Classism in the Stinking Onion

Will the old trading post up the river, built on a fracture in the earth implode like Xanadu? Will USA's most ancient branch of the Democratic Party dissolve? It is said that when Lincoln freed the South, the North remainded intact. This is the unravelling of Frankenstein's monster's knitted suit.

Illinois' governor [Blagojevich] was a man playing amongst sharks; now they will devour him. He never picked up the cover of a gentle uncle or kept a careful reckoning of what was 'too much.' We see politicians carefully, but carefully, commenting on the brash governor or on the last one still in prison. Some already have jumped to distance themselves from him, even one from the last jellified administration. But Blagojevich is not alone. What's happening?

Illinois is going broke. In fact it has been in the hands of liquidators of various kinds for thirty years. Like a cancer patient is vulnerable to many separate but related ills, so Chicagoland was brought low. The harbinger of the illness was the rise of gaming in the eighties; and 'gaming' is strategy and tactic in one. The loss of industry under the attacts of hostile buy-outs, down-sizing, exiling and dismantling USA employer base in favor of investor and commodity manipulations significantly brings us into the hands of financial terrorists---criminals. I have watched as this bunch has stifled creativity and progress in industry whereof we would already be "Green." High-milage is the bane of importers and their brokers. Which brings us to the main point here. Racism obscures classism. Classism affects health, education, economy and ecology.

In fact, the election of a race-sensitive candidate has temporarily stripped the racist layer to reveal the classist mechanics of human commodity and the objectification required for conquest. Really it's vile; the reslut of nepotic patronage and business in-breeding. It directly endangers our country. Keep pulling at that thread.
