a system of economics, that can not but keep on creating, distributing and advancing and enlarging inequality and poverty as it goes.

It is the political economics of each and every country, including, China, that claims to be socialist but it is nothing of the sort and in such countries, such as, the United States of America, the very people elected Mr Donald Trump or in the United Kingdom, people elected Mr Boris Johnson, to name just two countries, who have shown not a nano-iota of a commitment to do anything about changing the shape or size of capitalism. Therefore, neither the people of America nor the UK can expect that, some miraculous reasons, these two leaders will go on doing anything at all about changing anything.

This means that it is time the world humanity and each nation on earth work hard to create progressive forces and they work their hardest to show why they are progressive and the world sees movements in these fronts, that what needs to happen is ‘the changing of the guards’: the economic system of capitalism has become the death-clasp on humanity, that is doing nothing but enabling the rich getting richer and richer and the number of the poor are increasing in alarming rate, as well as, poverty and inequality are increasing with similar rate that the entire system is absolutely unsustainable. It is absolutely, absolutely, absolutely unsustainable.

No peoples of the world can expect that the vast majority of people in each country will just keep on going to get devastated and destroyed by these capitalistic onslaught on their state and quality of life and human existence by all the high-cruelties, high-brutalities and high-barbarities of capitalism of all these poverty, hunger, malnutrition, unemployment, unemployability, lack of housing, lack of medical care, lack of and absence of any social security, lack of social care, lack of education and much more besides and they are going to keep on paying the price while the robbery ‘open season’ keep on going.

This can not go on but it shall keep on going until new progressive forces develop and begin their work for change. That progressive forces must be found in each country, in each people and in each nation and all these progressive forces work in concert, in unison and unified way, as, though, they are part of a universal grid of progressive forces of the entire world and entire humanity and they do not lock themselves up in the ‘terrible cage’ of their own country’s maps but, are working together with the world framework to bring about seismic change. Each country needs change but, a country on its own can not sustain such a change unless it is part of the entire world’s grid of progressive forces so that they all are working together to create the ‘motherboard grid’ of the earth, of the world, in which each country fits in and, all, together, create that universal progressive world.

The world and the world humanity require much more seismic change than a French or October Revolution or Long March. The time is now and this work can not begin soon enough. Except, the saddest fact is this that we are nowhere near that point. The world has taken a ‘sickness route’, on which all the major peoples of the world have fallen under the regressive forces while the so-called progressive forces, all over the world, have fallen into irredeemable a state of absolute disarray, simply, because they are still regurgitating the old books. Capitalism will not be made better by Marxism or socialism or communism. The world requires seismic change, that the progressive do not find in the olden books. It is time they begin their task anew, afresh to create that vital and historically necessary endeavour to create the progressive forces, newly revitalised and re-architectured and they go about working to bring about that seismic change.

America is not going to go anywhere so long two elites of the rich are organised into two similar parties, rehashing each other’s ‘stand-points’ of the same oath: to keep on protecting the ‘status-quo’ and existence is rotated around presidential elections, when these parties keep on regurgitating the same old mythologies. Where are the progressive forces of America? This is just an example. This situation applies to most places on earth. The world only changes for the better when progressive forces present a progressive philosophy, progressive political philosophy, progressive political economics, progressive sociology and a progressive jurisprudence and based on that create a progressive, revolutionary and visionary programmes of actions by which they work tirelessly and inspire, unite, educate, empower and lead the dispossessed to bring about that seismic change.

Across the history of human progression progressive and regressive forces fought: the former for bettering the human condition, the later to keep serving its own consumeristic, selfish, indulgent and corrupt self-interest to maintain the status-quo. Where and when progressive forces won the human condition advanced and where and when regressive forces won the human condition worsened and taken backward. The current world is overtaken by the regressive forces and it is, therefore, absolutely paramount that progressive forces unite and work together in concert and in unison to fight back and direct the human condition towards the progressive path once again: towards liberty, equality, justice and fairness for all. 

Having said all this, we return to this Study. The study shows that the richest one per cent of the population are the big winners in the changing global economy, increasing their share of income between 1990 and 2015, while at the other end of the scale, the bottom 40 per cent earned less than a quarter of income in all countries surveyed.

One of the consequences of inequality within societies, notes the Report, is slower economic growth. In unequal societies, with wide disparities in areas, such as, health care and education, people are more likely to remain trapped in poverty, across several generations.

Between countries, the difference in average incomes is reducing, with China and other Asian nations driving growth in the global economy. Nevertheless, there are still stark differences between the richest and poorest countries and regions: the average income in North America, for example, is 16 times higher than that of people in sub-saharan Africa.

The Report looks at the impact that four powerful global forces or megatrends, are having on inequality around the world: technological innovation, climate change, urbanisation and international migration. Whilst technological innovation can support economic growth, offering new possibilities in fields such as, health care, education, communication and productivity, there is evidence to show that it can lead to increased wage inequality and displace workers.

Rapid advances in areas, such as, biology and genetics, as well as, robotics and mechanical fabrications, are transforming societies at pace. New technology has the potential to eliminate entire categories of jobs but, equally, may, generate entirely new jobs and innovations. 

For now, however, highly skilled workers are reaping the benefits of the so-called ‘fourth industrial revolution’, whilst low-skilled and middle-skilled workers are engaged in routine manual and cognitive tasks, are seeing their opportunities shrink.

As the UN’s 2020 Report on the global economy showed last Thursday, the climate crisis is having a negative impact on quality of life and vulnerable populations are bearing the brunt of environmental degradation and extreme weather events. Climate change, according to the World Social Report, is making the world’s poorest countries, even, poorer and could reverse progress made in reducing inequality among countries.

If, action to tackle the climate crisis progresses as hoped, there will be job losses in carbon-intensive sectors, such as, the coal industry but, the ‘greening’ of the global economy could result in overall net employment gains, with the creation of many new jobs worldwide. For the first time in history, more people live in urban than rural areas, a trend, that is expected to continue over the coming years. Although, cities drive economic growth, they are more unequal than rural areas, with the extremely wealthy living alongside the very poor.

The scale of inequality varies widely from city to city, even, within a single country: as they grow and develop, some cities have become more unequal whilst, in others, inequality has declined. The fourth megatrend, international migration, is described as both a ‘powerful symbol of global inequality’ and ‘a force for equality under the right conditions’. Migration within countries, notes the Report, tends to increase once countries begin to develop and industrialise and more inhabitants of middle-income countries than low-income countries migrate abroad.

International migration is seen, generally, as benefiting both migrants, their countries of origin as money is sent home and their host countries. In some cases, where migrants compete for low-skilled work, wages may be pushed down, increasing inequality but, if, they offer skills, that are in short supply or take on work, that others are not willing to do, they can have a positive effect on unemployment.

Despite a clear widening of the gap between the haves and have-nots worldwide, the Report points out that this situation can be reversed. Although, the megatrends have the potential to continue divisions in society, they can, also, as the Secretary-General says in his foreword, ‘be harnessed for a more equitable and sustainable world’. Both national governments and international organisations have a role to play in levelling the playing field and creating a fairer world for all.

Reducing inequality should, according to the Report, play a central role in policy-making. This means ensuring that the potential of new technology is used to reduce poverty and create jobs; that vulnerable people grow more resilient to the effects of climate change; cities are more inclusive and migration takes place in a safe, orderly and regular manner.

Three strategies for making countries more egalitarian are suggested in the Report: the promotion of equal access to opportunities, through, for example, universal access to education; fiscal policies, that include measures for social policies, such as, unemployment and disability benefits and legislation, that tackles prejudice and discrimination, whilst promoting greater participation of disadvantaged groups.

While action at a national level is crucial, the Report declares that ‘concerted, co-ordinated and multi-lateral action’ is needed to tackle major challenges, affecting inequality within and among countries. The Report’s authors conclude that, given the importance of international co-operation, multi-lateral institutions such as, the UN should be strengthened and action to create a fairer world must be urgently accelerated.

The UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which provides the blueprint for a better future for people and the planet, recognises that major challenges require internationally co-ordinated solutions and contains concrete and specific targets to reduce inequality, based on income.

And, to conclude, the United Nations is not going to be strengthened; no government of any state of the world would change its public policy agenda because it came to power to implement that agenda, which are to keep on the same path of capitalistic onslaught and nothing will change and the next version of this Report will come up, again and again, only, each successive one will portray worse a state of affairs: reporting poverty and inequality increasing and getting worse. That is why progressive forces are a must for the regressive forces have taken over the world and it is up to the progressive forces to prepare, organise and work to unite the dispossessed, the powerless to rise up for that political struggle to change the world and bring about seismic change.

When the Working People Find Subscribing to the Mythology Implanted in the Political Sphere That Tells Them to Better Their Lot They Should Elect a Republican Such As Donald Trump or a Conservative Such As Boris Johnson Should All the Forces and Agencies Working for Advancing Workers’ Interests and Rights Shut Themselves Down and Join the Republican or Conservative Parties

 

 

|| Sunday: December 14: 2019 || ά. We publish an email, sent out from the Economic Policy Institute of America:EPI, by Mr Steven Greenhouse, that speaks of the ‘attacks’ the Trump Administration has continuously made and are still making against the workers and working people of America, many of whom were led to believe voting Mr Trump was going to serve and protect their interests. The rich owned media outlets have all supported the ascendancy of Mr Trump and they still do and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future.

However, in the political arena of forces and organisations in America and all other places of this world, they are doing the same: the charges of these rich-owned media outlets are that the very parties, forces and organisations, that exist to advance workers’ interests have ‘abandoned’ the workers and, they, therefore, should turn to the parties, forces and agencies, that stand diametrically against the workers and workers’ interests, which they were able to ‘implant and get accepted’ by many workers in the latest general election in the UK. These rich-owned outlets say that the Labour Party has abandoned the workers as the Conservatives say and they should vote the Conservative Party to ‘advance their interests’, while the truth is that this very Conservative Party in government for the last decade ran nothing but a political economical war against the very working people, their families and all the working and non-working poor and the most vulnerable? How does that grand lie get accepted by the people, who were directed to vote the very Party, that has never done anything to protect the interests of the workers?

This is because the entire body of and, they are the overwhelming majority of the whole, the rich-owned media outlets of all forms and mediums, including, the new lot of the entire distorteddia conglomerate now have joined in to ‘destroy, devastate, annihilate, terminate and assassinate’ the leaders and leadership of progressive parties and forces and, particularly, the leaders to a point that, to the entire electorate, that ‘Leader’ stands as ‘the enemy of the people’, ‘the enemy of the working people’. Perfect example of this is the current Labour Party Leader Mr Jeremy Corbyn. At the last General Election they did the same but was not as successful to complete the task. However, the Labour Party has undertaken the political work necessary  since the last general election, in which  task it has spent enough time developing the party and party’s membership base and regenerated it all and taken wider the Party’s support base and all of which created a political programme, that has not been produced by any political party in this world since the October Revolution. It was a radical, detailed, courageous and visionary programme of actions, that united all the enemies of the working people against it, who, united and invigorated, in their hatred, allocated much resources towards the Conservative Party and lent it the loyal support and campaigning power of the entire lot of the media outlets, that they own, to launch a counter attack to ‘devastate, destroy, terminate and politically assassinate’ the origin, source and inspiration of ‘such dare’ for advancing the workers’ rights by the Labour Party in the name of its Leader Mr Jeremy Corbyn.  

However, it must be said that the Labour Party Programmes and its Manifesto was not a Communist Manifesto translated at all but a true but visionary and pragmatic reflection, response and resolution of the current desperate state of capitalism, bringing the entire human existence and life and the web and ecology of life on earth towards facing extinction by global warming and climate change, environmental degradation and toxification of the waters and air, as well as, the unsustainability of capitalism because of it advancing and enforcing all the high-cruelties, high-brutalities and high-barbarities, such as, inequality rising to unsustainable level, poverty, hunger, malnutrition, poverty-wage, rough sleeping, homelessness, zero-hour contracts, blocking education and devastating vital public, civic and community services, including, health, social care, legal and judicial, local government budgets, law enforcement etc and, withdrawal of vital investments from vital national infrastructures, particularly, social housing.

However, the saddest irony is this that that ‘radical’ a programme of actions of the Labour Party has done one thing: it has brought the Labour Party the closest it has ever been to the working people; except, the workers and the poor have been directed to reject it all and go towards the Conservatives and that has been achieved by the entire rich-owned media joining the Conservative Party propaganda, manipulation, herding and directing machine in running the largest, most concerted and most vicious campaign in print, online, on television, on radio waves and on the entire range of the distorteddia conglomerate and in reality to destroy and devastate and terminate the very name, the very person, that has done that: that has brought about the largest challenge, that the rich has ever faced in the UK since the October Revolution in the world. Were the Labour Party able to get successful in winning this General Election the World’s capitalism will have been made irreversibly different than what it has been because it would have sent out ‘revolutionary nutrition, oxygen and air’ of inspiration to the wider world’s progressive movements.  

The rich saw it, rightly in their view, as the biggest attack on capitalism as the October Revolution’. In this they have used every trickery, every lie, every possible falsehood and fabrication, falsification, propaganda, direction and herding all applied together. They have used fake and falsified stories and conducted a misinformation, disinformation and conspiracy theories and much more in an ever-going, ever-increasing and ever-vicious, ever-brutal, ever-virulent and ever-concerted ‘misinformation war’ and all of which targeted the ‘synonym’ of their enemy, ‘the enemy of the people’, ‘the enemy of the working people’, the leader of the Labour Party, Mr Jeremy Corbyn and they have successfully ‘assassinated’, albeit, not physically, his entire person, life, life’s works and what he lived and existed and worked for’ throughout his life and made him into that loathsome ‘enemy of the people’, ‘enemy of the working people’ and they have been able to sell that to a great number of working people in many areas and communities, who were abandoned not by the Labour Party but by the ruthless monstrosity of capitalism in the era of globalisation in which the neo-liberals thought they would make the entire world their ‘hunting ground’ and in so doing they went ahead and brought about the financial crash because they had already converted capitalism into pseudonomics and both by both the Blairite New Labour, which had taken the Labour Party’s title and put in it fake Labour, that was why Mr Tony Blair was ‘blessed’ by Mr Rupert Murdoch, who invited Mr Blair to go and give a Key Note Speech at his News International and the Conservative Party, whenever it has been in power kept on dismantling whatever was advanced to better the working people’s lives. The last ten years, this Conservative government has done nothing but running a political economical war against the entire country’s working and non-working poor and the most vulnerable and it has created the sociology of squalor and food banks, rough sleeping and homelessness and hunger and endless other evils, to devastate the lives of individuals, families and communities, that have been abandoned by the entire state, run by the Conservatives. It was not the Labour Party, led by Mr Jeremy Corbyn but the Conservative Party government.

However, in order to sell this the Conservative Party has already created the ‘mechanism’ of execution: the exiting the European Union, which itself is a political philosophical and political economical vehicle to advance extreme English Nationalism to counter the rising nationalist tides in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland by which it has wasted three years in absolute and comprehensive waste and people have become truly, tired, sick, exhausted and nauseated to, even, hear it, ‘brexit’ by which the Conservative Party propaganda machine and the entire united rich-owned media outlets ‘shepherded’ the electorate towards voting for it because whatever else was there people just wanted to put this horrible thing out and away, never to hear again. And, for these three years waste and paralysis they were successfully able to sell that the UK had not so far left the European Union because that ‘enemy of the people’ Mr Jeremy Corbyn and his Party was the ‘supreme culprit’. It was he who did everything to block ‘the precious brexit’. It is an utter lie: it was the whole Parliament, including, may other parties, as well as, many Conservative Party’s own MPs, who joined together not to block exiting the European Union but to ensure the UK did not leave the EU without a deal. There’s much difference between these two things.

However, with that ‘mechanism of execution’, the Conservative Party and its supporting media outlets managed to establish all the lies and falsehoods, fabrications, conjectures, conspiracy theories with their polls, polls of polls and projections and they used all the ‘tools’, that they could, including, lying to their teeth and mouth and eyes and ears in every possible ways and every possible means. They were vicious, they were virulent, they were ruthless and hostile and horrible: they were repeating and regurgitating the lies everywhere and every possible second and all of that were directed to devastate, destroy, terminate and conduct the political assassination of Mr Jeremy Corbyn, which were taken up and taken wider and given validity by the entire lot of the rich-owned media outlets and the job was done. It is no exaggeration to say that no political leader in the history of human progression has ever faced such continuous, such ever-ferocious and such ever-going infinite level, degree and magnitude of vicious, ferocious, merciless, hostile, aggressive and brutal abuse, attacks, demonisation and vilification, that Mr Jeremy Corbyn has faced, which has destroyed not just him but the entire of his life’s tirelessly devoted, whole-heartedly committed work to advance workers’ life and rights and better the human condition for the majority.

However, in this Labour Party and what work it has produced where the world’s progressive forces will find what their response must be in how they approach and fight this ‘infinite onslaught of money and manipulation and propaganda’ to destroy the forces, that work and that wants to advance the workers’ rights and interests. Unless and until these forces take the task to create, establish and run a ‘political university’ at every place, where workers live and work and offer that political education to the workers they do not become the workers they ought to become so to become politically educated and politically conscious enough to realise and understand their rights and how they face the conditions they are in and why and how must they seek to achieve the means to better that human condition of all workers and with that knowledge and understanding, knowledge and insight they acquire the skills to challenge, resist and fight to destroy the ‘propaganda, manipulation, directing and herding’ efforts, run and conducted by the rich and from all the apparatus they own and, thus, get united and gather all workers in defying the lies, falsehoods and mythologies and keep on the fight to keep on going until they win the political fight.

This is an infinitely mighty task that all over the world progressive forces have been failing to undertake, conduct and advance and that is why they have been paying the price and that is why the working humanity of the world face this tragedy that they are turned against their own interests and against the very forces, that exist to advance that and they are voting people like Mr Trump or Mr Johnson or others like them. Despite its radical programmes the Labour Party has failed to do exactly that: it has not created, run and conducted that political university and it took the view that it could fight the entire combined lot of the rich-owned media outlets and the Conservative Party’s propaganda, directing and herding machine and win against them by only using the distorteddia outlets, which are part and parcel of the rich-owned outlets; except, they are, at the same time, beneficiary of making a killing from the very Party, seeking to use them. Two examples, the distorteddia let the Conservative Party getting their ‘fake Labour Party Manifesto website’ promoted in them because it was paid for it while the fake website was promoting the Conservative Party advertisements and lies and in other another distorteddia outlet lets the Conservative Party propaganda unit naming itself, ‘factcheckuk’ from where they were ‘falsely’ presenting ‘falsehoods, lies and political manipulation messages.

Further, the distorteddia have destroyed the entire ‘window’ of presenting facts and truths and everything is turned and twisted until all of these become an endless flow of untruths, lies, fabrications and all of them get disseminated to millions in seconds and, that, then, get ‘validated’ by the rich-owned media outlets, they, then, determine who or what gets terminated. The Labour Party has failed in this fight because it went to fight a most sophisticated, most well-resourced and most well-equipped and most powerful an army of an enemy with sticks and stones and clubs. There is hardly any outlet in all forms, that exist to offer it or its cause its support. The best weapon in advancing the workers’ interests and rights is the politically educated, equipped, skilled and empowered workers, that nothing else can replace and that nothing can direct, dictate, herd or manipulate. That does not get to and won’t happen unless the political parties and forces, that are seeking to change and better the workers’ lives and life’s condition and their interests, take up, create, run and deliver that political university to empower the workers with political, political philosophical, political economical knowledge and know-how and equip them with the vitally important political, social, interpersonal and other equally vital skills, so to enable them to keep on seeking and trying to achieve economic and political empowerment as they conduct and advance the political fight to unite and inspire the working people for whom they work and exist. That work is abandoned all over the world by these progressive forces and that is one of the reasons why these forces are failing miserably and that are part of the reasons why people like Mr Trump and Mr Johnson and other populists like them are winning because they are ‘selling’ themselves as the ‘champion’ of the workers and the ordinary people.

On the other hand, the Labour Party sought to use the distorteddia itself, as, if, it was the alternative to reality; it is not and it can not ever be so. Reality can not be alternated by anything: the distorteddia exists to make profit. The good old-fashioned political works in reality, where real people and real workers live, work, exist, relate and interact can not ever be replaced by any other works on any medium of any media outlets. The political parties, their members and their supporters must connect, relate and form, foster and enhance human relations, bonds and comradery  with the people, with whom they are to work and for whom their organisations exist so that a General Secretary and the other members of a local party’s organisation committee must get to know all the party members, all the workers in that area and where they work and who they are and they should relate, create, foster and maintain that relationship to all those they work with and for so that the party workers and activists become part of the lives of the people for whom their party or organisation exist and that is the power, that is the force, that is the spirit, that is the mechanism, that is eternal and that no earthly force can bend, twist, destroy or direct. If, any political party, that says that it is a workers’ party or workers’ organisation and it says that this work it can not do today can go away and dissolve itself.

The distorteddia is not going to win anyone any election for the workers because these distortive outlets are part and parcel of the rich club of the world and they have transformed capitalism into pseudonomics and they want that to keep on going so that workers’ rights do not exist but robotic open seasons keep on increasing their profits while the workers get poverty-wage, poverty and hunger, as well as, zero-hour contracts and the rest of the high-cruelties, high-brutalities and high-barbarities of capitalism. On top of that, these distorteddia have created the ground works in which the entire system of governance and electoral and democratic process have fallen under their prowess and these all face a terminal end unless the world and progressive political parties and forces wake up and fight these degradation and disintegration of the democratic process.

The UK Labour Party has done much work but it must now keep on going and building on that work and begin a new chapter of creating, running, conducting and delivering that University of Political Education and leave the distorteddia and get on the streets and walk to every place, where there’s a worker, shake her hand, speak to her and sit and listen and take her name and where she leaves and create real human relation, that grows and expands and soon there will be an infinite green-grass-carpet of these human relations, connecting all workers, as, if, they have been placed on that body of green-grass and their roots are all connected and connecting the entire humanity of these working people across the landscape, who no media or no media manipulation can dare dictate, direct and herd in buying the lies being attempted to sell to them that the rich people’s selected and paid elite-run parties are the ones the working people should vote for. That work must begin now all over the United Kingdom and all over the world for the world’s working humanity has been taken backward: the workers are taken farther back than, even, how workers were before May Day: workers on poverty-wage are working and still forced to queue at food banks to feed their families. It is unsustainable and it can not go on but it shall keep on going and keep on getting worse unless workers are united as a politically educated and politically conscious and politically empowered and politically equipped, that is united and connected with such a powerful connection, bond and comradery, that no earthly force can dominate, dictate, direct or herd. Such a politically educated, political conscious and politically equipped working humanity can do anything it seeks and strives to do, including, winning general elections because in any given country the number of working humanity outnumber the rich by the largest majority, which is what is required in representative democracies.

Why Humanity Must Rise to Discard Capitalism In Order to Keep on Existing on Earth Because It Is Capitalism That Has Brought the Earth and Humanity to This Total Wipe Out: A: Lack of Universal Education Higher Education and Life-Long Learning

 

 

|| Sunday: November 09: 2019: Munayem Mayenin || ά. We began this piece on Friday’s edition of The Humanion Portable Daily, October 25, that picked a list on the human condition, that capitalism has brought on earth and sentenced the vast humanity to perish away in suffering a horrendous human condition, comprised of all high-cruelties, high-barbarities and high-brutalities and, with it, led everything towards creating an unsustainable way of ‘wasting away’ in endless consumption for infinite greed for profit, into extinction: extinction of all expressions of the ecology of life on earth, including, humanity. From today, we will take up each item on the list and highlight, what that has established on earth for humanity.

Today we begin at A: Lack of Universal Education Higher Education and Life-Long Learning: In humanical societies, learning, continual and eternal, is a Universal and Eternal Building-Block Foundational Human Right, that every human soul is lawfully guaranteed to have for life, from cradle to grave for without the knowledge, learning and wisdom, there can not exist a humanity naturale simply because it is a continually developing and evolving thing and unless, it keeps on learning, it can not keep on developing itself and, thus, it will fail to evolve the way it ought to do: to be and do humanity naturale, getting better at everything all the time, bearing in mind that less than 02% of the human genome has been expressed so far of that humanity naturale, that means that in the eternal developmental scale, humanity has 98% human genome yet to be expressed! Yet, capitalism and those, who are lovers of it, claim that this is the high-pinnacle of human development! But this capitalism has established one thing for sure; its high-principle or high-corruption banditry: that the highest most ‘moral act’, which is the lowest most immoral, unethical and grotesque act, for it to do or follow is to ensure the rich get to take the biggest cut from the total output of the workforce or rather, that their profit is not minimised.

To ensure that is the case, this brutal system of economics, pays poverty wage to the majority of the workers with which they can not sustain a tolerable human existence because they are, then, forced to subsist with that poverty wage to suffer all high-cruelties, high-barbarities and high-brutalities of poverty, of hunger, of malnutrition and the lack of all things, amenities, services and provisions, that they must have. In other words, by paying the vast majority of the workforce a poverty wage capitalism establishes the ground works of the sociology of evil, that gets implemented on all spheres of existence: political, economical, philosophical, political philosophical, political economical, governantial, jurisprudential, educational, sociological, social, cultural and spiritual and through all these are now enforced the sociology of evil or the lack and absence of things. This appears as the live-in-life-sentence for the vast majority of humanity, a punishing way of subsisting for the maintaining and sustaining of this economic system, called, capitalism.

This poverty-wage-ground-work, then, goes and ensure the implementation of capitalism’s high-principle or high-corruption banditry’, which means that the rich, both as individuals and as agencies or corporations, pay as little as possible tax and this keep on going downward, ensuring the rich always get to rob more and more from the values created by the workforce, who are the only living thing, that can alone create these values through human work or labour, which are converted into prices so that commodities can be transacted with money. This means, the state and government and, thus, society, get to lose the largest portion of wealth and values on which they could get a large tax revenue, which they can spend and invest in bettering the human condition of the workforce to an unimaginable height. This, essentially, disable these agencies in relation to how much they could do. Now they get peanuts from these rich and they, then, go after the very workforce, who have been sentenced with poverty wage and demand that they pay taxes of varying kinds.

It is like this: that capitalism allows the rich to rob the created wealth and values by the total workforce so that the working humanity have very little to keep on going and, yet, they come to the robbed to make them subject to further, legal robbery from the very little ‘bread-money’ they have to pay the taxes. This way these bodies, have very little to spend on what are vital, essential and most needed public, civic and community services, all of which requires investments of financial resources, which they have very little. In this they now ‘cut’ out their priority cake and education gets a little share with which the state and government can not offer Universal Education and Life-long learning to all citizens so they make education a ‘privilege’ for those, who can afford to pay for it. By this way, capitalism and the elites, who are installed in running the public affairs system, ensure that the vast majority of a nation do not get the Universal Right to education, except that education determines their entire quality of existence, life and well-being for generation to generation, that does not ever improve but keeps on getting worse. This is because the elites, who run things, see educated people as harmful to capitalism because they are always going to be difficult to manipulate, herd, dictate and direct.

This scenario changes from country to country: in this the world can be divided in three groups of countries: the advanced economies, the developing economies and the least developed or the poorest of countries. In advanced economies, their states and governments have ensured that young people up to 16 and:or 18 gets a free education but, the quality of which is terribly poor since a great deal of these youngsters do not receive the quality of education, they are said to get because these states and governments do not invest enough to ensure that quality education. They keep on cutting the investments in that sector of education. In these countries the higher education is gated so that only those, who can pay for education get to receive higher and university education. Higher education is made into a debt-bondage. The idea of life-long learning is a lip-service. Because there is hardly any investment and there lacks the culture of life-long learning in this people are supposed to leave ‘statutory schooling’ at 16 and:or eighteen and they are supposed to live up to their old age and they are not supposed to learn anything ever! Therefore, when they are in their sixties they would find the world they ended up in is a Martian landscape from the one in which they had left school! Someone left school when the world did not even a word for Genetics and now a whole lot of decades later they are hearing ‘ancient Greek’ in everyday vocabulary about Genetics, Genes, DNAs, RNAs, human genome, translation and transcription and this and that!

The developing countries spend far less in education than the advanced economies so that their quality of free education, where it is free, is as inferior as their investment in comparison to the advanced economies. However, their reach of the youngsters is not complete so that many do not get that free education. In these countries higher education is gated, too, so that only those, who can pay for it, gets a higher education. Life-long learning does not exist in these countries.

The least developed countries where education simply does not exist for the vast majority of the people. Only those, who can afford would get an education. Where there are state provisions, that reach only the smallest of numbers of the population.

Vast number of human beings across the earth are born and they subsist and perish away without ever having to set foot at a school; they do not get to learn to read and write nor do they learn anything else. That state of existence without any education is literally a different kind of ‘death sentence’ where the humans not getting an education are made to not ever be that humanity naturale because their infinite imagination, ingenuity and creativity have never been shown to them with the light and luminosity of the lamp of education and learning. They do not get to learn and see and experience what they are and what they are capable of and what they want to bring about into existence with, by and in their human life.

They do not get to know how humanity has dawned on earth and how they kept up and going, developing all the times and how they progressed and how to get better. They would not understand much and everything and everyone will keep on telling them what to do, who to vote and everyone and everything will keep taking advantage of them, abuse them and violate their rights because they did not get to know what their rights are and how to protect them! Capitalism has done that all over the world, where millions and millions of children are going without education and a great number of them are ‘forced’ to get into child labour and existing and perishing away in the high-monstrosity of capitalism: blocking off from education and sentencing these vast number of humanity with a life and existence of no-education. If, this is not a high-monstrosity we will have to change the meaning of the word from the dictionary.

Yet, who are speaking about any of these vital and most paramount issues: no, the rich-owned media, press and news outlets have other things to speak of and go on seeking to manipulate but we must keep on bringing these issues up and out for this capitalist system is unsustainable and it has brought us to this state of human condition, that is enough to finish humanity off, if, it continues to enable millions of humans perishing away every year across the earth and those, who are suffering are serving this live-in-life-sentence of misery, agony, hardship and pain!

Humanics has brought about the vision of that future without capitalism; it is new and it will not just disappear but keep on going for humanity can not just sit still and await extinction. Humanity, particularly, the younger generations, must, not go quietly and wait till extinction wipes all out of the earth. This fight for existence, must, gather pace and must we keep on going because otherwise capitalism will bring everything to an end with this phase of it, this pseudonomics, that now ravages the world and world humanity. Humanics is the vision of the future humanity without capitalism towards humanical societies, creating a grid of a humanical civilisation on earth, where and when all humans become truly liberated at liberty and all are equal under the rule of law in natural justice.

Those, who say, humanics! What is humanics! Tell them, there was a time when no one heard anyone, imagining there was going to be a French Revolution and, the, there came the French Revolution. There was a time, when no one had heard of what Socialism and Communism but then, there was the Russian Revolution and the Chinese Long March and there followed hundreds of other socialist revolution in many a places on earth. Let them know that humanics requires only one more person to hear of it and that person will take it forward. Humanity can not exist and gets destroyed through the destructions, inflicted on it by dehumanisation of humanity. This sociology of squalor, spread across the earth, enforced and enforced and established by capitalism, is spreading the sociology of evil and societies are being continually taken towards the path of sociological jingoistic jungles where humanity naturale can not exist as humanity naturale.

Humanics shall keep on going because believe in this that there are more than one person heard of humanics and you are reading about it and countless others are doing so through The Humanion and The Humanion Portable Daily. We have much time to keep at it: remember, we have only 02% of our genome so far expressed: 98% yet to unfold! This road to humanics is a long one and this is ‘The Long Walk to Humanics’. You have already taken the road: keep on walking and speak to the fellow travellers, the fellow humanion about humanics and we shall keep on going till capitalism enters the museum of sociology and students of the future are studying and wondering as to how on earth that system of economics, in reality and brutal mechanism to conduct ‘civilised monstrosities’, managed to survive as long as it did!:::ω.

This Is Why The Foundation Exists: Why Humanity Must Rise to Discard Capitalism In Order to Keep on Existing on Earth

The National Education Service That the Next Labour Government Will Create: Free Education for Everyone Throughout Life As a Right Not a Privilege: No More University Tuition Fees: Free Childcare and a New Sure Start programme: Free Vocational and Technical Education: And Free Training for Adults: Jeremy Corbyn at the Labour Party Conference

 

 

|| Tuesday: September 24: 2019 || ά. Mr Jeremy Corby MP, the Leader of the Labour Party has delivered his Leader’s Speech at the Party’s Annual Conference today. In his speech Mr Corby said, ‘’Conference, thank you. This is an extraordinary and precarious moment in our country’s history. The Prime Minister has been found to have acted illegally when he tried to shut down parliament. The highest court in the land has found that Boris Johnson broke the law when he tried to shut down democratic accountability at a crucial moment for our public life.

The Prime Minister acted illegally when he tried to shut down opposition to his reckless and disastrous plan to crash out of the European Union without a deal. But he has failed. He will never shut down our democracy or silence the voices of the people. The democracy that Boris Johnson describes as a “rigmarole” will not be stifled and the people will have their say. Tomorrow parliament will return. The government will be held to account for what it has done. Boris Johnson has been found to have misled the country. This unelected Prime minister should now resign. That would make him the shortest serving British Prime Minister in history and rightly so. His is a born-to-rule government of the entitled who believe that the rules they set for everyone else don’t apply to them.

That’s what today’s Supreme Court judgement spells out with brutal clarity. There was no reason – “let alone a good reason”, the judges concluded, for the Prime Minister to have shut down parliament. Conference, he thought he could do whatever he liked just as he always does. He thinks he’s above us all. He is part of an elite that disdains democracy. He is not fit to be prime minister. Let me quote the Supreme Court’s conclusion: “Unlawful, null and of no effect and should be quashed” – they’ve got the prime minister down to a tee. This crisis can only be settled with a general election. That election needs to take place as soon as this government’s threat of a disastrous No Deal is taken off the table. That condition is what MPs passed into law before Boris Johnson illegally closed down parliament.

It’s a protection that’s clearly essential. After what has taken place no one can trust this government and this Prime Minister not to use this crisis of their own making and drive our country over a No Deal cliff edge in five weeks’ time. The Prime Minister has no mandate for a No Deal crash-out which is opposed by a majority of the public. It would force up food prices cause shortages of medicines and threaten peace in Northern Ireland thus destroying the work of the Good Friday Agreement. The battle over No Deal isn’t a struggle between those who want to leave the EU and those who want to remain. It’s about a small rightwing group who are trying to hijack the referendum result to rip up our rights and protections to shift even more power and wealth to those at the top.

Under the cover of No Deal they want to sell off what’s left of our public services strip away the regulations that keep us safe while slashing corporate taxes even further. That would mean a race to the bottom in standards and workers’ rights to create an offshore tax haven for the super-rich. And they want all of this locked in with a one-sided free trade deal that would put our country at the mercy of Donald Trump. That’s why a No Deal Brexit is really a Trump Deal Brexit. That would be the opposite of taking back control. It would be handing our country’s future to the US president and his America First policy. Of course Trump is delighted to have a compliant British prime minister in his back pocket. A Trump Deal Brexit would mean US corporations getting the green light for a comprehensive takeover of our public services

I am not prepared to stand by while our NHS is sacrificed on the altar of US big business or any other country’s big business. And in the coming general election Labour will be the only major UK party ready to put our trust in the people to have the final say on Brexit. We need to get Brexit sorted and do it in a way that doesn’t leave our economy or our democracy broken. The Tories want to crash out without a deal and the Liberal Democrats want to cancel the country’s largest ever democratic vote with a parliamentary stitch-up. Labour will end the Brexit crisis by taking the decision back to the people with the choice of a credible leave deal alongside remain. That’s not complicated Labour is a democratic party that trusts the people. After three and a half years of Tory Brexit failure and division, the only way we can settle this issue and bring people back together is by taking the decision out of the hands of politicians and letting the people decide.

So within three months of coming to power a Labour government will secure a sensible deal based on the terms we have long advocated and discussed with the EU trade unions and businesses: a new customs union a close single market relationship and guarantees of rights and protections. And within six months of being elected we will put that deal to a public vote alongside remain. And as a Labour prime minister I pledge to carry out whatever the people decide. Only a vote for Labour will deliver a public vote on Brexit. Only a Labour government will put the power back into the hands of the people. We can bring our country and our people together. Let’s stop a No Deal Brexit and let the people decide.

We must get Brexit settled not least because Brexit has dominated our politics for too long. The coming election will be a once-in-a-generation chance for real change. A chance to kick out Boris Johnson’s government of the privileged few and put wealth and power in the hands of the many. A chance to give our NHS, schools and police the money they need by asking those at the top to pay their fair share. A chance to take urgent action on the environment before it’s too late for our children. And a chance to end the Brexit crisis by letting the people .. not the politicians have the final say.

In a shameless bid to turn reality on its head Boris Johnson’s born-to-rule Tories are now claiming to be the voice of the people. A political party that exists to protect the establishment is pretending to be anti-establishment. Johnson and his wealthy friends are not only on the side of the establishment they are the establishment. They will never be on the side of the people when supporting the people might hit them and their super-rich sponsors where it hurts – in their wallets and offshore bank accounts.

Let me send this message to Boris Johnson: If you still lead your party into an election we know your campaign will be swimming in cash. But we’ve got something you haven’t. People in their hundreds of thousands rooted in all communities and all age groups across Britain and we’ll meet you head on with the biggest people-powered campaign this country has ever seen – and if we win, it will be the people who win. Labour stands for the real change Britain needs after years of Conservative cuts and failure. We will rebuild and transform our country so that no one is held back and no community left behind. We live in a country where top chief executives now pocket in just two-and-a-half days what the average worker earns in a whole year. Where Thomas Cook bosses were able to fill their pockets with unearned bonuses, while their workers face redundancy and 150,000 holidaymakers are stranded because of their failure.

We’ve had the greatest slump in wages since the first steam trains were built. To share wealth, we need to share power. And that’s what we’ll do in government with bold, radical measures such as giving the workforce a 10 per cent stake in large companies, paying a dividend of up to £500 a year to every employee. We’ll bring about the biggest extension of rights for workers our country has ever seen. We’ll scrap zero-hours contracts; introduce a £10 living wage – including for young people from the age of 16; give all workers equal rights from their first day in the job; take action on the gender, disability and ethnicity pay gaps; and introduce flexible working time for workers experiencing the menopause.

It’s Labour that will get more money into your pocket, rather than line the pockets of multi-millionaires. And we will give people a democratic voice at work, allowing them to secure better terms and pay for themselves. Within the first 100 days of our government we will scrap the Tory Trade Union Act. And by the way, Labour will never tell people they have to work until they’re 75. A Labour government will mean better wages, greater security, and more say. Putting power in the hands of the people. And we’ll bring rail, mail, water and the national grid into public ownership so the essential services that we all rely on are run by and for the public not for profit.

Yesterday I met Luis Walker, a wonderful nine-year-old boy. Luis is living with cystic fibrosis. Every day he needs at least four hours of treatment and is often in hospital keeping him from school and his friends. Luis’ life could be very different with the aid of a medicine called Orkambi. But Luis is denied the medicine he needs because its manufacturer refuses to sell the drug to the NHS for an affordable price. Luis, and tens of thousands of others suffering from illnesses such as cystic fibrosis hepatitis C and breast cancer are being denied life-saving medicines by a system that puts profits for shareholders before people’s lives.

Labour will tackle this. We will redesign the system to serve public health – not private wealth – using compulsory licensing to secure generic versions of patented medicines. We’ll tell the drugs companies that if they want public research funding then they’ll have to make their drugs affordable for all. And we will create a new publicly owned generic drugs manufacturer to supply cheaper medicines to our NHS saving our health service money and saving lives. We are the party that created the NHS. Only Labour can be trusted with its future.

My parents’ generation fought hard to establish the principle of a universal health service owned and run by the public. They left it in our trust. It’s our duty to defend it. We will end the sell-offs and privatisation. Our NHS is not for sale not to Trump or anyone else. And Conference, we will make prescriptions free in England, as they have been in Wales since 2007 when charges were abolished by the Welsh Labour government. And we need to talk about social care as well. When older people, who have paid into the system all their lives need a little help we shouldn’t deny it to them. So we will introduce free personal care for those who need it as the first step in our plan for a National Care Service.

Government should provide a platform that allows everyone to reach their full potential. That’s the principle behind the National Education Service that the next Labour government will create. Free education for everyone throughout life as a right not a privilege. No more university tuition fees. Free childcare and a new Sure Start programme. Free vocational and technical education. And free training for adults. And when it comes to paying for our public services Labour will raise tax but only for the top five per cent. The Tories will cut taxes for highest paid. Labour will make the big corporations pay the tax they owe. The Tories will give them tax breaks.

How can it be right that the largest companies and wealthiest individuals are being given tax cuts while at the other end mums are dads are missing meals so they can feed their kids? Shouldn’t it be a source of shame that the United Nations – the United Nations – had to take our government to task this year over the shocking fact that 14 million people are living in poverty in the fifth richest country in the world? Let me quote directly from the UN report. It said:

 

“Much of the glue that has held British society together since the Second World War has been deliberately removed and replaced with a harsh and uncaring ethos.” Doesn’t that sum up the Tories: a harsh and uncaring ethos? Labour will stand up for tenants, for underpaid workers, and for all those struggling to make ends meet. We’ll start the largest council house building programme in a generation. Because Labour puts people before privilege. We will end austerity and help rebuild your community. We’ll restore local pride, revive the high streets that are the centres of our communities and reverse the cuts that have caused violent crime to double.

Labour will get our economy working in every town city and region with a record investment blitz, and we’ll boost the devolved budgets in Wales and Scotland. We’ll upgrade our transport energy and broadband infrastructure with 250 billion pounds of investment. And breathe new life into every community, with a further 250 billion of capital for businesses and co-ops. Investment on a scale our country has never known, bringing good new jobs and fresh growth to where you live. That’s the scale of Labour’s ambition.

No more tinkering around the edges. Because these aren’t abstract numbers on a spreadsheet. They stand for an economic transformation that will change your daily life. Let me give you a concrete example of what it will mean. Labour will invest in Crossrail for the North to link our great Northern cities, from Liverpool to Hull and up to Newcastle in the North East. And we’ll restore the bus services that have been cut leaving people isolated from their communities. For decades we’ve been told the economy is beyond our control, an irresistible force that can lay waste to entire communities while we can only watch on, passive.

But it’s not true. With a serious industrial strategy and a radical Labour government, the economy can be a tool in our hands rather than the master of our fate. And with a government that’s prepared to intervene we can prioritise the things that matter most. Which is precisely what our times demand, because nothing matters more than the climate emergency. That means taking on the big polluters and wealth hoarders who profit from the current system. Bringing our emissions down to net zero won’t happen by itself. It will only be possible with massive public investment in renewable energy and green technology.

 

That’s not a burden. It’s an opportunity to kickstart a Green Industrial Revolution that will create hundreds of thousands of high-skill high-wage unionised jobs as we triple solar power, double onshore wind and bring about a seven-fold increase in offshore wind projects. And that’s why we announced today that the next Labour will build three new battery plants in South Wales, in Stoke-on-Trent and Swindon.

The climate and environmental emergency we all face is an issue of global security. We’re seeing ice caps melting, coral reefs dissolving, wildfires in the Arctic Circle and Brazil’s far-right leader President Bolsonaro fiddles while the Amazon burns. Real security doesn’t come from belligerent posturing or reckless military interventions. It comes from international cooperation and diplomacy, and addressing the root causes of the threats we all face. Our foreign policy will be defined by our commitment to human rights and international justice, not enthusiasm for foreign wars that fuel – rather than combat – terrorism and insecurity.

So it really beggars belief that this week Boris Johnson is openly talking about sending troops to Saudi Arabia as part of the increasingly dangerous confrontation between Saudi Arabia and Iran, in an apparent bid to appease Donald Trump. Have we learned nothing? Time and again over the last two decades the British political and military establishment has made the wrong call on military intervention in the wider Middle East, spreading conflicts rather than settling them. We must not make those mistakes again. Under a Labour government Britain will be a force for peace and international justice.

Dangerous and wrong-headed international interventions have also exacerbated community tensions at home. When Boris Johnson compared Muslim women to letterboxes or bank robbers, it wasn’t a flippant comment, it was calculated to play on people’s fears. Displays of racism, Islamophobia or antisemitism are not signs of strength, but of weakness.

This Conservative government as well as the far-right has fuelled division in our society. They’ll blame people’s problems on the migrant worker trying to make a better life. They’ll blame it on the mum who’s struggling on Universal Credit. They’ll blame it on Muslims, on young people, on anyone but themselves and their backers, who benefit from a grossly unequal and rigged system. Labour will do the opposite, we will bring people together. A Labour government will transform our economy and communities. We stand not just for the 52 per cent or the 48 per cent but for the 99 per cent.

The Labour government I lead will take on those who really run our country – the financial speculators, tax dodgers and big polluters – so the real wealth creators, the people of this country, can have the jobs, services and futures they deserve. When Labour wins, the nurse wins, the pensioner wins, the student wins, the office worker wins, the engineer wins. We all win.

The politics we stand for is about giving people who don’t have a lot of money and don’t have friends in high places the chance to take control of their own lives. My job, as Leader, and our job as the Labour Party is to champion those people, to stand up for those communities and deliver the real change our country needs. And I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to every one of them as well as all the members of our party our elected representatives our trade unions for making our party such a strong and welcoming place in every community every workplace and every part of the country.

I have what might be considered a different view of leadership from the one people are used to. I do believe leaders should have strong principles that people can trust. But leaders must also listen and trust others to play their part. Because there are leaders in every community driving change. Many of them would never dream of calling themselves leaders, but they are. I’m thinking of the mother who campaigns on behalf of the residents in her block to get the damp removed, and the fast food worker organising their colleagues to demand a living wage. It’s those leaders Labour is now working with and supporting. Because our philosophy is to trust the people and give them the power to make change in every community and workplace, not hand more power to politicians.

And that’s why, if the British people elect a Labour government in the coming election I will be proud to be your Prime Minister. Because I will be a different kind of Prime Minister. Not there from a sense of born-to-rule entitlement. Certainly not there for some personal power trip. There because I want to put government on your side. To put power and wealth into your hands. There because I believe government should work for you.

And together, we can go beyond defending the gains made by previous generations. It’s time we started building a country fit for the next generation. Where young people don’t fear the future but look forward with confidence and hope. The tide is turning. The years of retreat and defeat are coming to an end. Together, we’ll take on the privileged, and put the people in power. Thank you.

Progress in Health Equity Is Stalling Across Europe: New WHO Report Shows These Gaps Can Be Reduced Within the Duration of One Government Term

 

 

|| Wednesday: September 11: 2019 || ά. The World Health Organisaiton:WHO’s first-ever Health Equity Status Report shows that health inequities in many of the 53 countries in the WHO European Region remain either the same or have worsened despite governments’ attempts to address them. For the first time, the Health Equity Status Report captures the impact of policies to address these risks over the last 10 to 15 years.

It finds that many of the critical factors, that are driving health inequities are not being sufficiently addressed by countries across the European Region. For example, while 29% of health inequities stem from precarious living conditions, 53% of countries in the Region have disinvested in housing and community services in the last 15 years.

This Report is a testament as to how the so-called progressive political forces of Europe have been failing the peoples of Europe because they have forgotten their reason of existence as political forces: to seek to work to make better the lives of these vast multitude of the dispossessed, which requires them to work out what political philosophy and what political economics they are seeking to bring about into existence, that will create a reality, that can be sustained. They are failing the peoples and the obnoxious xenophobic and populist extreme and violent right wing forces are advancing across Europe.

The Report newly identifies five key risk factors, that are holding many children, young people, women and men back from achieving good health and leading safe and decent lives. The range of policies, outlined in the Report stimulates both sustainable development and economic growth.

Reducing inequities by 50% would produce financial benefits to countries ranging from 0.3% to 04.3% of gross domestic product:GDP, the Report finds.

“For the first time, the Health Equity Status Report provides governments with the data and tools they need to tackle health inequities and produce visible results in a relatively short period of time, even, within the lifetime of a national government of four years.” says Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab, WHO Regional Director for Europe.

 Key findings on current health status and trends across the Region show a significant health divide.

::: While average life expectancy across the Region increased to 82.0 years for women and 76.2 years for men by 2016, there are still significant health inequities between social groups: a woman’s life expectancy is cut by up to seven years and a man’s by up to 15 years, if, they are in the most disadvantaged groups.

::: Almost, twice as many women and men in the least affluent 20% of the population report illnesses, that limit their freedom to carry out daily activities, compared to those in the most affluent 20%.

::: In 45 of 48 countries, providing data, women with the least education report higher rates of poor or fair health compared to women with the most education; the pattern is the same for men in 47 of the 48 countries.

::: Where people live influences how long and how well one is able to live: trends show that in, almost, 75% of countries surveyed, the differences in life expectancy between the most and least advantaged regions have not changed in over a decade and, in some cases, have worsened.

::: In the most deprived areas, 04% more babies do not survive their first year compared to babies born in more affluent areas.

::: Health gaps between socio-economic groups widen as people age: 06% more girls and 05% more boys report poor health in the least affluent households compared to those in the most affluent households. This gap rises to 19% for more women and 17% more for men during working age and peaks among those aged 65 and over with 22% more women and 21% more men, reporting poor health in the least affluent households compared to the most affluent households.

::: The accumulated poor health of those with fewer economic and social resources when entering later life predicts their higher risk of poverty and social exclusion, loss of independent living and more rapidly declining health.

The Health Equity Status Report, also, identifies new and emerging groups at risk of falling into health inequity. These include, for instance, young people, who leave school early; these individuals are at greater risk of mental health issues and poverty due to insecure labour markets and higher exposure to frequent periods of unemployment.

Those living with an illness, that limits their daily activities, are disproportionately represented in the least affluent 20%. Life-limiting illness reduces their ability to stay in the labour market and increases their risk of poverty and social exclusion. This massive loss of human potential has an impact on the fiscal sustainability of the countries in this Region through lost tax income and pensions and increased social welfare costs.

Researchers broke the data down to explore what drives health inequities in the European Region. They identified five critical factors and assigned to each a percentage reflecting its contribution to the overall burden of inequity.

Income security and social protection: 35%: About 35% of health inequities result from not being able to make ends meet. People affected, may, include those in full-time employment, who regularly struggle to afford the basic goods and services necessary to live a dignified, decent and independent life; these are the so-called working poor.

Living conditions:29%: This factor includes issues, such as, unaffordability or unavailability of decent homes, lack of food and lack of fuel to heat the home or cook a meal. It, also, extends to unsafe neighbourhoods and violence in the home; overcrowded, damp and unsanitary housing conditions and polluted neighbourhoods. This factor accounts for 29% of health inequities.

Social and human capital:19%: These factors, which account for 19% of health inequities, refer to feelings of isolation, low levels of trust in others and the sense of having no one to ask for help, as well as, feelings of being less able to influence politics and change things for the better. They, also, include violence against women, lack of participation in education and lack of lifelong learning.

Access to and quality of health care:10%: Health systems’ failure to provide universal access to good-quality services and high levels of out of pocket payments for health, are responsible for 10% of health inequities. Out of pocket payments, may, force people to choose between using essential health services and providing for other basic needs.

Employment and working conditions:07%: An inability to participate fully in the labour market, which affects the quality of day to day life and longer-term life chances, accounts for 07% of health inequities. Quality of employment is equally important, as insecure or temporary jobs and poor working conditions have a similarly negative effect on health.

“This Report explains how we can achieve health equity and bring positive change into the lives of all people in our Region. Through this effort we can achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly, Goal 10 on reducing inequity, the only Goal, which is not improving in our Region.” says Dr Jakab.

|| Monday: June 03: 2019 || ά. Following many weeks of government-forming negotiations, since, the General Elections in Finland, that took place mid-april, negotiating parties agreed and presented a new Government for Finland today. According to the founding agreement of the new Government, which is being led by Prime Minister Mr Antti Rinne, the Leader of the Social Democratic Party, Finland is directed towards an ambitious, bold and visionary course, that aspires to include vocabulary, such as, socially, economically, ecologically sustainable society, where it acknowledges, accepts and chooses education to be at the highest part of the political agenda and programme of actions.

There is nothing socially, economically and ecologically sustainable for any society, that does not see this that the quality of its entire nationhood is a direct result, product, output and harvest of its investment in its education and life-long learning: only educated, knowledgeable, insightful, skilled and competent people of a nation can and do have the ‘resources’ to, not only work, create, develop and run such a society but, also, ensure that such society is not ‘wasted away’ by mis-direction, that savages the very society by disempowering and disenfranchising the very populace, that constitute such nation.

This new Government is a coalition between the Social Democratic Party, leading partner, the Centre Party, the Greens, the Left Alliance and the Swedish People’s Party. The new government will include 19 ministers: seven from the Social Democratic Party, five from the Centre Party, three from the Greens, two each from the Left Alliance and the Swedish People’s Party. Mr Antti Rinne takes over from the Government of the outgoing Prime Minister Mr Juha Sipilä. The founding document of this Government says, ‘’Climate change, globalisation, urbanisation, the ageing of the population and technological development, may be, transforming Finland and the world faster than ever before. This transformation offers great opportunities for the development of our country but, it, also, creates insecurity and concerns about what lies ahead. To face this transformation, we need policy measures, that offer people a sense of security and hope for a better future.’’

The document offers the aim of the first Government of the new decade is to seek work to build a socially, economically and ecologically sustainable Finland by 2030. The Nordic welfare state and its key pillars, income security, well-functioning health and social services and solid education, as well as, high expertise create a robust and just platform for the work on reforms. In the socially, economically and ecologically sustainable Finland the economy is managed for the people, not the other way round. Sustainable economic growth is built on a high rate of employment and strong public finances.

The Government of Antti Rinne aims to create 60,000 new jobs, which will be achieved by measures, that boost the demand and supply of work. Besides a higher employment rate, sustainable growth, also, builds on more robust work productivity. The new Government rates education and research very highly. Education and culture are an important part of our value system and are considered to be a means of guaranteeing individual freedom.

‘’In the 2020s, wellbeing will continue to draw on knowledge and skills and on work and entrepreneurship. We must bring Finland’s level of education and competence back up to the top of the world league. We aim to boast the best working life in the world; to be a nation with happy and competent professionals, where every person’s knowledge and skills are put to good use.’’ puts the document.

Social responsibility means that we take responsibility for each other and our common future. This means a sense of trust that we will all be looked after when we are no longer able to do so ourselves. It means taking care of the whole of the nation and ensuring that our country develops equitably. Not a single senior citizen should be afraid of getting old; not a single young person should be at risk of exclusion. We will build a Finland that is child-friendly, a country where families and their opportunities to make choices are supported and where parents contribute equally to caring for their children.

The world of the 2020s needs trailblazers. An ecologically sustainable Finland shows the way in mitigating climate change and protecting bio-diversity. The Government is drawing a roadmap for an emissions-free Finland. The Nordic welfare model, combined with responsible and decreasing use of natural resources, is a model, that will guarantee the future competitiveness of our country.

The Destructions: The Establishment of the Sociology of Squalors Advancing the Sociology of Evil

 

 

 

 

 

|| March 07: 2019: Download This Piece in PDF || ά. We find the sociological squalors, created by the mandatory enforcement of  all high-cruelties, poverty, inequality, hunger, malnutrition of many kinds, rough sleeping, homelessness of many kinds, unemployment, unemployability, token mandatory education failing a great number of young people, leaving education without much achievements or skills, becoming unemployable, higher education is made into a debt bondage and, effectively, blocked for people, who can not pay to study further, life-long learning has been relegated to park rangers’ services, this has reduced the highest-most importance of education, given by societies, cultures and peoples so that misogyny, hatred, phobias, prejudice, hatred and discriminations and all other evils have been spreading in all societies and with these go on the suffering of severe and punishing state social security benefits and living in every day expressions of ‘poverty’ in all spheres and domains, devastated by severe, drastic, devastating, continual and ever-deepening cuts in investments and spending in public, civil and communal facilities, provisions and services by capitalism through the eradication of society’s aspiration towards keeping on remaining and keeping on seeking to be more and more civic in nature and replacing this with mandatory imposition, distribution and advancement of a jingoistic political philosophy and political economics, through which to conduct the philosophical, political economical and sociological war against humanity in expanding the scope and reach of dehumanisation of humanity with all the capitalistic apparatus, including, the distorteddia conglomerate, in which all qualities, states, virtues, straits, properties and characteristics, that constitute humanity, as persons, as families, as communities, as organisations and agencies and as society are eradicated and all of which are replaced by their negations, which create the sociology of evil, in which, now, the very person of human mind or the agency of the human mind is eradicated and with it the very human ecology, created by persons, families, communities, organisations and society are eliminated and replaced by a jingoistic jungle, that is fed by the creation, maintenance and advancing of sociological squalor and that festers in an ecology of all negations, that is the exact opposite of what humanity is as humanity naturale, which can only be described as a sociological hell, that we are calling the sociology of evil. The highest most state of most advanced, most sophisticated and most enlightened human condition can be said to be such in which humanity can and does exist as humanity naturale in a civilisation, constructed, organised, run, advanced, nurtured, fostered and maintained as humanical societies, run in humanics, human enterprise and humanicsovics under the rule of law in natural justice. The very opposite and contrary to this state is the establishment through dehumanisation of humanity a jingoistic jungle in sociological squalors, where the exact opposite of humanity naturale has been established in the name of the sociology of evil. In this we, must, bear in mind that, the force, that is fighting to eradicate something is not just seeking to eradicate that something but, at the same time, is seeking to replace that, what it has eradicated with something else, which is, in this case, the exact opposite of what is humanity naturale in a civic society, which is dehumanised humanity, herded into a state of a jingoistic jungle, organised in the sociological squalor under the dictatorship and punishing regime of the sociology of evil. Thereby, where dehumanisation of humanity is achieved, destroying, negating, eradicating and terminating humanity naturale from all things human: the individuals, the persons, the families, the communities and all the human agencies and organisations, that are all-out, combined and unified total expressions of the very humanity. This way following the termination of humanity naturale the jingoistic ecology is created to replace the negated by all the negations of all the virtues, constituting humanity, which is done through the creation, maintenance and advancing of the sociology of squalors, where the sociology of evil now thrives. In such sociology of evil these states of the exact opposite of humanity naturale are common place and the norm and their occurrence, frequency, tendency and states keep on getting to more extreme as time progresses with the progression of the sociology of evil: crimes of all sorts, particularly, vicious and violent forms both in the use of weapons and styles and manners of attacks, suicides and self-harms, mental illnesses, addictions, inciting others to hatred, violence and aggression, violence both in domestic situations and outside, aggressions, violent anger and impatience, hostility, arguments and brawling, intolerance, viciousness, brutality, savagery, opinion fascism, absence of decency and civility, raw, base, crass, vulgar and tasteless expressions in conducts, behaviours, actions and the use of language, unkindness, rudeness, cruelty, attacking, abusing and assaulting at all times whatever can be attacked, abused and assaulted, cynicism, apathy, antipathy, inconsideration, thoughtlessness, selfishness, self-centredness, consumerism, self-serving, self-gratification, voyeurism and unquestioning and general acceptance, establishment, advancement and practise of cynicism, masochism, famino-masochism, chauvinism, consumerism, rouge-ness, racism, supremacy theories, xenophobia, discrimination, hatred, abusiveness, abrasiveness, lack of hope, faithlessness, hatred towards education, hatred towards science and mathematics, opinioneering without base, basis or reason, anti-reason, anti-evidence and subscription and advancing of conspiracy theories, that are baseless and evidenceless, that are  directed against established historic truth, about established science and mathematics, malicious lies, dangerous falsehoods and horrendous mythologies, all of which seek to advance credibility and acceptability by the sheer number of people subscribing, sharing and accessing these sources. In the distorteddia conglomerate these have advanced to a level, degree and depth of being a pandemic and because all people and agencies are using the distorteddia all these are directly imported, used and implemented in real life whereby all the domains and spheres of discussing, debating and advancing the  public discourse have been suffering as a result. It has been increasingly becoming, almost, ‘the killing’ mechanism to debates, discussions and discoursing and in maintaining diversity in discussions and debates and, in this, unprecedented level and degree of abuse, aggression, hostility, threats of violence, even, death threats and the application of the lowest level and form of vulgar, raw, crass and crude rudeness, incivility and indecency, directed against people, involved in public life, particularly, against women and people from all minorities.

Political and Governance

The very organisation, structure, system and basis of governance system or their political philosophy in capitalism does nothing but to act against nature and enforce massive and mandatory dehumanisation with the establishment of the representative democracy. This system directly, fundamentally and absolutely establishes: disenfranchisement, disempowerment, disownment, disjointments and distancing of all human individuals, in which their voices and their choices are lawfully and constitutionally taken away from them so that they can not as themselves, as individual agencies of the human minds, take part, get engaged and run their public affairs management system but they are lawfully and constitutionally forced to give all their powers, all their choices and all their ability to conduct judgements to their elected representatives, who are to exercise their voices, choices  and judgements while the people as individuals or families or communities have now no power to do anything other than, after a specific duration of time, to, simply, go and give their consent, once again, to be kept voiceless, choiceless and judgementless. This massive, all-out and overwhelming disenfranchisement, disempowerment, disjointments and distancing of people have been growing more and more and getting wider and more systematic as representative democracies advance and consolidate. This system takes away the very core of human’s empowerment or, rather, the very foundation of what it means to be a person, to be a human being or to be human because without being able to exercise the power of choice and judgements humans have no other means to seek to try and do, be and remain human. This way, a group of people, individuals are elected by the very people so to, effectively, make and keep the people voiceless and choiceless. This is the profoundest of all dispossessions of humanity, that is enforced to the populace by the representative democracy. Therefore, in representative democracy, the vast majority of the entire humankind is made dispossessed other than those, who have been given the power by the dispossessed to exercise that power on their behalf. This is the political philosophical dispossession, imposed on the vast majority of humanity by the current capitalist system and its system of governance: representative democracy.

These are the political, social, cultural and spiritual dehumanisations. This is why more and more people are becoming apathetic, angry and hostile to the governing classes and political parties and the professional politicians and the ruling elite and this is why there are growing demands that people are consulted by the ruling elites in referenda and plebiscites because people are feeling their absolute and complete disenfranchisement, disempowerment, disjointments and distancing from the running and management of the public affairs management system of their countries. However, looking at examples of such exercises, bringing in the recent UK European Referendum in mind, that would provide a classic example of a massive museum of evidence to suggest that this can not be done: public affairs management system can not be run through referenda or plebiscites. It makes it, almost, impossible to keep the governing apparatus going and engages the entire nation and all its energies in falling into a self-destructive waste of a whirlpool from which no one can seem to find a way out. However, this serves the point to illustrate that people are rising to demand their power, franchise and ownership of their persons, of their voices and choices, of their judgements or, in short, of their humanity back, that the representative democracy takes away from them. This representative democracy is the cause of the most profound dehumanisation, that renders the populace mute, inert, inactive, cut off and out, without any say whatsoever so that regardless of how they vote they do not see anything changing because the elite has subscribed to the representative democracy and the capitalistic apparatus and system so that they keep on keeping the status quo going.  This, goes onto feeding the anger, resentment, hostility, cynicism, apathy, lack of trust and faith, which grow more and more for each election goes to reinforce the existing view, that nothing changes at all. In, effect, nothing changes at all: the system remains representative democracy, the political economics remains capitalistic and the vast world remains owned by the tiny minority of the rich while the entire earth is populated by the vast majority of the dispossessed, the working and non-working poor. 

Take the European Union countries as an example, where there are so much and increasingly growing discontents among the populace against the institution, which, its elite find difficult to understand and which the neo-nazis and neo-fascists and all the crass, base, raw and extreme nationalists are using and abusing through the effective use of the distorteddia conglomerate. This is happening because the entire European Union and all its apparatus and mechanism subscribe to the two dehumanising and disempowering systems: the representative democracy and the capitalistic apparatus to run their political philosophy and political economics and in that they have established a status quo, that will not change and does not change and people, the vast majority of the people, who are low-wage-earning and who are working poor and, added to them, are the entire range of people, who are jobless, elderly, ill and frail and who are disabled, mentally ill and the young or those, who can be said to be vulnerable in society, are given a live-in-life-sentence of misery, hardship, agony and suffering, every day, every night, every week, every month and every year. This state of suffering goes on eternally in the European Union for flowing millions of people always suffering this live-in-life-sentences, yet, the European Union and all its ruling elite keep on portraying that they have established a ‘heaven on earth’ in the European Union’. Added to all these millions and millions of people, individuals, families suffering, many communities dotted around the landscapes of European cities, towns and villages, have been left abandoned and, in these communities, suffering goes on from generation to generation and nothing changes for the better but get worse on a continuum going downhill all the time. Further, since, the financial crash the European Union has imposed mercilessly, fiercely, ruthlessly and violently: austerity on entire nations, particularly, against the majority of the poor peoples, nations, that fell victim to the crash more prominently, such as, Greece, Italy and Spain and others but this same brutal austerity has been imposed on all European Union countries as well but against the vast majority of their working poor and the most vulnerable as mentioned but they have been given harsher, harder, stronger and longer live-in-life-sentence and the European Union supervises with absolute precision, power and certainty that these majorities in all EU nations, who are low-wage-earning, who are working poor and all the most vulnerable of all European societies, keep on serving these sentences without being able to do anything about this horrendous state of suffering. This is why the neo-nazis and neo-fascists and the extreme nationalist forces have been able to use and abuse these very suffering peoples to turn them against the European Union. Furthermore, the collapse of the socialist experimentation and the capitalist propaganda to use this as a coup against and succeeding in destroying socialist economics and its world movement and all the socialist, communist and worker parties or the so-called left and progressive parties and forces suddenly found that they were fast becoming out of fashion and a lot of their support bases began to respond to the new nihilist kind of popular politics, that has nothing to offer for they subscribe to all the horrors of the capitalistic system and, were they to have any power, they will establish the most hellish kind of capitalism and, discard, even, the representative democracy and import and impose hellish and monstrous dictatorships across the world, which is what they like. Therefore, this European Union has established these sociological squalors, in which it abandoned the poor and the working poor, the low-wage-earning working people and the people on benefits and pensions and included in these groups are the children and the young and it has enforced this live-in-life-sentence of continual suffering, hardship and misery for these vast multitude of humanity and in these there are created, sustained and advanced sociological squalors because these states, governments and the entire European Union mechanism and apparatus cut drastically spending and investments so that in these communities things have been falling apart. There were riots in the UK once in the recent times, as well as, in France and many other places unrests and upheavals are taking place in many a country, centred around whatever issue people could find usable: in France people are gathered around the Yellow Vests, in the UK people got around voting for leaving the European Union. People are desperate and they have no power to change this status quo of neither Europe’s nor their own countries’, that have accepted capitalism and dehumanisation of humanity and the representative democracy while this body, this European Union is capable of creating, maintaining and sustaining this status quo with absolute determination, precision, control and certainty. Nothing can change nor nothing has the power to change this deathly status quo in the European Union, the people, have the least of powers for the representative democracy has taken their voice, choice and power in the first place. All the factory workers across Europe, all the workers at all the cafés in Europe, all the cleaning staff, logistics staff, all the auxiliary and ancillary staff, all the workers, that run and keep the entire road and highway networks working, the entire sewage and underground networks, much of the workforces, engaged in many vital industries, at national education and national health services, to name a few, across Europe and a great deal of all government workers, governments of all layers, across Europe are paid horrendously low wages and salaries and they have no power to do anything about this state of a live-in-life-sentence of ever-going suffering, hardship and agony, in which they are always, in an endless and ever-going struggle to maintain their horrendous life condition keep on going, the same way and the say direction, every day, every week and every month and every year, year after year while this never gets better and always gets worse. No one will  or can change it because the European Union and all its states and governments subscribe in maintaining as the death-knell of certainty: the status quo, that can not be sustained but it is being sustained by the sheer power of its ‘mechanism’ and apparatus and the pulling together of enormous financial and human resources at its disposal and the absolute disenfranchisement, disempowerment, disjointments and distancing of people from their power, from their voice, from their choice and from their very humanity go on. This is how desperate things are across Europe and it is far, far worse in all other places, where there are worse systems of governance in place, instead of, even, representative democracies, in the world and, yet, nothing changes nor will anything ever change because Europe is organised in all these states and governments, that themselves are run the same way: they all subscribe to the old books of rusted and ruined capitalism and the parallel to challenge capitalism, socialist or communistic aspirations and efforts of the world have given way into a terrible lack of alternative and creating a sense of now-what-kind-of despairs and hopelessness, that can not do otherwise. Because there is no alternative to the current status quo. People are being strangled by these monstrosities and there is no way out until and unless the world and world humanity look out, look in and look about and accept that this capitalist apparatus is nothing but a killing mechanism and it keeps on advancing dehumanisation, it keeps on making societies jingoistic and keeps on distributing, advancing and enforcing all high-cruelties, that it can not but create and maintain: poverty, inequality, hunger, malnutrition and acute and severe malnutrition, rough sleeping, homelessness, unemployment, unemployability, lack of education, blocking of higher educational pathways, strangulations imposed and enforced by the severe, harsh and ever-continual cuts, getting larger and larger with time in investments, services, provisions and facilities so that  everywhere poverty is being displayed and marked in the lack of all these civic, communal and public services, amenities and facilities whereby these are creating sociological squalors, in which dehumanisation of humanity is getting complete and human ecologies are being replaced by the sociology of evil and, the entire world bodies and agencies and the humanity of the world are entangled and lorded over and are directed, dictated, manipulated and herded by the distorteddia conglomerate as they steal and rob value, worth and wealth out of the economic and financial mother system so that it will keep on coming back to a point after a tolerable space of time, where everything will crash and the vast majority of the working people, the working poor and all other poor will be sentenced to keep on paying and serving harsher live-in-life-sentences for longer for these robberies, that they had nothing to do with. Then, the states and governments will use quantitative easing and print money and give the robbers another chance to steal and rob these again to their hearts content while the working and the poor humanity shall be made to keep on paying and serving their harsher, harder and longer live-in-life-sentences and this will keep on going till nothing can be made to go on any longer and everything will collapse into a massive nightmare and darkness, in which the height of the sociology of evil shall crush any flicker of humanity, that still echoed through the world and world humanity.

These realities are causing a set of syndromes for human individuals, for families, for communities, for agencies and organisations: individuals are falling into disrepair through individual psychosis, families are falling into familial dysfunctionality, communities are falling into becoming dis-communities or rather, being strangled by the lack of humanity and human ecology, created by human engagement, interactions and working together, organisations and agencies of all kinds, including, the states and governments and all others, are falling into conducts and behaviours, that lack the abilities, skills and human resources to act, run and conduct themselves with rational, logical and common sense an approach and, thus, fallen short in standard of acting, conducts and behaviours as the individuals, families and communities have done: one thing they have all in common: they have all been responding to dehumanisation by falling away from the state they used be in and losing their ‘self’ and their criterion because now they are all working in a jingoistic jungle, in sociological squalors, where the sociology of evil keeps on getting stronger and stronger and where humanity faces the reality, that it is fast becoming the exact opposite of what it used to be as humanity naturale as the sociological squalors keep on delivering the strengthened sociology of evil. All these are enhanced, emboldened and amplified by the arrival and utilisation of the distorteddia conglomerate in concert with all the apparatus of the capitalist system. In this each person looks at their powerlessness and realises that in this overwhelming state of negations life has become a miserable experience, that it can not ever, even, experience as real because everything it used to have to do this: to exist as human individual agency of the human mind has been devastated so that all it can do now is to exist in illusions with fake, false or pseudo memories, being a home for individual psychosis, that home is being eternally devastated by a society, that has suffered social psychosis and in these states sociology of evil in the sociological squalors keeps on advancing dehumanisation of humanity while the profiteers and the distorteddia conglomerate keep on harvesting profits and keep on increasing their profits with time..  

The Fundamental Disconnection Through Mandatory Homelessness

In the entire capitalist world and system the only humans, that have, what we would call, absolute home, meaning that they have it in such a way that no one can force them out of these homes ever. In this they own their homes outright and that they are capable of keeping them as such without ever becoming ‘unable’ to keep them exactly like that. This means that only they have ‘forever’ homes. And these are the people, who are members of the tiny little club of the rich in each people, in each country, in each nation. The rest of these nations are the vast majority of people, who are not rich and who do not have any such ‘forever’ homes. They are, effectively, homeless. Apart from the tiny per centage of the tiny rich club, the rest of humanity is homeless. Now, the majority of any nation falls into this homeless category, which can be divided into some sub-group.

A: The Mortgaged

This group members buy their homes with mortgages in which the banks, that loaned them the mortgage own their homes and, as, if, where and when they fail to keep on paying the mortgages banks can and will drive them out of these properties and recoup their money. For this group of people, they will have borrowed, almost, too much for their abilities, which means that having to pay a large mortgage they are left with very little to ‘live and exist’ as human beings. A vast majority of people, can be deemed as ‘enslaved’ for their mortgages into a horrendous life of suffering in many types of poverty. In this, many millions of these people, will be unable to pay for the repair and maintenance works of their home because these are very expensive, which they do not have the money to pay for so that not only they suffer poverty but, also, live in homes, that, go bad to worse and become, in the long run, inhabitable for humans. This group would form the largest group of people and households in this category in any given country. Because of these needs, they suffer and keep on suffering poverty and live a horrible life and this eats away at them, tear away at them all their life. Where they have paid some parts of the mortgage and their desperation grows they would be forced to borrow more against that equity and use that to pay for desperately needed repair work etc so that they fall further behind with their mortgage in the sense that, as, if, they had not been paying the mortgage on the house for the last ten years simply because they have re-mortgaged that house against the last ten years of mortgage payments. However, these groups, still do not have these homes as ‘permanent’ because many things could go wrong and they will come to lose their homes. Whatever, their state is in this situation of supposedly owning their home, this is the fact that they have no connection, ownership to their nation’s total wealth or assets. They are homeless like all others, that we are going to look at one by one. But this illusion of owning one’s own home enslaves them into an existence in terrible and continual poverty, that they keep on suffering behind the façade of their homes, that hide, for many, inhabitable spaces for human habitation, that, often, they are unable to fix.

B: The Renters

This is the Renting Group. This is the largest group in any nation, who rent their homes simply because they do not earn enough to be able to draw large enough a mortgage to be able to buy a home. These people live a life of the ultimate misery for, often, they find, they are treated as criminals because they are poor and are daring to rent a place. Further, because of being low-income households, always being in various forms of poverty, always struggling to pay their bills on time, they suffer the ‘imposed fiscal dictate’ of the capitalist system, that collects their financial histories and issues an assessment of their financial ‘worth’ or standing in the name of credit reference, this cripples their ability to either get any credit or, even, to rent a place to live because their prospective landlords credit check them on top of seeking references, the renters are to pay all these charges, as well as, demanding a large amount of money as deposits and rent in advance. In this, it is harder in most cases to rent a place than to buy one! However, often, they rent places, that are not in a good state so that, even, though, paying rent, they are living in horrible accommodations and, yet, they are moving from one place to another because their landlords keep on chasing them out because they want to increase rent or they do not want anyone staying in their properties for too long. In this, this vast number of people of any nation, are the most haunted and most persecuted humanity on earth. They keep on moving from one place to another and in a life time they, may be, forced to move ten, twenty, thirty times or more. Because of this these people find it almost impossible to create, sustain and maintain lasting connections and relationships both with places and people. This causes suffering and damage to their psyche but, at the same time, it damages families in how they relate to each other and how strong their bonds are as families and it impacts on community cohesion because in communities people are coming and going and no one really gets to know anyone so that everyone accepts that they need not bother. This creates persons and families, who are rootless, which impact on the individuals and the families they belong to, both of which, become weaker and they stay rootless and they keep on getting weaker and weaker as individuals and as families and it creates communities, that are sand-grain-collectives, where like sand-grains, people, individuals and families are not related, not connected together with human, social and cultural connections, links and relations to the others in that same community. This means that communities get weaker as time goes and, this weaker communities make society weaker, too. This weakness can be imagined as large lightning strike in the sky: where weak persons or individuals create a weak mark of their presence, that goes to create, make and maintain weak families, that goes to support an ever-weak and ever-weakening community and all these sand-grain persons, in these sand-grain families, create and maintain sand-grain-collectives of hollow, weak and shallow and ever-weakening communities, that neither can create nor sustain strong society at all.

C: The Homeless In Floating

This third group of people are individuals and families but the system, may have, accepted that it had a duty to house them but it does not have any place to place these homeless people, who have no homes and who can not rent from the market so that these authorities will rent temporary bed and breakfast places, where these families and these people and their children and old and disabled and all kinds of vulnerable people are placed on temporary basis. They are, often, kept on being moved from one place to the next. Often, these places are horrible and not suitable for human habitation but these helpless people, families with young children or people with many health conditions or disabilities or mental health issues are kept in such place, in limbo. Their children’ education has no meaning and these people are floating away, wasting away in limbo. These members of homeless humanity are left in a state of being broken as individuals, as families and people. Their humanity and their existence are placed in a vacuum of non-existence, perishing away all the time, suffering away all the time. 

D: The Rough-Sleeping Homeless

The rough sleepers. These are the most desperate of all homeless people in any country. They have no homes and they can not ever buy a home nor can they ever rent a home and the government bodies have taken the view that to these homeless people they owe no duty and they throw them out onto the streets and there they suffer and, often, they suffer from many illnesses and health conditions and many have mental health issues and on the street, being hungry and thirsty and cold they fall ill or their existing illnesses get worse and many die in that horrible state.  

E: The Young Homeless

The young, who live and grow with families have no home as they leave family homes and they can not buy their own homes nor can they rent nor the governments will accept any duty towards them.

F: The Pensioners and Elderly Homeless

Depending on where on earth these people are living, a lot of these people, might, end up homeless and fall to destitution and in advanced economies, were the elderly people to have owned their own homes, which, might, have been sold to pay for their social and personal care so that they become homeless again or, they will keep on losing more and more of their home as they keep on paying for their residential care. 

These are the various types of homeless people capitalism create and maintain so that sociologically, politically, economically looking at this state of homelessness one can not but see that the ‘nation’ or people of a country is, only, hypothetical for these vast majority of the people of a nation have no connection, no ownership or stake to the wealth of that nation and they, therefore, are rendered powerless, disenfranchised, disjointed and disconnected from being part of that nation. This is how capitalism acts against people and against humanity and against human existence; this is how it takes away the very elemental, inalienable and fundamental natural human right for all humans to exist on earth from the vast majority of the people of any given society! This is the true state of affairs, that dictate and devastate people’s very existence and the quality of their life and quality of their existence. This creates and keeps on weakening and breaking all forms and expressions of humanity: the individuals, the families, the communities and the society: all are made to suffer weaknesses and all of them keep on weakening and suffering, that keep on increasing as the build-up of the sociological squalors keep on gathering momentum. This is the foundation of the sociological squalor, on which the political, economical and governance inflicted disempowerment, disenfranchisement, disjointments, disconnections and distancing add their inflictions to humanity so that sociological squalor advances wider and deeper, where the sociology of evil thrives.

The Low-wage and Low-salaried Working People

This is the largest of all working people in the world, who are forced to work in terribly low-paid jobs not because they create low-worth, low-value with their work but capitalism allows the owners to rob the greater parts of their created worth and value so to take more profits into their pockets so that the system pays the vast majority of the work force the lowest possible wage with which they can not exist other than living in continual poverty of many types. The states and governments can require that companies pay workers a living wage, by which they can live and feed themselves and their families so that they do not suffer poverty and hunger and malnutrition but their masters would not want them to do so, so that they keep offering lip service and some countries pass minimum wage laws, which is just a smoke-screen for minimum wage is set in such a figure that it simply is not enough for working people in this wage to sustain themselves without suffering severe poverty and hardship. Some countries, different governments, who tend to seek to advance workers’ rights sought to correct this by introducing minimum income guarantee and, particularly, for families with young children, so that the states pay an added, supplementary working benefits to such working families so that they do not live with their children and young people and other family members in poverty and hardship. But since the financial crash governments in countries where such benefits were introduced began to cut and reverse these changes so that many working families and workers without families began to fall into hardship. However, these benefits were seen as ‘given’ to working people and viewed as such that, it was shown by propaganda that these working people are ‘scrounging’ on these benefits and these should not be given, while the fact is this that the working people should not be given these benefits to begin with and the states and government should require the businesses to pay the workers a living wage so that they did not have to subsidise the workers so to ensure they do not go hungry! But they not only fail to do that but, then, despite with good intentions, other governments went and set out these working benefits, that went to the workers, true, but it went to the workers so that their employers were released from paying them a living wage and these government funds, that came from public taxation, is now, despite going to the workers, is being paid back to the employers to keep as added profits, that otherwise, they would have been required to pay the workers as living wage, which now they did not have to do. In this, these benefits, that are supposedly going to workers are, essentially, government funds going to subsidise the employers to enlarge their profits, which funds the government could use in bettering other public services and the workers did not have to take the ‘point fingering’ that they are ‘scrounging’ on the states but now, even, that, the governments began to cut away severely! However, in many countries in the world there are no fixed minimum wage and in many places workers’ wages and salaries are absolutely horrible. This gets worse for the poorer countries in the world, whereby the richer countries stop producing products and services in their own countries because that cost them far higher and, thus, they get to make smaller profit so that they go to the poorer countries and pay the lowest possible cost to get these products and services being ready for them so that they make bigger profits. But, even, with these minimum wages, the largest number of workers are employed in this group and they are the working poor, they suffer a horrible poverty devastated life and their families, particularly, their young and elderly and disabled suffer the consequences of that brutal barbarity all the time. This is the other front of the sociological squalor and these people are, mostly, homeless in the renting category and they live in horrible accommodations and, thus, in horrible areas, where everything is cut and being cut increasingly deeply and severely so that their neighbourhoods are the poster faces of that sociological squalor. Everything is cut, everything is falling apart, services, amenities and provisions shut, cut and shuttered or shutting away, moving away. Education: cut. Youth services: cut, family and maternity services: cut, community services: cut. Poverty is everywhere and one can not escape it. There are foodbanks growing everywhere, charity shops going everywhere because many people can not buy anything else. This is the front of the severest of sociological squalor and this group of working poor and all other poor and vulnerable people get devastated by this sociological squalor. And, in this, there are cheap shops and outlets selling cheap and unhealthy products and foods and other necessities and people struggle, even, to shop in these outlets. They get all kinds of illnesses, they get all kinds of health issues and they suffer more than the richer areas and, generally, they tend to die years earlier than their rich counter parts. Their children achieve very little educationally and that determines or, rather, marked them for life as to what quality of life awaits for them in the future and for their future generations. On top of all this, there is much crime, there are knife crimes, gun crimes, teenage pregnancies, robberies, burglaries, thefts, gangs and ganglands appear. Drugs and alcohol and their use and abuse and, generally, all the related sociological disorders and conditions creep in and arriving in these sociological squalors no one can deny seeing what one does. And, many of the properties, buildings, houses, shops and places show their state of dilapidation and disrepairs on their faces but their insides are much more horror-stricken than their exterior.

Generally, in such places, education provisions are poorer for the cuts impacts the poorer the most like the way an infection impacts the hardest to the one already weak by other infections so that any cut, applied to the poor, hit the poor the hardest because they were receiving very little to begin with and now getting any per centage less means a harder impact. Educational provisions in such areas suffer from much in the form and manner of between no and hardly any expectation both from the educational establishments themselves and from the very people and whose younger generations they are seeking to cater for. Further, the structures of the households in these areas are impacted by many breakages in social cohesion so that not only there are poverty, inequality and desperate state of disadvantage, isolation and disconnections but, also, there are many single parent families, families with members in prison or members coming out of and going back to prison, families with children with the same mother and from many different fathers and, often, the single mothers are left altogether on their own devices in terms of raising and looking after their children and there is much violence, both domestic violence, as well as, general violence in the area or the locality. There is everything, that is lacking except poverty, except disadvantage, except abandonment and except all’s closing and moving out and away. The cuts in all the public, civic, communal and other services means that the youth receive less and less provisions from which they, might have, received beneficial progression but now they do not get that. Instead, they get into the laps of all the gangs and fall into the command structures of ganglands, drug dealers and all other criminals, seeking to use and abuse youngsters for their own advantage. There is generally a lack of everything and, most vitally, absence of hope and faith and trust and once these are eaten away it is hard to rise beyond the depth of hopelessness and desolation. So, the ecology of humanity gets eaten away by the sociology of squalor where begins to thrive the sociology of evil.

Further, in advanced countries, such as the UK, legal aid has been reduced to non-existence so that these people, while desperately needing this to get fair and just treatment in the various branches of the judiciary, particularly, housing, education, family and criminal laws, they get no assistance so that they are subject to much injustices, a great deal of these are caused by the very many layers of governments, that devastate the lives of most vulnerable people, even, the number of magistrates courts, in England have been reduced to, almost, half. The police services, education services, social services, health and community health services, maternity services, youth services, social care and a great deal more are generally reduced to the hard bone so that the entire communities in such places are in desperately devastating sociological squalors gaping at, eating away and tearing away and apart the raging and suffering humanity in these areas of sociology of evil.

All this makes and takes people towards turning against everything and there appears and, it gets strengthened as time goes, apathy so that no one takes part in any other democratic activities, such as, joining in political, social and cultural activities, taking part in elections or voting and so on. There generally enters a closing up of everything so that what goes on outside this ecology is blocked out by the same close-up curtain and with the same cynicism, dismissing and, often, a damn-caring disrespect and abusive kind of attitude to everything and everyone and that keeps on feeding itself. There it creates its own whirlpool, that keeps on swirling round and round and its wastes and wears itself down and down and down. In this now added the distorteddia conglomerate so that, while everyone gets disconnected from their families, communities and realities, they are connected into the entire distortive and illusory world and like the distorteddia conglomerate, there are the various presence of the criminal world, the gang world, the drug dealers and others and they are using and abusing and recruiting and directing many young people and adults in advancing their own interests and agenda and a lot of crimes are being organised and fed by the usage of the distorteddia and their trapediums. Further, the distorteddia has enabled all the obnoxious, horrible and horrendous forces to find it is open season for them because they now have the entire herded mass in one place from where they are seeking to manipulate, direct, dictate and herd the populace in seeking to advance all the sociological squalors and the sociology of evil. This is how the sociology of squalor keeps on going and supporting the sociology of evil to keep on annihilating the human ecology, what of it is still left. Unless, all progressive forces begin to get a grips to these issues and rise to form newer political forces and movements to lead and begin a fight back against these monstrosities, everything is getting lost and nothing will get better: the dehumanisation will keep on going, building up towards a momentum, capitalism keeps on creating and maintaining inequalities and poverty and keep on distributing all its created high-cruelties and the distorteddia will keep on advancing the sociological squalors and bring in harder the sociology of evil as they increase their profits and the obnoxious, horrendous and reactionary forces will keep on advancing, these forces will do nothing but seek to establish the hardest of capitalism, harshest of dehumanisation, the direst of disempowerment and disenfranchisement, cruellest and most brutal form of dictatorship in which women and minorities of all kinds will be established as ‘lesser and expendable ‘objects’, where human rights, civil rights and civil liberties, even, the representative democracy and the what-ever of the rule of law exists, all will have been thrown into bonfire of the ugliest of all sociological squalors and the most horrendous form of sociology of evil. Time it is the world to wake up. Time it is for the working people to wake up and, in this, the hope exists in the younger generation of humanity, to accept this existential fight and go about organising, uniting and rising against these monstrosities of capitalism and all that it has established to bring the human existence to this existential crisis.:::ω.

|| February 06: 2019 || ά. More than six in 10 children globally lack access to social protection, leaving them, particularly, vulnerable to falling into chronic poverty, the UN said on Wednesday, warning that some governments are cutting State cash entitlements, amid continuing economic uncertainty. The Joint Report by the International Labour Organisation:ILO and UN Children’s Fund:UNICEF, shows that, although, a welfare safety net exists for 35 per cent of youngsters overall, that figure drops to 28 per cent in Asia and just 16 per cent in Africa. When Member States ratified the Agenda for Sustainable Development 2030, agreed in 2015 with its 17 Sustainable Development Goals, they agreed to the global initiative’s high priority, namely, eradicating poverty. Here is the absolute irony: these countries signed this ‘paper tiger’: Sustainable Development Goal 2030: They put all grand declarations in it and they said in grand fanfare that they were to achieve these by 2030’, in 15 years: without, even, showing a ‘penny’ to pay for it as investment. And these governments, then, went home and, without fail, all of them followed the dictates of the world business, bank and financial bodies and agencies or, in other words, the agencies, that were set up to service the rich-club, who followed and copied a dead-and-torn-apart-smudged-out-texts from dead political economics in imposing, sentencing and mandating a miserable, horrendous and catastrophic suffering, year after year, after year, of austerity on the vast majority of their own citizens: Where did these bodies find these texts: that directed, dictated and mandated all these governments to impose austerity doggedly to the vast the majority of their citizens and vulnerable people but they, equally doggedly, kept on servicing the rich all the while?

And in this horror-imposition of austerity the entire world governments, all the worlds, the developed world and the developing and the least developed worlds, were forced by these dead-text-agencies, initiated the longest lasting political economic wars against the vast majority of their citizens, the poor and vulnerable people and along with that they have been wiping out any gain, made towards improving the living conditions of the vulnerable people, such as, children and young people, people with disabilities and so on. Were these governments not part of that grand signing of the 2030 declarations? This high-hypocrisy and utter incongruity in and of this mad world are strangling humanity as they drag us further and further towards the most horrid build-up of capitalism’s wasteland: there, a few hundred should rich own the largest chunk of wealth while dictating that the rest of humanity keep paying for their horrid existence through serving the live-in-life-sentence, that they have imposed on them. And, yet, there are these grand goals and there are the two-thirds of humanity’s children left in the strangle-hold of high-cruelty, poverty and on it dances no education and no health and much more besides so that they have an existence, like this little boy, working in Baghdad. This ‘colonisation’ of the world and world governments by these dead-texts financial bodies ought to be given notice: your days are numbered and they should eb offered advice: it is time for you to go and make your funeral arrangements: dead-texts are dead and will no longer work. You no longer can impose and distribute high-cruelties to the vast chunk of humanity. No more high-cruelty distributions: time it is to begin a-new.         

State benefits from public funds, in the form of cash grants, play a vital role in breaking the vicious cycle of poverty and vulnerability. Of 139 countries covered by the Report, on average, they spend 01.1 per cent of their wealth on children up to 14 years old. “There is a huge under-investment gap, that needs to be covered.” said Ms Isabel Ortiz, the Director of the Social Protection Department at ILO. “The numbers worsen by region. In Africa, for instance, children represent 40 per cent of the African population overall but, only, 0.6 per cent is, actually, invested in social protection for children.” According to Report, one in five children globally lives in extreme poverty, defined as less than $01.90 a day and, almost, one in two, lives in moderate poverty, under $03.20 a day.

Children are twice as likely as adults to live in extreme poverty, the Report continues, with lack of access to education and poor nutrition among the most significant long-term impacts. “While social protection cash transfers are vital for children, they shouldn’t stand alone.” said Mr David Stewart, the Chief of Child Poverty and Social Protection Unit at UNICEF. “They have to be combined with other services, if, a child is living in a household with sufficient resources and, if, they don’t have access to educational health, it doesn’t make a big difference. So, it’s about combining these interventions together.”

In addition to the call for governments to invest in universal health coverage and tackle other issues, including, child labour, the UN Report maintains that such measures are not a privilege of wealthy States. A number of developing countries have achieved or, nearly, achieved, universal social protection, it maintains. These include Argentina, Brazil, Chile and South Africa. In Mongolia, which has, also, achieved universal social protection for children, austerity measures threaten these gains, however.

“Recently, due to fiscal pressures from international financial institutions, they have been advising the Government to target the universal benefit.’’ Ms. Ortiz said. “So, it’s one of these cases where fiscal consolidation or austerity short-term, may be, having long-term impacts on children. So, the UN message is to try to look at the longer-term.”

“Child poverty can be reduced overnight with adequate social protection.” Ms Ortiz said. She further added that that improving the lives of all children was an issue of priorities and political will, even, the poorest countries have fiscal space to extend social protection.

Highlighting China’s success in achieving universal health and pension coverage in just four years, is an example of what can be done. Ms Isabel Ortiz said, ‘’Ultimately, the extension of social protection is always about Government’s will. It is because a Government realises about the important developmental impacts of protecting people, particularly, those, that are vulnerable, across the lifecycle, so, in times of childhood, in old age, in times of maternity, protections are, particularly, needed.”

The World Health Organisation Calls for Increased Investment to Reach the Goal for Healthy and Safe Sanitation for All: 829,000 Humans Die Every Year of Diarrhoea: 04.5 Billion Human Beings That’s Half of the Humankind Exist Without Safe Sanitation: If This Is Civilisation Then Humanity in the Caves Were Much Better Off: Or Rise to Challenge and Change This Monstrosity Into a Life and Humanity Sustaining Public Affairs and Economic Management System

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

|| October 01: 2018 || ά. The world will not reach the goal of universal sanitation coverage, where every person in the world has access to toilets, that safely contain excreta, by 2030 unless countries make comprehensive policy shifts and invest more funds, the World Health Organisation:WHO warned today as it launched the first global guidelines on sanitation and health. By adopting WHO’s new guidelines, countries can significantly reduce the 829,000 annual diarrhoeal deaths due to unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene. For every US$01 invested in sanitation, WHO estimates a nearly six-fold return as measured by lower health costs, increased productivity and fewer premature deaths.

And does the world take note as to the grand claim of capitalism that this is the best we can do? £827,000 human being die each year of diarrhoea, which, in today’s medical science advancement is not really a disease, that should kill any human soul! And, yet, it kills, almost, a million human beings? And this rich-dictated world keeps telling us that this is the best we can do? Is this the best we can do, in this monstrosity of capitalism, in which 02.3 billion human beings, lack basic sanitation and the world and all its bodies and all the world governments and all the rich people and those companies, that make a killing each year keep telling the world and whole lot of politicians and political parties, keep telling the world that this is the best we can do! 02:3 billion human beings? How many people is that? How much of humanity is that? This is why we publish The Humanion and this why Regine Humanics Foundation Ltd exists to tell the world that this monstrosity, called, capitalism and the horror of a human condition it has ‘sentenced’ the vast majority of humanity with is unsustainable and it can not and must not be accepted. This must change and there is infinitely a better human condition possible, if, we, reject this claim: this lie that this is the best we can do! In short, this monstrous system is truly a killing machine: do not believe it: add all the humans, that die each year needlessly across the globe and you will find it difficult to sleep for the rest of your life: this is the monstrosity they call civilised and civilisation!

Worldwide, 02.3 billion people lack basic sanitation with, almost, half forced to defecate in the open. They are among the 04.5 billion, who are without access to safely managed sanitation services, in other words, a toilet connected to a sewer or pit or septic tank, that treats human waste. “Without proper access, millions of people the world over are deprived of the dignity, safety and convenience of a decent toilet.” said Dr Soumya Swaminathan, the Deputy Director-General for Programmes, WHO.  “Sanitation is a fundamental foundation of human health and development and underpins the core mission of WHO and ministries of health worldwide.  WHO’s Sanitation and Health Guidelines are essential to securing health and wellbeing for everyone, everywhere.”

WHO developed the new guidelines on sanitation and health because current sanitation programmes are not achieving anticipated health gains and there is a lack of authoritative health-based guidance on sanitation.

“Billions of people live without access to, even, the most basic sanitation services.” said Dr Maria Neira, the Director, Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health, WHO. “The transmission of a host of diseases, including, cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid and polio, is linked to dirty water and inadequately treated sewage. Poor sanitation is, also, a major factor in transmission of neglected tropical diseases, such as, intestinal worms, schistosomiasis and trachoma, as well as, contributing to malnutrition.”

The new guidelines set out four principal recommendations:

: Sanitation interventions should ensure entire communities have access to toilets, that safely contain excreta.

: The full sanitation system should be undergo local health risk assessments to protect individuals and communities from exposure to excreta, whether this be from unsafe toilets, leaking storage or inadequate treatment.

: Sanitation should be integrated into regular local government-led planning and service provision to avert the higher costs associated with retrofitting sanitation and to ensure sustainability.

: The health sector should invest more and play a co-ordinating role in sanitation planning to protect public health.

Some countries have recently taken significant actions:

: India has elevated the challenge of ending open defecation to the highest level. Under the Prime Minister’s leadership, the Swachh Bharat Mission Clean India Programme is co-ordinating action across many sectors to ensure basic sanitation rapidly reaches and improves the lives of millions.

: Senegal is a leader in Africa that recognises the role of pit latrines and septic tanks in ensuring services for all. The government is providing innovative solutions with the private sector to ensure pits and septic tanks are emptied and contents are treated to ensure affordable services and clean communities.

Implementing the WHO Guidelines on Health and Sanitation will be key to meeting the SDGs. In 90 countries, progress towards basic sanitation is too slow, meaning they will not reach universal coverage by 2030. Sustainable Development Goal Six is to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. WHO, together with UNICEF, monitors progress on the following targets:

06.1: By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe water for all.

06.2: By 2030, achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all and end open defecation, paying special attention to the needs of women and girls and those in vulnerable situations.

In order to meet these targets, the World Bank estimates investments in infrastructure need to triple to US $114 billion per year, a figure which does not include operating and maintenance costs. And, here, the UK, on its own, declared over £50 billion on renewing is ‘Nuclear Deterrent’ programme! This is almost half of this: now add how many trillions of dollars are ‘wasted and burn into nothingness’ in these programmes by the world’s richest countries and you would know that not only capitalism is a monstrous killing machine but, at the same time, the ugliest of utter irrationality and paranoia! While all these millions of humans are dying away and all these hundreds of trillions of dollars are wasted and being burnt away into nothing by these countries and governments and they do because they can because we accept that. Reject it and no leaders and politicians dare wasting such insane amount of vital resource into these horrible things!

Safe water, sanitation and hygiene are, also, essential to SDG Three ‘Ensuring healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages. Under SDG target 03.3, countries are working to end the epidemics of major diseases, including, water-borne diseases. Under SDG 03.9, countries are working to substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination by 2030.  Additionally, safe water, sanitation and hygiene are needed to reduce maternal mortality and to end preventable deaths of new-borns and children as called for in SDG targets 03.1 and 03.2.

But what are all these SDGs unless world states and governments put their money where there mouths are. They are not putting that money there where it is most desperately needed but they have hundreds of trillions for the ‘bogey purpose’: the military, the nuclear and the rest: wars are ways as many others to keep on making money. This monstrosity goes on, this killing machine goes on and this brutal waste and burning of vital financial resources are wasted away every day and every year in this barbarity, called, capitalism. Time to challenge it and seek an infinitely better human affairs and economic management system, that supports, fosters and nurtures humanity across the earth.:::ω.

The Building-Block Foundational Human Rights: Without Establishing Foundational Human Rights Included in It a Universal Income for All Citizens Capitalism Can Not Go On the Way It Is: European Social Survey Finds Significant Public Support for Universal Basic Income

|| September 14: 2018 || ά. A new European Social Survey report has found significant public support in Europe for the introduction of universal basic income and a European Union-led social benefits scheme. Using European Social Survey data collected in 23 countries during 2016:17, the authors established that people in Europe widely endorse national government responsibility to protect vulnerable people. Whilst people are in favour of welfare support for the elderly, financial support for the unemployed and immigrants is met with more opposition by a considerable share of the population.

Is this ‘considerable opposition’ not related to the consideration that these have to do with ‘personal taxation’ so that the respondents respond from a ‘personal’ view-point. This is time to put forward the entirety of why capitalism has gone on for too long and has ‘created a shark-pool’ of the rich and riches while the vast chunk of societies are left with a horrible desperation and that does not mean just the unemployed and vulnerable people. It has been widely reported in the UK press that working people are queueing at foodbanks simply because in order to pay their rents and bills they have nothing else left to feed themselves. Foundational Human Rights is not ‘social security benefits’ nor are we speaking of ‘universal basic income’: we are speaking about foundational human rights and included in it is Universal Income, not as ‘benefit’ but as a share of the entire national wealth paid to all citizens of a nation.

And this Universal Income is not paid for any taxation or insurance contribution. How can that be done: humanics has answered these questions. It is time to wake up and see what capitalism has done to the desperately ‘sentenced’ people of Greece, the severest of cases while many European Union countries people are still paying for the crash and its aftermath. Capitalism can not be sustained as it is: people can not work and line the foodbank. People can not be part of any nation without a home and with access to education and much more besides. The old books are useless: it is time to create new ideas and bring capitalism to serve the people.

These are the Foundational Human Rights: A: Absolute Right to Live in Clean, Healthy, Safe and Natural Environment; B: Absolute Right to Breathe Natural, Fresh, Clean and Safe Air;  C: Absolute Right to Necessary Nutritional Balanced Food and Drink;  D: Absolute Right to Free Medical Care at the Point of Need;  E: Absolute Right to an Absolute Home;  F: Absolute Right to Free Degree-Level Education and Life Long Learning;  G: Absolute Right to Guaranteed Social Care;  H: Absolute Right to a Universal Income; I: Absolute Right to a Job;  J: Absolute Right to Dignified Civic and Human Funeral Paid Through by Universal Income. It is time that the world’s minds, who are concerned about the Human Condition look up and out into the world and the devastating human condition capitalism has created, particularly, after the crash and another crash will happen. It is time to challenge the status quo and think what is possible so that life is made better. It is time to challenge this view that in Europe life is all cosy and rosy! It is not: capitalism distributes poverty and inequality and keeps on increasing both so that it can gather vast chunks of the wealth to the tiny minority of the population.

The percentage of respondents, that support the introduction of a universal basic income scheme varies widely, from 33.9%, Norway to 80.4%, Lithuania. Support for a universal basic income is lower in more affluent countries in Northern and Western Europe and higher in the less wealthy welfare states in the East and South. Over 60% of respondents in Lithuania, Russia, Hungary, Israel, Slovenia and Portugal support the introduction of a universal basic income.

Lowest levels of support were found in Norway, Sweden and Switzerland. The report states: “This pattern suggests that basic income is welcomed as a way to improve social welfare rather than as a replacement for well-performing welfare systems.”

67.1% of those interviewed across Europe support the introduction of a EU-wide social benefit scheme, that would guarantee a minimum standard of living for the poor. But, on average, only three in ten Europeans, 30.5%, believe that more European Union involvement would lead to higher or much higher levels of social protection.

As with the introduction of basic income, support for EU involvement is higher amongst those in Eastern and Southern European countries, where welfare expenditure is relatively low. Over 80% of respondents in Portugal, Spain, Slovenia, Lithuania, Italy and Hungary support the introduction of a EU-wide social benefit scheme.

Only in Austria and The Netherlands was support for a EU-wide social benefit scheme below 50%.

Respondents were asked what should happen to someone’s unemployment benefit, if, they refuse to take a job, that pays less than what they earned previously. Over a quarter of respondents, 26.1%, felt that the full unemployment benefit should continue to be paid; 34.3% wanted to cut a small part of the benefit; 20.6% felt it should be cut in half and 19% felt it should be cut completely.

Support for cutting unemployment benefit in these circumstances is, particularly, high in Italy, Norway, Poland and Slovenia and comparatively low in Lithuania, Israel, Estonia and Russia. Italians are the most likely to want to limit unemployment benefit, if, someone refuses to take a job but think the government should take more financial responsibility for the unemployed.

The Polish do not expect high levels of unemployment benefit from their government and are most likely to support benefit reductions for those, who do not accept a job offer. The opposite is true of Israelis and Lithuanians, who believe the government should offer strong protection to the unemployed and tend to think that those, who turn down new work should not have their benefits cut.

The vast majority of people in Europe are open to allowing immigrants access to social benefits and services but with some conditions. The report’s authors found that fewer than 10% of respondents think that immigrants should never be allowed access to the welfare state, whilst only 09% believe that they should be granted full access to benefits and services immediately upon arrival.

43.1% of respondents think that social rights should be granted to immigrants following residence and payment of taxes for at least a year, with a further 29.1% thinking they should only be granted to citizens. When comparing responses to identical questions asked in Round Four, 2008:09 of the European Social Survey, the authors found no evidence that the refugee crisis led to more opposition to immigrants receiving social benefits:

“In Portugal and Spain, the percentage indicating that newcomers should receive social rights upon arrival has even increased substantially, from 09.6 to 20.3% in Portugal; from 11.7 to 18.9% in Spain.” Eastern Europeans are considerably more reluctant to provide social rights for immigrants despite relatively low immigration rates and lower levels of social security expenditure.

Support for the government to maintain acceptable living standards for the elderly is very high across Europe, especially, in areas where perceived living standards are currently lower. Public support for the government to provide for the elderly is highest in Israel, Iceland, Lithuania, Portugal, Russia and Spain.

In the Netherlands and Switzerland in particular, support for government responsibility is lower but, may, partl,  be attributed to the perception that the elderly have relatively higher living standards.

The European Social Survey is an academically led biennial cross-national social survey, that was created in 2001. It aims to chart change and stability in the social fabric of Europe. It was awarded European Research Infrastructure Consortium:ERIC status in 2013.

Round Eight of the European Social Survey was fielded in 23 countries during late 2016 and early 2017. The total sample size was 43,507 ranging from 880 respondents in Iceland to 2,852 respondents in Germany.

V PRAT Conference 2018 New York: October 26-27 Calls for Submissions: By September 05

 



|| August 18: 2018 || ά Mass incarceration in the United States has become a dehumanising force that is de-stroying the very fabric of society. Many young lives have wilted and many more are languishing in the penitentiaries for minor offenses and too often for no offense whatsoever. The racialisation of the criminal injustice system has resulted in the separation and impoverishment of families and the decimation of neighbourhoods.
In many communities one of the greatest barriers to a decent education is the de-praved influence of the prison-industrial complex. For human beings to flourish, it is essential that they receive a “universal” form of education capable of nurturing the emotional, psychological, physical and intellectual growth of the whole person. To bring about a humane society, we need to change the trajectory currently leading to mass incarceration, redirecting it toward universal education and potentially recast-ing the social, political, and economic structures of the country. For such transform-ative education to take hold, we must eliminate pedagogies of oppression and repres-sion and free intellectual inquiry from established forms of monopoly control.
Consequently, at the conference we will seek to move beyond policies to effective practice, by exploring such difficult questions as the following:

:Can universal education unlock an entrenched system of unjust laws?
:Can uni-versal education serve as an essential instrument both in reversing criminalization of the poor and in eradicating the prison-industrial complex?
:Can education be emancipated from cultural imperialism?
:Can effective resistance be mobilised against harmful institutional models, such as zero tolerance policies and high-stakes testing requirements?
:Are we suffering from a poverty of imagination among many educational “reform-ers?”
:Can awareness of available “best practices” encourage more innovative thinking?
:To what extent can socio-economic relationships, political systems and cultural productions be redirected toward empathy, community, cooperation, and human dignity?
:Can we truly succeed in building a just and humane society?

If, you plan to present, please, send a title and a brief abstract to: J. Everet Green at everet at verizon.net by September 05: 2018.

Conference Venues: Friday, October 26, 10:00 am to 18:00: Graduate Centre of the City University of New York. 365 Fifth Avenue.

The Non-Americans in America: Six Million is As Large a Number As to Be Equivalent of Many Nations in This World: America Can Not Punish Them with Political Annihilation: This Must Change for the Sake of America Itself

 

 

 

|| August 03: 2018 || ά. The Truth Out has published a new piece of research, written by Ms Kimberly R Kras, who is an Assistant Professor of Criminology and Justice Studies at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, today. This piece, ‘Citizenship Through the Eyes of Those Who Have Lost the Right to Vote’ is a timely and much needed piece of work to put to America and the American people, to bring about a debate for it is about the ‘political annihilation’ of a section of the ‘we the people’ of America, the number of which is unbelievably high: in this piece Ms Kras has put forward a figure, six million Americans can not vote in any American democratic exercise because they have been convicted of a felony.

And this scenario varies from state to state but in many states these people, despite the fact that they have served their time and ‘paid’ for the felony for which they were convicted and, yet, they can not vote. It is, as, if, they had been given two parallel sentences: one with finite end date and the other one ‘in perpetuam’, that it does not get spent! This is astonishing. Ms Kras reported some progressive actions taken by some states to balance this injustice out and corrected the state laws but this is not enough. What kind of a democracy is it where six million people are barred from taking part in exercising their citizenship rights? Further, whatever crime any criminal of whatever sorts commits, they can not and do not and must not lose their citizenships for, if, they were to lose their citizenship by virtue of that loss the ‘state’ loses any ‘right’ to accuse, charge and try them in its ow court of law because the ‘criminal’ is no longer its citizen. The state can only try its own citizens!

Further, citizenship of any state is not a ‘gift’ or ‘privilege’ nor ‘honour’ or ‘accolade’ given to individuals; it is people’s right by ‘defined virtues’ by the ‘book of the law’ or a Constitution of a country in which it is enshrined as a right of citizens and there are defined ways of getting that citizenship, including, often, simply, being born in that country or to parents, who are already citizens of that country. Therefore, because it is a right and as such so long a constitution remains valid, so long this state remains a member of the international body, i.e, the United Nations and all its mechanism, this state, simply, can not withdraw citizenship. It is against international law for a state to ‘revoke’ or take away people’s citizenship. It is not a matter of people’s opinion nor is it a matter of whether a majority wants it or not: there is such a thing as the law and this is the law: a state can not take away citizenships from its own citizens.

Furthermore, the criminals are still citizens and they were charged and tried and punished for their crimes and they are sent to prison and they serve their term. The incarceration, the taking away of one’s liberty and all forms of, other than the very bare physiological level, of life from the criminals is the highest form of ‘punishment’ for their crimes, which they serve. If, this includes, that they can not vote while serving the sentences, the state has some reasons to offer some form of an argument in relation to that but it can not sustain a sentence with reason and rational validity of taking away people’s rights to take part in the democratic process for the rest of their lives!

It is desperately sad and dangerous for a democracy to ignore and not to seek to rectify it, particularly, as Ms Kras’ research points out that the majority of these six million are poor and people of various ethnicities other than white. These two criteria: that they all are poor and that they are coming from all ethnic minorities, might, give us the idea as to how this has gone on for so long! But it can not go on any longer and we urge all progressive forces, voices and agencies to bring this issue to the forefront of the political debates and discourse. We suggest that the leaders in all spheres of societies across America in all its states form some form of a ‘State Law Review Convention’ of some sorts, this is unheard of but possible and all state legislatures work together under this convention mechanism and identify the variations in laws relating this ‘political annihilation’ of six million people’ in all the states and agree a ‘common course of corrective actions’, which, they, then, take to their local chambers and change their laws or send it up with a common resolution by all state legislatures to the Congress to Pass a Common Law, that will be applied to all states.

This can not go on as this: a nation can not defend ‘politically killing off’ six million of its own people from the national life. This is a bankrupt approach and it can not be accepted and acceptable. Democracy, if, it is, at all, about the ‘government of the people, by the people for the people’ then these ‘people’ are and can not but be deemed as humans, to mean that they are not all 100% ‘angels and angelic and all-perfect and all unfailingly uniformed. In this some of these people for vary many reasons, factors and influences will be failed and they themselves, may, fail themselves but for that they will ‘pay’ but that does not mean that that should declare them ‘politically dead’ forever.

This can not be supported or sustained. America must rise to challenge and change this utter and sheer injustice since by its actions of the current law, America has, effectively, declared six million people as, first, not part of ‘we the people’, because they are not, because they can not vote and, second, that they are not human in the sense that they should have been perfect but since they were not they no longer have the means to correct themselves and seek to make amend and rebuilt a new life, even, after they have served their times for what they did! In the first lesson on the American Constitution, this would tell a child that this is against the first sentence of the American Constitution: We the people for, effectively, these six million souls are not part of that ‘we the people’. If, American establishment fails in this it is the American people, who can not and must not fail in rectifying this injustice. We thank The Truth Out and Ms Kras for this work and, along with it, invite every single person reading this, to do all they can to support this brave and committed publication for these are the true champions of the people, who tirelessly bring to the surface, what no one would speak of, yet, these are vitally fundamental issues of society and the humanity, that lives in any society.

Regine Humanics Foundation Begins Its Journey Today: The Humanion Is Now A Regine Humanics Foundation Publication

 
 
 

 


|| April 06: 2018 || ά. The Humanion was first published on September 24, 2015 and has been run, since that day, on a complete voluntary basis without any 'formal' or 'constituted' manner or form and, it was run on as a Human Enterprise, which is an idea of Humanics, in which, ownership is replaced by belongingship and, thus, in a Humanical Society, no one owns anything but everyone belongs to the whole as the whole belongs to everyone lawfully and equally and, it neither believes in nor makes money but human utilities, needs, aspirations, creativity, imagination and dreams are served without money, where everyone works and creates for all others as all others create and work for all others, thus, bringing in meaning and purpose to life along with it come natural justice, equality and liberty, that establish a true civilisation within the Rule of Law. And in one word, this system of human affairs management is called, Humanics and a society that runs itself in humanics is called a humanical society. Today, we have begun the process of 'constituting' this Human Enterprise, which does not exist in the current system, but the next closest thing to it, that exists in the UK Law is Social Enterprise. Therefore, today, Friday, April 06, 2018, we are beginning Regine Humanics Foundation, that is the 'Agency', that will lead, run, manage and develop everything, that The Humanion has been trying to do.

Regine Humanics Foundation is established by the Thinker, Author, Poet, Novelist, Playwright, Editor of The Humanion, Festival Director of London Poetry Festival and a Humanicsxian: hu: maa: neek: tian: One, that believes in, lives and exists by Humanics, Mr Munayem Mayenin, of London, England, United Kingdom. Mr Mayenin says, ''Humanics is a vision; people, may, call it, utopia, we, call it our Humanicsovicsopia; Humanics. Humanics is our philosophy, our faith, our conviction, our resolution, our way of existing, thinking, being and doing: to seek and try to do so in the determination that all we must do and be is to exist to advance the human condition. People, readers and agencies and organisations, from all across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the whole of the United Kingdom and Australasia, Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, from all walks and strata of life, have supported our endeavours, supported The Humanion and The Humanion Team, who volunteered their time to run things, since the beginning of The Humanion and long before that, when other things, that are now part of The Foundation, were developing. Nothing has changed in terms of the nature and value of what we have been seeking to do.''

''But the founding of The Foundation brings it all in a solid foundation so that we can keep on building this 'vision' so that it keeps on going regardless of who come to take the vision-mission of The Foundation forward. The Foundation runs along with time and along with the flowing humanity. This is the dream, this is the vision, this the hope in founding this Foundation. And, in this, we hope and invite all our readers, supporters, well wishers and all agencies and organisations to support our endeavours to build something, a Human Enterprise, which we are in the process of registering as a Social Enterprise, as a Community Interest Company, working for the common good of the one and common humanity. No one makes or takes profit out of The Foundation, which now runs The Humanion and everything else, that is part of it. The Foundation, once registered, will have an Asset Lock, which means that in any event, should The Foundation dissolve itself, all its existing assets shall go to a similar Social Enterprise. Therefore, we invite everyone to support The Foundation, support The Humanion in whatever way they can. And, there are endless number of ways people and organisations can support The Foundation and The Humanion.'' ::: ω.

To Seek: To Do: To Change: To Make Better: A Courtney Anderson an Assistant Professor of Law: Atlanta Listen When A Voice Calls You Towards the Light of Equity: Where the Major Part of the Whole Bleeds Away There Can Be No Dream But Nightmare: Rise Towards the American Dream Away From the American Nightmare of Rampant Poverty Inequality and Contemptuous Disregard to Human Misery and Suffering Imposed on a Great Majority of People

 

|| November 25: 2017: Georgia State University News || ά. Assistant Professor Courtney Anderson champions housing issues to break cycle of poverty. Community can be a matter of life and death. South Seattle knows this hard fact. Residents there rise each morning in a grinding urban neighbourhood with high unemployment and substandard housing. Just one mile distant, over a body of water, that, might, as well, be an ocean, lies Mercer Island, one of the 100 wealthiest ZIP codes in the United States. A baby born today on Mercer Island can expect to live 10 years longer than a baby born in South Seattle.

Life expectancy isn’t the only discrepancy between wealthy communities and poor ones. Low-income areas typically see higher rates of crime, disease, mental illness and drug addiction. That’s true in Seattle. It’s true in Los Angeles, Detroit, Baltimore, Miami. It’s true in Atlanta. In South Atlanta, Thomasville Heights Elementary School and its surrounding neighbourhood share a ZIP code with a federal penitentiary. There’s no building boom in this blighted section of one of America’s fastest-growing cities. In fact, substandard housing across the street from 600-student Thomasville Heights is considered the leading cause of a shocking year-over-year turnover rate in classrooms there.

From one year to the next, 40 percent of the students at Thomasville Heights go away. Some families leave the housing complex after complaining of intolerable conditions, structural damage, dilapidation, infestations of snakes, rodents, insects. Others, who can’t find the means to pay rent move on because of eviction notices. What happens to kids in this unstable circumstance? And their community in the long run? Georgia State Law Assistant Professor Courtney Anderson has done her homework. “The concentration of housing for low-income families in impoverished neighbourhoods adversely affects educational attainment.” Ms Anderson said. “Ultimately, this, also, impacts the opportunity for poor children to break the cycle of poverty as adults.”

Substandard housing affects more than grades and graduations. People in shoddy dwellings more often suffer respiratory and cardiovascular troubles from smoke and indoor air pollution. They’re frequently exposed to high and low temperatures. Home injuries occur more often, floors or steps give way, roofs collapse, wiring shorts out. Sanitation problems can spread communicable diseases. More frequent diagnoses of allergies, asthma and mould-borne ailments add to woes.

Unravelling the knotted problems of housing, education and health takes a champion, someone willing to build awareness about problems in communities that often have no voice. Anderson has made it her cause.

Ms Anderson first grasped the link between housing and community health issues, when she served as a clinical fellow at Georgetown University Law Centre in 2012. “We worked very closely with low-income tenant organisations, who were attempting to purchase their buildings.” she said. “The need for health services, education and other social services was always prevalent.” Ms Anderson quickly realised that the needs of these clients stretched far beyond memos on legal letterhead or simple words of legal advice. That revelation shaped her teaching and research.

“We were our clients’ only advocates.” she said. “They told us how hard it was for them to access social services and education because of where they lived. We realised how many ancillary issues stemmed from the disparities in their communities … and we were the only ones, who could help.” Connecting the community dots, Ms Anderson began to actively research housing instability in low-income neighbourhoods.

“I work with sociologists, attorneys, educators and bankers to create a map of neighbourhood stressors near schools with high turnover rates.” she said. “Once we have that, we can better understand how educational attainment is disrupted by evictions, building code violations and mobility.”

Ms Anderson has published several notable papers exploring how events or conditions, that touch any part of housing, education or health in underserved neighbourhoods have a ripple effect in the other areas. Her titles describe the work: 'The Disparate Impact of Shuttered Schools' in the Journal of Gender, Social Policy and the Law in 2015, 'Affirmative Action for Affordable Housing' in Howard Law Journal in 2016, 'You Cannot Afford to Live Here' in Fordham Urban Law Journal this year.

Perhaps, most importantly, of all, Ms Anderson ventures out from the ivory tower of academia to hit the streets and she rides along with a posse. “Her students are challenged to understand, form an opinion and make an impact to curb health disparities and her work is shedding light on some of the health and housing disparities in Georgia.” said Ms Genevieve Razick. Each year loads her Law and Health Equity class onto a bus and tools them up Peachtree Road and through ritzy Buckhead.

The students admire Buckhead’s fine houses and jewelled lawns and glittering automobiles. Then, in jarring contrast, the student bus veers southward into grindingly poor Atlanta neighbourhoods. The houses there have shuttered windows and trash-strewn lawns and abandoned cars.

“It really opens the students’ eyes to a part of Atlanta they have never seen, despite the fact that it is five minutes away from the law school.” Ms Anderson said. “We go from wealthy neighbourhoods in North Atlanta to abject poverty that is not far from where they live and learn. The purpose is to give our law students context for how segregated cities can be and how 
human-made factors influence and cause this segregation.”

Newly enlightened, Ms Anderson’s students then are urged to bring their budding legal skills to bear in service to the challenged communities they’ve seen. Like many Georgia State Law students, a large number of these future lawyers have Atlanta roots or close community ties. It’s not uncommon for them to suddenly develop a passion for community efforts driven by various non-profits.

“The Atlanta Volunteers Lawyer Foundation, Sister Love and New Georgia Project have been great at identifying and assisting with the variety of issues, that affect low-income populations.” Ms Anderson said. “Our students offer hands-on, real-world help.”

Ms Genevieve Razick took Ms Anderson’s classes in Property Law, Law and Health Equity and Law and Social Welfare. Ms Razick now practices as an associate attorney at Arnall Golden Gregory, where she focuses on regulatory and transactional work for health care clients. “Professor Anderson is truly passionate about bringing topics covered in class to life for her students so they aren’t just reading another chapter in a textbook.” Ms Razick said.

“Her students are challenged to understand, form an opinion and make an impact to curb health disparities and her work is shedding light on some of the health and housing disparities in Georgia.” During her semester in Anderson’s Law and Health Equity class, Ms Razick supported Sister Love Inc, an organisation serving to eradicate the disproportionate impact of HIV and sexual oppression on women in the United States.

“My Georgia State team helped Sister Love conduct legal research on the frameworks surrounding sexual reproductive education in schools in Georgia.” Ms Razick said. “We looked at how access to sexual reproductive education could potentially impact the prevalence of HIV in a community.”

Ms Anderson’s students lend their legal expertise to other allies, too. Some support the work of Neighbourhood Planning Units, citizen advisory councils that research and develop zoning, land use and other planning recommendations designed to address health disparities and inequalities. Their recommendations go directly to Atlanta’s Mayor and City Council.

Other students have pitched in with the Atlanta Youth Count and Needs Assessment, a comprehensive survey of youth homelessness in the city. One of Ms Anderson’s students worked with Westside Atlanta Land Trust. That pairing resulted in a program proposal to train ex-criminal offenders in construction trades, that can help them land jobs renovating blighted homes in a depressed area at Vine City:English Avenue. Breakthrough thinking is badly needed in that area.

Mr Paul Bolster feels that efforts to cut through a Gordian Knot of problems to find solutions in housing, health and education policy depend on leadership, the path-breaking research and advocacy like Ms Anderson’s, but, also, political and legal leadership. “I believe it takes legislative or executive department leadership to give a focus to citizen advocacy.” Mr Bolster said.

“For any public policy change, there needs to be a legislative leader to make decisions and create partnerships, that will lead to legislation. The courts can provide a context for the legislation and often political cover for taking actions that may not be popular or may get lost in the din of public discussion. Leadership can make an issue a priority for research, public debate and ultimately legislative action.”

Mr Bolster does his part. He founded and serves as principle consultant for Support Housing LLC, an organisation assisting communities with plans to end homelessness. He co-develops supportive housing with service providers and organizes advocacy efforts focused on state and local policy issues. He founded the Georgia Supportive Housing Association, where he is its former executive director.

“Her research is important.” he said. “Connecting housing to health and education is critical to public investment in the housing.” Ms Anderson’s leadership in housing and health policy could possibly lead to big changes at Thomasville Heights Elementary School. In the past two years, students in her Property Law classes worked with Purpose Built Schools to explore the underlying causes of churn problems at the educational institution.

Students pulled eviction records and documentation on housing conditions. They cross-referenced demographics to identify and map the issues, that impact Thomasville students’ ability to attend school. Now, late this fall, Purpose Built Schools will hold a meeting to evaluate student recommendations based on that research and, possibly, adopt those ideas in coming years.

Quality housing and reduced student turnover in the neighbourhood that Thomasville Heights’ student body calls home could arrest the cycle of poverty in the area. In other words, two components of a true community, a stable, liveable home and a classroom, where familiar teachers and classmates show up reliably and faithfully, could, potentially, anchor the area and give it a chance at normal development. “Leadership can make an issue a priority for research, public debate and ultimately legislative action.” said Mr Paul Bolster.

A true sense of community remains a dream deferred, Ms Anderson feels, without secure, protective, sheltering places to live, schools to spark ideas and health to support hope. “We are far from the goal.” she said. “But awareness that there are these issues has definitely improved and there has been more of an interdisciplinary approach to addressing them. Housing agencies are now opining on education policies and vice versa.

Improving health equity will come with improving race relations and improvements in economic inequality.” she added. “I think the focus right now still needs to be on awareness and education, with local groups taking the lead on testing possible solutions that can be replicated so that there can be more buy-in when they are proven effective.”

|| April 06: 2018 || ά. The Humanion was first published on September 24, 2015 and has been run, since that day, on a complete voluntary basis without any 'formal' or 'constituted' manner or form and, it was run on as a Human Enterprise, which is an idea of Humanics, in which, ownership is replaced by belongingship and, thus, in a Humanical Society, no one owns anything but everyone belongs to the whole as the whole belongs to everyone lawfully and equally and, it neither believes in nor makes money but human utilities, needs, aspirations, creativity, imagination and dreams are served without money, where everyone works and creates for all others as all others create and work for all others, thus, bringing in meaning and purpose to life along with it come natural justice, equality and liberty, that establish a true civilisation within the Rule of Law. And in one word, this system of human affairs management is called, Humanics and a society that runs itself in humanics is called a humanical society. Today, we have begun the process of 'constituting' this Human Enterprise, which does not exist in the current system, but the next closest thing to it, that exists in the UK Law is Social Enterprise. Therefore, today, Friday, April 06, 2018, we are beginning Regine Humanics Foundation, that is the 'Agency', that will lead, run, manage and develop everything, that The Humanion has been trying to do.

Regine Humanics Foundation is established by the Thinker, Author, Poet, Novelist, Playwright, Editor of The Humanion, Festival Director of London Poetry Festival and a Humanicsxian: hu: maa: neek: tian: One, that believes in, lives and exists by Humanics, Mr Munayem Mayenin, of London, England, United Kingdom. Mr Mayenin says, ''Humanics is a vision; people, may, call it, utopia, we, call it our Humanicsovicsopia; Humanics. Humanics is our philosophy, our faith, our conviction, our resolution, our way of existing, thinking, being and doing: to seek and try to do so in the determination that all we must do and be is to exist to advance the human condition. People, readers and agencies and organisations, from all across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the whole of the United Kingdom and Australasia, Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, from all walks and strata of life, have supported our endeavours, supported The Humanion and The Humanion Team, who volunteered their time to run things, since the beginning of The Humanion and long before that, when other things, that are now part of The Foundation, were developing. Nothing has changed in terms of the nature and value of what we have been seeking to do.''

''But the founding of The Foundation brings it all in a solid foundation so that we can keep on building this 'vision' so that it keeps on going regardless of who come to take the vision-mission of The Foundation forward. The Foundation runs along with time and along with the flowing humanity. This is the dream, this is the vision, this the hope in founding this Foundation. And, in this, we hope and invite all our readers, supporters, well wishers and all agencies and organisations to support our endeavours to build something, a Human Enterprise, which we are in the process of registering as a Social Enterprise, as a Community Interest Company, working for the common good of the one and common humanity. No one makes or takes profit out of The Foundation, which now runs The Humanion and everything else, that is part of it. The Foundation, once registered, will have an Asset Lock, which means that in any event, should The Foundation dissolve itself, all its existing assets shall go to a similar Social Enterprise. Therefore, we invite everyone to support The Foundation, support The Humanion in whatever way they can. And, there are endless number of ways people and organisations can support The Foundation and The Humanion.'' ::: ω.
