Win On Diagonals

“The first duty of the press,” Lowe wrote, “is to obtain the earliest and most correct intelligence of the events of the time, and instantly, by disclosing them, to make them the common property of the nation… The Press lives by disclosures… For us, with whom publicity and truth are the air and light of existence, there can be no greater disgrace than to recoil from the frank and accurate disclosure of facts as they are. We are bound to tell the truth as we find it, without fear of consequences – to lend no convenient shelter to acts of injustice and oppression, but to consign them at once to the judgment of the world.” Robert Lowe: 1851

Sometimes it’s not so apparent, but hyper finance capitalism is a hell of a lot deadlier than many other viruses going around. Often times one must show a casual link that is rejected by the staunch defender of unfettered and rapacious capitalism as whining by do gooders or leftists that fail to understand god’s master economic vision, or some old demented fuck from the Chicago school for that matter. Anyway, this story shows a very clear link between starving human beings, and an increasingly desperate for mega-profit derivatives markets. Just leave it to the Goldman’s Sack killers to mop up their brandy sauce with the desiccating flesh of their fellow human beings.. .but, it’s all an abstraction to them…they have no power….you see….it’s like the soldier’s blaming the general’s, blaming the geeky big mouth policy wonk, blaming the….et cetera….for the bombing of civilians or the like… This sort of speculation must be stopped immediately, and those entities that profit from death, should be put out of business by whatever means possible.
