The G20's end-game: Destroy humanity then buy a bunker? Seriously?
Holy cow, it clearly sucks eggs to be a Honduran refugee in Tijuana
these days. What the freak do they possibly have to look forward to?
And, good grief, how I would hate to spend my short miserable life
scrounging for blood diamonds in Africa right now. Or being a starving
two-year-old living under the Saudi cross-hairs in Yemen? Who the freak
would want to do that? http://jpstillwater.blogspot.com/2007/09/africa-worlds-largest-refugee-camp-with.html
Or I'd even hate to be one of those poor unfortunate souls currently
going to Harvard on a student loan. What kind of shite-show future do
they have in store?
But worst of all, I would truly hate to be a card-carrying member of the G20. Those people gots no future at all.
"But, Jane," you might say, "those guys all stay in twelve-star hotels,
live on steak and truffles and have French maids to wipe them after
they poop. They are wealthy beyond belief."
Too true.
But what exactly is their fabulous wealth actually based on?
War-profiteering? Price-gouging? Stock-market ponzi-schemes? Stealing
lunch money form school children? Nah. The bottom line for these guys
is that their eye-popping wealthiness ultimately comes from only one
thing. "Interest rates."
These blind fools have all become slaves to interest rates.
If something pays a high rate of interest, then they will always cling
to it like Saran Wrap -- never ever ever ever considering if there are
moral costs too. They will never let go of collecting student-loan debts.
They will never let go of permanent "war". They will never let go of
receiving government bailouts, creating pollution, drug and human trafficking, "eminent domain," fond
memories of that wonderful 2008 housing crash, hopes for the next huge
economic crash about to hit us, big-box stores paying slave wages,
privatization, 9-11, whatever. If it creates interest, go for it.
Even if the G20's latest interest-creating gambit destroys the world?
Nuclear explosions? Genocide? Rampant wildfires? Chainsaws? Sure.
Why not. These guys can always earn interest by selling new and better
bunkers to each other.
