Who
has all the power in the world? The People? The elected representatives
of the People? Or is it the banks, corporations, bond markets, dynastic
families, hereditary monarchs and the super rich?
FOLLOW THE MONEY
The flow of money is the flow of power. Dollars are the amoral units of
power and are overwhelmingly held by the amoral (or indeed immoral)
super rich. The closer you are to the money flow, the more you can
divert into your own pockets, hence the incredible wealth of bankers.
The further you are from the flow, the poorer you are. The public good,
merit, morality, fairness, justice and rationality play no part at all
in the money flow.
The
more dollars you have, the more powerful you are. The fewer you have,
the more you become invisible. No one sees you and no one listens to
you. You are "power deficient", hence irrelevant. Isn't it time to be
seen and heard? Isn't it time for the public good and General Will
rather than the private good (of the rich) and Particular Will (of the
rich) to shape the power equation and dictate the money flow?
Money
is a "proximity phenomenon" - the closer you are to its source, to its
flow, the better. So, the rich ENSURE they are in closest
proximity, while the ordinary people find themselves very far away.
Those who are furthest of all from the money require State hand-outs,
charity or must beg. They
are held in almost universal contempt, yet their central problem is
nothing but being too far from the money flow, and that can happen for
all sorts of reasons. African
Americans, for example, have never been allowed near the money in any
significant numbers, hence have never stood a chance. Jews, on the other
hand, went out of their way to be close to the money, and succeeded
spectacularly. Most of all, the rich CONTROL who gets near the money.
You are permitted to come close only if you're a member of their
privileged cartel. The whole system is rigged against you. In a free
world, the People, not the rich, not the Zionists and WASP Freemasons,
must be in charge of who has proximity to the money.
1%
(the rich) command and 99% (the poor) obey. Isn't it time for genuine
People Power rather than the fake version served up by dumbocracy? Then
the People must take the money of the rich - or we'll be their slaves
forever. In this time of global financial meltdown, anyone who does not
advocate a vast and unprecedented redistribution of wealth from the rich
to the People is an Enemy of the People. Any defense of the rich is an
attack on the People.
Free
market capitalism has demonstrated that the market controls the
economic and hence political agenda. Who and what constitutes the
market? What is the market's purpose? Who elected any of the
participants in the market? What are the political affiliations of these
participants? How wealthy are they? In what way do they express the
General Will of the People? Is the market designed to operate in the
public good? Do our political leaders have any control over the market?
Do they know exactly how the market functions and how it contributes (or
not) to the public good? Do they know the identities of all the market
participants and their respective agendas? Are they able to inform the
People exactly what role the market plays? We all know the answer. Our
leaders are clueless. They don't control the market; the market controls
them.
The
market constitutes an unelected, unaccountable, extra-political entity
that nevertheless dominates the political space and can bring down
presidents, prime ministers and entire national economies. It can
provoke global economic crises and yet governments have ZERO control
over it. Don't you find that somewhat odd? How can anyone talk of the
people being in charge of the political process if the market dictates
government policy? Free markets and democracy are INCOMPATIBLE. You
cannot have a democracy if you have a market-controlled economy external
to the political process and unaccountable to the electorate.
Democracy
likes to trumpet the fact that you can remove unpopular politicians and
governments, implying that you get the government you choose, yet there
is no mechanism whatever for removing the controllers of the
marketplace, the people who run free market capitalism hence the people
who actually run democracy. If you can't remove them then you have no
power at all and you are at their mercy.
The
rich aren't stupid. They gave people democracy because they knew it
changed nothing. The market retains all of the real power and THEY are
the market. If the rich can't be removed from the market for corruption,
greed, the pursuit of naked self-interest and actively acting against
the public good then the people have no power. Democracy is a sham. The
truth is that the market and its controllers are beyond the reach of the
electorate while completely controlling the fate of the electorate.
They are outside democracy and yet they run the democratic system. Is
that not genius? The legions of dumbed down, manipulated and brainwashed
masses who will fight to the death for democracy haven't noticed that
their political system is a farce and gives them no power at all.
Democracy is simply a disguised plutocracy - rule by the rich -
operating via the "sacrosanct", unregulated market where the rich hold
all of the cards and the poor have no say.
It
need not be like this. "Social" capitalism, as opposed to free market
capitalism, is structured to ensure that there are no extra-political
entities that dictate to governments and are capable of destroying the
economy. Markets must be subordinated to politics, not the other way
around. Every element of the political process must be defined (because
how can you understand, regulate and control undefined entities) and
must be subject to the will of the people; otherwise it's ridiculous to
talk of "people power". The market is neither defined nor does it have
any connection whatever with the public good.
Who are the authors of free market capitalism? - THE RICH.
Who are the beneficiaries of free market capitalism? - THE RICH.
Who are the controllers of the economic and political agenda? - THE RICH.
WAKE
UP!
Democracy and its diabolical twin - free market capitalism - must
be abolished. Because, there is no such thing as a true Democracy and there will NEVER be such a thing as FREE-Market Capitalism.
