SOCIAL COLLAPSE
In response to the Homeless problem in Fairfax, CA America which is accurately describing a Social Collapse!!! Right-on. Da’ ya’ think there’s any relationship between million-dollar fixer upper houses and people eating out of dumpsters and shitting in the park. First the Powell Memo of 1971 (a blueprint for Project 2025), then Reagan’s policies and his attack on Unions, then the Democratic Party taken over by Wall Street, then the influx of Silicon Valley “Richie Rich’s”, and a whole lot of indifference to the problem of homelessness throughout the entire country, and everybody blaming everyone else, and finally the Big Ugly Bill, which takes from the bottom 20 to 30%, squeezes the middle and rewards the top 10%. Capitalism, unregulated, inevitable leads to gangster fascism – look at Communist Russia today, not exactly leftist. And, today in America, we have a gangster realtor leading a White Suprematist minority, wearing face masks with no legal authority herding hard working immigrants with no “due process” into “concentration camps”. 50% of detainees have no criminal record and another 30 to 40% may have a traffic ticket or two. If we’re lucky 5 or 10% are the actual hard-core criminals. But the goal was never to arrest all these criminals. That was a BS talking point. The goal is to build private prisons ($65 Billion from the Big Stupid Bill), shut down any dissent (Colbert cancelled), and instill fear in the population (farm workers afraid to show up). Like a Mafia neighborhood in my hometown, where you don’t disrespect the Don, pay tribute every week or month, and be thankful they don’t “wack” you. DEI is in our DNA and THEY want to erase it completely. Erase America and let’s call it Trump-land, the family name is actually Drumpt, maybe Dumpland. When Adam Smith wrote the Wealth of Nations, his intend was to warn against any monopoly- read the book, it’s right there. The problem is that like the Bible, you can find something in there to be reinterpreted to mean whatever you want.
Unregulated Capitalism has subsumed the Democracy. We no longer have Democratic Capitalism; we have a Capitalist Democracy – and we can all see the results and blame the nearest “other”. There is now mass inequality worse than when Marie Antoinette told the peasants to “eat cake” (cake referred to the scraps of burnt flour that were still in the ovens, not a sweet cake). Main Street Capitalism, Regulated Capitalism, Progressive Capitalism are all fine and dandy. Unregulated Corporate Capitalism is a disaster.
