Yesterday i finally saw Michael Moore's latest film.
It is a brilliant, compelling nonpartisan exploration of how corporations have taken control of the U.S.A. since 1980.
Today i awoke with an original thought i cannot dismiss...
The power of corporate money lies in it's passive assumed legitimacy...
Every price for items and services on Earth is assumed to be negotiable on every level except "Corporate Policy".
On the human level of interaction on the planet in real time,
free market capitalism places the mathematical advantages of account balances over quality of life for everything in existence.
It is more profitable to have consumers dependent on a destructive system of endless and accelerating supply
than to encourage innovation through charity, sustainability and compassion.

In my 35 years of breathing American air, drinking government water and shitting corporate poo...
One thousand dollars was serious business. As a child, the candy bar that advertised it's richness was $100,000. When we spoke of the distant past, it was hundreds of years ago. Ancient times numbered in the thousands.
Then the word for inconceivable numbers became million. Never became "not in a million years." Rich people became millionares.
Then G.H. Bush fucked up the U.S.A. for twelve years.
The government of the U.S.A. confronted us with a new number that was so large it did'nt make sense, the billion. We apparently owed it to other governments around the world. Apparently the price of destroying Communism was that we added three zeros to our conception of money.
Then Clinton handed corporations all of the power of the U.S. economy through N.A.F.T.A. so he could pay off the interest on our loans.
Then G.W. Bush fucked the world up for eight years.
Like father like son... or a shitty deja vu...
we are adding three zeros again.
The difference this time is that the corporations at fault for all of this destructive bullshit are not doing it in the name of siezing power or guarding popular interests...
this time they are doing it in the name of maintaining spreadsheet programs and analyst speculations that stand on the nonexistant legitimacy of decades of lies.
There is one part of Capitalism: A Love Story that is hinted at and briefly discussed on the steps of a Federal building in D.C. ~
the revelations of economic threats and inequities is being orchestrated by a hidden entity at the highest levels of the U.S. government.
How high?
It cannot be forgotten and must be addressed in the name of all who have died for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness...
Ronald Reagan was a corporate shill actor, literally. His right hand man and Vice-President was G.H. Bush, who was the leader of the C.I.A.
If I had the power and clearance to cleanse the U.S.A. of illegal and destructive practices I would start with the C.I.A. and Bush I...
and let it all end with Bush II and the chain he wrapped around his dick.
Then President Obama would have the righteous ability to govern over a people that are not confused and frustrated by trying to comprehend the revisionist propaganda of a radical minority of white collar oppressors.
