               The NOKO Crickets
By T.S.Khanna, August 14, 2017.

Bravo, President Trump for your thunderous and roaring response to North Korea's crickets, Kim Jong Un and his cronies.

For the first time, we have felt that the USA is a country of lions/tigers, not of jackals and pusillanimous pet cats.  If it comes to arms conflict, so be it.  We rather die protecting America's honor than live in disgrace and fear, like jackals.  Real safety is in valor, not in closets.  The cowards die many  times before their death.  At every sound of a roar, they rush to hide and cuddle.  Such citizens are a liability to America.   They are only attuned to the comforts and security at others' cost.  They are not the voice of America.

 President Trump, please continue to ignore the criticism  of the cowards and listen to the support of the brave  and strong Americans who are with you.  Your roaring response to the NOKO crickets is music to true Americans, willing to protect the honor of America..   Now is the right opportunity to silence the NOKO crickets for good.   In consideration of their repeated challenges, a preemptive strike may be in order.

Internal Dangers to America, By T.S.Khanna, August 9,2017

              Internal Dangers to America
                 ByT.S. Khanna, August 9, 2017.

There seem to be two internal dangers lurking in America(USA): probable socialism and possible dictatorship.

Foundation of America was laid on a capitalistic democracy with a free market economy that carried built-in incentives for production of goods, competitive quality, and efficiency.  That system rewarded people in proportion to their effort and skill with minimal government interference.

After the Great Depression of the 1930 s,  Federal Government started to expand its size and activities: programs like Social Security and Medicare were initiated.   Later on,  political economy started replacing the free market economy with the establishment of Labor Unions, Welfare, and Unemployment Insurance programs.  All these consumptive programs have been  causing budget deficit.  Now they cannot be discontinued as the beneficiaries consider it their birthright to draw the benefits at the expense of taxpayers.

Political economy, leading to Socialism, thrives on the practice of "rob Peter to pay Paul".  It has a self-propelling force with a growing number of voters opting to be beneficiaries.  Expansion of political economy, demands higher wages and higher taxes, extinguishing more businesses and creating more deficit.

Today America is in a deficit of nearly $ 20 trillion.  The day of reckoning is postponed by increasing the debt limit every year.

In a capitalistic democracy, more wealth is produced than consumed, making the successive generations wealthier.  Political economy has placed America in a reverse cycle.  Now America is teetering at the brink of socialism.  If history is any  guide, all the dreams and hopes of Americans
will vanish if America falls into Socialism.  

The other danger lurking around is of dictatorship.  History informs us that chaos is the breeding ground for dictatorship.  The chaos that has become noticeable now has been growing for many years. Freedom has been diffused with indiscipline, irresponsibility,  and lack of accountability. More than sixty members of the Congress refused to accept Mr. Trump as the President and did not attend his inauguration ceremony on January 20, 2017.  In spite of this violation of their public duty, there has been no requirement of accountability.

Americans elected Trump not because of his party affiliation or political experience or his diplomatic skills but because of his guts, straightforwardness, determination and devotion to pursue the issues others regarded "politically incorrect" even to mention.  Trump was elected as a reaction to perceived inefficiency and indifference in government and its lack of ability to pursue national interests.  Constant in-fighting of Congress members in pursuit of their parochial interests at the expense of national interests has made it dysfunctional.  Trump had probably a false vision of making it functional again.  The dysfunctional Congress is the perennial  source of chaos.

To achieve its goals, an organization needs clarity of the goals and loyalty and determination of the employees to pursue those goals.  Trump is at odds with the government as he finds the essential characteristics for success are missing in the government employees and members of the Congress.

Under the Constitution, President is the Chief Executive, elected by all Americans as his constituents.  All government employees work for him, at his will.  They owe loyalty to him, not to their own chaos causing individual interpretation of the Constitution.

The "Russian Investigation of the Trump Campaign" currently in progress is out of turn, purposeless, and  causing chaos.   This investigation should have been done before or during the election.  What public purpose can it serve now?  Let us look at the worst case scenario: indictment of the Trump Campaign.  What then?  Can we undo the election results or undo Trump's Presidency?

The strategy and energy to make America the greatest ever is being misspent and great opportunity being lost.  

It is strongly recommended:
1.  Stop and dismantle the set-up for the Russian investigation.
2.  Give immunity to Hillary Clinton, Lorette Lynch, Susan Rice, and Comey  against any law suits or   investigations.
3.  To adopt preventive measures, identify reasons what makes the ambitious politicians so out of line with the national interests and  violate the laws of the land.
