trouble

Long ago, while I was a student at Bard college, I took a summer to go on a brave
hitchhiking trip where I meandered my way to Arizona from Montana, and later to a
Rainbow Gathering in Nevada. I found myself at Walnut Canyon in Flagstaff, AZ. This
ancient dwelling was my introduction to one of the worlds most spiritually advanced
people, the traditional [hereinafter Hopi] Hopi. Years later in Seattle The Book of the Hopi
caught my eye in a bookstore, and I was overcome by the prophesy of WWIII found in the
book. I was urged by friends to go to Flagstaff to meet the Hopi and learn more about
what the prophesy was about. I have since walked with Hopi shamans in the city of
Flagstaff, following our spirits as closely as we know how. In small ways I have been
tested by the Hopi. I am hoping that this writing helps the Hopi cause, and hopes the
cause for 'good' in general.
I knew from my college education, and my reading, that the United States militaryindustrial complex has been involved in a very diabolical fashion in the developing world
with war, wage slavery and a number of issues, but I didnt suspect WWIII was brewing.
Well, I was wrong. And I am willing to bet the American population is blithely unaware of
how close we are to WWIII also, and fewer still know why. As a nation we must act out of
peace and fair trade, with proper environmental regulations if we are going to make it.
And we must respect the rights of aboriginal people. Our voting patterns need to reflect
this, or we will reap what we sow.
We have been playing a game during the Cold War of supporting military dictatorships as
a front to thwart 'communist aggression' while we benefited from their cheap labor. Well,
the cheap labor part never went away as the Berlin Wall fell, and we are caught simply
holding the bag of war and wage slavery as we have seen in Iraq and wage slavery all
over Asia.
In the text Hotevilla by Mails and the late chief of the Hopi Dan Evehema, the Hopi
explain that they are adept at prophesy, and that they have prophesied WWIII (Hotevilla
p. 35, pp.489-494, etc). The reason for this is that just as they have been exploited, so
has the rest of the world in macrocosm by white America. WWIII can be avoided, but
white America has to stop controlling and exploiting the rest of the world. That is the
subject of this document.
--The Guatemala case (1950's) outlines the fulcrum point of the issue here. Amidst the
democratically elected government of Guatemala, too far Left for Washington...
thousands were arrested on suspicions of communist activity. Many were
tortured and killed. In August a law was passed and a committee set up which
could declare anyone a communist, with no right of appeal. Those so declared
could be arbitrarily arrested for up to six months, could not own a radio or hold
public office. Within four months the committee had registered 72,000 names. A
committee official said it was aiming at 200,000. United Fruit not only received
all its land back, but the government banned the banana workers' unions as well.
Moreover, seven employees of the company who had been active labor organizers
were found mysteriously murdered in Guatemala City. 1
And thus the stage was set for American foreign policy. United Fruit got full control of
Guatemalan fruit, through the brutal control of the Guatemalan government by the CIA.

Under the guise of communist aggression, American forces could be sent into to
vulnerable nations to topple powers and 'protect our US interests'. Notice you only know
what the CIA is doing years in retrospect. God knows what they are up to now. And in
the civil war in El Salvador:
[President Duarte, a Christian South American President said in 1969 that US policy
in Latin America was designed to] maintain the Iberoamerican countries in a
condition of direct dependence upon the international political decisions most
beneficial to the United States, both at the hemisphere and world levels. The [the
North American] (brackets theirs) preach to us of democracy while everywhere
they support dictatorships.2
On 28 January 1982, President Reagan certified to Congress that the El Salvador
government was making a concerted and significant effort to comply with
internationally recognized human rights and this it was achieving substantial
control over all elements of its own armed forces, so as to bring to an end the
indiscriminate torture and murder of the Salvadoran citizens by these forces. 3
Two days later From 700 to 1,000 persons were reported killed, mostly elderly,
women and children people hacked to death by machetes, many beheaded, a
child thrown in the air and caught on a bayonet, an orgy of rapes of very young
before they were killed If we don't kill them [the children] (brackets theirs) now,
they'll just grow up to be guerrillas, barked an army officer to a reluctant soldier
anti-communism at its zenith.4
Both immediately and thereafter, the massacre was attended by denials and
coverup by the State Department, with abundant media complicity. 5
In all, William Blum (author of Killing Hope) accounts for 55 chapters of cases of military
interventions, such as the Guatemalans and El Salvador case, since WWII (some cases
repeat in the same country).
A note on US supported authoritarian regimes. Please see the end note:
Over the last century, the United States government has often provided, and
continues to provide today, financial assistance, education, arms, military
training and technical support to numerous authoritarian regimes across the
world. A variety of reasons have been provided to justify the apparent
contradictions between support for dictators and the democratic ideals
expressed in the United States Constitution 6
We are not the world policeman. That would imply that we are set out to right wrongs, to
bring justice to an unjust world. We are out to plunder the world of its riches, at great
human cost. At a cost of our own soldiers, but mostly at the destabilization and loss of
life of vulnerable nations in the developing world rich with fossil fuels and mineral stores,
and ample opportunity for military bases to further our pillaging. Wall Street, K Street
and the Conservative Party cannot wait to further plunder this terrain with all the modern
equipment we have got, to turn Earth into a Death Star planet under their control, so it
seems. I must say this sounds absurd, but I don't get it myself. At each stage of global
climate change or military catastrophe that is out of a horror film, they press on further..
After the Cold War was over, George W Bush brazenly continued this theme with lies
(most notably that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq) to topple the

sovereign nation of Iraq, for no reason except to sequester the oil for economic and
military reasons. Economic reasons that are hampered by global climate change, and
military reasons that fuel the fire for WWIII. million people died in the Iraqi war.
Obviously this has been going on a long time. This wasn't the case in every foreign policy
decision, but the government intervened in foreign affairs using the military almost every
year since its inception, often protecting 'US interests'.
I would like to preface what I am about to say, by emphasizing that Native Americans
have had their land stolen from them from Alaska to the tip of Chile. White man can try
as he will, but he cannot escape the fact that he has stolen this land, and has done ill
with it ever since. Thus we have a world economy that is both poisonous and corrupt; a
military that is a bully, paranoid and cutthroat. The foundation of white behavior is based
on corruption. Until white people reconcile this problem with red people, there will be no
peace, in my opinion. Red people today still have to deal with the BIA, unfair business
practices such as fossil fuels and uranium mining buyouts, brainwashing by the churches,
etc. All the while white people plunder the world, killing and wage enslaving, using Turtle
Island as a base for such activity.
I am an activist, and in my travels I was presented with a book written by the traditional
Hopi called Hotevilla (the subject of the document, which I encourage you to read
yourself) by Thomas Mails and Dan Evehema before I went to Flagstaff. Mr. Evehema was
the chief and a traditional elder of the Hopi before he passed away in 1999. I never met
Mr. Evehema, but I was in Flagstaff when he passed away on the Hopi reservation 80
miles north.
Let's get into the prophesy, and why it is relevant to our time. The Hopi seem to be
among the most spiritually advanced people in the world, and their prophesies usually
come true. Their creed is Together with all nations we protect both land and life and
hold the world in balance. The upshot of Hotevilla is that the Hopi have prophesied
WWIII on page 35 of the text in a pictograph. On page 489 they refer back to page 35
and say The three circles on the lower path stand for three world-shaking events, which
will purify the world. Only people who live by the original law will be recognized, and
pass through this purification. The Hopi prophesy 'gourd full of ashes' would be
invented, which if dropped from the sky would boil the oceans and burn the land... They
talk about the exploitation they have experienced by white people Peabody Coal (who
stripped the aquifer, making it impossible to grow their ceremonial corn), the BIA
(preventing children from learning Hopi tradition), the Mormons (who insist on conversion,
an unbelievable insult as Hopi are spiritually among the most advanced in the world) and
other churches, their own Tribal Council (who threaten to take traditional Hopi land), and
even their own brainwashed people. The Tribal Council is even 'anti-hippie' (which I take
umbrage about!). They explained how they were offered medicine and education by
white people, and in turn the traditional Hopi had to turn to their tradition and meaning of
their tablets to find the right path. The white path of education would wipe out their
native education. This predicament led to the formation of Hotevilla village, the
traditional stronghold for the Hopi. They explain how their corn crops won't grow because
the coal aquifer has been taken away by Peabody Coal, and they rely on corn as the
basis of their ceremonies. They call their plight a microcosm of the world (the subtitle of
the book), indicating that the whole developing world has been similarly (or to a much
greater extent such as genocide and wage slavery) exploited, leading into a mood of
WWIII against the US. (Marx refers to this exploitation of the proletariat. I think it is
fitting that post-Marxist powers such as Russia and China would be the threat of
Purification Day.)

That seems to be the situation we are in today. The US foreign policy is famous for: war,
wage slavery, environmental racism, relocation of native people, support of dictators to
support US economic interests, absurd debt to maintain US markets, WTO/World
Bank/IMF control of the market, etc. Much of this we have seen in the formation of
'America', such as war, slavery, environmental chaos, relocation of native people for 2-4
hundred years. Whites are old hand at this. [For a visceral understanding of this foreign
situation I suggest seeing Oliver Stone's Salvador, about the civil war in El Salvador in the
80's that both the Carter and Reagan administrations supported.] Furthermore, territorial
disputes and resources like oil, water and minerals are becoming an issue as we see
soon-to-be peak and waning resources in those categories with Russia, China and their
allies. If the people of the Earth are ever going to make it through this, we are going to
have to work together, and respect one another. There is no other choice. At some point
we will have to love one another to survive.
Be aware of the fact that the Hopi themselves would like to see world peace, but they
know that peace comes through justice. We have a choice act fairly or suffer the
consequences. And also understand that the prophesy comes from a spiritual deity, not
a person. In other words, this is a matter of divine intervention. It is a bad omen, and the
purpose of a bad omen is to understand the ill path we have chosen and sober up. We
have hope, and choices to make along the path toward world peace. The Hopi want
world peace, we must follow their advice. The Hopi say in all of man's history peace has
never been accomplished through battle.
It is notable that in 1911 the traditional Hopi, including the then chief of the Hopi
Yukiuma, went to President Taft and told him that WWI and II were about to happen. If
the President had paid attention to this prophesy and worked with Yukiuma, perhaps
much of those disasters could have been avoided. Yukiuma was imprisoned for his
actions in trying to avoid WWI and II.
Recall Laius, the father of Oedipus in Sophocles' Oedipus Rex . Laius was given a bad
omen by the Oracle of Delphi, and instead of addressing his faults, he tried to kill his son
in hope of avoiding the omen. Laius was later slain by Oedipus. Thus the lesson is to
embrace the omen of the Hopi prophesy, the root of the problem; white people in
particular need to stop controlling everything and act out of love, which the Gospels
professes in the first place. This is (most pronounced and) antithetical to the
overwhelming construct of obsessive competition of the ruthless corporate and military
world. The military-industrial complex virtually owns the world and is in threat of
controlling practically everything, making life unlivable for billions of people, while
destroying the environment. The military thinks nothing of conditions where .5 million or
3 million people have been slaughtered (Iraq and Viet Nam, respectively). These
conditions are straight out of George Orwell's 1984, simply a horror story in the extreme.
In the developing world right now workers are making as little as .13 cents an hour, being
watched by hidden cameras, working to avoid starvation, being sexually abused, etc.
These are panic button kinds of stuff.
--We are involved in the plight of millions, some two to three billion people that we affect
worldwide with our economy. Interesting to note that Native Americans do not try to
control nature, but rather to work with it. That is the difference between cultures. And
now the white fascist economy is magnified all over the Earth like a cancer, that one
white character trait of controlling nature rather than working with her. We can choose

now.. work with the Earth and her people and live in peace, or suffer the consequences
trying to control everything all the time.
Domestically we need to address the fact that white people have slaughtered 90% or so
of Native Americans, and sequestered them on the worst land, land that corporations now
want for mineral interests. Also, African-Americans are being slaughtered in the streets
by the police, a history that goes back hundreds of years. Black Lives Matter. This is a
simple basic cry to say that we are all human beings, we all need to love one another as
brothers and sisters. This message has been a long time coming in American evolution.
You know who else has color to their skin? About 5 billion people south of here. If white
people cannot love and honor that Black Lives Matter here, whites are obviously not
competent enough to handle the complexities of the developing world. And this is where
all of business is going. Thus another tremendous problem.
All people are now related by either blood and/or marriage around the world due to global
transportation, immigration and intermarriages over the past two centuries. We are all
one people across the Earth, and it is time to treat everyone as one world family. It is
time to love and accept every peaceful person.
It is coming time that we will become our own worst enemy as purification day strikes
and a red army covers the earth like red ants. It is much, much wiser for everyone if
we all worked together, as friends, on this one small Earth. We cannot risk uncontrolled
war over issues like water or oil for one when it is needed by all, and for future
generations. Competitive capitalism has its place in small doses, but international
cooperation is something we must all embrace if we are going to make it. And I think
most Americans do get this. Cooperation in business is necessary for us to make it. And
that includes things like free health care, free public college/trade school education, etc.
We need to work together, not at each other. And the environment defines the limits to
our behavior.
And yet, given our free market system, if everyone enjoyed the pleasures of the free
market the environment would collapse. I recall a statement by Corporate Watch years
ago that said that if every family on Earth had a mini refrigerator, the CO2 emissions
would collapse the environment of the Earth very shortly. Not only does our humanitarian
system have to change, but our economic system has to change with it to serve the
environment properly. These are all very, very serious considerations, and the alternative
seems to be world war in the near future. The capitalist system is based on self-interest,
not on cooperation. You cannot have billions of people acting on self-interest in the
economy without the environment collapsing. We must work together, and work less,
toward meaningful goals.
--Can you believe right now there are more than one billion people overweight, and 820
million people underfed? Our world is so out of balance right now. Half of the world is
partying it up, while the other half starves to death. Thus was the state of the world
before Noah's flood.
There is enough food in the world to provide every human being with 3,500
calories a day. Scarcity is not the problem, but the absence of purchasing power of
the ill-nourished to buy in the market. It is a lack of distributive justice which
leaves at least 800 million hungry and, in 2003, threatened wide-scale famine in
Southern and East Africa.7

More than 840 million people in the world are malnourished

Six million children under the age of five die every year as a consequence of
malnutrition
1.2 billion people in the world live on less than a dollar a day. Half the world's
population live on less than two dollars a day
The income of the richest 1% of people in the world is equal to that of the poorest
57%
In the developing world, 91 children out of every 1000 die before their 5 birthday
12 million people die annually from lack of water; 1.1 billion do not have access to
clean water; 2.4 billion live without proper sanitation
40 million people are living with AIDS
More than 113 million children in the developing world have no basic education;
60% of them are girls
Women are still the poorest of the poor, representing 70% of those in absolute
poverty
Women work two-thirds of the world's working hours, produce half the
world's food, yet earn only 10% of the world's income and own less than 1%
of the world's property.8
th

In terms of understanding global economic responsibility, let's compare the richest one
fifth with the poorest one fifth of the world:
The richest fifth of the world's people consume 45% of the world's meat and fish; the
poorest fifth 5%
The richest fifth consume 58% of total energy, the poorest fifth less than 4%
The richest fifth have 74% of all the telephone lines, the poorest fifth 1.5%
The richest fifth own 87% of the world's vehicles, the poorest fifth less than 1% 9
We are living in a time of gross income inequality:
A January 2014 report by Oxfam claims that the 85 wealthiest individuals in the world have a
combined wealth equal to that of the bottom 50% of the world's population, or about 3.5 billion
people. According to a Los Angeles Times analysis of the report, the wealthiest 1% owns 46% of
the world's wealth; the 85 richest people, a small part of the wealthiest 1%, own about 0.7% of
the human population's wealth, which is the same as the bottom half of the population. More
recently, in January 2015, Oxfam reported that the wealthiest 1 percent will own more than half
of the global wealth by 2016. An October 2014 study by Credit Suisse also claims that the top
1% now own nearly half of the world's wealth and that the accelerating disparity could trigger a
recession. In October 2015, Credit Suisse published a study which shows global inequality
continues to increase, and that half of the world's wealth is now in the hands of those in the top
percentile, whose assets each exceed $759,900. A 2016 report by Oxfam claims that the 62
wealthiest individuals own as much wealth as the poorer half of the global population combined.
Oxfam's claims have however been questioned on the basis of the methodology used: by using
net wealth (adding up assets and subtracting debts), the Oxfam report, for instance, finds that
there are more poor people in the United States and Western Europe than in China (due to a
greater tendency to take on debts). According to the New York Times on July 22, 2014, the
"richest 1 percent in the United States now own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent .
Crippling third world debt kills:

10

Rich countries have pressured these poor countries to sacrifice health and
education spending and prioritize on
debt repayment;
Rich countries have protected their agricultural markets while forcing poor
countries to open theirs, leading to
dumping and flooding of products, driving
local people out of businesses and livelihoods.
For rich countries, the debt figures involved are tiny;
For poor countries, these same figures are a matter of life and death Extrapolating
from UNICEF data, as many as 5,000,000 children and vulnerable adults may have
lost their lives in sub-Sharan Africa as a result of the debt crunch since the late
1980s.
The United Nations fears another 3 million children will die in the poorest countries
of sub-Saharan Africa by 2015, the target for the Millenium Development Goals to
cut poverty by half.
Some 11 million children die each year around the world, not just Africa, due to
similar conditions of poverty and debt.
These statistics typically define children as those under the age of five. What about
6, or 7, for example?111

In the global capitalist system, those not seen by Americans are treated with disregard. To corporations they are
'things', not 'people' and 'land':
Planning does not include democratic consultation, omits adequate compensation for the
displaced, and neglects environmental concerns. Construction is accompanied by official
secrecy, deal-fixing, corruption and inefficiency and dirt-cheap wages for site laborers, many
of whom are women and children. Not all such projects demonstrate these failings, but they are
typical of many. International investment from the private market, the public purse, or some
combination of the two is often involved.12
...the kind of economies in which many poor people live are actively ignored, and the kind of
economic progress that is taking place often deprives them of their livelihoods. Economic
growth, the standard measure of development, is undoubtedly necessary. But too little effort has
been made to invest in models for growth that would permit people still living off the natural
resource base to maintain security over an existing or future livelihood. 13
The resources that are dwindling for the poor of the Global South are creating complexities that are
getting to be exponentially hard to overcome in capitalism. However, if we worked together we could
solve these problems overnight:
The deregulation of world financial markets went hand-in-hand with an emphasis on free trade.
Banks, insurance companies and investment dealers, whose operations had been mostly
confined within national borders, were suddenly unleashed. 14
Trimming costs to the corporation is a matter of digits on a calculator, but to people and the environment it is a
matter of livelihood around the world. The power of the corporation to change lives is too subtle, and too
profane.

http://www.globalissues.org/article/23/imf--world-bank-protests-washington-dc

When two corporate giants merge it inevitably leads to thousands of job losses and scores of
factory closings. In fact this is precisely the point to bolster the bottom line by trimming
costs.15
The IMF and World Bank, both run by corporate leadership, support the privatization of the marketplace v.
government intervention. Obviously, government intervention is based on an impartial aid, while privatization is
based on capital gain and development, at the cost of the population and environment.
Privatization has been strongly endorsed by both the World Bank and the IMF and is a standard
ingredient in any 'structural adjustment' prescription. It is based on the notion that governments
really have no business in the marketplace and that the least government is the best
government.16
And some social costs of all of this are:
Just as there are hundreds of millions of people suffering from food insecurity, there are similar
numbers suffering from water insecurity and health-threatening pollution. At last count, 1.1
billion people were without a supply of safe water, and 2.6 billion without proper means of
sanitation.17
With these suggestions...:
Political solutions are needed to reinvigorate democratic control both North and South. But
political reforms need to be combined with structural reforms. In combination these should put
meaningful employment and human rights at the heart of economic policy, boost local control
and decision-making, and restore the ecological health and natural capital of our planet. 18
Maybe the IMF should be democratic? I think it should be shut down, started over as a truly egalitarian
organization.
Perhaps more important is the need for a complete change in the organizational culture of the
[International Monetary] Fund. It must be open to the public, not closed; pluralist and openminded, not dogmatic. It must listen, not lecture; and it must learn from its mistakes. 19
This new, global economy is destroying the Earth under the rubric of 'modern times'.
We [traditional Hopi] see immorality flourishing and corruption everywhere. Men in
high places are promoting destructive instruments of war which threaten to wipe
out the world and its people for destructive purposes. We see polluting of the air,
water and land, and the depleting of the soil where once all plants grew healthy.
We see the forests drying up and being destroyed. We see numbers of the earth's
wonderful life species becoming extinct because of man's carelessness. The
overall result is that the old, original natural order is badly disturbed, and this is
causing climate changes to descend upon all parts of this country and the world. 20
Marxian analysis of economic inequality explains downward wages and undo competition among workers:
Marxian economics attributes rising inequality to job automation and capital deepening within
capitalism. The process of job automation conflicts with the capitalist property form and its
attendant system of wage labor.
In Marxian analysis, capitalist firms increasingly substitute capital equipment for labor inputs
(workers) under competitive pressure to reduce costs and maximize profits. Over the long-term,
this trend increases the organic composition of capital, meaning that less workers are required in

proportion to capital inputs, increasing unemployment (the "reserve army of labour"). This
process exerts a downward pressure on wages. The substitution of capital equipment for labor
(mechanization and automation) raises the productivity of each worker, resulting in a situation
of relatively stagnant wages for the working class amidst rising levels of property income for the
capitalist class.21
Worker wages explained:
In a purely capitalist mode of production (i.e. where professional and labor organizations cannot
limit the number of workers) the workers wages will not be controlled by these organizations, or
by the employer, but rather by the market. Wages work in the same way as prices for any other
good. Thus, wages can be considered as a function of market price of skill. And therefore,
inequality is driven by this price. Under the law of supply and demand, the price of skill is
determined by a race between the demand for the skilled worker and the supply of the skilled
worker. "On the other hand, markets can also concentrate wealth, pass environmental costs on to
society, and abuse workers and consumers." "Markets, by themselves, even when they are
stable, often lead to high levels of inequality, outcomes that are widely viewed as
unfair."Employers who offer a below market wage will find that their business is chronically
understaffed. Their competitors will take advantage of the situation by offering a higher wage
the best of their labor. For a businessman who has the profit motive as the prime interest, it is a
losing proposition to offer below or above market wages to workers.
A job where there are many workers willing to work a large amount of time (high supply)
competing for a job that few require (low demand) will result in a low wage for that job. This is
because competition between workers drives down the wage. An example of this would be jobs
such as dish-washing or customer service. Competition amongst workers tends to drive down
wages due to the expendable nature of the worker in relation to his or her particular job. A job
where there are few able or willing workers (low supply), but a large need for the positions (high
demand), will result in high wages for that job. This is because competition between employers
for employees will drive up the wage. Examples of this would include jobs that require highly
developed skills, rare abilities, or a high level of risk. Competition amongst employers tends to
drive up wages due to the nature of the job, since there is a relative shortage of workers for the
particular position. Professional and labor organizations may limit the supply of workers which
results in higher demand and greater incomes for members. Members may also receive higher
wages through collective bargaining, political influence, or corruption. 22
Imagine if Russia and China ruled the whole world, and there were no market competition. That may be what
they are after.
Education of women, economic liberalism, regulation, and unions top reasons for increasing wages among poor
population:
More of Barro studies also find that female secondary education is positively associated with
growth. His findings show that countries with low female education; increasing it has little
effect on economic growth, however in countries with high female education, increasing it
significantly boosts economic growth. More and better education is a prerequisite for rapid
economic development around the world. Education stimulates economic growth and improves
people's lives through many channels.23
John Schmitt and Ben Zipperer (2006) of the CEPR point to economic liberalism and the
reduction of business regulation along with the decline of union membership as one of the
causes of economic inequality.24
The white perspective is largely to 'control' the environment while the non-white culture (in this case the Maori)

respects the life force of every living thing, even the Earth as a living organism. This vast difference is at the
core of today's political issue. Would we be in a predicament of facing WWIII if the US did not foster the
slaughter of the global environment and the subjugation of millions of people, while going to war in an ongoing
way? Probably not.
..two opposing world views: one that sees human beings as part of and not dominant over fauna
and flora, and one that sees the natural world as ripe for exploitation and domination. In the
Maori view, humans are obliged to respect the mauri or central life force of every living thing.
People's rights to use natural things are balanced by obligations. Maori are not against
development, says Maui Solomon. But they do insist that the Government, local authorities and
commercial companies stop to consider the issues form their cultural perspective. 25
I think it is also important to talk about wage slavery in the core of this issue, as it is all
about money anyway. See www.workersrights.org for more on wage slavery. Teen agers
are coming in from the country in droves in places like China and Bangladesh to work at
jobs for as little as .13 cents an hour, 12 hour days, six, sometimes seven days a week.
In the text Made in China by Pun Ngai she talks about the scream dream in which the
worker (daongmei) wakes up screaming, in fear about worker another grueling day in the
factory. For products that we take for granted, and even throw away. The balance must
shift toward the workers who make the products that make up our economy.
Corporations are very involved with lobbying on K street and in the function of the WTO
to make sure that both environmental and labor regulations are poor in international
business, to perpetuate wage slavery conditions in order to maintain these record profits,
while the IMF and World Bank streamline foreign markets so that crops and products fit
the developed world market.
In a 2011 interview, Chau nhat Binh of the VGCLs [Vietnam General
Confederation of Labor] International Department called the wages paid by
foreign-invested factories in Vietnam shockingly low.135 A 2012 study by
the VGCLs Institute of Workers and Trade Unions found that wages for
workers in the footwear industry averaged only $ 124 per month, less than
the average monthly wage figure for workers in all formal sec- tor industries
($ 136), and the lowest wage of any sector surveyed.
The text Made in China is a representative example of wage slavery in the developing
world. I would like to cite examples of wage slavery from this text. Ngai points out the
irony of multinational business class warfare against Chinese workers in the global
workplace (an obvious affront to communism), as well as a totalitarian warfare against
vulnerable women from the Chinese government by sanctioning and benefiting from
wage slavery resulting in an inflated Gross Domestic Product. For a while, the
government made wages in China artificially low in order to compete with local Asian
competitors and retain US business. Young women workers, then, suffer the most from
fascism from America and totalitarianism from their home Chinese government. Both of
these entities claim to be paragons of justice and symbols of freedom and justice. ...the
Chinese Communist Party, once proclaimed as the avant-garde party of the working class,
now turns the sword against its constituency. They suffer both as workers, and as
women. They suffer both from fascism, and from totalitarianism. They are the 'innocent'
in Christian terms and the proletariat in Communist terms. 26
The study of wage slavery, which likely affects 1 billion people I would guess, is a case in point of Marx's
alienation from one's labor. No one wants to do it. This is a volatile situation, particularly with a changing
environment and pending war on the horizon; it is easy to pick up soldiers given these conditions, as there
certainly is nothing more to live for, certainly no meaning in one's work or food for one's family.

In other words, we have completely left our 'state of nature' which is freer of corruption, as Rousseau and any
Native American will tell you. We all know a little about wage slavery, whatever job you have. Jobs, by their
very nature, whether they be the most tortuous wage slavery job at .10 cents an hour with a wicked boss and a
dangerous job, or multi-million dollar celebrity jobs, are restraining. They all lead to self-estrangement and
change your identity, regardless of who you are. That alone is cause for calling for a 20 hour work week. Work
is work. Who we are should be kept sacred, not to be shaped by how we contribute to society, alone. In order
for us to learn from our spirit, and the spirit of the Earth and universe, ie God' for lack of a better term, we must
be free as much as possible. Working all the time estranges ourselves not only from our community, family,
friends, self, but to God the divine. In the Chinese wage slave workplace we see true fascism, a fascism where
the worker cannot vote for better conditions and the industrial complex is far too massive to take on in rebellion.
This is the embodiment of George Orwell's 1984...
Male power and female subordination were vividly contrasted. The analysts
made suggestions and sent orders, and female bodies would need to catch
up to the pace again. The time analysts studied not only the amount of time
the work required but also the workers' bodily actions-every bodily action
had to be correct. The distance between each body, the distance between
the body and the conveyer belt, the height of the chair, and the table and
the shelf were all carefully measured and planned. Time and space were all
to be used economically; there was to be no waste of surplus bodily actions
and no waste of surplus labor force. This was, at least, the dream of the
production line.27
The timetable was so strict, so rigorous that everybody could feel it-could
know and experience it. Life was dissected into a series of timed behaviors,
rigidly patterned and stored in the body and mind of each worker
Accommodating, resisting, and understanding the power from the side of
capital and from ourselves were all nested in the workplace. 28
...an electric eye was installed at the corner of the wall on each floor. But
none of the workers could see it actually work and no one knew when it was
on or off.29
Wage slavery affects me personally. Every time I eat, I feel obliged to pray for the people
who work on the farms and slaughter houses that produce my food, largely at wages
below minimum wage, migrant workers. Migrant workers do work American citizens
would never do, such as pick tomatoes at a rapid rate. Tomatoes, chocolate, cotton, most
vegetables, sneakers, garments, plastic all are often produced at a wage that would be
considered under any sort of minimum wage. I remember what worker minimum wage
was like as a teenager here in the US in the 80's (thanks to the Reagan Revolution), $3.15
an hour. It was grueling, fast, hard work and it was hard to save any of it. You had to
work two jobs to make it worth it, plus overtime. Imagine if your whole life was like that.
It is hard for me to write this document of social change because it is such difficult
subject matter, some of which I identify with. Although I have never been through wage
slavery, I have worked 100 hour plus weeks to get through college, and I know what it
takes out of your soul. I cannot imagine working like that all the time. Furthermore, I
cannot believe that the United States, with values as high as we have, we would stand for
this in our supply chain.
I think we should fight for foreign workers to keep those jobs under fair wage and normal

hour conditions, rather than get those jobs back in the US. In the developing world those
jobs are often all they have, or starvation. And we don't want that Judas money paying
for our healthcare and public universities. That will come back to bite us one day. What
we need are sophisticated jobs that suit our interests, jobs which we find meaningful, that
play a real role in a cooperative market world wide that can really fetch some cabbage.
We need jobs that serve the real needs of consumers to the depth, quality and duration
necessary and get paid properly for it.
For all the hoopla about defending freedom and getting killed or maimed in the military in
the developing world (or murdering a whole bunch of people) to defend a 'corporate
interest' for all of that bullshit and pain people are struggling day in and day out to
keep a job they really don't want. They are jobs such as Food Technicians or Healthcare
Engineers or Computer Analysts jobs that don't really feed their soul but pay a
significant amount of money (except the Food Technician, if there is such a thing). This
really is a form of high end socialism. We really only have a few choices in life, and you
just have to live with that. If we lived meaningful lives at work and home, we would be
obsessed with what we are doing for work and energized by the process. And I think we
need help from Native American elders (remember them?) to help us find meaning in our
lives, and engage in the workforce to find meaning in our work. Meaning is the essence
of our daily existence that has been lost in the last 30-40 years in McComputer world.
We need to employ Native American visionaries to help in colleges and in the workplace
to help us find meaning in our lives, to help us find our soul and explore our true selves.
Competition in the capitalist format feeds on self interest to such an extent that many
people don't slow down enough to think and to love, to care for or enjoy one's family and
community. The arms of the poor become thinner, the worker becomes more alien from
their work. The proletariat, largely without their own means of production, slaves all over
the world while the rich sit back in high skyscrapers. This, essentially, is the root of
fascism, based on simple cliquishness, fueled by competitive capitalism. As a nation,
this leads to the mood of global war as capitalism extends and entrenches itself
worldwide, and becomes a construct in the minds and hearts of everyone.
How could work be a fruitful experience? Factory and field work should always be for
human benefit in harmony with nature, rather than for expanding the market. Business is
a service, not a platform for power. In this I agree with Marx that we need to focus on
commodity for money for commodity (c-m-c), and not the inverse (m-c-m). We need to
take from business and manufacturing what we need and want according to our interests,
in harmony with nature. Manufacturing is a tool for our benefit, and we need to work with
nature, not to control her.
All over the world we need good healthcare (which WHO is working on), a 20 hour work
week (more hours if you want them), fair wages, work with recycled materials in a nontoxic environment, access to free college and/or trade school education (with meaning! ...
with leadership by spiritually and educationally sound people such as Native American
visionaries). 20 hours a week is not only good for us, it is good for the environment and
cuts down on needless consumption, although everyone should still get a fair wage for
the job they do. And please vote for politicians who will really work for peace and good
things!
Regarding menial labor (such as things that need to be done like cleaning the toilets and
the streets), things will fall into place to such an extent that taking part in menial tasks
will be part of the whole picture of fulfilling our path to happiness, even when some of
those tasks include civic duty and volunteerism. What about big projects like bridges and

roads? Likely there are those in the crowd that really like engineering and getting their
hands dirty for big projects. And as that affects so many people to such a great extent,
there is a lot of money in it.
Just as capitalism goes global and becomes increasingly fascist, so the oncoming reaction
from the developing world, especially from Russia and China (combined they have
comparable militaries with the US). Russia and China are presumably the 'red army' that
covers the Earth like 'red ants' in the Hopi prophesy of Purification Day. Of course, all of
this is avoidable if we co-operate and act like responsible adults in the face of starvation,
war, wage slavery, environmental chaos, etc.
The endurance of the wage slave is a sickness that has to be reversed. The capitalist has to learn that you can't
save money by cutting corners harming workers or the environment:
Dream, scream, fainting, menstrual pain, inner splitting of self, workplace defiance, slowdowns,
fighting, running away, and even petition and strike are all points and lines of resident behaviors,
forming a cartography of resistance that will inevitably direct a challenge to power and control. 30
On to environmental issues
Annie Leonard says in The Story of Stuff that every time we consume, we pump out CO2
in the atmosphere. It is that simple. Furthermore, we cause vast amounts of toxic
pollution we never see, as it is manufactured in the developing world. Leonard makes
these suggestions:

reducing consumption and discards

reusing discards
extended producer responsibility
comprehensive recycling
comprehensive composting or biodigestion of organic materials
citizen participation
a ban on waste incineration
improving product design upstream design upstream to eliminate toxics and
instead design for durability and repair
effective policies, regulations, incentives, and financing structures to support these
systems 31

In The Story of Stuff, Annie Leonard spells out in her first five chapters the
environmental and humanitarian impact of consumerism from extraction,
production, distribution, consumption to disposal. It is too much to discuss the
entirety of her discussion in this document, but to sum up, nearly everything we
consume, whether it be trees or t-shirts or hamburgers or coal, it is damaging in
the extreme to both the environment of the developing world and her people, and
ultimately to the global environment. The goal? Zero waste, 100% non-toxic
materials in production (including recycling) while maintaining regulations on
working hours, wages and conditions, as well as environmental standards.
GoodGuide is a great place to stake your claim in this process:
http://www.goodguide.com

We need regulators and scientists who are working for the well-being of people, not for
the specific industries. And we need laws and agencies that understand and reflect the
complexity of the planet, including the natural environment, the built environment,
communities, workers, kids, mothers-the whole package. 32
Also, you will want to check out Arcadia Power to get your homes energy source from
wind, not oil which is involved with war, pollution, dumping, toxic air/water/soil pollutants
etc. http://www.arcadiapower.com
I want to say something about the fossil fuel industry. There are so many problems with
it, it is hard to know where to start. The main point is that big oil and big coal would
gladly switch to renewable energy, except that the rest of the world would stay with fossil
fuels, and they would be outcompeted and America would become a third world country.
I am fairly sure that is the private argument. Meanwhile, we have mountaintop removal,
mining tailings, factory river dumpings, climate change, air/water/soil pollution, mining
accidents, farm dependence on petroleum fertilizers, fracking, pipeline and offshore spills,
cause for war, irregular prices... the list goes on and on. From a moral point of view, it is
crazy to continue with (peak) fossil fuels. Yet with market competition, like lemmings, big
oil and coal will never stop until the last drop is extracted from the ground. Already,
global climate change is past environmental and human markers for turning back. One
important fact about climate change is the if temperatures reach 104 degrees F,
photosynthesis stops working. We cannot eat or breathe without plants. We are in
trouble.
Let's look at some history with Pakistan with Lester Brown, World on the Edge:
Some 2 million homes were damaged or destroyed [by the floods]. More than 20
million people were affected by the flooding. Nearly 2,000 Pakistanis died. Some 6
million acres of crops were damaged or destroyed. Over a million livestock
drowned. Roads and bridges washed away. 33
Temperatures reached 128 deg F, the Himalayan glaciers were melting, and the original
forests were gone. There was a perfect storm for this massive flooding. This is the effect
the developing world has to deal with, as we emit greenhouse gases in excess.
We are liquidating the earth's natural assets to fuel our consumption. Half of us
live in countries where water tables are falling off and wells are going dry. Soil
erosion exceeds soil formation on one third of the world's ever-growing herds of
cattle, sheep, and goats are converting vast stretches of grassland to desert.
Forests are shrinking by 13 million acres per year as we clear land for agriculture
and cut trees for lumber and paper. Four fifths of oceanic fisheries are being fished
at capacity or overfished and headed for collapse. In system after system,
demand is overshooting supply [italics mine].
Furthermore this has racist undertones around the world...
...environmental racism-that is, the placement of the most toxic facilities in communities of
color, zoning and other practices or policies that result in disproportionate burdens being placed
on communities of color, and the exclusion of people from these communities from
environmental planning and decision making.34

Lester Brown suggests the following strategy: Plan B... has four components: cutting net
carbon dioxide emissions 80 percent by 2020, stabilizing population at 8 billion or lower,
eradicating poverty, and restoring the earth's natural systems, including its soils,
aquifers, forests, grasslands, and fisheries. The ambitiousness of this plan is not driven
by perceived political feasibility but by scientific reality. These strategies (Evehema,
Leonard, Brown) are good, solid strategies to follow.
Here is some good news, leadership amidst this chaos:
Now the Rosebud Sioux are joining forces with six other South Dakota Sioux tribes
to form a single tribal utility authority and install 1 gigawatt of wind power on their
land. Since the project will be financed by bonds instead of private equity, the
tribes will own the turbines and realize the full benefits of energy sales to
customers outside the reservations. A statement from the seven tribes noted, All
of our Tribes suffer from an unacceptable level of poverty and joblessness... The
development of utility-scale wind power, supplemented with hydropower, will
enable us to provide for the well being of our people by generating sustainable
economic and community development, jobs, and training opportunities in a way
that is consistent with our cherished beliefs, traditional ways of life, and rich
cultural traditions.
Likewise, the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma, along with four other tribes, is
constructing a 90-turbine 153-megawatt wind farm estimated to generate $16
million in revenue for the tribes over the next 20 years. 35
--Before the DAY is over, an Indigenous homeland will be clear-cut, strip-mined, or flooded
by a dam. Before the WEEK is over, an Indigenous person will be killed or displaced,
because economic interests or simply because he or she has a different culture. Before
the YEAR is over, dozens of languages could disappear forever, taking with them ancient
worldviews and a priceless record of earth's biodiversity. 36
...certain peoples became marginalized and discriminated against because their language, their
religion, their culture and their whole way of life were different, and perceived by the dominant
society as being inferior. Insisting on their right to self-determination is indigenous peoples'
way of overcoming these obstacles. Today many indigenous peoples are still excluded from
society and often deprived of their rights as equal citizens of a state. 37
Furthermore:
The organization Minority Rights Group International (MRG) says minorities are 'often among
the poorest and most marginalized groups in society. They may lack access to political power
and frequently have development policies imposed on them'. 38
How have first nations been treated, now that the work world affects everyone? We
hardly hear about any of this, and in twenty years the reality can be very shocking. We
must stand up against corporate power before they destroy the lands of the native people
worldwide.
Around the world we see how first peoples have been treated by whites:

forced assimilation of indigenous peoples into national society

forced urbanization and resettlement schemes

forced removals and relocations

national development projects created at indigenous peoples' expense, for
example building highways and hydroelectric projects, or allowing such things as
mining, oilfields and commercial hunting on indigenous landfill
promoting strong ethnic groups over weaker ones
supporting men and ignoring women
ignoring children's rights
giving control of wildlife and 'conservation' to Western-driven bodies
introducing inappropriate technology
forcing religious, political or other alien ideologies upon people 39

The following excerpt still needs to be addressed in the United States. The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) needs
to allow Native American families to choose whether or not their child should grow up learning a standard US
('white') education or be allowed to stay at home and learn Native American teaching in the 10,000 year old
traditions of Native American people. Remember, this is their land, these people, white people and all other nonNative Americans are immigrants here. They should be allowed to make any decision they want to make for
their own well being. They must have this choice.
In some countries, such as the US, Canada and Australia, aggressive attempts were made to
assimilate indigenous peoples into the dominant society. Children were forcibly taken from
their parents and sent either to white foster homes and adoptive parents or government-run
boarding schools. The aim was to wipe out their culture, and make them act like whites.
Children were beaten for speaking their own language, forced to wear European clothes and
taught that European culture was superior.40
Bigotry of native people and nomads of color stretches back centuries:
The earliest, self-styled anthropologists were often colonial administrators who studied local
customs and languages as a hobby. They set about classifying the races of the new colonies.
People were pigeon-holed according to how 'savage' they seemed, on a sliding scale from
civilized to savage human being. Darwinism and the theory of natural selection were popular
new ideas, and influenced how non-Western people were categorized. These classifications
have stuck to people ever since- in Africa and other parts of the world today, some nonindigenous people still look down on indigenous peoples as a lower form of life. 41
The idea that people that till the soil are more civilized than others is an ancient one, linked to
the idea that settled people can make permanent improvements in their lives, both physical and
intellectual.
Prejudice against nomads is very deep-seated. People who wander about have been
dismissed for centuries as aimless, uncivilized, uncontrolled and therefore a threat to the state,
greedy for more land than they actually need or use. 42
Indigenous people all over the world (including Europe!), have had problems with big business wanting mineral
rights on their land, displacing people from their homes since antiquity. This is killing the soul of the people and
the Earth. The Ogoni are the 'macrocosm' of the Hopi 'microcosm of the world' that
happens all over the world every day.
By 1990 the Ogoni objected to Shell Nigeria's oil-related activities in their
traditional territory mainly on four grounds, namely that their land and water
resources had been polluted by numerous oil spills over the course of thirtyeight years; that these oil spills resulted from outdated equipment which
broke down during the production process on a regular basis; that gas flaring

polluted the air, posed a major health risk and was an inconvenience to oilproducing communities, and that Shell Nigeria did not initiate enough
development projects in Ogoniland, which region remained underdeveloped
and poor when compared with non-oil-producing communities in other parts
of Nigeria.43
Gas flaring is a symbol of colonial oppression..
Because gas flaring was standard practice at Shell Nigeria's oil production
sites in Ogoniland the local inhabitants in this densely populated territory
were subjected, on a daily basis, to 24 hours of gas flaring prior to Shell
Nigeria's withdrawl from the territory in January 1993. This practice exposed
both the Ogoni and their natural environment to thermal air, water, and soil
pollution, the destruction of vegetation and wildlife, damage to
infrastructures by acid rain, and damage to soil, crops, and vegetation by
the severe heat and deposition of contaminants. The oil-producing villages
in Ogoinland were further exposed to sever heat, noise, and fumes which
constituted serious health risks, and the discomfort of 24 hours of synthetic,
bright, orange light.44
Giant industries, hydroelectric dams and mining operations have displaced thousands of
indigenous peoples from their land. Their knowledge is 'ripped off' in the name of scientific
advancement.45
You can own a hat or a bicycle or a house but you cannot own a wild animal or plants or land or water or air.
These belong to the whole community...
The idea that land can be privately owned is usually anathema to indigenous peoples. They see
it and other resources like water, plants and wild animals as something belonging to the
whole community. You have to share it. You do not grab more than your fair share. You do not
plunder everything in sight without putting something back. And you cannot buy and sell it, as
Crowfoot, a Blackfoot Native American chief, tried to explain to white Americans It was put
here for us by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not belong to us. 46
Businesses search for their most advantageous position often at the expense of the most vulnerable...
...companies now roam the globe looking for new resources to exploit. States, also driven by the
profit motive, are eager to exploit resources they once saw as marginal and uneconomic.
Expanding populations, the discovery of minerals and oil, the growth of modern
communications and other factors have now ended the isolation of even the most remote
indigenous groups. Indigenous lands are threatened by agriculture, roads, dams, irrigation
projects, mines, oil extraction, and timber logging. There are also many cases of pastoralists
being evicted from their grazing lands to make way for wildlife parks. 47
The indigenous are left behind, forgotten about...
Forced urbanization has brought countless problems. Indigenous peoples are often the
poorest, with the worst health, housing, schooling and job opportunities. They suffer high rates
of depression and other mental health problems, suicide and substance abuse. Sometimes they
are denied access to health services, welfare and schooling altogether. Where state schooling is
offered, it may be used by governments as a tool for assimilation in a bid to replace indigenous
languages and culture with dominant, national ones. 48
The Yanomani experience is a devastating example.

Yanomani are rainforest people, living deep in the Amazon near the border with Venezuela.
They had little contact with the outside world before the 1980s, when a gold rush prompted
thousands of miners to invade their territory. This exposed them to killer diseases to which they
were not immune, and to violence from miners and settlers. One fifth of the Yanomani were
killed by disease and violence in just seven years during the 1990s. The roar of supply planes
and the constant noise of generators and pumps used in mining scared away many of the game
animals they hunted. High-pressure hoses washed away river banks, silting up the rivers and
destroying spawning grounds. Mercury, used to separate gold from soil and rock, has been
dumped in rivers and poisoned people's food and water. The influx of miners has caused social
upheaval that has lead to a rash of begging, prostitution and drunkenness. 49
And the dynamic between missionaries and the native tribespeople is summed up
beautifully here:
Only 200,000 Indians remain in Brazil from an original population estimated at four
million. More than one tribe per year has disappeared in the past 75 years. People
may assume that the missing tribes have been absorbed into society, but this is
not the case. Many of these distinct tribes are now extinct.
Here is what a mission publication has said is the solution to this cultural
extinction:
The divide and rule cultures of colonialism have often driven wedges of
prejudice between indigenous peoples and working class settlers; 50
The missionary can bring disease, disruption and brainwashing to the native tribe:
What then, can halt the march of tribal cultures toward extinction? Land grants and
secular welfare programs may help on a physical level, but the greatest danger to
tribal people is one that such programs cannot touch. The greatest danger is the
breakdown of the aboriginals sense of right relationship with the supernatural.
Every aboriginal culture acknowledges the supernatural and has strict procedures
for staying right with it.
When arrogant outsiders ridicule a tribes beliefsor shatter its mechanisms for
staying rightsevere disorientation sets in. Believing they are cursed for
abandoning the old ways, tribes people become morose and apathetic. Believing
they are doomed to die as a people, they act out a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Materialistic social workers and scientists cant help these people. The tribes
people can sense even an unspoken denial of the supernatural, and it causes them
to grow further depressed.
Who then can best serve such people as spiritual ombudsmen? None other than
the once popular myth has maligned as their number one enemythe Bibleguided, Christ-honoring missionary.51
Homeless people are among the vulnerable, around the world. Imagine having a chronic
disability in the developing world.
Homeless people on the street are also the most feared and least identified
with: people who die ignominious deaths in trash compactors, who freeze
outside the doors of hospitals, and who have been burned alive while
sleeping on park benches. They are the most hated of homeless people;
loathed for their destitution, their apparent inability to provide for
themselves, and for the conflicting array of emotions they evoke in

passersby.52
Mr. Evehema lists a number of things we can work on to help the situation. Make peace
our goal. Learn to love the unlovable. Stand together. Stabilize the world's population.
Protect aboriginal life. Preserve wildlife. Ready ourselves for what is coming. Reverse soil
erosion. Reverse deforestation. Reverse ozone depletion. Stop acid rain. Stop global
warming. Stop pollution. Provide clean and abundant water. Increase renewable energy.
Eliminate starvation and malnourishment. Provide adequate health care. Eliminate
inadequate housing and homelessness. Eliminate illiteracy. Increase world efficiency.
Decrease crime and violence.53
You can look up the above concerns in Wikipedia https://www.wikipedia.org and find good
descriptions of these individual problems, and in Charity Navigator
http://www.charitynavigator.org there are a number of aid organizations working on
these topics that you can give charity to and offer volunteer time in some capacity,
perhaps via the Internet.
This cuts to the core of the problem for the native person. Not only does the missionary
brainwash the native with the Bible, and thus take away her or his wisdom, but actually
(this could not be more ironic or more of a travesty) the missionary takes away ones'
understanding of Spirit. What is important to fathom here is that the missionary does
not have the tribal understanding of Spirit. The missionary might have a vague
understanding of love, perhaps vaguely tested, but nothing like the visceral and raw taste
of a supernatural power that feeds, protects, clothes and brings about a mate and a
family in a dangerous part of the Amazon jungle. That supernatural understanding is as
raw, complex and as loving as it gets, and missionaries need to understand this. I
personally think what the Gospels say are important (and the Gospels in particular) but
what the missionary is really there for is to learn about Spirit in this highly sophisticated
tribal understanding, and bring back this message to the congregation, the home
congregation, so that we can grow. The missionary may have a few tidbits to share, but a
vast amount to learn.
You see, when Christ was talking to the crowds, he had tribal societies in mind. Does the
bird wonder about its next meal? Ye of little faith? The tribal society are his faithful flock.
They must know love or they will all die. They don't know anything about competitive
capitalism! They cooperate, period! They have to know a lot of other things, too, that is
for sure, as much as we need to know about our lives. But in many cases in tribal life, the
tribespeople are the embodiment of Christ's flock. Caring for the sick and poor, faith
healing and common herbal medicine, a system of laws based on Spirit's law (not man's
law) love at the core of family beliefs, etc. Meanwhile, white congregants are often selfindulgent sycophants to the power structure and barely believe the very Good Book they
espouse the most. Many whites go through life going to church on Sunday, pillaging the
developing world at work Mon-Fri, party Friday and Saturday night, and do it all again.
Americans, whether they read the Bible or not, are mostly the Sadducees and Pharisees
of the day. This is simply because it is not what you say you believe, but with what
actions you believe. If you live in this lush market economy based on Asian/Central
American wage slavery, you can hardly call yourself a holy person. At most, in the Lord's
eyes, you are gettin' by! But Jesus Christ was a righteous man, most holy. I just hope we
can end these awful times for other people and for our precious Earth, steadily. By
outlining the problems we can address these issues. Remember, we are entering a
different time. We are no longer in the 50's when all was bright and new, or the 60's
when things were fast and loose. It is time to slim down, do all you can to address these
issues and whatever is on your conscience as best you can, and prepare for what is to

come next. Hopefully that will be world peace.

--And, of course, as Dan Evehema says we all need to avoid crime. This will become easier
as the standard of living rises and as marijuana is legalized, there is a direct correlation to
crime reduction as these standards change. This should happen across the Earth over
time. The concern here is, can it happen without destroying the environment in terms of
a burgeoning middle class economy worldwide?
--I would like to take a moment to add that in Hotevilla the traditional Hopi mention at
least three times that regardless of what happens, a sister and brother will survive to
carry on the human race. Presumably these siblings are not only survivors, but very
important people. Noah characters? Messiah figures? They don't say. However, with all
the chaos of religion, politics, economy, native lives and the environment getting all
mixed up worldwide, it certainly would be timely to listen to a sister and brother that
really could illuminate us all. It would be a vast relief and just cause to cease fire in war,
as this jeopardizes our common chances of survival to potentially harm the messiah(s)
and us, of course!
Here is my own experience regarding miracles. When a person is confronted with a
mishap in front of them, or a friend or family member needs help, it is up to that person
to respond. There are many ways to help, including getting more help, but that initial
response is in itself a miracle. I don't know how else to explain this, but Spirit loves it
when we respond to those in need, because no one else can. Yahweh can't do it. Krishna
can't do it. Masaaw can't do it. Only you can. Furthermore, later, when we need help,
miraculously, someone is there to help us. That is just my experience of the world,
karma. So, I encourage you, when you are working, or at home, look out for one another
and take the time to help.
The Hopi know their chakra system which allows them to know prophesy and other
esoteric phenomenon. The chakras are not a mystery; we all have them. They are
simply the nerve plexi and glands along the spine that open to the spirit within. You can
take Qi Gong (which I suggest rather than meditation for the beginner because it is based
on movement rather than stillness) and over time you will experience your own chakra
system. Eventually you will experience your own intuition and more esoteric experience
of the spiritual world. I have been meditating for twenty years and my spiritual life is
quite active.
--If we start out in pursuit of meaning, preferably listening to the Spirit via our 7th chakra,
we will both be fulfilled (Maslow's hierarchy of needs/chakra fulfillment) and serve the
demand on goods and services in a holistic and responsible way, and a way that is more
pleasing to the consumer and the greater plan of the Earth. Furthermore, our free time
will likely be filled with joy and meaning. Presumably, we will be serving Spirit, humanity
and the environment in so doing. The Hopi, Tibetans, Buddhists, Hindus and Jews have
been doing this for thousands of years, and thousands of years to come. There is no
greater guide than the Spirit, no greater barter than one from the heart. I would like to
add that Native Americans have for centuries noted that the European addiction to
'things' is the core of the problem. When the last tree is cut down, the last fish is eaten,

and the last stream poisoned, you will realize that you cannot eat money, as the Native
American saying goes. And capitalist consumption will never be able to think 7
generations into the future for all products. I think Annie Leonard covered that well. The
only answer to our plight, as I see it, is to live in a tipi (or other simple dwelling that suits
you) and live off of the land. I think modern medicine will always be with us, but the
trinkets that come out of the engineering lab, all the goodies, will have to stay in the lab
for us to survive in peace. I have never heard an activist, a white person of any kind,
have the courage to say that. And I wouldn't if I didn't believe it is true. But I think it is
correct. Essentially, for humanity to move forward, we need to live close to the Earth. No
TV, no video games, no computers, no heating and cooling, no plumbing, no SUV or cars,
no multinational corporations, none of that. No books, but maybe a central library in
each village. Just living on the land in peace, with each other. That is a future that I
could see making it. Maybe I am wrong, maybe the Earth can sustain more excesses
than that, like high speed rail and a modest middle class existence. I have no idea. But
Native Americans over the centuries have made a heck of a point that capitalism and its
failings would never make it, we need to live simply, and now we are confronted with that
fact. It is time now to truly take stock of the 'system' that actually isn't a system, but an
organic process that is at the end of running its course.
Before the Bahannas' arrival it was foretold that one day, if we [Hopi] are
fortunate, we will meet up with another race of people who will respectfully
request the use of the land and who will accept our rules concerning the
land without question. But if we are unfortunate, we will meet up with the
wrong people. We will encounter many pitfalls, and once we are caught in
them, we will be cursed forever. 54
Indeed, the white people that came, came for selfish reasons and brought war, servitude
and environmental destruction in search of gold at first, and now in search of everything
else. So, unless things change...
...the whole world will shake and turn red and turn against the people who are
hindering the Hopi cultural life. To all these people Purification Day will come.
Humble people will run to him in search of a new world, an the equality that has
been denied them. He will come unmercifully. His people will cover the Earth like
red ants we must stay in our houses. The wicked will be beheaded and will
speak no more. This will be the Purification for all righteous people, the Earth, and
all living things on Earth. The ills of the Earth will be cured. Mother and Earth will
bloom again and all people will unite into peace and harmony for a long time to
come.55
Does Russia and China (the red army of Purification Day) have the military to pull this off?
Yes.
The PLA is the world's largest military force, with a strength of approximately 2,285,000
personnel, 0.18% of the country's population.Mostly engineers and logistical units, as well as
military police, and members of the paramilitary People's Armed Police have been sent to
peacekeeping operations in Lebanon,[11] the Republic of the Congo,[12] Sudan,[13] Ivory Coast,[14]
Haiti,[15] and more recently, Mali and South Sudan.56
The Chinese seems to prefer peace, except in their territory such as Taiwan, Hong Kong,
Tibet, etc.
The U.S. military is the largest military in the world in terms of number of personnel. It draws

its manpower from a large pool of paid volunteers; although conscription has been used in the
past in various times of both war and peace, it has not been used since 1972. As of 2016, the
United States spends about $580.3 billion annually to fund its military forces and Overseas
Contingency Operations.[4] Put together, the United States constitutes roughly 39 percent of the
world's military expenditures. For the period 201014, the Stockholm International Peace
Research Institute (SIPRI) found that the United States was the world's largest exporter of major
arms, accounting for 31 per cent of global shares. The United States was also the world's eighth
largest importer of major weapons for the same period. [7] The U.S. Armed Forces has significant
capabilities in both defense and power projection due to its large budget, resulting in advanced
and powerful equipment, and its widespread deployment of force around the world, including
about 800 military bases in foreign locations.57
The United States has the world's largest military budget. In the fiscal year 2016, $580.3 billion
in funding were enacted for the Department of Defense (DoD) and for "Overseas Contingency
Operations" in the War on Terrorism. [4] Outside of direct DoD spending, the United States
spends another $218 to $262 billion each year on other defense-related programs, such as
Veterans Affairs, Homeland Security, nuclear weapons maintenance, and the State Department. 58
The U.S. military is the world's second largest, after China's People's Liberation Army, and has
troops deployed around the globe.59
US military spending 2015: $597.5 billions
Chinese
$145.8
Russian
$51.660
And so,
The spiritual door remains open. Why not join the righteous people who are
moving toward it?61
...the fact is that an end and a new beginning will come. All we can do is slow
down the coming and do what we can to lessen the pain of the experience. We can
get ourselves and the earth ready for it, and keep the earth enough in balance to
survive and begin anew.62
Thus the Hopi have led us to the conclusion both metaphorically and empirically that
WWIII is a direction that we are headed in. We have a choice, to listen to wisdom or to
succumb to the wiles of money, arrogance and the world of things that which does not
matter. Let us follow a path that makes a difference, toward world peace.
What about meaning in work? If work had meaning, would we be less materialistic and
avoid the fate of WWIII?
If I do something [like work] of my free volition because I deem it to be
purposeful then I usually do it gladly. I devote myself to it with all my energy
and undivided attention.63
Meaning is an incredibly important concept here. I think if you spoke to the average
college senior about meaning in the college setting, she would quote something from a
philosophy seminar. Meaning is all it is about. It comes from the heart. It is why we
exist. Without it, we are just going through the motions. My meaning, if I were to take a
stab at it, is to help as many people as possible live a better existence in this brutally
awful time in world history. I am talking about the poorest of the poor in America, and the

poor in the developing world. By some crazy luck and genius I figured out how to do both
of those, and I feel successful, and thus I feel a sense of meaning. I also have a sense of
meaning derived from being a family member and being part of friendships. I feel woven
in to the fabric of peoples lives. Meaning comes from the deepest love of your heart, and
the vision that comes from it to help others with your passion. From meaningful work
comes cooperation, and hopefully a deep care for the environment and love and respect
for other people generally.
And yet, I would like to feel more meaningful. I try to keep my 7 chakra open. At times
in my life there has been so much meaning I had to cry. At other times I screwed up so
badly I had to clench. Over and over again. But you get back up and keep trying. How
do you know if you are on the right track? I know I am because I can feel it in my chakra
system. My intuition tells me. Thoughts move through my mind at a rapid rate. I can
quickly look up questions on the computer and my interest in a topic escalates. I feel a
tingle down my spine after finding an interesting answer.
th

Deep meaning comes few times, deep within your soul (the area within your breast bone,
your heart chakra your deep yearning or deepest desires in life are held here). When
that area cries out, you have to listen to it. That is real meaning, and everyone has it.
You don't have to go to Qi Gong class to get this one. You will probably feel this one 2-3
times really deeply in your life, maybe a little more often that that if you are lucky. It
means that you have to pay attention to your thoughts and dreams over the next little
while. Your life doesn't have to change, but you will. This is a time when your soul is
trying to fulfill itself in life, and it needs you to do some things to answer its cravings. Try
not to upheave your life in so doing, but carefully do what you need to do. This is, in
short, meaning in your life.
Felber suggest seven areas for teaching children for a better society:

Understanding Feelings: Here children would gain the experience of perceiving

feelings, taking them seriously, not being ashamed of them, talking about them,
and regulating them consciously.
Understanding Values: [understanding values such as competition v. cooperation
and religious values, and their meaning]
Nonviolent Communication: how to listen, heed others, take them seriously and
discuss matters objectively without resorting to personal insult or value
judgements.
Understanding Democracy
Understanding and Experiencing Nature: Healing can consist of re-embracing
relationships, nurturing them and bringing them into equilibrium, which is a reliable
path to happiness.
Crafts: Fashioning useful things oneself creates meaning, and making gifts makes
people happy.
Sensitizing the Body: [such as games and acrobatics as a child and massage,
energy work as an adult]64

The vision quest is an important part of the experience in America. Similar to the
Australian outback, a vision quest drains you of your frivolous thoughts and state of
being, and helps you go to the core of your being. One goes deep into your soul, a deep
understanding of self and meaning that leaves you with strength, clarity and lessons to
draw on for life. I have not been through a vision quest with a Native American officially,
but in my adventures on the road I think I have approximated the experience.

...the American Indian vision quest, during which the seeker goes into the wilderness alone to
fast, to receive a spirit guide and a secret name, not only provides us with a prototype of the
revelatory experience and the means of obtaining medicine power, but it may provide us with
the peculiar mystical experience that is most efficacious for our hemisphere. 65

The most essential elements of medicine power are (bullets mine):

The vision quest, with its emphasis on self-denial and spiritual discipline, extended to a lifelong pursuit
of wisdom of body and soul.
A reliance upon one's personal visions and dreams to provide one's direction on the path of life.
A search for personal songs to enable one to attune oneself to the primal sound, the cosmic vibration of
the Great Spirit.
A belief in a total partnership with the world of spirits and the ability to make personal contact with
grandfathers and grandmothers who have changed planes of existence.
The possession of a non-linear time sense.
A receptivity to the evidence that the essence of the Great Spirit may be found in everything.
A reverence and a passion for the Earth Mother, the awareness of one's place in the
web of life, and one's responsibility toward all plant and animal life. 66

Allow yourself to feel love. If you feel love, regardless of what is going on around you,
you can be sure that you are being true. You are doing the best that you can do. If
people around you are being belligerent, angry, hostile they will make mistakes and
those mistakes will be an opening for you to communicate with them clearly how they are
hurting you or others or themselves! But continue to feel love in your heart, that is
very important. They will come around to feel love, too, and at that point you will be able
to make an honest and just commitment to one another out of love and peace rather
than hostility. The overwhelming feeling of gratitude that you both came to a sane
conclusion will be gratifying to you both and you will find you found a friend.
Thank you for your interest. WWIII can be avoided. We know what the problems are, so
we can focus on change for a better world. If you are a business or political group I
encourage you to utilize this information in your work for peace. If you are a citizen, I
encourage you to share this with friends and family, and write letters to your
Congressperson if they will listen.
[The traditional Hopi] say our life is one great play or drama in which we all take
our part when our turn comes. We are all actors. We are all given different tasks
to perform which will either bring benefits and good things, or will produce evil
things.67
And so I urge you,
If you have a way to spread the truth through newspapers, radio, books, or through
meetings with powerful people, tell the truth! Tell them what you have seen here;
what you have heard us say; what you have seen here with your own eyes. In this
way, if we do fall, let it be said that we at least tried, right up to the end, to hold
fast to the Path of Peace as we were originally instructed to do by the Great Spirit. 68
At a couple of points in my life I have hitchhiked a total of about 5,000 miles across 'Indian Country' (Montana
and south) and the west coast. I have probably got in a total strangers car 150 times. I have never had a 'bad'
ride, and I would say that 1/3 of my rides were with born-again Christians. This is a true testament to the
trueness of real Christianity of America. Ordinary people in this nation are ready to walk their talk, when no one

but Spirit is looking, and I pray and know in my heart that the favor is returned when they need it. The miracles
abounded. At one point a Christian ran across four lanes of traffic to give me a plastic bottle of water. An
African-American man gave me all the cash in his wallet once, over-the-top compassionate. An Asian Christian
bought me dinner, his act of Christianity. A Native American Christian gave me a ride and spoke of his
philosophy. One young Christian ran across the road to give me $5 for lunch. For all the bs in Christianity,
there is real heart in this country, and there are really moved people. I have full faith that the population of the
US has the heart to change the outcome of the Hopi prophesy of WWIII by addressing the root causes of it. We
are good people, we are smart, and when we work together we are able. We work hard to do good things,
regardless of religion. I have faith that our mass of good can overcome the blunt evil of the US militaryindustrial complex.
I do want to add that I am a Christian, but I see the world with a broader brush than that. In my spirituality, I
have a strong faith with Jesus the Christ, Yeshua. However, another face of Spirit that I have a relationship with
is Aradia, and Pan, of the European legends. Aradia is the spirit of magic, Pan the Horned spirit. Also, I have
been meditating for 20 years, and I trust my relationship with, simply, Spirit as I always have.
This is an important thing to say. I grew up Catholic. There is a world of developing world people who love
deeply, who have different understandings of One Spirit and/or the many faces and emotional understandings of
Spirit. There are many people who are benign atheists, generally speaking, and nice people. It is important for
the stabilizing of the populations of the Earth for us to accept one another and, unless direct bodily harm is
pending, to live and let live. Love is something we can all share, and most religions in the world accept the
basic love between mother and child as a holy bond that is the foundation of any community. You don't have to
like another person's religious beliefs, but it is the height of arrogance to try to proselytize and force your
understanding of religion on others' beliefs. We are all learning, and it is wise to ask others what they have
learned, not assume that the rest of the world is a bunch of idiots. We are all just beginners in spirituality and
religion right now, and it is clear given the political mayhem outlined above that we could use all the wisdom we
can get. And no, it is firmly proven that every answer under the sun will not be found in the Good Book. You
have to keep on looking, although the Good Book is a very good start. I think of the Bible as a platform for
other religions and wisdom from the world. Once you get love, you start learning a lot!
Keep deception and lies far away from me,
and give me neither poverty nor wealth.
Feed me with food that I need for today69
Protect land and life, as the Hopi do. Act as the Spirit moves you, in the immortal words
of Mr. Dan Evehema.
