					<description><![CDATA[blert, I believe when high school students hundreds of years hence study the period from 1970 - 2000 the most significant event, by far, will be the mapping of the human genome.

					<description><![CDATA[Don Carlos, I&#039;m sure you know that employee funded (supplied, subsidized) health care was an outcome of FDR&#039;s wage freezes.  Prior to that it was not common for folks to associate medical insurance with their employer.  Few companies want to be in the insurance business.  Many smaller companies opposed the ACA because it mandates they must provide coverage if they have more than 50 employees, but most companies larger than that would love to get out of the insurance game, especially the very large companies.

For the record; I am no fan of the ACA.  I think it is the final nail in the coffin of this Republic (sorry, Mr. Franklin, we couldn&#039;t keep it!), but facts are stubborn things.

Just as FDR shifted the conversation so it became natural for insurance to be coupled with employment, BHO has shifted the conversation so it will soon be natural for insurance to be coupled with government.

Welcome to socialism.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I left out one critical detail. The ONLY K-selection performed was for age. Only old males were permitted to mate with old females.

ALL of the other attributes shifted as a consequence. 

No explicit effort was ever made to push for super strength, etc.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

The professor&#039;s working theory is that the DNA controls energy flow within cells -- and the body. And that the ability to live long entirely correlates to a DNA shift that vectors energy and priority towards repair -- generally.

All of the astounding results turn on the ability of the flies to repair cell damage -- up and down the scale.

This DNA driven &#039;choice&#039; is contrasted with pouring energy into reproduction -- making new (fly) copies, instead of repairing cell tissue.

This would be termed r-selection.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

The real story of Black DNA is that Blacks missed out on the Ice Ages. They straddled the equator.

The only races that were trapped during the Ice Ages were the White races.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

Which gets to another point: There were multiple White races, multiple Black races, etc.

Lacking DNA knowledge, our ancestors over simplified what evolution had caused.

It&#039;s only now becoming apparent that entirely separated pockets of humanity merged to become the White race. Further, that the term Caucasian is entirely erroneous -- and, to the surprise of most, is actually a very recent term.

The Black races are actually numerous, the most numerous, in fact. What is taken to be tribalism by non-Blacks is actually a racial barrier that has separated Blacks from each other for countless millennia. 

And the San (Bushmen) absolutely do not consider themselves as being of any Black race. They are simply: the San. DNA establishes that all of the Black races are daughter races of the San, but they don&#039;t much like each other. Intra-Black racism pre-dates the existence of the White races, apparently. They got to dis-liking each other tens of thousands of years ago.

Only non-Blacks lump them together. 

&#038;&#038;&#038;

Near as I can tell, up until pretty recently, the human population -- globally -- was so low that all of these races could stay separated for countless generations -- and start to evolve based upon local selection pressures.

The transition back to constant cross-racial communication seems to have been much more recent than one might think.

The Polynesians didn&#039;t really cross connect with anyone until the last three hundred years. They are a case study in dispersal. 

Primitives were discovered in Papua New Guinea as late as forty-years ago!

Even the Greeks were astonishingly clueless WRT the existence of India -- circa 300 BC. That&#039;s a pretty big thing to lose! Even Aristotle was fooled.

These facts are all &#039;tells&#039; that genetic mixing didn&#039;t begin to occur at any tempo. Mountains, oceans, and deserts really did permit co-evolution to occur for countless generations. The few souls that crossed those divides had no significance, genetically.

It is only in our time (last twenty generations) that all of the races are in contact.

It&#039;s been a rough go. 

As Barry Soetoro shows, we have a lot more rough sledding directly ahead.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The way it&#039;s REALLY working is that the polity is being generally led to believe that 0-care is actually kicking in.

It&#039;s NOT.

Essentially all of the taxes are being delayed. They, during this phase in period, are being funded by the general fund.

Further, at no time is the general public, nor the Press, brought up to speed about the tremendous restrictions being imposed upon outlays.

Only the insiders are privy to the figures, but in general terms, 0-care is expected to roll back medical wages/ incomes -- by slicing the salami.

Such baby-cuts are to always be kept below the level of a Press sound bite. They are always to be couched in complexities. It&#039;s a craft well known in insurance circles. 

On the whole, the grand scheme is to cut off the magnum expenses associated with end-of-life medical intervention. It&#039;s a fat target. It&#039;s also a White target. 

&#038;&#038;&#038;

There is a HUGE race-centric shift in mortality statistics. This is due to the fact that Blacks live faster lives than Whites.

Blacks evolved in an r-selected environmental niche. The only DNA that survived reached puberty early, at least 30 months earlier than Whites. 

I&#039;ll provide two, high profile examples:

LeBron James and Kelly Olynyk.

Both are NBA super-players. 

I suspect that both are headed straight to the Hall-of-Fame.

James was a man among men even as a teen. If he were tele-ported through time and space back to west Africa, he&#039;d be a super chieftain, no doubt.

Olynyk was a string-bean even in college. He didn&#039;t even top out until he was a freshman in college. He didn&#039;t even bulk out until three-years latter, still. His adulthood lagged that of James by at least 60 months.

Everyone in my extended family reached adulthood very late in life. And everyone in my extended family figures to live dang near forever. My ancestors lived into their nineties -- a century ago. The exceptions all suffered various traumas.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

This racial shift has vast national policy implications when the two populations are folded together as if they had the same mortality statistics.

It certainly has not escaped Barry&#039;s notice that Blacks scarcely dip into Social Security. The typical Black male simply dies too soon.

Other racial differences are vast: impotence and diabetes run at near universal levels for elderly Black men. A Black male commonly has the vital statistics of a White male fifteen years his senior.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

Generations back, a UCI biologist K-selected fruit flies: he sexed the critters -- and would not permit mating until very late in the life span of a normal fruit fly.

They lived fast and died young... until the professor played god. Within 20 generations he was able to DNA shift his population (K-selected) into Olympic achievements. His &#039;crew&#039; could survive brutal treatment and snap back: oxygen starvation/ cold punishments/ ... the works.

They were also able to out muscle all other fruit flies.

THAT&#039;S how powerful K-selection can be -- and how quickly. The legacy of the Ice Ages morphed the White races into K-selected reproduction. 

Ashkenazi Jewry has taken this to the extreme. Stupid Ashkenazi teens quickly find that their dating prospects are dismal. (I&#039;ve seen this first hand -- in my old high school.) 

Now that the College Board (SAT) has sifted the youth cohort for brains, we&#039;re witnessing a drastic K-selection shift across ALL races.

&#038;&#038;&#038;

But the existing population -- now forceably blended in the statistics -- is going to make all medical outcomes -- on a national-statistical basis -- loaded with political import.

In this regard, America is TOTALLY unlike the other socialized medical-government complexes.

You can take it to the bank that the experts will take from those naturally long living to give to those who are r-selected to bred early and often -- yet die young.

It&#039;s a slow motion race war over the generations, pure and simple.

Because none of the relevant statistics and science can be admitted to, any rational discussion can&#039;t even begin.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Don Carlos and London Trader, I used simple numbers to explain what will happen.

Do you realize how many large corporations were in favor of the ACA?  Why do you think that is?  What about large pension plans, like GM?  They know they can use this to shift their obligation to provide medical insurance to retirees to the tax payers.  The ACA pool will get bigger and bigger and the private pools will get smaller and smaller.  What about all the states going bankrupt from pension obligations to teachers, policemen and firemen?

This is how it is designed.  There is even videotape of Obama and others explaining this &quot;boil the frog&quot; method prior to his first election.]]></description>
