Dominance Games: Afflict the comfortable

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, opinion, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, journalism, power, Public interest, satire on September 8, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Fools and weaklings are of a mind to comfort the afflicted, afflict the comfortable. Communism, socialism, the nanny state, the redistribution of toady-ism, the turning of ones back upon the needs for self justification of the self justified.

The comfortable have no faults, no vices, no needs. The afflicted have no power, no ways to hurt other than to bleed dry those who are not afflicted, have no way to access the spigot of the worlds money trees.

A difference there is between attacking those with power and those without. Those with it had best be able to handle that which they dish out. Those without it had better be able to survive.

Big men and women attack the powerful. Small men and women attack the afflicted. The heart goes with those who challenge the gods. The twisted pleasures of throwing cats off of roofs goes with those who challenge the weak.

Use brains to understand accomplishment. Use civilization to understand the self righteous bores who cant look at a poor person out of work without affixing upon him the blame.

Oligarchies are for winners.

Dominance Games: No such thing as America

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, economics, jobs, labor, Politics, technology with tags analyis, Democracy, Education, Government, power, Public interest, satire on September 7, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

When overseas markets get to be more enticing to business than our good old domestic market then there will be no more incentive to pay a living wage to a living person if that living person can no longer be counted upon to be a living customer.

The only incentives for business to produce jobs is to get labor at a rate that is affordable….no more in cost than in production. the equation for business is profit. Employment is useful only in service to that end. Employment is not an end unto itself. Business gravitates towards monopoly of markets. Business leaders gravitate towards monopoly of production, of resource, of labor, of integrated, reliable means of sustenance.

Labor can be a troglodyte bore, using resentments and revenge to wrest any economic power it can get. Labor also is the only line of defense against a system that, in reality, cannot and does not factor in employment and wages into its model

In the land of the free it is amazing how quickly good wages, benefits, and pensions have become words of derision, contempt, and fear. Economic factors mitigate the wants of workers but when did the race to the bottom, the loss of expectations become a desirable model …… and why is it that those who perceive no personal danger and who always have at least a path to survival are the ones who wish for that low level survival to become something that their neighbor should be thankful to have?

There is no such thing as America. It is a hollow shell that provides fodder and seed capital to those who can play upon the global stage….They are for the efficiency of their markets, the efficiency of their control. They factor in their real world insights and toughness and wish to be kings. Model a middle class? Don’t be absurd. Give me useless bums as serfs and street people any day of the week.

Dominance Games: The damned poor

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political analysis, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, Government, power, Public interest, satire on September 5, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

It is good to be poor. Be poor and the whole world beats a path to your door. The non poor cant but get through a day without fixating on the drag you are on their lives, their taxes, their economy, the pristine glamor of the existence they aspire to and envision. The non poor with a heart can use you to beat over the heads the heartless clods who know that you steal from them and give back nothing in return but mean stares and intimidating walks.

So much energy fixating on the failure of the poor not to be poor, the failure of the poor not to aspire to a well placed job merely at the poverty level. And the poor pay no taxes…..they don’t pay their fair share. of their fair wages….they don’t appreciate that those who are not poor are better than they are and have no obligation to help them. Charity is for those so inclined…not for those who only must take care of their own…..

The social contract… I will be poor and accept it if I think it is a fairly fair distribution of goods and services and if you, you rotten bastards who despise me are strong enough, have force enough for me to accept my lot. I am poor because I cant find a good, workable way out. Lazy is as lazy does. Travel in my shoes you who are better than me . I am poor because I cant game the system any better. Give me no options…what the hell do I got. You charmers …what are my incentives? Your lot is to incentify me to believe that your carrots and sticks are the way of the world. Tomorrow will bring you a better day…if I live that long. Me, it will bring servitude

Many of the poor go along with such things. The power of demonetization, and false prophets.

Dominance Games: A smack in the face

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, Government, power, Public interest, satire on September 4, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

A smack in the face. A slap upside the head. A full roundhouse with mean results. A shiv in the gut. A two by four backside the ribs. A cinder block to crack the back. The lullaby of broad swords.

The cries in the night of the broken and humbled. The whimpers of the weak and scared. Kill wise, street wise .. street smarts, street justice, street rules. Sainted politics unbridled, unhinged, unwanted, unapologetic. Screw civility, decency, respect. This is America, the land of freedom, of rugged individualism, of hard knocks, of mean enemies. This is America, land of tough as nails, go damned hard and mean for it, hell or be damned. This is America, the right place, the right time, the right way to take a buck, break a rival, play the ponies, capture the flag. This is America…cry and be damned. Go to mommy and the sob sisters of poor little you.

Walk down the street, get mugged. Tough. Walk up the street, get jumped and dragged into the weeds. Tough. Stand on the corner and try to find your way…get sideswiped by a truck. Mean guys are in the games with the big prizes. Street wise punks had better get wiser still. Those who deplore the streets are red meat.

Cry the poor little put upon weak politicians.

Dominance Games: The up yours business

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, Government, political commentary, power, Public interest, satire on September 3, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

All of the geniuses have plans. They have economic plans. They have jobs plans. They have plans to get their brother in laws a job.

All of the geniuses promise that if a A happens then B happens then C happens then the stars shine brighter, the sun caresses warmly.

Has there ever been a plan that was anything more than political fodder playing to political wants, hates, prejudice, lust. Has there ever been a plan that had the slightest chance of seeing the light of day once its useful moment has passed, once reality bit it in the wrong place?

Has there ever been a commission that has been more than window dressing? Has there ever been sound words that have not been ignored, lame words that have not been taken to heart.

Plans and commissions are in the gloss over business. The real action is in the up yours business. Follow the hate.

Dominance Games: The rotten entertainment of cystic scum

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, opinion, political analysis, political science, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, economics, Government, power, Public interest, social criticism on August 31, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Drug Cartels funding anti drug campaigns. Political power players funding laws destabilizing the disenfranchised. Those able to manipulate smaller governing bodies favoring anti intrusive small government. Anti government infrastructure movements not wishing money to go to unions. Avowed anti capitalists wishing controls over the work force.

Shadow boxing is always shadow boxing. Tactics are always tactics. Strategy is always strategy. When logic is insufficient in explaining the lack of common sense based outcomes and policies money and power lead the way. When practicality of action and result gets swamped in a morass money and power hoe the road. When suckers get suckered against their own best interests and they are sold the lie, buy the fiction, are put on the market to be bought and sold as the chattel they are, they screech mightily with the joys of groveling pigs.

Big interests have big interests, do things quietly when then can, loudly when they must. Fools have big interests, get played all the time, believe that the interests of the interested who are ready, willing and able to swat them down. The poor put upon feel that the interests of their betters coincide with the interest of the suckers who are fed peanuts and given bread and circuses. Poor drab little lives…. sell what there is of a soul for the rotten entertainment of cystic scum.

Dominance Games: Degenerative politics

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, opinion, political analysis, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, Government, power, Public interest, satire on August 30, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Degenerative politics and lack of reason based dialogue or policies aimed at a broadening of the base of those with a stake in participatory democracy leads quite naturally and quite rationally to politics based upon the obtaining of the love of the more and most virulent of peoples, to going after those few pickings left to be had in ways worthy of necessary survival.

The lesser pies, the lesser options for thought, for belonging, for cultural inclusions, for paths to worthwhile labor, worthwhile opportunity, education, realistic sustainable markets with money, are all there to be met with deadening dismissiveness by those who wish only their accruals of the powers available.

As it is always in such things use of power for power’s sake is an end unto itself. The more firmly based on doctrinaire, unquestioning thought a system may become, the more prone it is to be mastered by those whose strategy is the imposition of stringent rules of behavior, stringent rules for thought, more purity of vision, more muscling out of opposition in the name of holy virtue. The game goes always here to the muscle, the power. The rewards go to the partisans, the toadies. The system goes the way of all such systems …to the dogs of war, the dogs of rulers of might, the dogs of unreasoned arbitrary law.

The power to maximize the shrinking collateral-able resources of a bankrupt society is always the aim of the rats who cannot leave a sinking ship. Strength and intellectual thuggery is always the unthuggish currency, the be all and end all. The rest is all dressed up as excuse.

Dominance Games: American Exceptionalism ll

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, News, opinion, political science, Politics with tags analysis, Democracy, Government, media, power, Public interest, satire on August 25, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

A hell of a great country. The rugged individual, the not so rugged individual can buck the system, pursue prurient dreams, become a hell of man, becomes a hell of a woman.

A hell of a great country. Freedom is an aspiration. Freedom of movement is an act from god. Freedom of thought is an untarnished ideal of angels. Freedom from fools is not always guaranteed.

Work hard and succeed….. when there is work. Think hard and succeed…. when there is education. Charge hard when the road is not blocked. Charge harder when it is. Go out in style when there is no pie left to divvy up.

The sacred images, the ideals, the kind hearts and coronets. The dream lovely, lofty, a giant of a dream. The pursuits of man, of woman, his or her path to greatness…the magnificent cause celeb in human events….. the chance. The wonder, the magnificent wonder….inspired, inspiring, haunting.

Kill the suckers who fall down and are left behind. Make the poor bastards go away and hide. Play musical chairs with the musical entry into the shadowy image of the dwindling middle classes and see simple dreams thrown back into the faces of the believers.

Keep the chances coming. Inherit the winds of change. Ride the backs of the bucking broncs of toughness. Stand for progress. Stand for work, striving, the individual unfettered and left to fend for himself. Tough can survive anything…even the lack of sustenance and the rings of fire around chance. There should never be however that little help from ones friends…and ones friends need only be the ones that make one jump through the hoops submissiveness and do the dances of subservience.

Strive to let all keep heads high with respect golden and paths shining and out of hell. No paths … grow a muscle.

Trickle down the follies of avarice. Trickle them down and set up a pool for drowning. Just watch out who ends in the pool in the end. Tough is good. Mean is better.

Dominance Games: Vaudeville

Posted in Commentary, current events, dominance, opinion, political analysis, Politics with tags analysis, Commentary, Democracy, Government, news, political satire, politics, power, satire on August 24, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Vaudeville for ever. Acts in time.

Policy choices, policy discussions, policy circuses, stances, beliefs …… center stage. A million barking dogs, grand contortionists, mighty plate spinners, soaring scripts, headlining little tools …..the honor of the honor, the flame of the flame. Prance and sing, overripe shamelessness is a proud papa. Gives birth to pollutable air.

With hand over heart, with status and acceptance, certainly and forever, the entertainment medium of politics. The stuff that counts is gamed long before. Most sturdily, public vaudeville staging pays the bills, gets sold as the stuff of the big show, the stuff matters. Tis for the melody of the song, the farce of the comedy, the tempest of the flowing beauty of mother love, the dance of seven veils of misdirection. the fine chimeras veils of the great American epic.

Hell bent for leather all romps endure in lightness and froth, existences imbedded, archaic, innately sparkling…. thrills of the stage, agonies of tired acts, horrors of the hook from the side…. the thrills of the moments when the act hits and self definition derives for ever. Self aggrandizement is a wonderful prize.

Fine lines and deficient hoaxes come and go but the fine wines of salutary public approbations live forever. Oh, the thrill of the applause. The stone of a heart.
