Truly frightening . But making more sense everyday .
We see it happening in mostly red states but it surely is infiltrating all of the United States and so many countries around the world.
I read an article a while back about greed as an addiction. The human brain acts in the same capacity with increased sums of money as it does with increasing intake of addictive substances. Its a simplification on my part but it makes sense. All moral values get cast to the winds in order to continuously accrue more and more money and the power that comes with it.
So these powerful people become irritated with anyones needs other than their own needs/ wants.
The language of these people becomes nasty and remote. They truly stop caring about people who cannot challenge them monetarily.
We are all becoming categories .
The poor, the minorities, the trans, the LBTGQ’s the immigrants , those on Social Security, retirees and disabled , all superfluous.
We ask ,’ have they no shame, no heart?’
And the answer is No.
Just as an addict will do what he must to get his next drug, the wealthiest and most powerful will wipe out anyone in their way.
See Kevin McCarthy ruthlessly setting us up for default on our debt.
It will trash our finances as well as much of the worlds . He doesn’t care.
He will blame Biden for not negotiating , on the debt of the last many years , much of it accrued under Trump. Because the Maga hostages cannot take responsibility to continue paying on what needs to be paid on .
A point seemingly lost on this group and their fractious leaders , McCarthy, Trump et al.
Just a review of fact.
The debt ceiling under Trumps administration was raised three times.
Money is not only addictive, but money is the means to obtain power and power is most addictive.
Those who have wealth and power are like sharks. A shark must keep swimming for if it stops it suffocates, swimming forces water through it's gills. So it is with wealth. It is a ponzi scheme, and it has to keep moving, growing, expanding or it dies.
Land developers are a good example. They borrow money from pension funds and other investors to finance a project, they live off that financing, and when done they have to start another project to pay back the original investors and support their lifestyle. When they stop the whole game comes crashing down. Just like AMWAY and other multi level marketing schemes.
I am so glad to be middle middle class. Debt and mortgage free, enough retirement income to pay taxes, insurance, buy foods and discretionary spending, including internet purchases, that I don't have to worry about being suffocated if I don't continue swimming.
Most of us are like sharks, we need to keep moving (working to pay bills and eat) or we "die". The difference between us and the ruling class, is that we do it to put a roof over our head, clothes on our back and food on the table, they do it because they are addicted.
I am watching Succession, thinly veiled series about the Murdochs (except Logan is Catholic and Rupert is Jewish). The father died and his heirs have enough money to set themselves up on some prime piece of real estate for life, but they are staying in the fight for control of the Empire, and it isn't money that drives them. Is it money that keeps Senators and Judges in office till they die? Like Feinstein. Well maybe in her case it is, who knows what will happen to her family fortune should she resign from office.

Mc Carthy pretends not to know this.
A very weak grasp on reality .
