America’s Moola Redux
10/May/2010 10:11 Filed in: Oikos Thoughts | Web News
It only took a week for Federal government officials to determine that the 1 May terrorist attack in New York’s Time Square was not the work of a lone disgruntled new American citizen, but that he had training, finances and other resources at his disposal from Pakistan’s Taliban. So again we see that even though America’s politically correct do not believe that Islamic jihadis are trying to create chaos here in the United States, it is just those poor misguided religious people just don’t understand how warm, caring, we infidels really are. It is such a shame that they are too primitive to understand our evolutionary scheme, not only for America but the whole world.
Likewise on Sunday we learned that the Obama Administration’s homeland security and counterterrorism team has no evidence that Thursday’s near 1000 point drop of the Dow Jones was caused by any cyber attack. So from the guys that were behind the lone disgruntled bomber spin, we are to believe that they finally got something right. Just like they were busy with the Gulf oil spill, “From day one.”
It is just nine days until the world celebrates the 110th anniversary of the publishing of the prophetic book “The Wonderful Wizard of OZ.” For now it seems the Wizards of Washington and the Wizards of Wall Street want us to believe that they are not part of that fable, but for now they are not doing a very good job. So we are told to believe some computer glitch somewhere somehow was responsible for the mystery of the disappearance of roughly a trillion dollars and then a return of a good chunk of it a few minutes later. We could blame it on an act of God, but that would require a belief in a Supreme Being and since that is currently un-American we will have to leave that Godly interpretation in the hands of Islamic human caused disaster creators.
So today business is back to our usual yellow brick road to a unified kerfuffle theory and we will have to wait until we learn what really happened as America’s financial wizards try to determine what really happened last Thursday — from day one. Meanwhile over in Europe the wizards of the European Union have come up with a trillion dollar plan to stabilize the Euro as Greece continues to hemorrhage financially and physically. So that they don’t feel lonely the citizens of Great Britain have to wonder when their election results will finally lead to a new Prime Minister wizard, who will cobble together a government.
Maybe a stupendous tornado will come about and we can be all transported back to Kansas, 110 years ago!
Since the possibility of that happening is quite remote and since Kansas has less than one percent of the USA population, perhaps we should look at the Federal government’s daft spending and this brief but steep Wall Street correction as a discernment opportunity, to focus on some individual reality, because the world’s elite Wizard Class are proving they really need to be sent to OZ for save keeping, or better yet permanent exile.
I am surprised a number of people on TV are not convinced that the Wall Street fall was just some normal mistake related to some trader entering a billion instead of a million. The no-spin guy himself Bill O’Reilly said he was skeptical. Neil Cavuto, also on the only news television channel I still watch, had a guest named Gary Hager, who stated that a random mistake was very unlikely, like when real wizards actually exist (emphasis mine).
With just a little creative thinking, some knowledge of Wall Street trading operations, and some decent computer skills, it would not be all that hard to bring the world to its financial knees, no conspiracy theory needed. Access to the system, either legal or hacked, a few lines of code, and you too could pocket a billion bucks and it would take years, if ever to unravel the scheme. Perhaps if Faisal Shahzad, had spent a little more time focusing on this opportunity, he might have been more successful than his actual bomb making enterprises, but it seems that he was lacking on the creative thinking end of the spectrum and never moved out of the real bomb making box.
If we don’t know what happened by this time next week, we surely can rule out an act of God.
When you put the Wall Street happening together with the Euro — Greek conundrum and the American governments daft spending, you seriously need to realize that our moola resources are no longer what they were just a couple of years ago. The problem is money is no longer moola. Back when money was moola you could carry it around in your pocket, count it physically, and actually borrow moola from a local bank who might be interested in you as a human person and not a credit score.
Those days are gone, moola has disappeared. Now instead of that physical moola, you carry a credit card and make payments on stuff you really don’t need, but now need to store. Storing that stuff means you need a bigger house, or a separate storage apartment, bigger than most of the world’s population homes, and you need more money to make the payments on that extra space. The sad thing the closer you get to New York City and Washington DC, the more this type of foolishness makes sense. I suppose that is a twenty-first century Absolute, for that is all you hear from the synergy of Wall Street, Madison Avenue, and Washington’s K Street.
Moola used to be a medium of wealth to facilitate the exchange of goods and services. Now money is electronic bits and bytes of binary code that you leverage to obtain more binary code, so that if you are really sophisticated, you can purchase hedge fund and derivative insurance to cancel the risk of your over extended leverage.
So you now understand the world of mutually assured financial destruction. So where is all the social benefit in all of that?
Well, it looks like here in the Deep Woods of Nowhere, for a couple of years now that whole Ponzi Scheme has been crumbling and in the last week things appear to be getting worse rapidly.
For the thousands of years of recorded history moola and money were pretty much synonymous or harmoniously married. It has only been in the last half century or so, that the once sound marriage has ended in a contentious divorce. To those who still possess the discernment of reality, it is time to look to the true history of moola and begin to invest your wealth in real moola and not the binary code in a cancerous get rich monetarily risk gamble on the tense world’s social harmony. Call it an American Moola Redux.
