The economy will have to fall before it can get back up
by Bobby Fontaine July 10, 2008
Remark from a reader- “I don’t know why but I have always married credibility and literacy. Poor grammar always makes an article lose some credibility in my mind.”
Response - But perhaps someone writing a bogus article will make sure their grammar is perfect to avoid detection where someone who’s confident of their material might be so exuberant about the public reaction to the content that they might make grammatical errors. Like if you met me, you likely would not trust me because I have long hair and tattoos, don’t care how I dress, talk, eat, sleep, fart, $#!*, or complete sentences. But I’m not stupid or a liar, which you are not implying I am either.
Now if I wanted to be a liar, I would put on a suit and tie, cut my hair, make sure I always had my shoelaces tide, and say what everyone wants to hear. That way you would trust what I told you even though it wasn’t true. I do however wonder what would happen if I put on a suit and tie and told the truth. I don’t think it would work for me. People trust lies more than the truth because a lie can be counted on to protect the believer of it from having to take it seriously. So men who wear suits and ties are expected to lie because that way we can all live in a fantasy world never having to take anything they say seriously.
That seems to be the meaning on freedom today, turning our backs on reality if we so choose. But reality is coming back to smack us upside the head through our economy for not paying attention to it. The reason it’s taking so long for the economy to turn around and get working again is Americans would rather trust lies because it means they don’t have to change. So they’re waiting for the men in suits and ties to come up with a new way to lie to them that keep everyone wealthy without serious concerns or effort being put towards the future.
The truth will likely weight heavy on their souls at first. But once they find there’s no other direction to turn, they will remove the nooses from their necks unbuttoning their collar to roll up their sleeves and learn how to do real work. Not long after that, they’ll look and act a lot more like me and might be able to handle the truth more easily without having to have the economy taken from you so you learn the important lesson that money equals human effort, which is work, real work.
Right now the working man is being punished because the men who wear suits and ties along with the women who emulate them have forgotten how to work even to the point that they think it’s beneath them to sweat outside of a gym or athletic field. They believe wealth is given for how well an individual outsmarts our being human animals wandering this planet in search of higher evolved intelligence and genetic physical properties, or of course extinction.
But right now the ratio of workers to wealth is out of proportion where no one wants to work anymore but everyone wants to be wealthy. They all want to go to places they call “work” but they aren’t doing anything once they get there but moving money around. And the people who already have money just want more of it even though they have no use or plan for what to do with it. In fact they seem to want it so badly that they’re willing to destroy the foundation it comes from, the people who actually produce and deliver product and services along with the planet they toil on to bring it to them.
So by engaging in this extreme lack of judgment, the economy is going through a great upheaval where in the end, the working man will better understand that he or she is no longer secure just because they can provide real world needs directly to themselves as the people who want what they produce want it in ever larger numbers even though they have no use for it while there are less and less of us to help provide it to them.
In the end, the economy will no longer be willing to support wealth without real world effort which will be a boom for the economy because the best and brightest among us who have traditionally been allowed positions of power so they earn the greatest financial rewards without doing anything to get it will begin to go to places from Monday to Friday where we will call what they do more than a title for a place they hang out every day but what they actually are indeed doing, work. That’s when we’ll begin to build our economy around the world we live in instead of trying to mold the world we live in around an economy that was handed down to us from the royal dynasties it was designed to serve that eventually creating us, the Americans, the winners of the financial spoils of history.
But the truth is we created this nation to separate ourselves from that same royal economy but quickly got sucked back into it when George Washington feared for the future of his budding new free nation and traded our souls for a Navy putting us in debt to foreign currencies with portraits of kings and queens on them rather than elected leaders. Thus was the beginning of Wall Street and the end of the true American dream of freedom, until now.
Soon there will be nowhere for people who love free money to turn as the system that supports the most reward for the least effort will be leaving them with nowhere to go for their monthly staples of disposable income. And since there will also be less money to support their needs for illicit black market products and their tastes for extreme sexual adventures so the poverty they created to support the personal and social indiscretions will begin to heal where the flourishing underground ghetto economies that serve the needs of the business districts in cities around the nation and world will begin to look elsewhere for more legitimate less destructive income.
So young minds corrupted by lack of opportunity now will be free from having to sell their souls for the scarps of free money that falls from the tables of the gluttons who besiege their future and the future of freedom for all mankind hiding behind the only honest declarations of its meaning using it as their closing lines in selling us on how giving them our blood and sweat to make them rich makes us part of a great revolution in freedom founded on the true principles of what is good and decent in how we govern ourselves as a civilization.
Some of them will jump from the rooftops of the same buildings they used to steal our money from while others will go to prison because they failed to heed the warnings that the free ride was over. And a great deal more will suck it up with the help of antidepressants either never leaving the couch in front of their TV watching endless reruns of “Columbo” and “Leave it to Beaver” while hoping that the end of the workday will come with Dr Phil and Ophra inspiring them to be able to handle doing real work or teach them how they can get subsidized in a way that gives them more than food stamps and enough money to buy heating oil for the winter but enough for a new Mercedes and to move back into their multimillion dollar mansion that they previously only had to dawn a suit and tie to own.
But for the rest of them, once they understand how to do the kind of work they only ever took credit for before the great change taught them how to use their mind and body to produce product and service, they’ll find not only that they like work but will learn that the fundamental personal and financial rewards they gained from the experience was well worth the long strange journey that brought them to a point of clarity in knowing what the meaning of intelligent life truly is. And the world and freedom will prosper behind their new learning experience.
So wave bye-bye to your free money because it will be long-gone and out of sight very soon where you’ll be taking steps in new directions that you never thought possible. If you work hard for little pay now, you will soon become rich. And if you get paid great amounts for no work, you’ll have choices that only the strong among you will be wise enough to survive to receive the full benefit that civilized life has to offer you. As for you that don’t make it, your children will learn from your mistakes and perhaps will still be there to help you along as you grow old and fade from a world you tried to destroy because you thought you were the center of the universe where what happened to it after you were gone didn’t matter as long as you had more than everyone else did while you were here.
And with the threat of your destructive existence passed far away enough from freedoms future no your longer able to influence its path with your delusions of grandeur built around money others made that you stole while you dressed in what many of us who do real work see as Halloween costumes that you dawn for every occasion which signals to your comrades that the lie is strong, that the lairs are in tune with the needs of those who needs to be lied to so the free money flow can be expected to remain fluid in ever increasing portions where the dream that one day all anyone would need to do is put on a suit and tie and wherever they go, they will be treated as royalty.
Soon you will be hanging up your suit and noose while joining me in the field to get down to the business of building a real world. And as the sweat you bleed cleanses your soul from the delusions installed in you by your forefathers, you will rejoin the tribe of man toiling with your intelligence the way you were designed to. Then you will finally have what it is you’re trying to get from money that it can’t give you. And then we will be free of you taking it from us even though you never get what it is you were after. That will be when mankind gets it first real taste of freedom. And it’s just over the horizon of this crashing US economy. Thank God for the meltdown. It’s doing what no war or revolution could ever do, waking up rich people.
“Hello, How are ya? Yes – you’re OK. You - have – been - asleep - for - thousands - of - years - but – you – are - fine - now. You’re finally starting to open your eyes. No no, everything is OK. This is not a nightmare. Once you can get some blood flowing through your veins again, you will begin to feel normal.”
“No no, please,,, just trust me, your money is fine. You - are - going - to - be – richer - than - you - ever – imagined. Nod your head if you understand…. Good good, very good”
“I know, this is quite a shock so you must be terribly exhausted. Why don’t you take a nap and we’ll see how you feel a little later.”
“There there - close your eyes, we’re not going anywhere, everything will still be the same when you wake back up. Yes, it’s finally over, you are free, really and truly free from the slumber that darkened your soul for so many centuries. So get some rest so we can get to work on putting your life back together for you. There is so much you need to catch up on”
“That’s right my little daisy, close your eyes. Sweet Dreams. We’ll see You again in a little while”
