And so what does that make of the people doing it? It's not "the market". It's people... well, psychopaths. I was listening to that wild woman more, hoping she'd add something new to me on the matter of the invention of money, but she really only clarified in a not very coherent way, so I just need to mention that this is immoral shit, whether you take the bible seriously or not. Atheism doesn't get you off the hook.

Actuality doesn't give a shit about your laws.

Which, incidentally, I tried hard to impress upon Admiral Janeway, who gets the corruption part, but not the actuality part. No. Really. Still thinks it's a goddam space program, or as Fussbudget likes to call it, a not even black budget kind of off the books alternate system of accounting. They think there is an ultimate accounting for this shit that corresponds to some sort of spending, that the money and/or goods are somewhere.

Well, yeah, proxy armies and provocateurs are fucking expensive, man, but they have to disappear zeroes at least nearly as fast as they add them or even dimwits will grok what's running our world.


pipe up any time....
