The consequences of not being fooled? People are alert to the abuses
of the system, not the nature of the system. I watched part of
Obama's press conference--I don't know whether there were more than
one--in Europe, and i was struck by his earnestness in securing
international cooperation to fix the system, which is what he was
hired to do. He understands interdependence in a globalized economy,
but our notion of interdependence is predicated on something
different, or rather, it should be. The more the governments of the
world collude to fix the system, the more they become our common
enemy, but we neither understand this nor are prepared to act on this
understanding. Street riots perpetrated by small bands of anarchist
jackoffs do not constitute meaningful organization.

Kinda typical stupidity, no?
Speaking of hype and BS, I saw Obama on Jay Leno last night. He's
charming and slick, but he's basically covering up how the capitalism
system operates, perpetuating universally accepted illusions.
^^
CB: I don't think too many people are fooled, illusions
not very universally accepted.
Kinda hard to coverup how the capitalist system operates
nowadays.
