Creating the Trans-Pacific Fusion Economy
The LaRouchePAC Basement Research Team held a webcast on Dec. 6, 2013, under the above title, featuring presentations by Benjamin Deniston and Meghan Rouillard. Moderator Jason Ross opened with a quote from the American economist Henry Carey's 1851 pamphlet, ``The Harmony of Interest,'' which identified ``two systems'' before the world: one, the British System, which ``looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism''; the other, the American System: ``the only one ever devised the tendency of which was that of elevating, while equalizing, the condition of man throughout the world.''
Once again, said Ross, ``two systems are before the world, which present themselves today as the trans-Atlantic world and the Pacific orientation.''
The two presentations reproduced below (edited for EIR), represent the intention to revive the American System of economic advancement and scientific discovery on behalf of the general welfare.

A New Idea of
Physical-Economic Progress

Benjamin Deniston: We're going to engage in a discussion on the prospects for creating a new, global economic system. And looking at the reality of the shift already ongoing toward the Asia-Pacific region of the planet, we have a serious orientation toward growth, toward progress. We're going to discuss both the specific projects involved in this pro-development Pacific orientation, and the governing economic principles, the concepts, the new ideas that need to govern this new era of development of mankind....

This Week's Cover

  • Creating the Trans-Pacific Fusion Economy
    The LaRouchePAC 'Basement' Science Research Team gave a webcast on Dec. 5 on prospects for high-technology development in the future. This is the presentation by Benjamin Deniston. 'What we have focused on in our work with Lyndon LaRouche, on the prospect for this development program to be made a reality,' he said, 'is the key role of fusion power as the driver. And to get into that, and some of the related issues, I'm going to discuss the need to develop a new idea of physical economic progress, a concept that I think has been lost to many Americans following the past decades of zero-growth ideology.
  • As Eurasia Advances, Will the United States Get on Board?
    Meghan Rouillard contrasts the trans-Asian perspective of scientific and infrastructural development, and the sinking ship of trans-Atlantic monetarism.

  • The Strategy for the New Year
    by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

    'The New Year of 2014 brings with it, the presently, highly possible, even likely, early threat of a global thermonuclear warfare of coincident, but contrary motives, those between the leading, Anglo-Dutch-led imperialist forces of the presently trans-Atlanticcentered alliances, and the contrary, defensively motivated aims of its trans-Pacific-centered opposition. . . . The most relevant strategic facts of the matter are presently known among, notably, relevant strategists from among the patriots of the United States. What threatens to be lacking, is the effective chorus of those public voices which know, but who have difficulty in delivering an efficient public voice in a timely fashion.'

  • Without Glass-Steagall, 2014 Will Bring Mass Death to U.S.
    The record at year's end: cuts to health-care providers, elimination of 'unnecessary' hospital visits; cuts in food stamp benefits for low-income Americans; cut-off of unemployment compensation to 1.3 million long-term unemployed. The old, sick, and poor, are being thrown on the scrap heap—to line Wall Street's coffers.
  • Federal Court Reversal:
    Coverup of Saudi Role in 9/11 Finally Begins To Crumble

    With a Federal Appeals Court ruling, allowing the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to be sued for damages over the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the lid is finally coming off the 12-year coverup, perpetuated under both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, regarding what really happened in September 2001.
