I got an email from Newsweek for their special
feature on the Davos conference
http://www.msnbc.com/news/NW-DAVOS_Front.asp
It's kind of interesting. So far I have
read that people are trusting their
political leaders less (with non-Americans
distrusting George W Bush especially), and that
middle class people are becoming
disaffected with a capitalist system which they
feel is not addressing their welfare, so that
business need to become more socially
responsible.
When I read this last point, I think of what I have learned
from Harry, that business has no business
doing anything except cutting costs -- even if
the final outcome will be the destruction of
the social world even if not the entire
elimination of "the human species" ( which
you all know I bbelieve is only something real only
for university verterbrate biology professors and
similar occupations).
Because the United States Attorney General is
at Davos (having a free lunch even though there is
no such thing?), we are told this proves that security
problems there have been solved.
DOn't get me wrong. It's a good Soap Opera.
It's a heck of a lot more interesting to me
than the S-perbowl (<--an obscenity) -- although
I did hear an explanation for why there is less
S-perbowl frenzy these days than there used to
be: Because the football (sorry: f--tball)
leagues some time ago reduced the
time between the playoffs and the S-perbowl
from two weeks to one week. Now why on earth
would anybody do that? Unless we can't afford
two weeks any more?
God bless America!
It's a good movie and think I'm going to watch it again tonite.
You should too.
All right, thank you, all.
