Controlled population release vs destructive population explosion

-
Compare a nuclear explosion to a controlled nuclear reaction. The earlier (the explosion) is a useless -- and destructive -- release of energy, whereas the latter (the reaction) represents energy that can be channel for productive purposes.

Philippine population is the equivalent of a destructive explosion -- an explosion of useless proto-humans who cannot prosper their way out of a paperbag. The key is to implement a similar controlled release of human capital -- so that it can be nurtured (through proper upbringing, nutrition, and education) and turned into productive elements of the national economy.

At the moment each new Filipino baby born represents a liability to the national economy and not the asset that it ideally should be.

Remembering the 1986 Edsa "revolution"

-

I was a teenager in 1986 when the first Edsa "Revolution" erupted. The sound of this "eruption" for me was the murmer of a crowd queueing at a fishball stand or playing pusoy dos with their pals on a sidewalk while smoking Marlboro "Blue Seals". An anticlimactic account, yes, but the thing about the first Edsa "revolution" was that it came together spontaneously as ordinary people milled rather than massed into Edsa as what was to become the seminal event emerged from the collective stand . Indeed, back then the stand was clear, the phenomenon was emergent , and the sponteneity was very evident. That phenomenal nature underpinned by such clarity cannot be replicated -- specially if the attempt is engineered by people with top-down agendas (as what's happened since). For the first Edsa revolution was, at its most fundamental, a bottom-up movement.

Danilo Lim and Antonio Trillanes deserve to rot in jail

The whole evaluation being made around whether Antonio Trillanes, Danilo Lim and their band of morons deserve to be granted amnesty misses the whole point. The whole point is in how they, with reckless impunity, endangered civilian life using weapons that were entrusted to them by the state. Perhaps it makes it easy for people like "Father" Joaquin Bernas to see this now as just a question of what the intent was and how much remorse is being expressed today, because no one was hurt or killed ...

A fine specimen of an apologist ranting on behalf of Noynoy Aquino's 2011 SONA

-

Poor Manuel Buencamino. The title of his latest article on ProPinoy.net alone already sufficiently describes the sort of attitude that apologists of Philippine President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III tend to take. In " A clear message. Period ", Buencamino makes his appeal to the public on how they should regard Noynoy's recently concluded State of the Nation Address (SONA) delivered to joint sessions of Congress -- the message is clear, basta it is! End of conversation, right gramps?

Noynoy Aquino spared himself embarrassing comparisons with other world leaders

Time to give a bit of credit to beleaguered President-Elect Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III . By pompously declaring a policy of "frugality" that will see him "delegating" much of the required foreign travel of his government to his underlings, the man exhibited the "foresight" to play down any expectations of him having to meet face-to-face with stalwarts of global statesmanship early in his campaign. Imagine him standing side-by-side with the likes of the current Chancellor of Germany who is described by commentor Hyden Toro as such:
