Did you ever get the feeling you were missing something? How is it possible that the financial “experts” who drove the banking system into crisis are now in greater demand than ever?
How is it possible that public money will continue to be poured into a parasitic financial culture that has questionably anything to do with a sustainable real productive economy? How is it that millions upon millions of people are living virtually and actually hand to mouth while others get rich beyond imagination by buying and selling money which it is questionable really exists?
So a parallel universe does exist. But it’s not the physicists' possible world mathematically inferred. It is a world of symbolic manipulation of the value of the real world by the financial wizards pulling the levers that keep us fearful and who dare us to pull back the curtain. Many thought Obama would do that. How wrong they were.
Don't give up on Obama so fast. Plus as you know the locals are more worried about how much sick time a fireman gets
ReplyDeleteHey Joe,
ReplyDeleteWell, I haven't given up. Relative to the last 8 years this is heaven. Nevertheless I don't like what I'm seeing. The big picture looks bad. ... To be honest all I see that's really good is getting out this message that it's actually possible to sincerely talk to people without a fixed agenda beforehand. But, again, to tell you the truth I'm losing faith that he doesn't have a very fixed agenda. And my fear is that with respect to empire, centralization of capital and government and the value of local community politically(since I fancy myself a populist)is really no different than Bush. He may well be Bush but with empathy.
