After being rated #46 on a national corruption risk report card, Maine passes a bill a to improve transparency through financial disclosure but it sorely misses the mark- doing nothing to improve public access to government operations.

Preserving The American Political Philosophy: The Chained Consumer Price Index

I am posting this link again since is generally going unnoticed.You may have heard of a global plan, to which some credit President Obama as being a true believer, that the United States should have it's standard of living lowered to make the global distribution of wealth fairer The way I am reading it, being a mere layman, is that the substitute of the Consumer Price Index for the Chained Consumer Price Index, by governments in the United States, is being billed as a more accurate way of measuring the cost of living. However the Consumer Price Index, as I understand it, measured not the cost of living, but the cost of goods and services. The Chained Consumer Price Index measures the cos t of living, factoring in a general downward shift in the STANDARD of living as consumers adjust to a rising cost of goods reflected in the shrinking dollar caused by inflation, caused by worthless money being dumped on our system. The Chained Consumer Price index no longer measures the cost of

The Maine Department of Economic And Community Development throws a bone to teh micro-economy but it lands in non-profit Territory. This taxpayer funded bureaucracy excludes the entire retail sector from benefits ( redistributed wealth) and services that it provides and in so doing excludes a major chunk of Main Street.

Maine Taxpayer Funded High Growth Capitalism- A Letter to The Editor of The Boothbay Register

SUBMITTED AS LETTER TO THE EDITOR OF THE BOOTHBAY REGISTER

Dear Senator Trahan and Representative Bruce McDonald,


I wrote to you couple of days ago about The Small Business Growth Fund.

This fund was created in 1995 and appears to be a state government investment in private entreprership for high growth companies doing "public good" (which raises the question who decides what is for the "public good"-does the taxpayer have a voice in this or just the fund managers ?)

I asked what does the taxpayer get out of it? I would think that if tax-payers have invested in a private investment company that this information would be readily available and assessable to the general public but I cannot find it.

I would assume that if every dollar the taxpayer puts in is matched by nine dollars of private investment, that the taxpayer is a 10% shareholder in the company- But as I have never seen this stated, it remains only an assumption.

On the basis of that assumption, it leads to the question- Why is our state government in so much debt? I saw pitches at the Juice Conference that speculated profits in the billions. If this is the sort of "high growth" that SBGF invests in, then, why haven't the taxpayers, like the good citizens of Alaska, under the governorship of Sarah Palin, received dividends in the mail?

Is it because of the even higher costs of our state entitlement programs?

Entitlements help, especially when people do not have jobs- but even slaves have entitlements. Entitlements are an investment that slave owners have to make to maintain their assets.

Where are the "opportunity" programs for the small scale and modest growth sector of the micro-economy- which is clearly excluded from investment by the taxpayer- funded Small Business Growth Fund?

We need a new category for the small business sector that is not classifiable as "high -growth" capitalism or non-profit organizations. This is truly the private sector micro-economy- those small businesses on "Main Street", that we heard so much about when our Federal government was selling TARP to the public. We haven't heard anything about Main Street since then but the credit freeze is still alive and well on Main Street whose primary source of capital investment is self-generated profit, which ,with many small businesses filing as S-corporations,(profit reported on individual returns) will be taxed heavily if self-generated profit exceeds $250,000.00. Then the private citizen will be taxed to an increased degree in order to fund our ever expanding federal government and to pay the interest on our federal government's rapidly escalating debt.

Where are the "opportunity programs" for the people? The United States is transforming from the land of opportunity into the land of entitlements. If there was a growth in opportunity, there would not be such a large need for entitlements. When the House was first formulating the "Stimulus Bill" they called the small business sector " the engine of new job creation" and then allocated 200 billion dollars for food stamps and $450 million for loans for small businesses, which includes the "high growth" businesses that are exclusively favored by Maine's Small Business Growth Fund. Add to that continual extensions in unemployment and a federal administration that only recently got the idea that maybe it should focus on job creation- this after months of promoting the citizens of this country to "volunteer" service. Once the citizenry is programmed to accept that they MUST volunteer service, the dots can be connected between receiving entitlements and "mandatory" volunteer service- and there you have it- the people of the United States squarely become the slaves of concentrated power and wealth.

The Small Business Growth Fund was created by our state legislature in 1995. Times have changed. Where is the Small Business growth fund for small scale and modest growth companies, which are the foundational basis of a flourishing middle class? My family business was started in 1952 with the philosophy of creating a hand made product affordable to the middle class. In those days the middle class was flourishing and the distribution of wealth took the form of a bell curve, with the greatest amount of wealth distributed among the greatest number of people.

Both sides of the political divide agree that we need to move back to a more equitable distribution of wealth- but all the solutions for doing so are targeted at funding and stimulating growth at the top. This is not working! When is someone in government going to get the revolutionary idea of stimulating growth at the bottom to middle sector of the economy? Where is the Main Street Economy Growth Fund? It is in our self-generated profits, capped at $250,000.00 before being heavily taxed to fund the hegemony of concentrated power and wealth that is the new face of government.

Sincerely,
Mackenzie Andersen
East Boothbay, Maine

Is this a time when there is advantage in slow growth investments?

As a small manufacturing business, we are facing an unknown future in which one of the possible outcomes is that congress will impose so many taxes, mandates expenditures and regulations that would negate available spending power of most Americans to barely cover the essentials, even as our representatives pass energy legislation that will skyrocket the costs of everyone’s electricity. Then we would have no choice but to move our production overseas, provided we can find a route to doing that.


But I am also wondering what the “high growth” entrepreneurial investors are thinking- Aren’t they also faced with having the chunks of their profits extracted to fund a rapidly expanding federal government, complete with jails to house the offending citizens who do not comply with government –mandated expenditures?

In light of the darkest potential legislation becoming a manifest reality, why isn’t there a movement to slow growth investment? - This in the hopes that the current powers that be will be eventually replaced with more business friendly powers?

A slow growth business can remain below the proposed target for tax increases on profits and defer higher growth for later years when profits are not increasingly extracted to finance an expanding federal government.

Even as Andersen Design considers the option of moving our medium priced production overseas- we hope to maintain a high end, one of a kind production studios in the United States, which might survive as a slow- growth- under- the radar enterprise until the United States finds it’s way back to it’s constitutional roots. Then- it can be poised to grow at any pace.

Just a thought from outside of the “creative economy”. We need a genuine outsiders movement- even the Tea Party movement is indifferent.

A Vision and A Process

A lot has happened since I last posted and it begins back in the 1980’s when Joe Randall worked for our production studio in Portland, Maine. It was there that Joe was introduced to the fascinating process of production ceramics, the same process that my father was introduced to by the illustrious Eva Zeisel, when he studied industrial design at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, before and after World War II.

Joe was so inspired by the production process that he went on to study ceramics at Alfred University. He has since been involved in the ceramic business but we had lost contact with him.

My sister Elise volunteers her “service’ to the local land trust- (Yes – this is even before being promoted by our presidential family to do so). Elise helps to organize the Boothbay Region Boat Festival, which takes place at the shipyards around the bend from us in August. Last August I saw a slip-cast ceramic whale by a young artist, both different and similar to our work, similar enough so to say that the influence is there. I asked my sister about the work and she told me than she had put the young designer in contact with Joe.

When I saw the competition for a small business grant that the Juice Conference is offering, I formulated an idea for the grant and wrote to Joe for an estimate on doing molds. A few years back, Joe had done a block mold for us when we had a large order of baby penguins for the Smithsonian catalog.

After I had composed my introduction and contacted Joe, I learned that the grant process was an America Idol style oral run-off- and so did not pursue it, but none the less a process had been set in motion, merging with the larger process that began in the 1940’s when Eva Zeisel taught her land mark class in slip-cast ceramic production and a young man by the name of Weston Neil Andersen was a student.

When I called Joe I asked to have the block mold for the baby penguin, which I had never seen. The block mold makes the production of production molds very easy. I am interested in having block molds made of all our small sculptures, which was the basis of the grant proposal. Joe was planning a trip our way and said that he would stop by and deliver the block mold.

Last night Joe stopped by and we had a most interesting and inspiring meeting. It seems that Elise’s introduction of the young designer had set yet another stage of this decades long process in motion. Joe’s is a man fascinated by the mold making process and the design and management of a ceramic production shop. He does not want to do the actual production work but to be involved as a manager who oversees the process on a weekly basis. He has a colleague in New Hampshire who wants to set up a production shop and is ready to go but it hinges on the young designer, who wants only to design and market. The designer is going to the Atlanta and Rosen Shows with his own work and hoping to bring back enough orders to justify the financing of the project. Joe has another long-time associate who is their financing specialist.

Meanwhile, we have been side tracked this year with large projects not specifically related to our field. This has competed with our time and energy for focusing on sales- but the opportunities have been knocking on our door unsolicited. We are currently in the preliminary negotiation phase with three different enterprises that promise to yield quantity orders. We are also experiencing calls from former retailers with whom we had lost contact. The classical success of our line is a draw in these difficult times. Our line has retained its marketability for over half a century through out many fluctuations of the economy.

I was amazed to be sitting in the room listening to someone else as inspired and focused on the entire process – from design- to production – to sales and financing of a ceramic production enterprise. As I have written in my VISION statement, this enterprise hinges on love of the work and appreciation of the life style, and Joe clearly has that love and understanding. He was speaking about associates with whom he had a substantial history of dealings. We, ourselves, are a part of that chain of connections. Here I was listening to someone describe the emerging manifestation of the concepts expressed in my VISION statement, written a number of years ago. - And we are the link that can make the collaboration whole- not only because we can supplement orders should the young designer fall short of his goal and add to orders if he doesn’t- but because we have been involved in every aspect of the process for years-and we would like to have more time to focus on design, ceramic art and marketing – which is complementary to the project that is currently formulating.

It is formulating during a time when congress is discussing bills that may drastically alter the way business is to be done. If worse comes to worse and bills are passed that cripple the American economy with the highest taxes we have ever seen while simultaneously skyrocketing the cost of energy for every American -there is a back up plan. We would then look for a different nation in which to produce our medium priced line, while focusing on an upper end Art line here. Joe has experience dealing with overseas productions. Andersen Design has been recognized for art and design through our history and so we are poised to make this kind of transition. If best comes to best and taxes are left alone or even reduced and the Cap N Tax is defeated we can do both a medium priced line and develop a higher priced line in this country.

Andersen Design will be finishing the bisque ware in our own studio- at least initially. Our glazes are all of our own invention and are part of what distinguishes our work, only one other company has ever produced a line with our glazes and that is because a former employee stole the recipes from us. That company has since gone out of business. We also love the process and look forward to an opportunity to devote more of our own time and energy to that process. We expect to be developing more one of a kind work, which complements production work and often generates ideas for more production pieces.

In order to make this really work, we need to build a new ceramic finishing production here. This will provide interesting Maine Jobs- while the bisque ware production will provide interesting New Hampshire jobs. We will need to find financing for the new facility and possibly other costs.

Green Energy Grants tied to Small Business Survival?

Since there are grants available for green energy entrepreneurs, and since businesses such as our own face the possibility that if the Cap and Tax Bill passes that it will become too expensive to continue to produce our line in America- which has been our committment since 1952, when our company was established with the philosophy of creating a hand made product affordable for the middle classes - I am wondering if there is a way for the recipient of green energy "stimulus" grants to develop energy saving windmill technology at a drastically reduced cost for busnesses threatened by what is reported to be a 40% hike in the cost of energy - or in Obama's own words Cap N Tax will "necessarily skyrocket everybodies energy consumption"



We would also like to develop an plan for transforming our family business into a private economy business that we can leave to the benefit of future generations- and since such a plan would involve creating new production spaces, it could be designed as an energy efficient, environmentally controlled building. I do not know how any manufacturing can survive in the country if energy costs go up 40 percent unless they have access to an inexpensive form of energy such as windmill technology is reported to be.

Slip-cast production provides for meaningful and satisfying work. Our best employees have always come from the deeply rooted Maine community. Meaningful work is important to well being. It took years of difficult struggle to get our business off the ground through bootstrap capitalization. It would be a shame to see it lost forever.

But these days with Obama targeting those making over 250 thousand dollars for escalated extraction of funds to finance a rapidly increasing federally controlled government, even boot-strap capitalization is being threatened. Small businesses that file as s-corporations report business profits on a personal return. The profits reported on personal returns are used for both personal expenditures and re-invested into the business as "boot-strap capitalization”. The more the government extracts to fill its own pockets, the less there is available for the bootstrap capitalization of the small business economy

The upside – maybe this is a good time for investing in slow growth businesses, that might see a escalation in profitability in the future, when we may have a more private economy friendly administration.

A Modern Day Civil Revolution n the USA

There is a Modern Day Revolution taking place in America, which comes as close to being a civil war as we have seen in our lifetimes. On the one hand we have a vast network of radical “community organizer”, who, as it is gradually being revealed, are responsible For writing the legislation that Congress has been, until now, passing without reading. One of the groups that is largely credited with writing legislation is The Apollo Alliance - a project of the Tides Center, a Tax Exempt 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization. Non-profit growth in this country first began escalating in the 1960’s. Like many small businesses non-profits are S-Corporations whose income is re-invested in the organization- but under the new tax structure small business income is capped at 250,000.000, when the tax increases needed to fund the growing fusion of government, nonprofits, large industry, unions, and large banking interested is extracted from the small business community, which is largely left to fund itself through boot-strap economics. The small business sector is highly individualistic and outside of the centralized fusion of power and money that their self-generated small business profits is needed to fund.

While the radical left has a highly developed community organizer network- now in charge of writing legislation which Americans have elected our representatives to write- the opposition has talk radio and cable news, of which, continued existence is threatened by the legislation that is attempted to be enacted through Congress. We have Fox news they have Apollo Alliance and the president is sending the message to the American public not to listen to cable news, which is likely factoring in to the steadily growing audience of Fox News.

Thoughts on Continuing The Art Of Handcrafted Productions

I am pondering whether to continue my meetup group- The Art Of Hand Crafted Productions. It has attracted no followers and my six-month contract will soon need renewal. On the plus side, there is a benefit to developing one’s own views by writing them down. The non-linear format of the Meetup forum is more dynamic than that of a blog. And then maybe I am just ahead of the curve- Maybe if I keep on keeping on, the curve will escalate as the public begins to understand the importance of small business and that the only real way to repair the economy is through real productivity. Andersen Design have always been committed to remaining an American –made craft - but programs that are discussed by Congress, may place that dream beyond realistic expectations.

Constitutional Watchdog

I was watching Glenn Beck with half an eye and working on my computer with the other when I heard Glenn talking about a new function on his website called Constitutional Watchdog.

If you are concerned about the rapid transformation of this once free union of states into a land controlled by one huge federal bureaucratic oligarchy, then Glenn is asking you to operate as a roving private sector investigator. Beck suggests selecting a specific focus for your investigation and requests that you report on your findings to GB headquarters, Constitutional Watchdog.

As those who follow Beck know, Glenn’s show is an ongoing narrative about the transformation currently undergoing in The United States and around the globe. Beck believes that our community organizer-president is constructing an alternate government network while simultaneously instituting programs that will undermine the constitution of the United States and weaken us a nation. As I write, the words strike me like an extremist point of view, and yet, everywhere I go people are concurring to a surprising degree in a state that voted for Obama in the national election. People are waking up at last to what lies beneath the smooth persona that Americans elected to the presidency of this great nation.

My area of choice is online agreements, which also happened to be the topic of the day, sent to Beck via a citizen alert. The online agreement discussed by Beck is found at Cars.org as part of the Cash for Clunkers campaign run by the federal government. Beck strongly advises against logging on to Cars.org since the online agreement states that while logged on the visiting computer becomes government property. Potentially this allows the government access all the files on one’s computer. One might ask why does the government own my computer because I access a government site- but as far as I know, no reason is given. This is the nature of online agreements in which a powerful organization, company- or in this case, the federal government, dictates the terms to all the users on a take it or leave it basis, often throwing in mysterious mandates for which the powers that be admit of no need to justify.

Now I have seen the Cash for Clunkers coverage on CNN. CNN is discussing how you can find out if your “clunker” qualifies. CNN is telling the public that you can find out by going to Cars.org. CNN does not mention the terms of agreement, which specifically states “"This application provides access to the DoT CARS system. When logged on to the CARS system, your computer is considered a Federal computer system and is the property of the U.S. Government." There is only a nudge to hurry up and do it because the first money is already running out and maybe Congress will not approve more- so rush rush rush to get yours.

Every bit of our money that the government is spending has strings attached if and
when the government gives any of it back to the people. The strings attached to the “Stimulus” funds transfer power from the states to the federal government ( See suggested Maine State Sovereignty Resolution Here). The Cash for Clunkers takes the privacy rights from those who skip reading the Terms of Service Agreement before logging onto the DoT.CARS system. We all know that with the plethora of online agreements connected to ubiquitous online functions that it has become common practice to accept the terms of agreement without reading it. The online Terms of Agreements are one-sided , written in the interest of one party. I some instances they claim rights that can be legally challenged provided there are those who want to use the court system for that purpose and judges that will fairly hear the cases. Even our courts are politically influenced by the powerful and often the dockets are overwhelmed.

This is why I have chosen online agreements as my Constitutional Watchdog focus.

I sent my first alert to Glenn Beck as soon as I heard the announcement of Constitutional Watchdog and then I started a topic on my meetup group The Art of Handcrafted Production. I do not know if my alert will get the attention of the Glenn Beck Show since there are so many people writing to Glenn Beck. That is why we need many Constitutional Watchdog sites to publish citizen reports. I expect that others will have the same idea and so, as I discover other sites that are part of the Constitutional Watchdog movement, I will list them on this site.

More on the first alert that I sent to Glenn Beck in my next posting.
In the meantime I invite others to list their areas of focus or their websites in theintroduction topic at The Art Of Handcrafted Production.

The Struggle of Honduras to Retain it's Sovereign Constitution

There is huge contrast between the way that The Miami Herald reports the story of the Honduras government's handling of Zalaya's unconstitutional atempt to extend his reign of power, and the way that ABC News reports the same story.

Miami Herald Headline Honduras crisis shows Latin America's weaknesses. The story reports that all branches of the Honduras government opposed Zalaya's unconstitutional attempt to instate a process for his re-election - with the help of Hugo Chavez. The Miami Herald reports that The Supreme Court of Honduras order the military to oust Zalaya and to escort him out of the country. It reports that Obama stood with Hugo, Chavez, Noriega, and Castro in condemning the combined actions of the Honduras, government. Supreme court and military and called their combined actions "unconstitutional".

ABC News Headline Obama condemns Honduras coup. The article describes the coup only as "an army backed coup" failing to mention that the other branches of the Honduras government opposed Zalaya's unconstitutional attempt to extend his reign of power and that Zalaya's attempt to intitate a referendum is unconstitutional because under Honduras law only the Congress is authorized to do so.

ABC then reports that Obama declared the coup unconstitutional and goes on to say "The UN General Assembly has passed a resolution calling for Mr. Zalaya’s "immediate and unconditional" reinstatement. "

Has the government and constitution of Honduras been replaced by a world tribunal- or is this just wish fulfillment by the UN General Assembly?. Since when did the UN General Assembly have the power to weigh in on the decisions of the Supreme Court of a sovereign nation? And what ever happened to Obama’s principled stand of “not meddling” in the affairs of a sovereign nation- Obama's "principled" stand used to justify his delayed support for the people of Iran.

Jul. 1, 2009 - 8:55 AM EST
From the Website of the UN General Assembly

Joining the 20other speakers from the Americas in rejecting the coup, the United
States delegate said her country had also joined its colleagues in the Organization of American States yesterday in condemning the coup. United States President Barack Obama had also called on all actors to resolve any dispute peacefully through dialogue and free of any outside influence. Her country would continue to work through the Organization of American States to help the Honduran people.

Nicaragua’s representative urged the people of Honduras to arm themselves with courage and let the “putschists” know that their time had passed. All of America, both North and South, rejected their coup, and no more banana republics where oligarchs could continue to exploit the people with impunity existed. Although they claimed to be acting in support of democracy, they acted with bare-faced illogic that went against the region’s recent democratic history.

She particularly condemned the abduction of Patricia Rodas, the Foreign Minister of Honduras, as well as the kidnapping of the ambassadors of Cuba, Venezuela and
Nicaragua. That flagrant violation of international law was an act of aggression against each respective country that would not go unpunished

Did I read this right ? Is it true that " United States President Barack Obama had also called on all actors to resolve any dispute peacefully through dialogue and free of any outside influence"

So now the sovereign government of Honduras is the "outside influence”. It is not unreasonable to interpret Obama's words as a thinly veiled threat to the government of Honduras that if they do not accept the judicial authority of the United Nations Assembly, that there may be the use of "unpeaceful" means of asserting the collective will of the United Nations Gerneral Assembly majority, over the sovereign nation of Honduras, by the same. Isn't this "the tyranny of the (global) majority" - the same sort of tyranny that PUBLIUS provided the citizens of the United States, protection against, when they created the United States Constitution?

Obama called the murder of the Iranian people by their own government a "debate" and now he implies that the military escort or a president who is unconstitutionally trying to extend his power, ordered by the Supreme Court of a sovereign state was not a "peaceful resolution".

I saw innocent people being murdered by what Obama describes as a "debate" and no one being killed or injured, in a constitutional removal of a president in what Obama implies was an "un-peaceful" action.

What a wordsmith is our president!
