Public Is Getting Its Pockets Picked |
From Zepps News:
Public is getting pockets picked
By Molly Ivins
Published 2:15 am PDT Thursday, July 21, 2005
AUSTIN -- If you had done a poll in November 2000, or in November 2004,
I don't think you would have gotten out of single digits with this
proposition: "George W. Bush wants to radically revise American law,
including complete repeal of the New Deal, and take us back to the
economic legal system that prevailed at the turn of the 19th century --
Robber Barons Redux."
During the past five years, both media and political circles have
devoted an enormous amount of attention to social issues and culture
wars -- rise of the Christian Right, anti-abortion groups, our debates
over moral decline and moral relativism, prayer in the schools, school
vouchers, displaying the Ten Commandments, sex and violence in
entertainment, bias in the news media, gay marriage and all the rest of
it. I sometimes think all of it amounts to a bunch of people saying,
"The world would be a much better place if everybody else thought
exactly the same way I do." Reminds me of Dr. Henry Higgins in his
famous philosophical disquisition, "Why Can't A Woman Be More Like A
Man?" Higgins finally discovers the ultimate problem: "Why can't a woman
be more like ME?"
Then, of necessity, we have spent huge amounts of time on Sept. 11,
terrorism, Iraq, and related and ancillary problems. It is not necessary
to review the bidding here, but Iraq is becoming as divisive and
unpopular as the Vietnam War.
While we have been absorbed in the silly circus of cultural issues and
the and riveting questions of the war, we've also been getting our
pockets picked. Big time. I am impressed that cartoonist Lloyd Dangle in
the strip "Troubletown" managed to get the whole problem into 12 panels,
each announcing some piece of economic news accompanied by an American
saying, essentially, "What, me worry?" The U.S. is over $7 trillion in
debt (no problem); China buys $1 billion worth of U.S. treasury bills a
day (thanks for floating us); Americans love the prices at Wal-Mart
(made in China, cute!); the Chinese save 50 percent of their domestic
product; the average American has $9,000 on his credit cards; our
economy is fueled by a fragile housing bubble; the minimum wage is $5.15
per hour . ; taxpayers who earn over $1 million saved $30K under Bush
tax cuts; the war in Iraq costs $9 billion a month; by 2040, our kids
will be unable to do more than pay the interest on the national debt . ;
bankruptcy reform makes it impossible to escape your debts; in Darfur
[Sudan], people earn $1.25 a day.
For those who prefer to get their economic news from a more respectable
source than a cartoon, I recommend Bill Greider's op-ed article in the
July 18 New York Times, "America's Truth Deficit." He begins with the
startling thesis that we face structural economic problems as serious as
those that destroyed the late Soviet Union and that, like the USSR
before its breakup, our leaders cannot talk about these problems
honestly. "[Our] weakening position in the global trading system is
obvious and ominous, yet leaders in politics, business, finance and the
news media are not willing to discuss candidly what is happening and
why. Instead they recycle the usual bromides about the benefits of free
trade and assurances that everything will work out for the best."
It is a curious thing that as the disadvantages and, indeed, perils of
globalization become clearer and the subject of ever-more worried books
by respected economists, the mainstream media keep treating the whole
problem as though it were about a bunch of protesters in turtle costumes
at the G8 summit. If it were not for Lou Dobbs on CNN, one would never
even hear it mentioned on television.
Forget what the Supreme Court thinks about teaching creationism in the
schools: Think about what it will contribute to the spiraling disasters
of globalization by dismantling the entire economic regulatory system
built up over the past 100 years. As Greider notes, "Washington defines
'national interest' primarily in terms of advancing the global reach of
our multinational enterprises." Problem is, our multinational
corporations increasingly work against the interests of Americans
themselves. In addition to outsourcing jobs, the companies locate sham
headquarters in off-shore tax havens to avoid paying taxes. The only
restraints we have ever had on multinational corporations are government
regulation and the right to sue the bastards for the various kinds of
harm they cause. It is precisely those two forms of control that are
being not just undermined but tossed out entirely by an increasingly
activist right-wing judiciary.

Unraveling."

Yes, I keep hoping that Democrats will open their eyes to how they're
being buffaloed by their leadership.

Yeah, remember how bad the economy was under Clinton?
That 4% unemployment... steady increases in wages...
record low numbers without health insurance... single
digit increases in healthcare costs (less than 1% for one
year).... the respect of the world...
Why can't all these *Liberals* just admit that things are
so much better under Bush????

Contempt of Congress meter reading-offscale.
Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
Court who will ensure church and state are joined
at the hip like clergy and altar boys.
America 1776-Jan 2001 RIP
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president
represents, more and more closely, the inner soul
of the people. On some great and glorious day the
plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last and the White House will be adorned
by a downright moron." --- H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
Religion is the original war crime.
