The following was written in response to my observations of supposedly charitable people sitting around and putting forth ZERO solutions:
Just remember, when you “donate” to organizations such as Larry King’s DISASTER IN THE GULF, you are paying for corporate fuck-ups! Thus, the Magical Marvelous Monetary System provides solutions to its own problems—which are caused by the solutions to the problems—which are caused by the solutions to the problems—which are caused by the solutions to the problems—which are cau…. Do you understand yet? BP is saving MILLIONS of dollars for rationalization of the facts as we slavishly work boring, pointless jobs for a plethora of for-profit corporations in order to accumulate but minute fractions of the “money “ supply, just to hand it back over to even more corporations. And at the end of the day, where does the money end up?--You guessed it: in bank vaults and financial databases owned by banks.
You need to ask yourself something, as you sit and stare into what has become our intellectual oblivion: Do we have the technology, resources (MONEY IS NOT A RESOURCE), and ultimately enough people, technically trained and capable of designing and installing an apparatus to stop this leak, to actually design and install such a solution to this particular corporate fuck-up in the Gulf of Mexico? Instead, we tend to find ourselves with rhetoric falling from our lips about the meaningless transfer of wealth. Are we really this imbecilic to believe that a bunch of rich "celebrities" sitting around the CNN building right down the street from my apartment here in Hollywood, collecting this fabric with imaginary value off of the general public, is going to change ANYTHING? We must be stupid. Ryan Seacrest's $45-million contract with American Idol alone could fund this design—as if funding is what we need! It is absolutely disgusting to have witnessed throughout my lifetime a series of unfortunate events, such as this one, have NO response at all from the so-called 'American' citizenry; unless, of course, when these events happen, it is made "popular" and "important" through Name-Brand Social Status updates or it is exploitatively profitable for multi-national corporations... And this is the world we are leaving our children?
We are perpetuating a completely insane fantasy that ‘money makes everything happen.’ Natural resources and Natural Laws 'make everything happen'--not money. Money is not a resource! Money is simply an imagined impediment to the access of our resources. Until we understand this, we will remain docile servants of a system of reckless waste, total environmental disregard, and pretended scarcity of life sustaining necessities—all, of course, in the name of profit. Now ask yourself one more question: What are we doing?
Live. Learn. Love...
