Dear George,
I have to chuckle every time I hear people bitch about how you are driving the country into bankruptcy. These are people who have no understanding of the inner working of Finance Corporatism. Finance Corporatism has no interest in bankruptcy because bankruptcy is something you enter into with the expectation of emerging from in a stronger financial picture, which is the last thing the average Corporatist wants to happen.
Corporatists are on to something bigger: the Marxian dream of the withering away the state. We have transitioned from a democratic republic to a Corporatist State. Now, the time has come to lose the state, and the best way to do that is to transfer capital from the public treasury to the private treasury. This possible because the public is barely aware that there is such a place as America. Corporatist marketing has successfully reduced America to an adjective as in American Idol. Little is left of the actual America except for a military-industrial complex that has increased the rate at which public funds are liberated and allowed to roam free in a market place that is no more.
Your Corporatists are gnawing away at the base of the social pyramid in the deluded belief that capital is a lighter than air gas so when the base of the pyramid crumbles, the peak will float away to an Elysian Field of Mediterranean villas and private jets. They believe this is possible because the only thing backing up their liquidity is indebtedness. Every dollar that flows into their coffers is a liability that thinks it’s an asset.
When you couple this with the fact that the state’s sole function is to prop up capital and legitimize its greed and exploitation, the withering of the state will be a fun exercise in chaos and disaster.
But nobody cares as long as the numbers continue to dance across their screens and they can live in their virtual worlds isolated from the encroaching desert that is the real.
Your admirer,
Belacqua Jones
