Primitive destruction leads to creative accumulation
I’m mashing political/economic concepts together to demonstrate how ideologies have long term consequences. The creditor class have been subjugating nations and funding wars for centuries, kicking into high gear with the “enclosure laws”–policies that forced peasants off their land and … Continue reading
On the way to collapse
In addition to all the other reveals, the Epstein Files have shone a light on the ongoing looting operation, where it’s much more lucrative to sabotage the US economy so that the billionaires can profit from the destruction. The latest … Continue reading
Nobody wants the status quo
The vast majority of Americans find the status quo poisonous. This is the inevitable blowback from decades of misguided bipartisan policies that have destroyed our country. From never-ending invasions, regime-change ops and sanctions, to ruinous financialization, to the steady outsourcing … Continue reading
Looters
The US is enduring late-stage capitalism where it’s more profitable to loot rather than to create or build. Even worse, the looters are celebrated as “makers” rather than the takers they obviously are. Under Trump’s benevolent gaze, the financiers that … Continue reading

Everywhere is war
It certainly doesn’t appear possible for the US to have a non-belligerent foreign policy. Instead, the US aspires to be Techno-Sparta, where a climate of fear, hostility and end-of-times preparation seems to have overtaken US politicians, elites and the corporate media. … Continue reading
No Crying in the Casino
I had an epiphany watching the instructor for my continuing education class delineate all the expenses a small business incurs in the course of operation. It occurred to me that the US tax base has been shifted from corporations, banks … Continue reading

Alternatives
What if voting for Democrats to confront Trumpism doesn’t work? I’m sick of constantly being implored to vote harder but nothing seems to change. The Democrats promise reform yet when in office they serve us up the same menu of … Continue reading
