ABOUT THE ANCESTRAL GREED If they have sufficient food, some animals will eat until they kill themselves: the predator ones. They just cannot cease eating because they live only for that: it is their very nature. Now, this is the way (some) animals behave; when we talk about people ... The crisis in the USA auto sector was there for about two decades. Everybody was aware of the continuously increasing demand in USA for the Japanese, Korean, and European cars, including the Big Three Managers. Still, they did nothing about it (except for cashing-in heftily) due to the USA "social polls"--statistics. Fact is, these social statistics are able to destroy (completely) the USA economy, and any other economy in the world. Take it this way. If someone asks us to answer honestly, what kind of a car we would like to drive in the future--say, right here, at Corollary Theorems--our answer is, "We prefer the big, luxurious, American cars." However, what the average citizens "like" is in perfect opposition to what we "can have", and even to what we "need". The fuel price went so high up these past years, and it will continue to go up in the future, that no sane citizen will ignore that aspect when buying a car. On the other hand, people are pushed deeper and deeper into poverty, therefore owning even the lousiest car becomes a luxury. These days, buying a fuel hungry "Made in USA" car is totally out of discussion. Not to mention the rip off goes way further because the maintenance (special fluids, lubricants, tires, repairs) a car requires is nothing else but sheer madness. Once you get a car in USA (and in many other places in the world) expect to pay like a millionaire just to keep that miserable thing running. Anyway, we were talking about social polls. Things are this way: the average people are not able to express their "social needs". As a result, any social polls lead in fact to wrong/utopian/non-important conclusions. Let's take another example. Suppose we are asked to answer honestly if we would "like" to work hard, or to enjoy a nice vacation on a sunny beach. Naturally, we all prefer to get a nice tan while lazing on a tropical beach. However, "what we would like to do" has absolutely nothing in common with "what we need to do". The actual crisis in the USA auto sector was a fantastic opportunity. It was best to allow the Big Three to go into bankruptcy, and then to buy them for peanuts via other companies. You see, it is far better for the USA economy to have the "Little Twenty-One" instead of the "Big Three" mastodon corporations. Mind this please, Any giant corporation works only as an ANTI-SOCIAL organization. Now, at the top of the economic food chain are the Banks. Again, the Bank Crisis was an unbelievable opportunity to break the monopoly of the big banks, therefore to form many small banks eager to please the client. It is past now. The opportunities come, and then they go away if they are not used. Just an example, the USA nation needs badly new roads, new bridges, better public transportation, far cheaper houses, and way cheaper medical facilities. The USA citizens work very hard (harder than anybody else in the entire world), yet the benefits of their work go to stuff the already overflowing pockets of the rich--via the great corporations--instead of developing the USA society. Any nation on our planet, including USA, is a "social organism". The governments, and the people, may work on developing their particular social organism, or they may decide to go deeper into ruin and poverty in order to "bail out" few corporations that have, in fact, enslaved the people, and the entire economy. Anyway, Merry Christmas to you all, dear ordinary, poor brothers and sisters. To the rich guys, we're sorry, Santa has nothing left for you; on the other hand, to you each day is like Christmas so ... |
