WHO/WHAT WE ARE

We are a U.S. public-policy monthly discussion group founded in the Fall of 2005 that meets on the third Wednesday of each month (with adjustments to avoid secular/religious holidays).

Since February 2020, we have met via Zoom. [For the first 14.5 years of our existence, we met at the Salt Lake City Library (210 East 400 South) with remote participation via Skype.]

The topic is selected by the attendees of the previous month’s meeting. The focus is usually a book but frequently comprises only news items from magazines/newspapers/etc. This bulletin board serves, inter alia, as a place for members to post comments or additional reference materials prior to each meeting.

Our attendance averages 11-12. Participants come from all walks of life but our regular attendees include 4 attorneys and 3 scientists.

There are approx. 225 recipients of our weekly newsletter, many of whom reside outside Utah and participate by Zoom.

*****
40 SIX-DEGREES-OF-SEPARATION E-MAIL CAMPAIGNS, 4 REPORTS & 9 REPRISES

We take great pride in our Six-Degrees-Of-Separation E-mail campaigns to America's decision makers which, with only a few computer keyboard key strokes, can be sent by each of our members (1) to the decision maker, and (2) to all of the member's friends and acquaintances requesting them to do the same in an unending chain.

Accordingly, we also take great pride that each of our official recommendations has been approved unanimously at one of our meetings or, at most, received only one dissent.

All 40 e-mail campaigns over the years are collected in this section. They include 10 e-mails sent by John Karls that did not receive an official endorsement for the rest of our members to send. The titles of the 30 official recommendations are ALL CAPS and the titles of 10 unofficial recommendations are lower case.

The date of the meeting at which each of the 40 campaigns was adopted is listed so that voluminous additional information about that campaign can be accessed by scrolling down to the sections of this bulletin board that relate to that meeting.

In addition, there are four items whose descriptions begin with “REPORT.” They are reports of our Great Salt Lake Working Group which was formed IAW our “Short-Time Fuse” procedures described in the next section of this bulletin board.

There is also a 1/20/2021 “Report” of our JCPOA Working Group.

Finally, there are eight items whose descriptions begin with “REPRISE.” They describe additional actions that were taken IAW previous official e-mail campaigns to bring their approved policies to the attention of additional decision makers.

9/20/2023: LETTER TO PRESIDENT BIDEN RE THE UNITED NATIONS WAR ON MODERN SLAVERY

Post by johnkarls »

One of the decisions taken at our 9/20/2023 meeting was to send a letter to President Biden regarding the 23-year-old United Nations’ War on Modern Slavery (please see our Meeting Report at viewtopic.php?f=760&t=2399&sid=5fb4a949 ... c8c71ca23d).

Our 9/18/2019 meeting four years ago focused on the United Nations “War on Modern Slavery” which we have since often summarized as follows from the U.N. Biennial Reports on “Trafficking in Persons” and a book by the Director of the Harvard U. Kennedy School of Government’s “Program on Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery” –

(A) Trafficking human slaves is more profitable for organized crime than illegal guns or illegal drugs.

(B) There are more slaves today than ever throughout history!!!

(C) Indeed, at least TWICE AS MANY people are CURRENTLY TRAPPED in some form of slavery as were traded throughout the 350 years of the transatlantic slave industry!!!

(D) And virtually all of the slaves come from refugee camps where they are easily enticed by the false promise of a better life!!!

(E) Indeed, the retail price of a slave delivered in the U.S. is only $5,250 as a result of which the average price of a sex act is only $27.50 which has unleashed incredible demand!!!

(F) And the average sex slave performs 3,296 sex acts per year for $90,648 of gross income which means that the net return after expenses (meals, bribery of officials, etc.) is an ANNUAL net profit of MANY TIMES the initial investment – with no workforce training!!!

(G) Of course, you can use your slave for anything you want including working in your vineyard or on your farm or in your factory under whatever inhumane working conditions you like and, of course, for no remuneration other than enough calories to keep the slave alive!!!

(H) AND QUITE A FEW SLAVES ARE PURCHASED FOR ORGAN HARVESTING!!!

(I) The average sex slave is dead by age 35!!!


**********
Following our 9/18/2019 meeting four years ago, we launched one of our Six-Degrees-Of-Separation E-mail Campaigns to President Trump suggesting how the U.S. could assist the UN’s War on Modern Slavery (please see viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1828&sid=5fb4a9499 ... c8c71ca23d).

At our 9/20/2023 meeting, as recorded in the Meeting Report (cross-link in the first paragraph of this posting), one of the decisions taken was that since the content of the e-mail campaign to President Trump is still current, a letter should be sent to President Biden with the same content.

Here is a copy of that letter –
