Perhaps I am like the presidential candidates: I am most palatable
and popular swaddling around with real, yet very unimportant questions, decisions,
and actions; while the great city of Rome burns just off camera. The largest and most important decisions and
actions, say, to come clean about lobbying and campaign millions defiling the
processes of democracy, are not seriously discussed, other than to acknowledge,
minimize, and effectively dismiss as a real possibility for future action, of
course, “It certainly deserves further discussion.” The processes of a real democracy should
loosen the collectives’ hold over our money and corrupted institutions. Public unions, Too Big To Fail “private
corporations” or more accurately, political collectives in finance, insurance,
health, education, defense, energy, and others should get a swift kick off the public
dole where they benefit their politically powerful institutions, in lieu of
being effective institutions which benefit us, …the separated “us,” out in a
burning city.
Is
this not unlike a man, say myself, in a relationship with
a girl, say my wife, where we discuss the bills that need to be
paid
today, the money we are saving, the next apartment we want to rent all
while
the largest decisions; for individuating through courageous decision and
action,
into something unique, responsive, and corrective to myself and others,
are acknowledge,
minimize, and effectively dismiss as a real possibility for future
action? “We should talk more about this if its so important to you.”
My personal collective would have me in
support of the collectives’ best practices; producing and raising civil
citizens in support of the collective. How shall I address the initial
assumption?
Is my choice between a truer
existence of vital life, isolation, then annihilation, and, a non-choice of
species perpetuation 2.0?
