The brain is regarded as the most complex anatomical structure in the human body that executes various functions. The concept of wholeness or oneness refers to not only humans, but also all of creation. Similarly, consciousness may not wholly exist inside the human brain. One consciousness could permeate the whole Universe as limitless energy; thus, human consciousness can be regarded as limited or partial in character. According to the limited consciousness concept, humans perceive projected waves or wave-vortices as waveless item. Therefore, human limited consciousness collapses the wave function or energy of particles; accordingly, we are only able to perceive them as particles. With this limited concept, the wave-vortex or wave movement comes into review, which also seems to have a limited concept, id est, the limited projected wave concept. Notably, this wave-vortex seems to embrace photonic light, as well as electricity and anything between them, which gives a sense of dimension to our brain. These elements of limited projected wave-vortex and limitless energy (consciousness) may coexist inside our brain as electric (directional pilot wave) and quantum (diffused oneness of waves) brainwaves, respectively with both of them giving rise to one brain field. Abnormality in either the electrical or the quantum field or their fusion may lead to abnormal brain function. #RandolphHarris 1 of 24

The electromagnetic brainwaves or energy with its discrete network is commonly thought of as the sole contributor to various brain functions. Our thoughts, even fleeting ones, can seem an insignificant part of our day. However, in reality, our thoughts eventually determine or character. “For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is her.” And, for those who are striving to be like the Saviour, being pure in heart and mind is a must. Your brain is comprised of a tight network of nerve cells, all interacting with one another and generating an overall electrical field. This electric field is detectable with standard medical equipment. Your brain waves are simply the superposition of the multitude of electrical states being formed by your nervous system. Anywhere there is a nerve cell, there is electricity. The light seen coming from a star and the energy in your mind are the same type. Your thoughts are formed in this electric field. The measurable perturbations and disturbances in the brain’s overall electric field are your actual thoughts racing through your mind. The thoughts you think and the words your mind processes are all electrical impulses that can be measured. Therefore, thoughts are energy. That means they are governed by all the same rules of quantum mechanics and Schrodinger’s wave of equations as well. All the fascinating things about quantum mechanics that describe how an electron or photon behave, apply to you and your thoughts as well. #RandolphHarris 2 of 24

Like any other set of particles or source of energy, we are connected with everything we encounter, the environment around us and the rest of the Universe through the zero-point field. The difference between a human being and a photon is that human beings can think; they are conscious. As such, human beings can choose which of the possibilities before them to collapse their wave function into. However, because human beings are entangled with their environment, they can also affect the environment and influence the randomness, just as it can affect us. It is through the property of entanglement that human beings can affect change in their environment. Human minds are transceivers, and able to receive and send signals into the quantum sphere of the zero-point field by the way of the highly coherent frequencies of their thoughts. It is possible that some people have more powerful brain frequences than others and perhaps that is why people like Sarah L. Winchester could see ghosts and demons, and it is also perhaps why the Ancient Egyptian could use what is considered magic. They spent more time working with their brains and had less distractions, so their brains may have been more powerful. The higher the frequency of one’s thought and/or brain wave, the higher their consciousness. The level of a human being’s consciousness it what makes their reality what it is and what it will continue to be. That is why parents tell their children, “What you focus on you will attract.” #RandolphHarris 3 of 24

When behaviours or ideas are pushed to an incredible extreme, they are held up to ridicule either by mild humorous irony or by strong sarcasm. This brings a needed corrective to the exaggeration. Any good quality may be pushed to fanatical extremes, whereupon it may become a bad quality. It is hard to walk the pessimists and deny the will to live because birth is evil and deny the natural needs because desire is evil. A juster evaluation would find evil forms of living and evil desires, but the great current of Life itself is surely beyond such relativities as good and evil. A temperate self-discipline is certainly inculcated by philosophy bit it does not call for the extreme of rigorous asceticism. A reasoned austerity at certain times and a wise self-denial at other times fortify and purify a man. Ascetic disciplines take four channels: physical, mental, emotional, and vocal. This last one, the restraint of speech is threefold: First, Prayer. The Lord can help you overcome any problem, including unclean thoughts. Make sure you choose your surroundings carefully and that your activities inspire good thoughts. Surround yourself with good friends who uphold Church standards, and practice carefulness never to depart from truthfulness. The purpose of all balanced asceticism, whether physical or metaphysical, emotional or mental, is to pull the consciousness up from a lower outlook to a higher one. However, this is only to make it possible for the aspirant to get the loftier outlook. If he confuses asceticism with fanaticism, this cannot be done. It is properly a training of the body and thoughts to obey and work with his higher will. #RandolphHarris 4 of 24

Some might consider all of this to be Women’s Lib. However, I would like to say that it seems unfortunate to lump everyone together under a single, catch-all label like “Women’s Lib,” when the fact is that there are different groups with different scientific views and philosophies and different goals. Some are doing important work while others, I am afraid, are just tilting at windmills. Nonetheless, let us not lose track of the issue. According to the familiar double standard, the man was active in intimate passions, the woman passive with in intimate passions. She served his needs. Today this master-servant kind of sexual exploitation is no longer acceptable, but the answer to the problem does not come from reversing roles. It is not either/or; it is neither/not. In most marriages today the goal of both partners is to be neither master nor servant. However, of course, it is more easily said than done, because the relationship with pleasures of the flesh is a subtle one, delicately constructed out of the needs and desires of two human beings who individually may not—probably do not—know fully what those needs and desires are. Their marriage is like a bridge from one to the other; somehow they can cross back and forth on it but they are not entirely sure just what is holding it up. Ans so if they arbitrarily decided to pull out one support and replace it with another, they may find the bridge in danger of collapsing. To more specific, let us suppose that the change they want to make to replace—concerns the pleasures of the flesh initiative. #RandolphHarris 5 of 24

Traditionally this was the male’s privilege—to initiate or invite or suggest or request a physical response. This was his right because he was a man, and the exercise of that right proved he was a man. For the woman, naturally, it was the reverse. By exercising her right to respond or to refuse, she proved herself a woman. Today we are in transition, and we will assume that a young couple do not want to live in accord with that traditional standard. However, can they make progress toward equality in pleasures of the flesh without undermining the relationship of intimate passions itself? Suppose that a young woman has grown up, as so many still do, in a comparatively traditional climate. Her father, brother, boyfriends, teachers, in another way, her mother, older sisters, aunts, all have unwittingly conspired to make her see herself as being most female when she is most responsive or receptive to the male gender. In all her plans and dreams where boys are involved, she sees herself as being pursued, being desired, being enjoyed. You see, if we take a young lady with a basically traditional background, we can be almost certain that one of the things that turns her on is being pursued. The chase is delightful, and it has erotic value for her because being pursued intensifies her sense of herself as a female person. Both words count. She is happy with herself both as a female and as a person. #RandolphHarris 6 of 24

Now, this does not mean that she cannot change and eventually be comfortable in a situation where she at least shares the initiative and where she participates more actively in a relationship with a man. She can learn and she can change. However, she needs time to allow her deepest feelings to adjust to these new values, to make them part of her pleasures of the flesh value system. She also needs to have the right man—or men—in her left at the time this is happening. After all, we are not talking about an intellectual abstraction. We are talking about flesh-and-blood human beings trying their best to work out their lives together as male and female. Here, by the way, the traditional female role helps the woman. Socially and culturally, it is perfectly acceptable for her to be the pupil. So, if the were teaching him to accept her as an equal, if she is fortunate enough to have the right man teaching her to take the initiative when the time and the circumstances and the mood seem favourable, she can be far more comfortable in the learning role than the man may be. From the male point of view, the problem is basically functional. If he is to perform at all, the situation must stimulate a spontaneous or voluntary physical response. This response is easily aborted, by fatigue, worries, fear, illness—you name it. If the male perceives the female is threatening him, even if in fact she intends the opposite, failure can be the result. She may, to further highlight this illustration, take off her nightgown before getting to bed, a gesture she intends to be stimulating and flattering, letting him know that she would be happy to join him. #RandolphHarris 7 of 24

However, if he sees this as taking the initiative with pleasures of the flesh, making demands on him, he may feel threatened. He may then be unable to perform and, inevitably seeking an excuse, he will be furious with her for having taken what he sees as an aggressive step. This is not an extreme example; it is a situation we encounter frequently in our clinical work. The man is taking a traditional double-standard attitude. A man with this philosophy is unlikely to take kindly to having his wife teach him other ways. In therapy, however, he can be introduced to new concepts. He may then perceive his wife’s action quite differently, and he may account for himself very well indeed. You see this mostly with mature people, but you see it with surprising frequency among younger couples too—particularly after marriage. Marriage apparently does seem to change one’s outlook. I do not say that it should, mind you—just that it does. When a man looks at a woman, that is one thing. When he looks at the same woman, who is now his wife, it is something else. If he is a latent double-standard man, you will know it, all right. To practice the necessary trainings and disciplines which any improvement of self calls for is to embrace the correct kind of asceticism, not to fall into unnecessary and unbalanced ways which turn it into fanaticism. We practice asceticism not because we hate the body but because it calms the passions. #RandolphHarris 8 of 24

If we have to deny its most powerful manifestations, if we are taught to deny the body and ignore the senses, if we are to reject the national satisfactions and renounce the aesthetic ones, life makes no sense. To deny Nature in the name of some narrow ascetic doctrine, to judge men and art by its standards, is to introduce ugliness into life, prejudice into affairs, and imbalance into character. Not in ascetic despisal of the flesh nor in fascinated enslavement to it will peace be found. Two representative examples of those forms of asceticism which may be listed as unreasonable, extreme, or fanatical, and which are therefore taboo in philosophic practice are wearing hair shirts to cause irritation or itching of the skin, and deliberately inflicting pain by scourging or mutilating the body. An Asceticism which makes a moral distinction between the body and the Spirit is exaggerated or false. Ascetism is useful as training of the self but harmful as a shriveling of it. Ascetism serves a useful purpose, but the balanced man will not cling to it when the purpose has been achieved. He will let it go in order to reach the next step higher, where there is no room for one-sided things. Among the dangers of asceticism are its aptness to breed an intolerant mind, its proneness to harsh judgment on nonascetic human beings. As asceticism which rises from within, which is wholly spontaneous, natural, and unforced, which at the same time avoids fanaticism and imbalance, is not objectionable and may even be admirable. #RandolphHarris 9 of 24

The ascetic who is ashamed to possess a body is as foolish as the one who hates it for the weakness, he thinks it produced in his feelings. The ascetic seeks for the impoverishment of life and the Worldling seeks for its enrichment. Both are right in their place. However, whereas the ascetic would impose his rule of life upon all others as constituting the highest one, the philosopher knows that it is but the mark of the beginner who has to disentangle himself from the dominion of desire and Worldliness. When we consider a person’s demeanor, the way he “comes on,” that is called his “sweatshirt.” The sweatshirt, in an exceedingly creative, artistic, and economical phrase or two, indicates to the experienced eye the person’s favourite pastime, game, and feeling, his nickname, what he does in the front room and the back room, what kind of a mental World he lives in, what kind of ending his script calls for, and sometimes the critical sphincter, his hero, and his totem. The sweatshirt is usually adopted in high school or early college years, the age when sweatshirts are popular. In later life it may be embroidered or the wording changed slightly, but the core of the meaning will remain unchanged. All competent clinicians, of whatever school, have one thing in common: they are good observers. #RandolphHarris 10 of 24

Since they are all observing the same thing—human behaviour—there is bound to be some a similarity in what they see and how they sort our and account for their observations. Hence the psychoanalytic idea of “character defense” or “character armour,” the Jungian concept of “attitude,” the Adlerian notion of “life lie” or “life style,” and the transactional metaphour of “sweatshirt” all describer very similar phenomena. (Many psychoanalysts consider that “transactional games” is merely a synonym for character defenses. This is not so. The sweatshirt is the character defense. Games belong to the open system of social psychology, and not to the closed energy system described by Dr. Freud.) An actual sweatshirt (“Hell’s Angels,” “The Losers,” “Black Panthers,” “Harvard Track Team,” or even “Beethoven”) states which gang a person belongs to, and gives some indication of his philosophy and how he is likely to respond to certain stimuli; but it does not indicate exactly how he will go about conning someone and what payoff he expects. For example, it is clear that many members of the first three gangs mentioned above are riding on the “Forget You” streetcar, but without knowing each member of the gang intimately (in the clinical sense) it is not possible to predict which ones want to be killed in order to become martyrs, which ones want merely to be manhandled so that they can cry “Police brutality!” and which ones are straight. The sweatshirt indicates their collective attitude and the games they share in common, but each one is playing out his own script with its own individual payoff. #RandolphHarris 11 of 24

A transactional or script sweatshirt is an attitude which is clearly advertised by the person’s demeanor, just as clearly as though he wore a sweatshirt with his script slogan printed on the front. Some common script sweatshirts are “Kick Me,” “Don’t Kick Me,” “I’m Proud I’m An Alcoholic,” “Look How Hard I’m Trying,” “Buzz Off,” “I Am Fragile,” and “Need a Fix?” Some sweatshirts have a message on the front and a “kicker” in the back: for example, a woman comes on like “I’m Looking For A Husband,” but when she turns her back it clearly says: “But You Don’t Qualify.” The man with “I’m Proud I’m An Alcoholic” on his forehead may have “But Remember It’s A Sickness” on the back. Homosexuals wear particularly flamboyant ones with the front slogan ‘Don’t You Think I’m Fascinating?” while on the back it says, “Isn’t That Enough?” Other sweatshirts give a picture of a more “clubbish” way of life. “Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen” (NOKTIS) is a fraternity with many branches, one of which is the Melancholy Litvak’s Club. The Melancholy Litvaks’ Club can be visualized by a Martain as little wooden building, sparsely furnished with run-down furniture. There are no pictures on the wall, only a framed motto reading, “Why Not Kill Yourself Today?” There is a small library consisting of statistical reports and books by pessimistic philosophers. The point of NOKTIS is not the total amount of trouble, but the fact that Nobody Knows. The NOKTIS makes sure that nobody ever finds out, either, because if anybody did know, then he could not say “Nobody knows,” and his sweatshirt would lose its point. #RandolphHarris 12 of 24

The sweatshirt is usually derived from a favourtie slogan of the parents, such as “Nobody in the World will love you like your father and mother do.” This resigned, plod-ahead sweatshirt is disjunctive, and merely serves to separate the wearer from the people around him. By a simple twist it can be transformed into a conjunctive one which will attract other people instead of putting them off, and lead to appropriate “Ain’t It Awful” pastimes and games: “Nobody loves me like my father and mother do.” What attracts other people is the back of this sweatshirt, which reads: “How about you?” Rimbaud was the poet of rebellion. His life, far from justifying the myth it created, only illustrates (an objective perusal of the letters from Harrar suffices to prove this) the fact that he surrendered to the worst form of nihilism imaginable. As if his renunciation implied superhuman virtue, Rimbaud has been defied for renouncing his genius. It must be pointed out, however, despite the fact that by doing so we disqualify the alibis of our contemporaries, that genius alone—and not the renunciation of genius—implies virtue. Rimbaud’s greatness does not lie in the first poems of Charleville nor in his trading at Harrar. It shines forth at the moment when, in giving the most peculiarly appropriate expression to rebellion that it has ever received, he simultaneously proclaims his triumph and his agony, his conception of a life beyond the confines of this World and the inescapability of the World, the yearning for the unattainable and reality brutally determined on restraint, the rejection of morality and the irresistible compulsion of duty. #RandolphHarris 13 of 24

At the moment when he carries in his breast both illumination and the darkness of hell, when he hails and insults beauty, and creates, from an insoluble conflict, the intricate counterpoint of an exquisite song, he is the poet of rebellion—the greatest of all. The order in which he wrote his two great works is of no importance. In any case there was very little time between the conception of the two books, and any artists knows, with the certainty born of experience, that Rimbaud simultaneously carried the seeds of the Season in Hell (Une Saison en Enfer) and the Illuminations within him. Though he wrote them one after the other, there is no doubt of them at the same time. This contradiction, which killed him, was the real source of his genius. In view of the fact that chronic suppression and repression of affect produce such unhealthy consequences, we shall inquire into some of the factors responsible for the adoption of these unhealthy patterns. Dependency upon Others. When persons must depend upon others for the solution of their problems and the satisfaction of their needs, they are thrust into situations that can promote unhealthy suppression and repression. So long as they are in the dependent role and need the other person’s good will, they must express nothing which will incur the displeasure of the other person. Thus, a child, an employee, or an inadequate person may have to withhold honest expression of feelings and express (or pretend to feel) only those that will improve his or her status in the eyes of the dominant one. Most of us have had the fantasy at one time or another of telling someone with whom we have been solely associated in a dependent role just how we really feel toward them. #RandolphHarris 14 of 24

Some people, on achieving autonomy, wealth, or courage, come right out and express long-withheld feelings. Sometimes the dissolution of a dependency relationship will remove only the motives for suppression, so that persons vent feelings they have long been aware of. Sometimes, however, with the breakup of the dependency relationship, long-standing repression will be undone, and persons will themselves be shocked and surprised at the feelings that well up for expression. Excessively Strict Conscience and Self-denial. Persons may chronically suppress or repress certain emotions not only for external reasons, such as avoiding rejection or criticism, but also to conform with demands of conscience. Persons may have acquired values that make certain emotions not only for external reasons, such as avoiding rejection or criticism, but also to conform with demands of conscience. Persons may have acquired values that make their self-esteem contingent on the exclusion of certain feelings and emotions not only from behaviour, but even from consciousness. They can accept themselves only as kind, pure, and strong, and so they must repress all those feelings that would produce guilt if they were recognized. Rigid Role Definitions. Everyone learns a variety of social roles include those associated with age, pleasures of the flesh, occupation, and one’s family position. Each role has strong social norms governing the experience and expression of emotion. To further highlight this illustration, a physician is expected to appear calm in situations of illness and crisis, whereas a layperson or a patient can experience and express panic without social blame. #RandolphHarris 15 of 24

Similarly, men in our culture are expected to appear stronger, more competent, and more in control of their emotions than are women (although these roles are changing through the influence of women’s liberation advocates). Thus, if they experience tenderness, weakness, and dependency, or the impulse to weep, men commonly feel ashamed. The necessity to appear before others in conformity with conventional role definitions thus fosters suppression and repression of emotion. If a person cannot find opportunities to be “out” of these roles, in order to experience and express the feelings engendered by life happenings, then that person’s roles are endangering his or her health. The moral precepts which philosophy imparts to its votaries are based not only on the familiar laws of goodness being coincident with happiness and of suffering being a reaction of evil, but also on the lesser-known facts of psychic sensibility. If you have renounced the World outwardly and wear a halo, you would be right in regarding ambition as a sin. However, if you still live in the World and have renounced it inwardly, it would not be wrong to work like those who are ambitious and so fill a more useful and more powerful role in society. Capital punishment is unethical because it commits a second murder to punish the first one, and not everyone on death row is guilty. Ideals are good and needed, but impracticable ones are not. Their failure tests and show them up for the mere theories that they are. The balanced, practical idealist does more for humanity than the hazy, muddling theorist. #RandolphHarris 16 of 24

When you are a member of the Sacramento Fire Department, you must always work not just to meet the minimum standard, but to do your very best. Your duty is to commit to excellence in all aspects of your professional responsibility. Part of fulfilling duty is to exercise initiative—anticipating what needs to be done before someone tells you what to do. You must exercise initiative when you fulfill the purpose, not merely the letter, of the tasks assigned you and the orders you have received. The task is not complete until you achieve the intended outcome. Conscientiousness is the internalization of duty. Conscientiousness means having a high sense of responsibility for your personal contributions to the Sacramento Fire Department, demonstrated through dedicated effort, organization, thoroughness, reliability, and practicality. Your own conscientiousness consistently alerts you to do what is right—even when you are tried or demoralized. In rare cases, your sense of duty also has to detect and prevent an illegal order. Duty requires refusal to obey. The Sacramento Fire Department has no choice but to do what is ethically and legally right. Treat people as they should be treated. Respect for the individual is the basis for the rule of law—the very essence of what the nation stands for. Respect means you must treat others as they should be treated—with dignity and respect. Over the course of history, America has become more culturally diverse, requiring firefighters to deal with people from a wider range of ethnic, racial, and religious backgrounds. You must prevent misunderstandings arising from cultural difference. Actively seek to learn about people whose culture is different. Be sensitive to other cultures. This will help you in mentoring, coaching, and counseling team members. See things from their perspective, and appreciate what is important to them. #RandolphHarris 17 of 24

The Sacramento Fire Department consistently fosters a climate in which everyone is treated with dignity and respect, regardless of race, gender, creed, or religious belief. Fostering a balanced and dignified work climate begins with your personal example. How you live the Sacramento Fire Department values shows subordinates how they should behave. Teaching values is one of your most important responsibilities. It helps create a common understand of the Sacramento Fire Departments Values and standards. The discipline which makes the Sacramento Fire Department reliable is not gained by harsh or tyrannical treatment. On the contrary, such treatment is far more likely to destroy than to make a fire department. The Sacramento Fire Department imparts instruction and gives commands in such a manner and such a tone of voice to inspire in the firefighters and EMTs no feeling but an intense desire to obey, while the opposite manner and tone of voice cannot fail to excite strong resentment and a desire to disobey. The one mode or other of dealing with crew members springs from a corresponding split in the heart of the captain. He or she who feels the respect which is due to others cannot fail to inspire in them regard for himself or herself, while he or she who feels, and hence manifest, disrespect toward others, cannot fail to inspire hated against him or herself. “I got married within months of getting appointed to the department. My wife didn’t know much about the job, just that I wanted to get into the Sacramento Fire Department. I think it’s difficult for any wife to get used to the idea of her husband living with another family. #RandolphHarris 18 of 24

“I realized immediately, even going to a slow company, that although firefighters are strangers at the outset, they become very close very quickly. It has a tremendous impact on your life, whether you want it to or not. Do I live here, or do I live there? But I live in both places, split equal time. It’s not like going to a factory and filling up a cardboard box with something, then putting tape on it and sending it out the shipping door, and you can’t wait to get out of there. This is totally the opposite. Going into the camaraderie of living with the other family in the firehouse is not that easy. I guess that wives, when they talk among themselves, feel that the husbands talk about things at the firehouse before they would discuss it at home, whatever the subject. I think a lot of families have trouble dealing with that. It’s not easy to say, ‘Wait a minute, I don’t care about the salary, the only reason I took this job was because I want to do it, I like it, and now that I’m doing it I like it even more. So don’t crowd my territory, please. If I like being in this family at the firehouse, let me be.’ But unless somebody loves there in the firehouse and goes through it, I don’t think they can see it. I think that wives sometimes mistakenly believe you’re trying to push them aside. We have four young children. I certainly wouldn’t tell them to take this job because their father loves it. I think they’re under more pressure than when we were their age. Television and movies have an unbelievable influence on them practically from the day they’re born. They’re still young. The oldest guy is interested right not in the sciences and astronomy and outer space and the whole NASA program. Like firefighting, it’s a challenge but of something else, where you’re taking your life in your hands and going out into the unknown. All I’d want to tell the kids is, do what you want, as long as you like what you’re doing. That’s the most I can do, not try to push them in one direction or another, in some kind of vicarious situation where I wish it was me.” #RandolphHarris 19 of 24

The proud members of the Sacramento Fire Department are committed to providing the highest quality and highest level of courteous and responsive services to the residents, businesses, and visitors of Sacramento. This is accomplished by implementing comprehensive strategies and training in fire prevention, fire suppression, emergency medical services, and all risk mitigation, including human-caused and natural disasters, emergency preparedness, emergency cervices and community-based fire services. The Sacramento Fire Department physical requirements for the firefighters and EMTs state that you must be medically and physically fit, and able to pass the Occupational Physical Assessment Test. Therefore, physical and mental toughness are just the basic requirements. You achieve excellence when you habitually show discipline and commitment to the department’s values. Individuals and organizations pursue excellence to improve. The Sacramento Fire Department cherishes leaders of character who are good role models, consistently set the example, and accomplish the mission while improving their skills. The values of the Sacramento Fire Department are never tested more strenuously than during times of crisis. Those who can keep a level head and act with character, particularly in the face of grave danger, testify to the importance of the values of the Sacramento Fire Department. #RandolphHarris 20 of 24

Having the Southern American boarder open and not having American farmland protected, not producing beef, poultry, fish, fruit, produce and dairy in America, and without American goods and services being our number one manufactured and selling items, America has created a dangerous and significantly elevated risks to national security, national economic security, and national public health. Some people may believe that these claims are overstated, but by not routinely monitoring Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CEVs) or other security relevant alerts, such as end-of-life of machinery is how the Oroville Dam Crisis occurred in 2017. Other crises that have occurred due to neglect of critical infrastructure is the 2025 Palisades fires because Southern California ran out of water, when they are located next to an ocean and they could have simply created desalinating plants to help with the water shortage. The water is so plentiful that it is currently eroding land and causing homes to fall into the sea. American government should know all exploitable vulnerabilities and fix them prior to the situation becoming a crisis. Failure to take such mitigating actions is dangerous and significantly elevates risk to national security, national economic security, and national public health and safety. The American government must understand that significant time and resources must be invested in America. They must also encourage corporations to plan for both mitigating safety vulnerabilities in the short term and eliminating them in the long term. For instance, a company might begin by reaching out to the federal, state or local government and requesting tax incentives to provide security to dangerous communities, to help the government repair bridges and potholes. #RandolphHarris 21 of 24

America needs an approach to eliminate safety vulnerabilities in American cities. There needs to be a road map by the end of 2025, outlining a prioritized approach to eliminate crisis situations in America. There is enough money to send aid to foreign nations, but the American government does not have enough money to care their infrastructure, provide adequate resources, nor end the affordable housing crisis. Nor is there enough money to fund other national critical functions (NCFs). These bad practices of putting America and Americans last is considered exceptionally risky, particularly to national security, national economic security, and national public healthy and safety. In 2024, Americans spent $100 billion on Japanese cars. In an effort to help America pull through the massive national deficit, please buy American made cars. American made cars used to be the envy of the World and because American car brands are offering a wide range of options, from family SUVs to electric vehicles and luxury sedans, we are now seeing a resurging interest. American made cars are equal or superior to those made overseas. The Chevrolet Trax, for instance, is a well-designed, fuel efficient, and safe SUV. And as you know, there is no better car on Earth than 1950-1970s American Muscle Car. Americans make sure superior product, but we are buying things from other nations. American food imports have risen by 300 percent since 1999. American farmland declined by nearly 20 million acres between 2017 and 2022. As of 2022, there were 880.1 million acres of land dedicated to farming, compared to 900.1 million in 2017. The data shows there are now little more than 1.9 million farms in the country.  Americans and American corporations spent $136 billion on food and beverages from other countries. It is a national security risk to lose American Farms and farmers. If there is a war, and most of our meat, produce, poultry, dairy, and fruit is coming from foreign counties, we stand the risk of starving. #RandolphHarris 22 of 24

With war breaking out all over the World, in these uncertain times, it is very important to bring American farms back. We can protect American farmland and support American farmers by buying American made beef, poultry, dairy, and produce. As money flows, it influences further investment. Save the land that sustains us by protecting American farmland. Once the land is built on, we lose it forever.  And in the future, there may be food wars. Also, to ensure that we have farmland for future use, we need to start limiting the number of people allowed to immigrant to America. Perhaps with the immigrants we do allow into America, there needs to be a diversity program to make sure we have a populations that equally represents all races of people. If Americans continue to spend money on American products, then more need to be made to keep up the inventory. When investors notice these goods are selling, it gives them the confidence to pour more money into that local business. It shows that people want these goods made in America and pressures investors to keep these goods and services in America. The jobs stay here, the business stays in American, wages naturally increase, and more money is invested to keep up with demand. This reduces the burden on the taxpayer. When you support American businesses, that money stays in our economy and can help to reduce the national debt. The government creates debt by borrowing from businesses in the private sector or from foreign countries. It also increases the national debt by spending more than it gains in tax revenue in a fiscal year. When people shop locally, more tax money stays in the economy and goes to the government. This way, it keeps more money in our national economy and keeps more jobs located in American which also sends more taxes to the government, which can again help to reduce the national debt. #RandolphHarris 23 of 24

When you buy foreign goods, these companies usually have lighter tax loads or exemptions, meaning less money for the nation debt, plus you are helping to strengthen these foreign nations by send more money overseas. Buying American made products is also better for the environment and helps to reduce the carbon footprint because these products do not have to travel nearly as far. Furthermore, American companies and manufacturers are held to much higher standards in regard to pollution. American companies have to be more careful about air, land, and water pollution and have proper ways to dispose of waste. Moreover, please remember to respect law and order and treat your elders with the utmost dignity and kindness possible. And take your education seriously so that you will be successful in life and make your family proud. It is inborn in the human minds to wish to know. If this begins with the endless surface questions of a child’s curiosity, if it continues into deeper questions of a scientist’s probing investigation, it cannot and does not stop there. For the higher part of the mind will eventually come into unfoldment, that union of abstract reflective thought with mystical intuition, which is true intelligence, which needs and sees a view of the whole of things. And so, the knowing faculty enters the realm of philosophy. As a reminder, parents, pleasure teach your children love America and be patriotic citizens and to buy goods and services made in America. It is also important to respect law and order and treat your elders with respect. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. #RandolphHarris 24 of 24
