OBAMA AND CO. HAVE BEEN DOING THE "HAPPY FACE" BULLSHIT THING ALL SUMMER...
DESPITE THE OBVIOUS CONTINUED DECLINE IN THE ECONOMY...AND THE JOBS MARKET.
THIS HAS GIVEN FOX AND FREAKS PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY TO RAGE ABOUT HOW THE STIMULUS "ISN'T WORKING"....
OF COURSE THE STIMULUS ISN'T WORKING...THIS IS A STRUCTURAL COLLAPSE...NOT A CYCLICAL DOWNTURN WHICH IS WHAT KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS WAS DESIGNED FOR.... (THAT BY THE WAY IS WHY THE KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS DIDN'T WORK IN THE 1930'S DEPRESSION)
STIMULUS CAN ONLY DELAY THE COLLAPSE IN STRUCTURAL DEPRESSIONS...AS IT DID HERE...
IT WILL BE CURIOUS TO SEE REPUBLICANS RUNNING CONGRESS...AFTER THE ELECTIONS... BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT HOW TO SAVE THE ECONOMY...IN FACT THEY CAUSED THE COLLAPSE WITH THE SERIAL BUBBLES OF THE 90'S....
WHAT IS REALLY NEEDED IS A SOCIAL SAFETY NET FOR THOSE AMERICANS WHO WILL BE LEFT BEHIND IN THE COLLAPSE...
INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL AND "THE RICH" DON'T NEED ANY PROTECTION...THEY CAN LEAVE AND ARE ALREADY LEAVING FOR THE NEXT BOOM TOWN... PROBABLY IN ASIA...
SADLY THE AMERICAN WORKER CAN NOT JUST PICK UP AND MOVE TO ASIA...
SO WE NEED A SOCIAL SAFETY NET ASAP...TO PREVENT CATASTROPHIC COLLAPSE OF THE SOCIAL STRUCTURE IN AMERICA....
IF YOU LOOK AT BECK'S ANGRY FAT WHITE GUYS AND THEIR SKANKS THIS WEEKEND THAT IS REALLY WHAT YOU WERE SEEING...
"THE LEFT BEHIND!!"
BECKS LEGIONS ARE THE LOSERS OF INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL...THE PEOPLE ON THE SCRAP HEAP OF THE GLOBAL ECONOMY...
WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT THEM...?
THE USUAL SOLUTION IS FASCISM...BUT THE US IS IN NO POSITION TO IMPOSE FASCISM ON THE WORLD...COLONIALISM IS DEAD...AND THE US MILITARY IS OUT OF BULLETS...JUST KILLING MORE MUSLIMS FOR THE ZIONISTS ISN'T GOING TO CUT IT....
THE SOLUTION IS PULL BACK...AND IMPROVE THE APPEAL OF THE US FOR BUSINESS...VIA SINGLE PAYER HEALTH CARE....A HIGHER MINIMUM WAGE TO RESTORE THE REMNANTS OF THE MIDDLE CLASS...NOW EXTINCT...AND PROVIDE SOLID PENSIONS TO MOVE THE OLDER WORKERS OUT OF THE WORK FORCE SO THE YOUNGER GENERATION CAN GET ESTABLISHED...
THIS ALL SOUNDS ODD RIGHT...?
BUT JUST WAIT... IN FIVE YEARS IT WILL BE CONVENTIONAL WISDOM...!
