A great mind said that individualism is a part of being a human being. When the day comes that the mind and body can be separated, what will happen to the soul? No civilization spreads without conflict. Second Wave civilization soon launched a massive attack on the First Wave World, triumphed, and imposed its will on millions, ultimately billions, of human beings. Long before the Second Wave, of course, from the sixteenth century on, European rulers had already begun to build extensive colonial empires. Spanish priests and conquistadors, French trappers, British, Dutch, and Portuguese or Italian adventurers fanned out across the globe, enslaving or decimating whole populations, claiming control of vast lands, and sending tribute home to their monarchs. Compared with what was to follow, however, all this was insignificant. For the treasure these early adventurer and conquerors sent home was, in effect, private booty It financed wars and personal opulence—winter palaces, colourful pageantry, a leisurely workless lifestyle for the court. However, it had little to do with the still basically self-sufficient economy of the colonizing country. Largely outside the money system and the market economy, the serf who scraped a bare living from the sunbaked soil of Spain or the misty heaths of England had little or nothing to export abroad. They scarcely grew enough for local consumption. Nor did they depend on raw materials stolen or purchased in other countries. For them life went on, one way or another. The fruits of overseas conquest enriched the ruling class and the towns rather than the mass of ordinary people who lived as peasant. In this sense, First Wave imperialism was still petty—not yet integrated into economy. #RandolphHarris 1 of 19

The Second Wave transformed this relatively small-scale pilferage into big business. It transformed Petty Imperialism into Grand Imperialism. Here was a new imperialism aimed not at bringing back a few trunkloads of gold or emeralds, spices and silks. Here was an imperialism that ultimately brought back shipload after shipload of nitrates, cotton, palm oil, tin, rubber, bauxite, and tungsten. Here was an imperialism that dug copper mines in the Congo and planted oils rigs in Arabia. Here was an imperialism that sucked in raw material from the colonies, processed them, and very often spewed the finished manufactured goods back into the colonies at huge profit. Here, in short, was imperialism no longer peripheral but so integrated into the basic economic structure of the industrial nation that the jobs of millions of ordinary workers came to depend on it. And not just jobs. In addition to new raw materials, Europe also needed increasing amounts of food. As Second Wave nations turned to manufacturing, transferring rural labour into the factories, they were forced to import more of their foodstuffs from abroad—beef, mutton, grain, coffee, tea, and sugar from India, from China, from Africa, from the West Indies and Central America. In turn, mass manufacturing grew, the new industrial elite needed bigger markets and fresh outlets for investment. In the 1880’s and 1890’s European statesmen were unabashedly open about their objectives. “Empire is commerce,” proclaimed the British politician Joseph Chamberlain. The French premier Jules Ferry was even more explicit: What France needed, he declared, were “outlets for our industries, exports, and capital.” #RandolphHarris 2 of 19

Jolted by cycles of boom and bust, faced with chronic unemployment, European leaders were for generations obsessed by the fear that if colonial expansion stopped, unemployment would lead to armed revolution at home. The roots of Grand Imperialism were, however, more than economic. Strategic considerations, religious fervor, idealism, and adventure all played a part, as did racism, with its implicit assumption of European superiority. Many saw imperial conquest as a divine responsibility. Kipling’s phrase, the “White Man’s burden,” summed up the European’s missionary zeal to spread Christianity and “civilization”—meaning, of course, Second Wave civilization. For the colonizers regarded First Wave civilizations, no matter how refined and complex, as backward and underdeveloped. Rural people, especially if they happened to wear dark skins, were supposedly childlike. They were “tricky and dishonest.” They were “shiftless and lazy.” They did not “value life.” Such attitudes made it easier for the Second Wave forces to justify the annihilation of those who stood in their path. In The Social History of the Machine Gun, John Ellis shows how this new, fantastically deadly weapon, perfected in the nineteenth century, was at first systematically employed against “native” populations and not against pale Europeans, since it was considered unsportsmanlike to kill an equal with it. Shooting colonials, however, was thought to be more like a hunt than a war, so other standards applied. “Mowing down Matabeles, Dervishes or Tibetans,” writes Ellis, “was regarded more as a rather risky kind of ‘shoot’ than a true military operation.” #RandolphHarris 3 of 19

At Omdurman, across the Nile from Khartoum, this superior technology was displayed with withering effect in 1898 when Dervish warriors led by the Mahdi were defeated by British troops armed with six Maxim machine guns. An eyewitness wrote: “It was the last day of Mahdism and the greatest….It was not a battle but an execution.” In the one engagement twenty-eight British died, leaving behind eleven thousand Dervish dead—392 colonial casualties for every Englishman. Writes Ellis: “It became another example of the triumph of the British spirit, and the general superiority of the White man.” Behind the racist attitudes and the religious and other justifications as the British, French, Germans, Dutch, and others spread around the World, stood a single hard reality. Second Wave civilization could not exist in isolation. It desperately needed the hidden subsidy of cheap resources from the outside. Above all, it needed a single integrated World market through which to siphon those subsidies. The thrust to create this integrated World market was based on the idea, best expressed by David Ricardo, that the division of labour ought to be applied to nations as well as to factory workers. In a classical passage he pointed out that if Britain specialized in the manufacture of textiles and Portugal in making wine, both countries would gain. Each would be doing what it did best. Thus the “international division of labour,” assigning specialized roles to different nations, would enrich everyone. This belief hardened into strict and rigid doctrine in the generations that followed and still prevails today, although its implications often go unnoticed. #RandolphHarris 4 of 19

For just as the division of labour in any economy created a powerful need for integration and thereby gave rise to an integrational elite, so the international division of labour required integration of a global scale and gave rise to a global elite—a small group of Second Wave nations which, for all practical purposes, took turns dominating large parts of the rest of the World. The success of the drive to create a single integrated World market can be measured in the fantastic growth of World trade once the Second Wave passed through Europe. Between 1750 and 1914 the value of World trade is estimate to have multiplied more than fifty-fold, rising from 700 million dollars ($29,443,203,125.00 in 2021 dollars) to almost 40 billion dollars ($1,076,780,000,000.00 in 2021 dollars). If Ricardo had been right, the advantages of this global trade should have accrued more or less evenly to all aides. In fact, the self-serving belief that specialization would benefit everyone was based on a fantasy of fair competition. It presupposed a completely efficient use of labour and resources. It presupposed deals uncontaminated by threats of political or military force. It presupposed arm’s-length transactions by more or less evenly matched bargainers. They theory, in short, overlooked nothing—except real life. In reality, negotiations between Second Wave merchants and Firs Wave people over sugar, copper, cocoa, or other resources were often totally lopsided. On one side of the table sat money-shrewd European or American traders backed by huge companies, extensive banking networks, powerful technologies, and strong national governments. On the other one might find a local lord or tribal chieftain whose people had scarcely entered the money system and whose economy was based on small-scale agriculture or village crafts. On one side sat the agents of a thrusting, alien, mechanically advanced civilization, convinced of its own superiority and ready to use bayonets or machine guns to prove it. On the other sat representatives of small prenational tribes or principalities, armed with arrows and spears. #RandolphHarris 5 of 19

Often local rulers or entrepreneurs were simply bought off by the Western, offered bribes or personal gains in return for sweating the native labour force, putting down resistance, or rewriting local laws in favour of the outsiders. Once conquering a colony, the imperial power often set preferential raw-material prices for its own businessmen and erected stiff barriers to prevent the traders of rival nations from bidding prices up. Under such circumstances, it was hardly surprising that the industrial World was able to obtain raw materials or energy resources at less than fair-market prices. Beyond this, prices were often further depressed in the favour of the buyers by what might be termed “The Law of First Price.” Many raw materials needed by Second Wave nations were virtually valueless to the First Wave populations who had them. African peasants had no need for chromium. Arabian sheiks had no use for black gold that they under their desert sands. Where no previous history of trade existed for a given commodity, the prince set in the first transaction was crucial. And this price was often based less on such economic factors as cost, profit, or competition than on relative military and political strength. Typically set in the absence of active competition, almost any price was acceptable to a lord or tribal chief who regarded his local resources as valueless and found himself facing a regiment of troops with Gatling guns. And this First Price, once established at a low level, depressed all subsequent prices. #RandolphHarris 6 of 19

As soon as this raw material was shipped back to the industrial nations and incorporated in final products, the low initial price, was for all intents, frozen in place. Example: Suppose Compnay A bought a raw material from Colonia for one dollar a pound, then used I to manufacture widgets selling for two dollars each. Any other company seeking to enter the widget market would strive to keep its own raw-material cost as, or below, that of Company A. Unless it had some technological or other edge, it could not afford to pay significantly more for its raw material and still sell widgets at a competitive price. Thus the initial price set for the raw material, even if arrived at under the shadow of bayonets, became the base for all subsequent negotiation. Eventually, as a World price was gradually established for each commodity, all industrial nations benefited from the fac that the First Price had been set at an “a-competitive” low level. For many different reasons, therefore, despite much imperialist rhetoric about the virtues of free trade and enterprise, the Second Wave nations profited greatly from what was euphemistically called “imperfect competition.” Rhetoric and Ricardo aside, the benefits of expanding trade were not eventually shared. They flowed mainly from the First Wave World to the Second. Many people during the Second Wave also had popular-wisdom reasons for moving to the suburbs. For example, one of the reasons was the filth and crime of the city, and the sharply rising urban taxes, and much higher prices for most goods and services. “White flight” is commonly believed to be a major cause of suburbanization. Two causes of American residential deconcentration were a better quality of life and newer, more affordable housing. #RandolphHarris 7 of 19

However, while race, taxes, higher prices for most good and services, crime, or all of these factors doubtlessly were important for individual families, researchers have known for decades that such “commonsense” explanations tend to be overrated as major contributions to postwar suburbanization. In reality, they had little impact on the massive suburbanization that occurred before the late 1960s, when these explanations first became fashionable. This is not to say that race, crime, poor schools, urban decay, and high taxes are not factors in white flight from the city today. However, it is a mistake to project today’s situation back into the past. The fact is that during the 1940s, 1950, and much of the 1960s, cities were doing reasonably well in terms of crime and taxes. Today it is hard to imagine a New York City in which, including family and criminal violence, there were under fifty murders a year, but that was the case during the 1940s. In 1942, for example, there were only forty-four murders in all of New York City. Moreover, white flight to the suburbs was largely irrelevant, because virtually all housing in the United States of America, city and suburban, was de facto segregated. Urban European Americans, particularly those living in the large industrial cities of the North and Middle-West, already lived in segregated, all-European American neighbourhoods. Until the federal open-housing legislation of 1968, city housing was segregated by law in the South and by custom in the North. This meant that African American and European Americans were in separate housing pools. In Northern as well as Southern cities, African Americans could only find housing in segregated African American neighbourhoods. #RandolphHarris 8 of 19

New housing units were added to the non-European American communities housing pool through expanding ghastly impoverished communities full of deviance, crime, drugs, disorder, and pests through blockbusting. Blockbusting is the practice of one person of an undesired category buying into a neighbourhood at a higher than market rate price, then persuading other owners to sell property cheaply by making the neighbourhood undesirable for them by making too much noise, having too much traffic, bringing in pests, keeping their house in poor repair, having too many cars parked on the street and in the driveway, selecting odd paint colours for the house, cutting down trees, and having too many people in front of their house, and thus lowering the price of other houses, which causes people to sell before their property values fall too much, and the saboteur then gets their family and friends into a once prestigious community and it begins to decline and become highly undesirable. It is the opposite of gentrification, in this case. However, gentrification is also a form of blockbusting that rehabilitates undesirable communities, driving up prices and making them highly coveted places to life. Currently Harlem, New York is in the process of gentrification. Nonetheless, gentrification is not always bad because as prices increase, people who live in poverty gain equity, can sale, move to another state in experience a higher quality of life. Whereas reverse gentrification is usually always bad, as it makes communities unlivable, undesirable, and brings an increase in crime rates. #RandolphHarris 9 of 19

During the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, publicly sanctioned racial segregation kept African Americans confined within specific undesirable deviant neighbourhoods. Established patterns of housing segregation meant that for the vast majority of middle-class European Americans, “White Flight” would have been meaningless. Only during the last fifty years does White flight emerge as a major variable. Following World War II other factors were more important. The mass suburbanization exodus of young couples during the decades immediately following World War II was not caused by flight from the city so much as by the baby boom and by government subsidies for a new suburban housing. The available lower-cost new housing was largely in the suburbs. Research shows that suburbanization in the decades immediately following World War II represented a moment toward the values associated with suburban living, such as privacy, space, cleanliness, and other suburban amenities, rather than a fleeing from perceived urban ills. The suburbs were where young families could find new, affordable, single-family housing subsidized by government loans. Not surprising, young European American families suburbanized in massive numbers. The prototypical example of the tract suburb was Levittown. The Levitt brothers, Bill and Alfred, had a construction company that had built upper-middle-class housing on Long Island dung the late 1930s. Early in World War II, they had obtained a government contract to build 2,350 mass-produced homes for war workers in Norfolk, Virginia USA. #RandolphHarris 10 of 19

In the process they had learned just how many things could go wrong, but they also learned how to cut construction costs by standardizing the building process. Bill later served with the Seabees in the Pacific Theatre, where he learned how to invent new ways to put up airfields in minimal time. He came back with ideas about how to revolutionize the housing industry. Instead of building one house at a time, he proposed to mass-produce housing. Instead of building one house at a time, he proposed to mass-produce housing. He did housing construction what Henry Ford had done for automobile manufacture. In 1946 the Levitts began building what was at that time the largest private-housing development in North America on 4,000 acres of potato farms they had purchased some twenty miles from New York City on Long Island. They named it Levittown. The community made in history in a number of ways. First, Levittown was not designed as an upper-middle-class housing development; rather, it was built expressively for young working and middle-class ex-GIs. This originally meant a single housing style having 12-by-16 foot living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bath. Second, the Levitts were the first developers to use mass productions techniques. They did not have an actual assembly line, but they came closer to this approach than any other larger builder of the time. Setting Levittowns apart from other developments was that they were built on a scale not preciously attempted. Most builders then (and now) would build only a handful of houses at a time and use the monies from the sale of one home to purchase materials to build another. The Levitts built hundreds of homes at a time and, in effect, had their own finance company. #RandolphHarris 11 of 19

Whole areas went up at once. Teams working on specific tasks went from house to house completing each task in assembly line fashion. Construction was broken down into a number of simple steps so it could be done by semiskilled workers who would repeat the same process over and over. Homes were built on identical concrete slabs laid out on identical cookie-cuter 60-foot lots. All the cement foundations in a neighbourhood would be laid at the same time; all the walls went up at the same time; and all the interiors would be finished simultaneously. Even tree planting was routinized. One crew would machine-dig a similar hole in each front lot; another crew would drop a tree off a truckbed near the hole; and a third crew would plant the tree in the hole. Levitt claimed they were able to complete a house every fifteen minutes. To keep down coasts and prevent being stopped by strikes, the Levitts even had their own subsidiary timer company in Oregon. They even owned their own lumber yards and nail works. Levittown revolutionized the housing industry after the World War II by using mass production techniques in the construction of thousands of houses on what had been potato fields. The Levitt brothers claimed their techniques enabled them to complete a house every fifteen minutes. And very importantly, the Levitts did all this at a price well below that of comparable homes while making profit well above that of competitors. They were able to do so because of standardization. Variety, as with the early Fords, was severely limited. #RandolphHarris 12 of 19

In fact, originally, all houses were identical 800-square-foot four-room Cape Cods with an unfinished upper floor that could be finished and expanded into two bedrooms as the family grew. The price for all this was only $7,990 ($79,957.92 in 2021 dollars), and a Bendix automatic washer was included. A more expensive rancher mode was later added. A rancher at the new Levitown outside Philadelphia cost the new suburbanites $8,990 in 1954 ($89,965.17 in 2021 dollars). For this home, a veteran would have to put down no payment, and the monthly payment on a thirty-year VA loan would be only $59 ($590.43 in 2021 dollars) a month. This was well below contemporary urban rental costs, much less than other suburban subdevelopments. Total closing costs were only $10 ($100.07 in 2021 dollars). Levittown was designed to be mass suburbia. The original Levittown was planned as an entire community housing over 80,000 people in almost 17,500 single-family homes. Levittown from the first was praised by the popular press and magazines and severely criticized by architects and planners. New York’s intellectual elite scorned its repetitive commonness, and the term “Levittown” entered the language as a derisive term meaning a mass-produced suburb of look-alike homes housing look-alike people. Levittown, however, was an immediate and overwhelming success with the public. Levitt particularly designed his communities for young veterans and growing families. Before its opening, young couples lined up for days to get one of those homes. On one single spring day in 1949, some 1,400 families signed purchase contracts for their own Levittown homes. Mass suburbanization based on subdivisions of detached single-family homes was underway, and suburbia would never be the same. #RandolphHarris 13 of 19

We now take the postwar era of building subdivisions for granted, but it was not inevitable that American mass suburbanization would take the form it did. In Great Britain the government sponsored new towns filled with row houses, while in Sweden the emphasis was on suburban high-rise housing. By contrast, in the United States of America, postwar federal government home loan policies and the response of builders like the Levitts virtually assured acre upon acre of identical free-standing homes. Without these government policies and veteran, suburbia today might look far different. Rapid and sustained economic growth following World War II led o rising affluence and optimism regarding the future. For the first time large numbers of Americans had enough money to purchase homes and could also obtain automobiles and household durables such as washing machines, lawn mowers, sewing machines, and more. This era of consumer confidence lasted from the mid-1940s through the 1960s. The decade of the 1970s was one of uncertainty and discontent, but the ethos of prosperity still prevailed. People expected the boom and bust of the 1970s to be an aberration, with prosperity and continual economic expansion to continue. By the 1980s expectations had shrunk to where most consumers simply sought to stay where they were and not fall further behind. The 1990s continue the pattern of uncertainty. Post war suburbanization was fed by economic growth, and median family income adjusted for inflation today is not appreciably higher than that of two decades ago. The real difference is that family income today requires two and sometimes three breadwinners. #RandolphHarris 14 of 19

Even if interest rates are low, the cost of home ownership is going up. In the mid-1950s, the average thirty-year-old worker could carry a mortgage on a then median-priced home for 14 percent of one’s gross earnings. Three decades later, it took a full 44 percent of the average thirty-year-old worker’s gross earning to purchase the median-priced home. This means that purchase of the average home now requires two incomes (or more) to accomplish what a single income could afford in the 1950s. It is now harder to buy that starter homes in a nice suburb. In 1980, 62 percent of all married couples aged thirty to thirty-five had bought their first home. By 1990, the percent of such couples in their first home had gone down to 52 percent. For younger couples, aged twenty-five to twenty-nine, the decline in homeowning was from 43 to 36 percent. For many young couples the buying of the first home is far more difficult than it had been for their parents. And it does not seem possible, though, that housing cost might decline somewhat during the decade of the 2020s. Declines early in the decade were recession-related, but later in the decade another factor comes increasingly into play. That is the much-heralded aging of the baby boom generation. As boomers age, they are followed by the “baby bust” cohorts. The smaller size of this latter group should result in some weakening demand for housing, and thus some slackening of prices, particularly for first homes. This should be good news for young couples seeking their first home. It will be much less popular with those boomers who bought at peak prices in the late 1980, particularly those boomers who purchased their homes as investment rather than as places to live. #RandolphHarris 15 of 19

During the 1980s housing prices rose considerably faster than incomes or inflation. This is less likely to be the pattern of the 2020s. Houses are likely to be purchased more as homes in which to live rather than largely as investment properties. Therefore, a bad deed should never be done, no, not for anything in the World, not even for the love of God or another human being. A good deed sometimes has to be squeezed into the daily routine, especially when it is for the advantage of the poor. The opus interruptum in question would seem to be lost forever, but it is not; it has been converted to a better work. A deed done without charity has no spiritual value. Saint Paul propounded that in his First to the Corinthians (13.3). A deed done with charity, however small or insignificant it may be, is a thoroughly fruitful work. The way God weighs in, it is not what the deed is; humongous does not count. It is the motive, how the deed is done. Done for the love of Jesus Christ is by far the best. He does much who loves much. He does much who does a thing well. He does a thing well who serves his community more than himself. Carnality often mummers as Charity. Human Nature, Selfishness, Retribution, Convenience, they to hide behind the same holy mask, attempting to crash the Final Party. The one who True and Perfect Charity cannot find oneself in the mirror. One desires only that the glory of God flare out in all things. One envies no one; one has no pet peeves, no private toys; one does not rejoice in oneself alone. #RandolphHarris 16 of 19

On the contrary, one want to be blessed in God rather than possess all things without God; again, Saint Paul’s First to the Corinthians (13.4). One attributes nothing to anyone, but refers everything to God. One sees all things fluting fountainlike from God. One sees all Saints on the far side of Judgment picnicking in Heavenly Orchard. Charity it is, then, the love for Jesus Christ. From a spark of this True Charity, you would have more than enough light to see that all Earthly things—pressed down, filled to overflowing, beyond all measure, out of all proportion, plentifully, prodigally, extravagantly, superfluously, redundantly, excessively—mount up to nothing at all. It would be just wrong to argue that every physical disease proves a moral fault or mental deformity to exit, as it would be to argue that the absence of such disease proves moral or mental perfection o have been attained. Many other terrestrial beings are quite healthy too! Where physical laws of hygiene have been broken and continue to be broken, where gluttonous or ill-informed eating and intemperate living have led to bodily disturbance, the sufferer must still rectify one’s physical errors whether one’s spiritual healing is successful or not. Nature has implanted true instincts in our body to sustain and protect it. If we, through slavish acceptance of society’s bad habits, pervert those instincts or dull their sensitivity and poison our body, Nature forces us to suffer sickness and pain as the warning consequences of such perversion. Insofar as humans through ignorance fail to observe nature’s laws or through weakness persistently disobeys them, one is everywhere suffering the penalties attached to one’s wrong habits. #RandolphHarris 17 of 19

The truth is that no human is free to please oneself and eat what one fancies. All human, including all teachers and members of cult which claim this freedom and who trespass against themselves in this matter, will have to pay the penalty in some way or at some time. The human who reveals in one’s sensuality will naturally defend it. However, when some form of great suffering comes to one as a direct consequence, and one see it for the first time as a sin, one will cease doing so. Ill health disturbs the mind, and if prolonged or serious, may bring on neuroses. The way one views oneself and others, one’s life and the World, has too often been affected by chronic disagreeable sensations in a small part of the body, too often been improved by improving the physical condition, to assert that physical cases are unimportant. Why is it that the number of deaths from cancer has been increasing so rapidly in our times, and so disproportionately to the increase in population? Why is it that this is happening in all those parts of the World where civilization has spread? Why is it that those people who live in the most modern way—the Americans—have the most cancer. Is there not a hint here that our present way of living contributes something to its cause? How many people who would never dream of committing murder upon someone else, commit it upon themselves? Health troubles show up the value of good health, since the physical body’s condition has a strong influence upon the mind’s condition. #RandolphHarris 18 of 19

 It is worth the trouble of studying the body’s true needs to keep it a useful and efficient temple of God. I believe the Earth exists, and in each minim mote of its duty the holy glow of thy candle. Thou unknown I know, thou spirit, giver, lover of making, of the wrought letter, wrought flower, iron, deed, dream. Dust of Earth, help thou my unbelief. Drift of the Earth, help thou my unbelief. Drift, gray become gold, in the beam of vision. I believe with doubt. I doubt and interrupt my doubt with belief. Be, beloved, threatened World. Each minim mote. Not the poisonous luminescence forced out of its privacy, the sacred lock of its cell broken. No, the ordinary glow of common dust in ancient sunlight. Be, that I may believe. Amen. Grant peace, well-being and blessing unto the World, with grace, lovingkindness and mercy for us and for all America, Thy people. Bless us, O our Father, all of us together, with the light of Thy presence; for by that light Thou hast given us, O Lord our God, the Book of Mormon and Holy Bible of life, lovingkindness and righteousness, blessing and mercy, life and peace. O may it be good in Thy sight at all times to bless Thy people America with Thy peace. Blessed art Thou, O Lord, who blessest Thy people America with peace. O Lord, please guard my tongue from evil and my lips from speaking guile, and to those who slander me, let me give no heed. May my soul be humble and forgiving unto all. Please open Thou my heart, O Lord, unto Thy sacred Law, that Thy statutes I may know and all Thy truths purse. Please bring to naught designs of those who seek to do me ill; speedily defeat their aims and thwart their purposes for Thine own sake, for Thine own power, for Thy holiness and Law. That Thy loved ones be delivered, answer us, O Lord, and save with Thy redeeming power. #RandolphHarris 19 of 19
