It is surprising to notice how confluent our ideas can become as we
reflect critically on our experiences.
I have observed the experiences of the
global divide between the rich and poor as determined by the Free
Market through the policies of privatization and deregulation. We
found out how wealth has been concentrating in the hands of our big
corporations and fortunate sons and how the Free Market has evolved
to become an oligopolistic market through the speculative collapses
and speculative mergers of big corporations.
As I realized the evolving of a world wide
oligopolistic market, where the market share of the corporation is
the qualifying distinction rather than costs and needs of goods and
services, so I realized the further erosion of our civil societies
as the corporations became more important than people, as big
corporations used their global markets to maximize their profits, as
big corporations became the controllers of our governments and our
media.
We identified this New World Order of the
Free Market as corporatism and associated the related governmental
support to this corporatism trend as Fascism. And yes, I realize now
of the further erosion of our civil society as Adam Smith's
competitive free market is absolutely non sense, we don't have a
competitive free market, we have a Free Market dominated by big
corporations and their controlled governments, and therefore in the
absence of competition we find the entrenchment of Fascism in our
governments, that is the collusion of the State with the big
corporations.
And as I refer to President Bush's speech
focusing on militarism abroad and security at home I have a gloomy
predicament for our escalating disorders abroad and at home. |
