My Life on this planet.

This week, there was an assult by two men in a gay bar in Brussels. As I feared might happen more in future happened this week on a small scale in Brussels: two men entered the gay bar "Le Fontainas" in Brussels and started to insult the people. One barman defended the customers in the bar although a little too heavy: he used a knive and wounded one of the guys. There are now two possible directions: these two men will understand they can't insult people because they are differently and they will stop insulting people in future; or these two men will become even more agressive towards gay people who they find are indeed agressive and next time they might invite more friends to insult (or even damage) gay(-friendly) people as they might show no mercy and no forgiveness. The revolutions in the Middle East might worsen the problem: many people try to escape the violence in their country and come to Europe. And instead of being greatful for being allowed into Europ

In the first part of this article about Belgium, I closed with the prediction the rating will go down after an agreement would be reached and a government formed because, the markets would claim the solution didn't reach far enough. I was so wrong, the rating went down the same night I wrote that article. And guess what, the next day the politicians negotiated very long and reached a compromise about the budget. (I admire politicians who try to solve the problems while people say they do politics for their own gain (and some do), each politician thinking their ideas are the best while probably a combination of all these ideas would be advisable. However, I dislike those in the financial world who brought the world on its knees (I do not mean the ordinary bankers but those we don't see or know)). The Belgium politicians still have a few more problems to solve (e.g. about migration) and then we can have a government (if it will not all collapse again at the last moment). Then I h

Yesterday evening I went out in Brussels. First I met up with Billy in La Reserve as we promised each other in the afternoon to go out together. After two drinks, we wanted to discover some other places so we left. We went to Homo Erectus, but after one drink we preferred to go somewhere else. We pasted the Rainbowhouse in Brussels. This is a place I never know what goes on: often it is not open or something happens I have no interest in. But yesterday night, the doors were open, we could hear music and it seems there was lots of happy faces and moving bodies. We decided to go inside and noticed it was the Arabian night. This night is ones a month and often I don't know when it goes on. But now I know how good the atmosphere is I will try to find out the date for the next party as it was real fun. I find it very courageous of these people from middle eastern origin to dance in the centre of Brussels where there is still quite some hospitality from a certain population of people

As I mentioned in my previous article about the Three-Power system, I think an economical One-Power system will emerge before another Three-Power system will rise again as it is much better (although a little slower). But I fear also in politics (and other parts of life) are we moving towards a One-Power system (sometimes this is necessary to restore order). I already mentioned that people might start voting for a strong (mostly conservative) leader. Of course a strong leader is needed, but he should always respect the other powers: Parliament and Justice. He should not ignore their powers, claiming they slow down and interfere with the decisions he wants to take. But the other powers also deserve to be respected (and here is a major problem). Here, I will discuss Belgium as an example (a good example to discuss Europe and the rest of the world as three different communities have to work together within a small country). As it is complicated I will discuss it in a number of publica

In my Introduction to these series of publications that said I would talk about a Three-Power system (and an external force). Many people know this system but equally many have forgotten how to use it properly. This system should be used at all levels: politics, economics, education, ... . However, recently I noticed one of the reasons why we are in the current mess is because we neglected this system of the Three-Powers (most importantly, respect for each power is essential), while many things start to become a One-Power system (or dictatorship) .  Here I will explain why I fear everything will evolve into this One-Power system until an external force will bring a correction upon this One-Force system so we can re-introduce the Three-Power system, restoring the balans, and the external force can rethreat until it is needed ones again. Recently, the French-Belgium bank Dexia almost went bankrupt if the French and Belgium governments would not have interfered (such as they did d

I do not understand humans anymore, and especially those who earn lots of money, often the so called bankers and economics. I will explain this via the automatic wage indexation system, something that we still use in Belgium but a growing number of politicians, business people and some ordinary people are saying it should disappear as it is damaging the economy. In this article I will try to explain why I think it is wrong to stop this system, and why I believe it is one of the best systems ever. But, indeed, there is one system that should disappear: the bonus system as that destroys the whole financial system because it blinds people. In Belgium, the automatic wage indexation system is used to calculate and changes our salaries. This is a system whereby the wages and salaries are automatically adjusted according to inflation (or deflation). This means that the price evolution of a number of products (but not all) determine the evolution of wages and salaries. Whenever changes in

Over the next days, weeks, months I am planning to write some articles in relation to my views about the current economic and social problems (it might take that long as I am a little lazy, I am bad in expressing my ideas in writing and mainly because the problems and hence possible solutions to these problems are very complicated, forcing me to think very carefully before publishing anything as I notice sometimes that for one problem I need a solution that is the opposite to another problem making it very difficult to write things down without the solutions contradicting each other). Some weeks ago, I marched with the Indignados (see a previous article) to ask for a better society (although we knew those with the big money would call us idiots). Now I would also like to contribute towards a solution. I hope some of these articles in my blog might help others to form an answer for some of the many problems. This article will give an introduction of some of the features I might discu

Over the past three years I read some blogs written by fundamentalist Christian (and other religious) groups. Many of these people are angry and they hope the worst possible will happen in the world. One of the reasons they deny climate change is because they are hoping the prophecies described in the Bible will happen. This will allow them to claim they really believe in God and so the chosen person might choose them to rule together with him (how wrong they might be). Religious fanatics even try to force the predicted events to happen (e.g. burning Holy Books of other religions or worse, killing their people), even when He says He wants to set the date (what means He can change the date if we behave well). Thus, fundamentalists disobey God. In this article I want to demonstrate how wrong these fundamentalists are, but as they are fundamentalists, they will not listen to reason. They might become angry while reading this article because they want to show God how much they only love G
