It is striking despite public perception how a majority of Dems (Dems do the heavy lifting, Rep fall in line) are tied to Big Biz & to add on to MyRon’s comment the Wars go on because Big Establishment Biz profits/wins with the defacto control of both sides of the political spectrum !

The link I have worked this morning:

http://endthelie.com/2012/04/18/18-venn-diagrams-showing-how-corrupted-american-democracy-really-is/#axzz1vwEEQwNi

Says somthing about our Messianic “man of the people” fighting for the 99% against that evil 1% …

The bottom line is that our “elections” are the 21st Century equivalent of Gladiator fights in the Colliseum – just entertainment for the Booboisie – will Romney carry Florida or Obama carry Wisconsin – doesn’t matter because the Wars go on and Goldman Sachs wins either way!

The link came from the wife of a fellow MIT grad student – and while I’m on the “right” and she’s on the “left” – we’re both concerned about the unlimited reach of the government. I sent her this link on civil liberties from Nat Hentoff (who has come out against Obama on wnd.com), not generally considered a “rightwinger” and she sent me the Corporatist Revolving Door Venn diagrams in return:

Sort of a Ron Paul meets Dennis Kucinich moment of sorts – but then we have the Republicrat vs. Demoplicans just obsessing on cultural nitpicks while we slide into bankruptcy – economic and moral.

Capitalism – that is, VOLUNTARY economic exchanges, is moral and beneficial. Sadly, just as copper quarters drive out silver quarters from circulation, subsidized pseudo-fascist “companies” drive out honest business. Why COMPETE when you can outlaw your competitors, get subsidized, get “ethanol mandates”, solar cell tariffs, and the like???

And once you have tasted the cocaine of fascism, companies have as much problem giving up the power as private individuals have of giving up the heroin of socialist welfare. I’ll quote Jefferson:

“I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.”

Gotta love Myron Pauli. But the link is not presently operable.

As usual Mr Pauli’s comments are spot on. Great stuff. Myron, I want to be just like you when I grow up.

I concur: the state twists everything, like a black hole bends light. I’m even willing to debate whether capitalism is moral when practiced – but the point is we’re being denied the chance to find out. Meanwhile, we have hard evidence that statism ISN’T moral when practiced. And that’s supposed to be OK.
