What checks do unfettered capitalists see as valid checks upon unfettered capitalists? What state intrusions upon functioning businesses are seen as too much state intrusions upon functioning businesses by the standard bearers of state protection? Protect the individual from the all encompassing state, protect the individual from the strangling tentacles of self serving business? Of the partisans, hear no evil…see no evil….the magic mirrors of the faithful reflect only beauty. All trust is true trust.
People wonder. Support those who work against their own interests? Threats to Labor’s protection see it melting away with the toxic wastes of the viral abusers. The dictation of policy and rules and turning employers and managers into employees comes hard charging and virulent. Freedom to prosper as one wishes brings the need for paid help and competition sets the rate for needed good help. Do good… need and must pay for good….unless it don’t. Work hard and contribute skills and energies upon which talents and work ethic rest and be not valued but seen as a replicable, replaceable commodity…an undesirable temporarily necessary business evil, expense. Rules from the top down. Rules from the bottom up.
Oligarchies stand in place as they do. They can enforce their positions, as they can. They can convince the mass to let current order work its way through to happy glitzy outcomes for all. Set the message. Sell the message. Indulge the fear. Demonize alternatives. Oligarchies of wealth and power are fun. Oligarchies of power and influence, of dictation and thought, they are fun. The dictation of standards, the dictation of living standards, hates and demons are strong. Alternative views are for limp wristed thinkers. are worse. Hates are strong, give muscle, breeding, force, power. They give the most pleasure, the fun of all. Virulent hate of virulent enemies keeps our games going and our turkeys screeching. Hate is the mustard on the hot dog of hate..

Dominance Games: Our grand national dream

We will celebrate our proud heritage of freedom and liberty by redefining the words to mean, as always, freedom from all views with which we disagree and liberty to call all adversaries evil and unpatriotic……. if history can be written by the winners than the definition of true Americanism can be coined by the speakers, the spinners, the propagandists.
In this season of our grand national dream we have set the table for a winner take all, no holds barred, totally gamed and cynical system of representation where the most ideological and least pragmatic, responsible, mature, understanding among us get to work their personal hates and dislikes to the detriment of all else.
Politics is not at all the profession of governance…it is the profession of in your face meanness and close minded self righteous bores.
They have won the system and they wish to be the best gamers of same. There is no practical incentive for any real change. The criers who bemoan the power of the wings and come out in favor of promoting voice foe the possibly responsible middle disappear when they may have the actual ability to act as they too seem to just wish their enemies no good. They, too, talk good, act not at all.
The electorate does not give a damn about the machinations of the political and is ignorant of how they are gamed. they think the system is some approximation of responsible democracy.
As always in celebration of independence….Welcome to freedom.
