- "Fascism should more appropriately be called
corporatism
because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito
Mussolini
-
- This is indeed a fascinatingly and disgusting story -
premised on absolute control over all people. Back when people were
actually
almost "free" (immediately after WWII), when public education
was not just another empty promise - and the trend in life was toward a
better tomorrow for everyone - at that time "control" was in
retreat, and progress was the theme of every hour. Now what we have is
control of every idiotic facet of everyday existence - rules for every
waking act, every thought that is not controlled is seen as the enemy of
the state (the corporatocracy).
-
- Our entire way of life has been stolen and shall never
return to the lazy and hopeful days of living and loving, of joy and
promise,
with the possibility for doing real and meaningful things with one's own
life - not to mention being able to envision a better world for more and
more people - whose lives were so far below the levels we enjoyed. Instead
of that promise, instead of that possibility - what we have now is the
outright worship of Mistrust, of Fear, and of Paranoia - along with obscene
profits for those who have purchased all the politicians, and who control
every facet of this once nearly free society.
-
- If American life were a sporting event - today's game
would be one in which all the officials and the referees had all been
pre-purchased
by what would obviously be the winning team. Now companies
"police"
their own activities, deciding for themselves when they've gone too far
- or stolen too much. The original point behind government providing a
watchdog over industry - was to keep the playing fields equal - between
players and owners. Now the games continue but only the owners win anything
- the players are degenerating from just being slaves to becoming everyday
targets for anyone who hates their owners: Hence the Iraq's of this world
will focus the herd's mind on what it really means to be an American today
(a blood-stained thug, whether in a uniform or with a contract and a pen)
- we are attempting to steal all that's still sacred - in what has become
a profane and truth-less world.
-
- Like Humpty-Dumpty we will never be able to put the world
back together again - not here anyhow. Too much has been lost in too many
generations that have passed through this new agenda of "me first,
me only." In that process all guidelines have been destroyed, and
there is no longer any "out-of-bounds" - everything is now fair
game: and now the world KNOWS this for what it actually means, which is
a rather subdued type of anarchy that favors only the very rich.
-
- Whether nationally or internationally, what we have consecrated by our actions is the outlaw behavior of the corporatocracy - world
wide.
It is therefore not surprising that Bush would want to claim the mantle
of 'Dictator for All the Known World,' even though he is nothing but the
token puppet in the front row.
-
- He can do this because the bought and paid for US
Congress
will not really give him any trouble (if they did they'd all be charged
with aiding and abetting all the crimes committed so far) - and the courts
have already made clear their preferences: so the only thing left in
opposition
is the besieged and downtrodden public. Those same people who must pay
for all this criminality in dollars and in blood.
-
- However - the public listens to the mouthpiece that has
become the outlaws wholly owned whore. Completely owned and operated by
those same interests that are behind the corruption - what they tell the
world has little to do with actual truth, or the facts of anything that
happens in the world today. If the public is to understand anything at
all - then they will have to rely on their own gut instincts and what they
can find on the net to corroborate or dispute what they suspect. This is
why the games we play today are so fraught with corruption, deception and
duplicity on nearly every side - but - humanity has survived before when
threatened by empirical demands, so perhaps there may yet be an opportunity
to reverse this insanity that has become a cancer on the world. . . If
not then we'll all be returned to the Dark Ages once again (but this time
on a planet that's been nearly destroyed by our lapsed custodianship) -
because we are obviously unfit to manage for ourselves, never mind for
others - in the real life of this world.
