Today my
thoughts linger to defining the ubiquitous, Darwinian concept known as
capitalism. Does capitalism mean the fittest survive? Does it mean the store
front offering the best product at the best price will thrive? Does the trophy
go to the company that provides the best service to their customers or the guy
with the biggest guns?
In our modern day feudalism, the meaning of capitalism has been interpreted to mean that the guy with the biggest guns in Washington gets the prize. It also has meant that the big gun that can hire thugs to shoot the competition off his farm or oil rig or any other capitalist endeavor that he might be pursuing will win the price, steal the other’s land, absorb his business, take his customers, and leave the poor soul's family with the sorrow of his savagery.
Do the nice guys win, the ones that create their dreams and honestly want to provide a service to humanity? Yes, as long as they do not step on the dinosaurs' toes. I say dinosaurs, because their days are numbered. These giant overly-fed, eternally hungry beasts will leave this earth for good one day and no Jurassic Park will resurrect them.
You can be sure the Big Gun is not true capitalism nor free enterprise nor a free market. A free market also does not mean killing and stealing land in other countries so that they can offer the cheapest product, as has been the common practice of so called capitalist in the last few centuries. To enslave others and pay them as slaves, bullying other countries into selling their prize possessions, their land and human population, for a few bucks or pay the consequences of refusing to honor the tyrants, is not true capitalism.
And how have these soulless creatures convinced the world that they are the deity to be worshipped above all others? How have they convinced much of the population that their conquest are noble and good, all the while murdering, raping the land, and stealing the souls of all they touch, consuming everything in their path with a never ending hunger?
Why is it so easy for society to forgive those who kill millions for greed and enslave entire populations and spew their poisons not only on our earth but through the control of mass media into the world’s' minds. The people of the world have been brainwashed just like our elected officials to believe in the power of the big banks and the big corporations, to think that we need them as a child needs a mother.
I cannot even fault the politicians for falling for the scams of bailouts and fall outs and pay offs and free vacations and lifetime compensations; for they are under the same spell as all of society that bows down to the beast and whatever the beast produces, whether that be words in a paper, bills that ban viable products from our society, or wars that put more of our too hard earned money in their pockets.
Protecting the interest of tyrants who enslave others around the world is not true capitalism nor is it a reason to send our most precious resource, young men and women, who have in good faith committed to up hold our constitution and protect our citizens, into harms way. War is a last resort and in a civilized world, not an option at all. Today's wars are for greed and two-year-old's throwing temper tantrums.
And if you think for one second that our current wars have anything to do with true freedom or the Twin Towers, you are forgetting pipelines in Afghanistan and the black gold known as oil in Iraq. You might also have forgotten who is profiting from this war; you will find that it is the big banks we borrow money from and the big corporations, cousins to these banks who produce the killing products needed for this theatrical production. Only this is not a movie or a play, it is real with real blood shed and real karmic consequences.
