Lyndon LaRouche's "The Power of Labor" - Part 2
Last week LaRouchePAC presented Part 1 of Lyndon LaRouche’s five-part educational series on the science of physical economy. The series was developed and presented by LaRouche in 1984, when he was a candidate for President of the United States.
At that time, the U.S. was facing the serious threat of global warfare and economic ruin, as effects of the financial crisis brought on by the collapse of the Bretton Woods system. Inflation was rampant, production was collapsing, and the monetarist policies that we now know as globalism and financialization were beginning to take hold.
As a leading economist who had forecast the economic and political crisis that was then unfolding, LaRouche knew that the American people and their policy-makers must radically change their concept of economics, from monetarism to the science of physical economy. Otherwise, the United States and the world could very easily slip into war and depression. Hence, the production of this ground-breaking class series.
Part 1 of this series, which focused on the concept of potential relative population density can be found below.
In Part 2, LaRouche presents the scientific basis for a functioning economy that is based on technological progress, and the conditions
that must be met to avoid physical collapse.
It is highly recommended that prior to the class, you download the charts used by LaRouche in Part 2.

The Monday Brief - Join the Wall of Fire Around The Republic - April 15, 2024
Subscribe to our FREE email newsletter @ www.PrometheanAction.com
Today's episode, delivered on a significant Monday, depicts the ongoing struggle for the United States' future, drawing inspiration from the biblical verse Zechariah 2:5 to rally support. It critiques the post-World War II global strategy led by the US, under Harry S. Truman, aimed at supporting the British financial empire, marking the beginning of a 'new dark age.' The narrative points to a shift in 2016 with Donald Trump's election, highlighting a populist uprising against an oligarchical system and corrupt elites.

LaRouche's Breakthrough Class on Economics - The Power of Labor, Part 1
Get our *FREE* newsletter at www.PrometheanAction.com
In 1984, Lyndon LaRouche, then running for U.S. President, produced a five-part video lecture series on the basic principles of economics called “The Power of Labor.” In that series, LaRouche presents the fundamentals of his science of physical economy. That science, which is rooted in the first book of Genesis, is centered on a rigorous proof of the relationship between the creative powers of the human mind and the physical development of the earth, life and mankind.
Though much has changed in the intervening 40 years, the principles LaRouche presents in this lecture series are necessary to understand and develop solutions for today’s crisis.
Therefore, Promethean Action will make this lecture series the focus of our regular Saturday evening class series. For the next five weeks, beginning tonight, we will show successive sections from “The Power of Labor,” accompanied by a live question and answer session. Tonight’s Q&A will be led by Bruce Director and Tony Papert.

This week is a determinative historic week in Congress where we really can change the nation's direction. FISA, the foundation, with EO 12333, for our surveillance mind control regime is up for renewal in a pitched battle. We can return to the Fourth Amendment of the founders. Ukraine funding will come up. We can end the forever wars. The only reason these aren't rubber stamped is only because of the ongoing revolt of The People. No time for summer soldiers or sunshine patriots who shrink from the great moment before them.

The New Frontier and Fusion Rockets
Subscribe to our FREE newsletter at www.PrometheanAction.com
In 1988, Lyndon LaRouche outlined a 40-year national project to build a city on Mars. Naturally, the oligarchy panned his proposal as the nonsense of a crackpot. Yet, in 2017, most of LaRouche’s “crackpot” ideas were turned into President Donald Trump’s Space Policy Directive 1. That directive made it American national policy to expand our current permanent human presence in Low Earth Orbit, to a permanent human presence on the Moon. And, it further directed that the permanent human Lunar operations in turn, will serve as the proving ground for the human exploration of Mars.
Despite the intervening decades since our last human explorations of the Moon, we do not yet have the technical and logistical capabilities to permanently operate on the Moon, not to mention Mars. In Saturday evening’s class, Michael Carr and Kevin Zondervan will discuss the emerging new technologies—in particular, the fusion rockets which will turn the Promethean initiatives of LaRouche and Trump into reality, and thereby transform life on Earth and in the Solar System.

The New Roman Empire and the Thirst for War
What drives the current insane wars in Ukraine and elsewhere? Not the things you see reported. There is a fundamental difference between British oligarchs and their minions, like Obama and Biden, and those who exhibit an almost spiritual calling to save this nation and now back Trump. The Roman Empire ran wars of destruction and looting to sustain their riches and control the people. Our entire government is based on the idea that God gives each individual power to participate in his creation. The state exists to foster those powers. That's what these wars mean to destroy. Mike Steger discusses this here.

We are Living in a Time of Breakthroughs: Take Fusion Energy
The 60-year attempt to stop progress and push us backward into third world status is coming to an end. The containment is breaking apart, but people don’t yet know about it: Elon Musk’s revolutionary Starship will soon be able to take us to the Moon, and later Mars, under President Trump’s Artemis Project, while the first contracts have already been signed for fusion power to provide limitless and virtually free energy.
Fusion energy will begin to revolutionize society and economy during President Trump’s second term, and MAGA leaders and Americans generally should begin to learn about it now.

Does Gen Z have a future?
Subscribe to our newsletter at https://www.prometheanaction.com
In this discussion hosted by Susan Kokinda with guest Brian Lantz, the conversation revolves around the implications of Donald Trump's Agenda 47 policies if he becomes the 47th president, in contrast to the Heritage Foundation's proposals. Kokinda and Lantz explore how Trump's policies and national mission, particularly his focus on space exploration and energy innovation, offer a sense of optimism and a promising future for Generation Z, who currently face a pessimistic outlook under prevailing policies. They criticize the Heritage Foundation's report for lacking a vision for a national mission and promoting a gig economy, which they argue would not support a stable or prosperous future for the younger generation. The discussion highlights the importance of creating a future that includes high-paying, skilled jobs and addresses the housing market issues that concern younger Americans, emphasizing that Trump’s agenda, unlike the Heritage Foundation’s, aligns with the broader American vision of progression and innovation.

Today's episode starts with the idea of walking across a huge canyon on a tightrope. Below, wars rage, the working class and middle classes across the world function under stifling inflation and revolt, An entire generation, Gen Z says they don't believe they have a future. The insane oligarchs want to continue their world below and toy with nuclear war because any discussion of the true situation in Ukraine, to cite but one example would end their careers. If you look down, persistently on that tight rope, you will fall. If on the other hand you build, step by step, based on a future you are constructing on the other side, you will get there Trump's Agenda 47 provides the vision we need to build on. A major battle takes place today over free speech in the Supreme Court, the foundation for rebuilding the nation.

We are the Firebringers — Shut Down the Financial Dictatorship
Many, MANY Americans have lost all hope that the financial ruling class which currently controls our institutions and dictates government policy can be dislodged.
Small victories might be won; certain positive reforms might be accomplished; the worst of the evils might be delayed or beaten back; but the idea of VICTORY over this oligarchy, removing them entirely from the levers of power, is almost never entertained by our fellow citizens, or perhaps by many of us.
Two weeks ago we looked at the economics of Benjamin Franklin. This Saturday we will consider what it will take to realize Franklin's vision and to rescue our nation today. The subject is: "By what means can we carry out the greatest economic Renaissance in our history and provide hope and opportunity for all Americans?"
Join us for this important discussion.

How the Real Monroe Doctrine Could Block Biden's War Drive
Speaker: Tony Papert, Promethean Action Associate. -- As Joe Biden's blundering drives us headlong toward nuclear war, how do we counter these madmen and their ilk? There is no threat to the U.S. from Europe or Asia in reality. This is only the sucker role played by the U.S. for Britain geopolitical designs since the end of World War II. Before that, our founders and most U.S.presidents adhered to the Monroe Doctrine as understood by John Quincy Adams, not the one you heard in school. Understanding this is now urgent.
---
After all of Biden’s screaming about Putin, Trump and Hitler in his so-called State
of the Union, you can’t help wondering whether he just might be crazy enough to
send US troops to fight in Ukraine, as Ukraine’s army crumbles away.
Citizens and Congressmen had better keep their eyes peeled, and patriotic military
officers—there are plenty of them—review the difference between lawful and
unlawful orders, and their oath to the Constitution.
In any case, sending guns to kill Russians in Ukraine endangers American security,
rather than preserving it. America faces no security threat now in Europe, nor in
Asia. Nor in the Middle East, where thousands of our troops are scattered around
in indefensible basis, merely to serve as human tripwires for a war with Iran.
Our open southern border is where our security is threatened now, not overseas.
Rather than manning useless foreign bases we can’t afford, our troops should be
here, manning our southern border as they have for most of our history.
America’s role in the world is not to spread “democracy” through wars in the
Middle East and Europe, while our own elections are stolen from us here at home.
But where does our security lie? Our greatest Presidents knew it lies in building up
this Western hemisphere as the home of advancing, sovereign sister republics. Not
through arms, but through science, trade, technology, and example. If the one
billion people who live here are as ready and able to defend their nations’
sovereignties as we are, surely we can repel any future threats from Europe or
Asia.
There is also a vital economic dimension. To recreate America as an industrial
superpower as President Trump has promised in his “Agenda 47”
https://www.larouchepac.com/trump_s_agenda_47 for his second term, we will
need large-scale markets for our advanced capital-goods exports. But with Europe
and China in recession or depression, where can these markets be found? Here in
the Americas! Presidents John Quincy Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Garfield,
McKinley, Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy understood this. You will too.

What You See is Not What You Get — The Lessons of Thomas Starr King
What do lectures on the topics of "Sight and Insight," "Substance and Show," and "Socrates" have to do with winning the Civil War and saving the nation? Between 1860 and 1864, Thomas Starr King crushed secessionists and copperheads in California and immeasurably advanced the union cause. He did this by organizing citizens on the highest level, igniting patriotic fervor and uplifting people to recognize their creative potential.
Join us on Saturday for a thought-provoking discussion of why this is of great relevance for all of us today.

What Ben Franklin Can Teach Us about Economics
Under the Biden regime, America has experienced an unprecedented destruction of her productive economy.
At the same time, the Heritage Foundation and other propaganda arms of the oligarchical "free market" (better known as the flea market) crowd are attempting to seize control of the economic agenda of a second Trump Administration. They wish to jettison Trump's Agenda47 and substitute the economic ruin of British imperial finance.
Let us learn from Benjamin Franklin! He created the American system of public Credit, and he demonstrated that actual wealth lies not in monetary values, but is found in the continual advance of science, manufacturing and the productive potential of the nation.
Join us for this important discussion.

LaRouche: Mars is the Shared Mission for All Mankind
With the space age upon us, it's now time to consider "what is good for humanity?" "what will advance our species, all of us?" instead of just "what is good for my country?" or "how can we take the lead?" This is Lyndon LaRouche's approach to statecraft. He's always asked, "what is unique about the human species, and how to do we bring out the best in each culture to advance our common aims?" In this 2009 webcast excerpt, LaRouche discusses practical answers to that question, in terms of policy and economics, and also the philosophical aspects of this idea.

Where Globalism Goes to Die
The resurgence of a nation, like its creation, is a miracle to behold! For those who haven't seen President of El Salvador Nayib Bukele's powerful speech from the CPAC conference, watch it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOFErQLbd8k
He not only outmaneuvered the political establishment to get elected, but he outflanked the international globalists and their drug cartels and gangs too. After turning the murder capital of the world into the safest country in the western hemisphere over the last four years, he was just reelected with 85% of the vote! If El Salvador can do it, why can't we?
In his speech, he calls for ending the US Federal Reserve central banking system, which is sinking the U.S. dollar, and for major structural reforms under the next President.
This is what Donald Trump is capable of, and what Lyndon LaRouche advocated for over five decades.
It's not only necessary, but it is increasingly possible. This potential defines the world strategic moment!
Join us tonight.

Inside the Censorship Industrial Mechanism
Watch the original interview with Mike Benz and Tucker Carlson here: https://tuckercarlson.com/uncensored-the-national-security-state-the-inversion-of-democracy/
Barbara Boyd discusses the role of former Trump administration speechwriter, Mike Benz, in revealing the measures taken within the U.S security state to control and censor discussions on the internet. According to Benz, these measures are akin to a military intervention by the Pentagon against the American populace. He illustrates how the internet is being utilized in 'hybrid warfare' for overthrowing governments and controlling information flow, a practice that was significantly amplified post the 2016 election (Trump's victory and Brexit). Benz also speaks about the manipulation of the narrative of protests in Europe and the US by deferring the blame onto Russia. Furthermore, he explores how the failure of 'color revolutions' led to doubts about free speech and catalyzed the development of a sophisticated system for citizen censorship. Benz provides a detailed account of how this censorship mechanism functions in tandem with various educational institutions, government offshoots, and military programs, all funded by national and international governments. He concludes by calling for further investigation into these systems and their ultimate dismantling.
