THE WORLD ECONOMY ENEMY The USA economy is crippled, for the time being, and the USA citizens are pointing their fingers at "the enemy": the idiot, greedy (USA) bankers. Exactly the same thing happens in any other major economic power in the World. This means, the World has a new ruthless, incredibly powerful, anti-social enemy: the bankers! (Well, this is what the people say.) This past week in USA (and in UK) the Congress people (and the MPs) have "grilled" few of the most notorious bankers. What the government people did was, they asked, "How could you cash in millions in bonuses and salaries in 2008 when your performance was such a disaster?" With few variations, the answer was similar to, "I am sorry." (Like they care!) Of course the bankers are far from being sorry; why should they be? Suppose you were in their place, and you simply TOOK home (not steal, people) 20 millions USD as YOUR LEGAL MONEY in 2008; is this a logic reason for sorrow? No, Sir; this 'brilliant move' asks only for a copious celebration! The bankers and the banking system did only what they were supposed to do "by design": to rip us off. However, they ARE NOT the true enemy of our society. The true enemy is exactly those people who are making the Laws; in other words, our very Governs! You see, if the Congress people had troubled to make a crime the unjustified, over-inflated salaries and bonuses in the banking system, and anywhere else in the business world, we wouldn't have had such an enormous waste of ordinary people's money. However, the problem is, the people who were supposed to guard the health of the USA society are senile, plain idiots, or just indolent individuals. THEY are the real enemy USA has! The legislators have brought the USA economy down to its knees, and they are the ones who work actively to ruin it, right now, by doing nothing good. Naturally, we talk here about the USA society, but the same thing is valid for any other country in the World. The "economy stimulus" plan proposed by Mr. President Barack Obama is very good because it buys us little time. Sure, many do object that the little time traded is a bit too expensive. Well, dear friends, time is the most precious item in existence, for us; on the other hand, "the people in power" are experts in wasting time (in doing nothing, or in doing nothing good). It is difficult to say if the famous "economy stimulus" plan in USA and many other similar plans in other countries are going to be used efficiently or not. It all depends on how intelligent the people in charge are going to act. The true "economy enemy" in the entire World are our very Governs. They are taxing, overtaxing, super-taxing, and supra-taxing us as never before in History: this is the TRUE economy problem, not the semi-official social-theft of those in power. The Governs have set the norm, "rip them off mercilessly"; next, the banks, and the big corporations did just that under the generous, blind protection of the Law. Of course that our Governs did and they do encourage this social rip off because, "the greater the sales, the fatter is the governmental sale-tax income". Just one example, take the GST/VAT absurd supra-tax. Initially, in 1950s, it was designed to tax the businesses, only; today, the businesses pay only 5% or 10% of the GST/VAT misery, while the ordinary people pay the full 100% of it. Note that in very many countries VAT is 20% (TWENTY PERCENT!!!); in USA the GST is only 6% but you have to add to it additional local taxes. We can only ask, "Are these government people totally insane? How can they imagine that taxing, overtaxing, super-taxing, and supra-taxing us, the ordinary people, is going to 'stimulate' this mockery of economy? This entire 'economy thing' is nothing else but 'a decent living for the ordinary people only': if the ordinary people do have a decent living, then ANY economy is strong; if the ordinary people are poor, then there is no such thing as 'economy', people--it cannot be." Theoretically, this economy crisis is a wonderful social-lesson, particularly because it is the second one to develop. People are going to suffer a lot but, hopefully, they may learn something very, very good. The system broke down, dear people, and this is the second time. |
