Entry: It Makes the World Go Round Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/it_makes_the_world_go_round#22161 Post contents: There is an old Latin saying that goes; "In vinculis faciebat" or words to the effect that: "it was made in chains". The best fruits of humanity spring from chains, resistance, a good old fashioned fight in the face of righteous presumption. The "Worlds Greatest Superpower" forgot itself, just like those global gentlemen of the Netherlands who were transfixed by siren Tulips. At least the tulips were tangible, something of beauty. The instruments and commodities the current satrapy went whangdepootenewah over are will-o-de-wisps, phantom images and everyone is in some kind of Mexican Standoff wondering where the cash is and when the next shoe might drop. Bright promises on Fiat Money are kind of like a sinking ship that stays afloat as long as the rate of leaking dont exceed that of bailing. Right now, the leisuretariet is swooning for the Golden Calf of "change". It is anyone's guess how cheerful, multicultural and optimistic they will remain once that whistling sound they detect is revealed for the sucking chest wound it is. No wonder the folks down at the Department of Justice think it's as simple as playing Checkers. Everything is black and white, aint no grey and after all, the laws were made to serve the masters were they not? Meanwhile, El Deciderfurioso keeps punching away with a happily sadistic insistence last seen when squeegee men menacingly leered through the car window as one exited the West Side Highway and attempted to run the gauntlet into Gotham. Our beloved Squeegee Man In Chief, Leave no Windshield Behind. Sent at: 2008 09 07
