peter diamond

this is a  trick sleeve original 

------------------------------------------

   some lilly livered 
               stuff 
             on ssi "reform"
                         by an old timer

who made  his professional bones 
  building 
various
 intergenerational toy models 



===============================================
facts in and out :

"Life expectancy
 at age 65 
has risen by four years 
for men
 and five years
 for women since 1940"

 -----------fine 
so far
but ....

left out here
the real embedded 
assumption 
going forward
        faster slower what ?

 75 years from now ...
 
why caution?

seriously off 
     prior  estimates 

fact
the actual longevity 
         growth  rate 
in amerika 
has slowed dramatically


so much so 
uncle's actuaries
 in the mid 80's
signifigantly 
       over estimated 
    todays longevity

yup 
 even  now 
  the "how long"  diff
           has proved 
                 to have 
                  added  fuel 
                        back then 
                     to the first
                       false crisis fears 

so iz this at least in part
  more of the same ?

built in here toois there 
a preposturous longevity
 to  " exacerbate exacerbate"

aahhh indeed 
   the law 
   of the righteous demagogue   -----------------



 fact :

" Between 1983 and 2002,
 the percent of aggregate earnings 
above the maximum taxable level 
            ncreased from 10 to 15."

--------------------hot stuff
  my estimate if uncle 
  pops  off the cap

u get an instantaneous
  base increase 
   of 900 bills 
and 900x12.5= 
  over 100 new bills 
     to pour into 
 the" as we go" pot---------------- 

 "Furthermore,
 the extent to which people 
with higher earnings and more education
 tend to live longer 
than those with lower earnings 
and less education has also increased."

  ------------- a  widening gap
                 wow 
okay 
       so the benefit stream
   has a wealth up-tilt 
then re tilt the pay in too -----------


-----------------------------------------------

the legacy debt:


fact :

" The benefits paid 
to almost all 
current and past cohorts
 of beneficiaries
 exceeded 
what could have been financed 
with the revenue
   they contributed,
 including interest"

---------  well 
a pay as u go system 
has no "perfect reason"
    to view itself against this standard

    talk 
about conversion rate here

  and a theory of how
you measure
real inter- cohort burdens 
sure the fucker
gets complicated 
but  
well...read on 
---------------------------------------------- 

 "This  imposes a "legacy debt"
 on the Social Security system. "


---------- legacy debt

get use to this concept
its the good burger
klass- rip 
  term of art---------



 "there's a legacy debt
   if earlier cohorts
in a reirement system
 unless they
   received only 
the benefits 
that could be financed 
by their contributions plus interest"

if that were the system:

"  the trust fund's assets 
would be much greater today."


----in other words 
if the NEW  deal
 FDR GAVE US
wasn't as it iz
"pay   as u go"

but instead
  a  compulsory pay in
             mutual  fund 
where  u're pay in
    bought u individual shares 
that  apon retirementu cashed out 
and bought an annuity 

you'd have got out less
and the funds present value would be greater 


by the way 
how ya like the idea 
of  a mutual fund 
stuffed full of  t bonds ?---------------

 "If those expanded assets existed,
 they would be earning interest 
that could contribute to benefits. "

------------- interesting 
two  possible path  comparison 
brings out ponzi potential of  pay as u go 

once pay out begins
only requirement 
        to perpetuate

the pay in cohorts  pay in
   has
to keep growing 
at least as fast as
         the pay out cohorts pay out  

                     see
the looming
  old  cohort v   young cohort
                             steam boat race here
 notice 
     thiz prick
                "pete "
         iz slippin uz
  selected comments  only ---------------

"A reasonable estimate
 of the program's legacy 
that needs to be financed 
by those younger than 55 years old
 is $11.5 trillion."

---gad zoockz 
attention bushwahzee
new angle of approach here for ya...
unlike yer gibber
thiz number 
 iz already larger 
then the whole economy 

    got one that today
looks  any bigger ? 

i doubt it

put this fucker
in some
 a   fine hellish
           patsy  generation 
       bomb throwers hands and ......           
 

-------------

" the term crystallizes 
the need to allocate the cost
 of the assets 
 that are not there
 across future cohorts "



-----------man re-read that 
"assets that are not there"--------------


" In particular,
 relative to a world 
in which the legacy debt 
   didn't exist,
 future generations 
will have to bear 
  some combination
 of higher taxes 
and lower beneefits "

-------------  boooooom -------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------- 
enter the doc....


"A Balanced Reform Plan 

Our plan has three components, 
each of which addresses 
one of the factors 
listed above 
that contribute 
to the long-term deficit "


 

 

"Many observers have recognized 
that it makes sense 
to adjust Social Security automatically
 for the effects 
of increased life expectancy."


--------- why ?
cause job time max
 is hiding behind
 all the big boy solutions 


trade off?

raise the rate 
so the longer retirements are supported
by the then
employed wagery

like atlas hefting 
 up a bigger earth 
"just work harder guyz"-------
 

 

"  we propose gradually raising 
the maximum taxable earnings base 
until the share of earnings 
that is above the base—
 slowly declines until, 
in 2063, 
it is returned 
to roughly halfway 
between its current level 
and its level in 1983."


---------- no no
go all the way 

besides if if not
  why just split the diff ?
shit
 the devil steals ten bucks 
from ya 

so what do you do?
take five back 
and call yourselves even ?----------------



 Second, to make Social Security
 somewhat more progressive,
 and thereby offset 
the effects of disproportionately
 rapid gains in life expectancy
 among higher earners, 
we propose a benefit reduction
 that affects only relatively high earners.

--------- super principle guy 
pete i sure kin kinda love dis bit   -------------------

"  Currently, about 15 percent
 of workers newly eligible 
for Social Security benefits 
have sufficiently high earnings 
that a portion of those earnings 
falls in the highest tier
 of the Social Security benefit formula.
 Our benefit adjustment
 for income inequality 
includes a gradual reduction 
in that highest tier 
           of the benefit formula."


----------- lets move on this one gang 
top 15% get their  shortz  tightened ------------- 



" to distribute the  burden
    more fairly, 
 stabilize the ratio 
of the legacy debt 
to taxable payroll 
from one generation
 to the next "

------------------  here it fuckin come 
                                ham string junction -----------------

analogy:

" a sensible goal
 for the federal budget
 is to stabilize 
the ratio
 of public debt 
to the economy"

----------- oh really ?
thats a flat tax for the generations 
 what about the progressive principle
we use for household incomes?
                          is that unfair   non sense ?

how about taxation without representation then 
now theres a wickedly sound precept
our nation cherishes -----------



 " we would impose a legacy tax 
on earnings above the maximum taxable earnings base,
 thereby ensuring that very high earners
 contribute to financing the legacy debt 
in proportion to their full earnings. 
The legacy tax above
 the base 
would start at 3.0 percent
 and increase "

 

" we would impose a universal legacy charge 
on future workers and beneficiaries,
 roughly half as a benefit reduction 
for all beneficiaries becoming eligible 
in or after 2023,
 and the rest
 as a very modest increase 
in the payroll tax
 from 2023 onward. 

We start these changes
 after the last of the changes 
legislated in 1983 has taken effect.
 This universal legacy charge 
would gradually increase 
over time to help stabilize 
the ratio of the legacy debt
 to taxable payroll. 


============================================
the rest of this beasty boy 
to be plowed thru later......

This approach to financing 
the legacy debt 
reflects a reasonable balance 
between current and distant generations,
 between lower earners and higher earners,
 and between workers
 who are currently covered 
by the program 
and workers who are not. 

It is meant to keep 
the full cost of servicing 
the legacy debt 
from simply being pushed further 
into the future 
for our children and grandchildren 
to pay. 

As an alternative
 to some of our proposals 
for benefit reductions 
or revenue increases,
 policymakers could dedicate 
revenue from another specific source
 to Social Security.

 For example, the estate tax
 could be reformed
rather than eliminated entirely,
 and 
some or all of that revenue 
could be dedicated 
to Social Security. 

---------------love this
 take the rich guys treasure 
and use it to support retired workers -----------------



 


unexpected inflation rip ?
 
Currently, there is no protection 
against unexpectedly high inflation 
in the years between ages 60 and 62.

 For example

 a repeat of the inflation rates 
of 1980 and 1981 (14.3 percent and 11.2 percent)
 would reduce the real benefits
 for a cohort by almost 25 percent.

 Extending indexing in a no-cost fashion 
protects against this risk. 

bene cut ?

 the 1983 reform 
reduced benefits 
by about ten percent 
for those 25 years old 
at the time of the reform,


. 

Individual Accounts? 

 

 " recent individual account plans 
typically do not provide 
genuine funding

instead, they simply assume 
that money will be provided 
        from the rest of the budget.
 Despite growing concerns 
about the magnitude
 of the budget deficit"


-------- no the borrowing 
power of the general social budget out of the trust funds will be scotched
thats the immediate objective 
 of these  wally world scams 
generate a  deeper federal fiscal crisis
so the meat axe 
can be taken to the social budget ---------------



 

" Without real funding, 
individual accounts 
do not accomplish anything 
for the economy."

-------------odd passage 
"real funding"
must mean  ripped by taxation
   out of funds headed toward household consumption ------------
 

 
  "magic asterisk" 
approach:
      simply assuming 
that trillions of dollars
 will be provided 
from the rest of the budget
 despite the nation's 
substantial fiscal gap
  puts 
 the future 
of Social Security
itself at risk. 
if payroll-tax revenue 
is taken 
from Social Security
to fund private accounts 
and no alternative funds 
are provided
to pay beneficiaries
this 
creates  
grave new risks  
for workers and retirees. 


--------- but of course 
isn't  that
   wall streets
  " final solution" anyway  pete  ?------------------

31 gen x  braces to bare brunt
of  huge boomer burden
  the boomers attempt to force social contract 
compliance on the after boomers
  will mean a pair of generations groaning under them
  will they be atlas
  and bare up mightily knowing the y afters 
will never do the same
 for them
 or turn blind  samson
 and pull down the whole over arching rights and priveledge
  boomers feel entitled
to live on  and on  off  
surely without scads of immigrents
it will porve too big piece of  gen x’s  labors

  the two wedges the work wedge and the benefits wedge
   till now nicely   inverse with the high ratio of
 workers to supported 


but but but   gen x not big enough to be easily  ponzi schemed
 into carrying the  burden of the  boomers 
the way dirths did the gappers and greatests did the whole
 damn system 

youngest greatests are now 73 
they should all get out the other end 
 before the tower topples
 however  youngest
   dirths at  57
 doubt they can safely expect to get out in time
    say expect to shoot thru at 85 thats
   28 more years thats 2031
   intergenerational transfer system
should be under have strains by then dear ones
  start making some provision
 dirthites they may yank you of the respirator
   will your still typing your memoirs

 then again 
   2031 is all long road off
 ten big years  after the national pivot year of 2021
  when the pattern of our national destiny calls for a hugo
  course correction struuggle 
 like 1781 , 1861, and 1941
 who the hell can tell
  maybe mexico  nigeria and brazil  will be supporting a good lot of us
 by then . maybe our better offs’ll l be clipping coupons from s&b of yankcorps
 with vast holdings in those
  toilful nations of the future
 and the Homerish plebstockracy
 can get enough mex/wog scurriers
  to come state side and work

  33  so you want to be a hyperpower

 what are the long  reach types 
grasping about the future world

   does he eventually get

do you really still  want to be a hyperpower?

 not as a final holy gathering

  or a thousand year reich

 where are the coops of victorian vision

could the not accumulate fast enough
were they to slow at decision making 
or did they just need 
to be more willing to fail and start again
  mill envisioned the merge of work and ownership 
 and a bust of industry thrift care you name it
once workers owned the value of their work
 thru share owning the enterprise
yugo coops
like yugo cars a joke

start ups
stakeholder idea
attempts to allign workers
interests with owners interests
  the esops/ cyclepos

 the work house and the labor camp 

 each a progressive system
 for  the correction  of social crimes 
  on the one  side 
 not having any  work results of your own
  and on the obverse side
having too many  work results of others
 economic   scylla and cherybdis
      both crimes curable

 the fuck union 

  the meaning of life 

before 16 you have it all ahead of you 
after 25 its all over


before its all possible after its all over 
in between it never really hapens

from I can be anything to this jobs not me
in ten short years 


26 and house broken 
its over man
theres no  escape from the endless volley 
job time familly time back and forth
the commute as heaven or hell
the balls in the air only then

the marriage trap the nesters nature
from a quest for arrival to a search for escape

the born again moment
between 16 and 25 meaning  must happen 
but society has no use for you then
the sirens call to tavern  slut or stadium 


------------------------


    the cult of public goods

  after a brief dash past a chunk of  miltons
wonderous  magnum o 

i started this meditation

  maybe the concept of the love
 the lust the craving the bleeding desire 
 for unlimited goods is where its at 
because we have such a deficiency 
 of   human produced  public goods 

lets call them
 secularly producible  finite   spinoza daemons 


   i have a necessary problem with mr S and his godheadlove 
recipe for human bondage to  rival stretchless  object-desires 

 finally for me this simple obvious answer 
 solves it 
 make more public goods 
but make them popular 
vote on them 
with intensity ranges 
and total vote budgets 
what can we make happen if we all work on it together 
  but but but
what can be 
 this  love that is and remains  undiminished
 by new lovers 
  the love that in fact is more joyous  individually 
        the more it is shared
  
  what is  this  manufactured  communal  good fortune
that 
 like a driving rain after a draught
benefits all 

  this communal love fest 
this unconsumable all you can swallow  libation

take a look 
see us little critters 
  all drinking at once
and damn it not from some  past and passable cup 
but as if the sky was pouringdown  ambrosia on everyone at once 
pouring it in huge wobbly globs
  
 huge winking drops
smart shape shifting  drops 
 that only hit open mouths
and  dead center too 

“wow thats tasty” 

  when its coming down like that  
 you just look up and open and glop glop glop glop 
right in the middle 
and its everywhere 
like sunshine 

 take  your fill buster
 go ahead  swallow your  pleasures limit 
    plenty more where that came from 
hell mates theres enough for all of us   
---------------------------------------------------
      the Faust mind 
the restless mind 
the hey waiter  get me today’s special 
kinda mind 

thats what the public good can wash out 
 the public good can wash the faustiness right out of a soul 

yes drown 
 the snatcher of secret spells 
  the nixon ghosts 
the always after spells guys 
spells  that would be worthless
 if we  all could utter them at once 
  
the source of  the devine private  profit 
 the secret treasure machine  unshared 

 none of this 
“  we’re all winners today boys”
 
oh ya ?
why not give me a for instance

“ok 
say the great  diety of chance one fine night 
decides to   answer every petty  stakers   pray 
on the big multi mega bucks  now eight weeks unwon
  rolled over    lottery
 
 watch out  !!!!!!
     the massive prize once all  cut up and cut down   
   so many ways so many winners 
 think about it 
my lord that nite for once 
the  fortunate  would riot 
 the answered prayers would be cursed 
as a rip off

 this is the parable of marketable products 
  where the ex ante special is the ex post ordinary 
 the big rook 

        the wish granted is the outer orbit of the voluntary 
beyond that there is the terrible  convergence
of pleasure and disappointment 
 
  public goods and public evils 
  once worshipped as gods
  they  will ever escape
 the burgers mind scan 

take   9/11 
for the burger boys 
9/11 spelled private opportunity 
not public grief 

they are blind and deaf to 
collective actions consequences
they may  preach  
the free for the first the best the swiftest 
  any one can win and thousands will  
  you’re all  all above average
rebate outcome
no purchase necessary  
this is  
  the burger bits come on 
ofcourse it is  a lie 
hell if  its marketable its for losers and dopes 
sure its always  
  its strictly between us consenters 
 mr  rube and sir carney 

and 
if  some  ass hole third fucking party don’t like it 
   then  they can kizz   my silver sided  wank
------------------------------------------------------------- 

such is the good of  a public good 
we can all be 
 parties of the first part 
  
this is not about total abundence this is about 
finite goods that are 
in fact like a strong poem inexhaustible goods 

 production of one lets you say         
    “ go ahead if you like 
   its all  yours 
feel free pal 
  its on the house
 plenty more where that came from ”

 i wanta make me some of that 
 tell me 
hows that thought  feel to you 

you old prolecat you

       it ain’t so easy bein red

if you just happen
 to be a peasant

now i’m not
talkin about a red 
“sprung” from peasantry
like Mao
maybe thats actually
just grand 

no i mean
 bein red and still 
“ tendin to a paddy”

 from the small plot
 low tech
paddy’s eye view

red policy
 can get 
to the point
real too fast 
where
 its 
 mighty tough
 to chew
and
even harder
 to  swallow

=========================
 reds 
smart ones any way 
 start out fine

phase one
iz 
usually some kinda 
land to the tiller
deal

and where
ever peasants
 get into that action
the results
 are super 
the tide
 lifts all boats 
long as 
the cadre 
don’t push
the chop up
to far down

too far 
below
 landlords
and 
too deep into
 kulack territory 

the fat to meat line
 gets 
problematic

needing 
a step by step
walk thru

but as far as 
cuttin thru
 landlord holdings 
there is no too fast 

where land hunger
 runs
so far back 
and 
 so deep
the appetite
is boundless 
and 
the guilt
 weightless

   pension heaven 

back 30-40
years ago 
 in the golden age 
of Nordic
social  democracy



 the big unions 
 up there
 where the fir trees
 grow straight and tall 
loved  talking up
  pension fund socialism 

they ‘d just
 get around 
the council fire 
and dream 
 
“ yimmany Nils 
 our   pension funds
 can  out grow
the private capitalists 
own bundle  ”
 
what a conception 
eventually dominating 
the social capital of 
whole blonde  countries 

  several great Danes
 in the early 70s
the very early 70s 
even claimed 
 they had it all figured out 
they knew just when
the cross over to worker
stock control would occur 

shit 
like predicting a comet’s
 
EARTH CRASH POINT 

the trend numbers told the tale
 union funds would pass 
 privateers  holdings 
once and for all 
 by the year  2000
voila 

socialization of 
social capital
passing the tipping point 
in one generation 
and without so much
 as a fart fired
in anger 
------------------------------------

here it is 3 past 2000
and 
well what happened ?

  a lot 
only not trend line stuff

 the great 30 year wage war
 kicked in 
right about as the ink dried 
on that Danish sure thing  


today the pensions
even the nordic union pensions 

 far from taking over
 are on the critical care list 

and far more  basic

the Korporate  Goblins 
 have completely 
 changed the game
--------------------------------------------

 STAY TUNED

firms and coops 
by any other name
 are still .......

but waite waite 
check out the changes 
check out the updates and innovations
these guys ain’t cookin up
 the same old american chop suey here 

let me digress im bored 

what would end up different if we had elected judges 
with fixed terms vs 
 lot drafted juries 
 bench master juries with facilitators and expert aids 


no lets swing back to
 why participation not representation 

true enough madison bodies have shown 
some pretty confined and preverted 
outer limits over the past 200 years or so 
last best hopes and all not with standing 
even with high octane gladstonian electorates
one has quams 
so scrap it folks 
this is no way 
to
 calm smooth 
 class strife free 
  progress
if we’re to travel any further 
 on the road to social salvation 
we need a directer method
 of popular governance 


the multitude awaits the call to action


ooops !!!
here comes the thundering 
plebocratic moron 
 herd/horde/hive
Homers on the range amuk 

so well talk radio aol tap yes or no 
thumbs up or thumbs
 down 
goose goose goose goose 
bring in the closer 
roar roar roar 
 is O-U-T
 out 
jesus jump suit 
remember the berlin olympics
 for fuck sake the guy had 
the great German proletariat
in Elvis hood of him
SHIT HITLER’S
         RANT DADDY RANT 
WAS THE RAP A TAP TAP 
OF HELLS ANGELS EUROPE
 
no good thinkers 
 mobocracy is no answer 
too rough to crude to stupid and herdish
no even stifle
is better then 
  stampede
in fact thats what you end up getting 
a herd not a horde 

---------
the market as price computer 
the computer as market sublator 

these two pilgrims have only the recipe 
for markets hidden in the mists of abstraction here 
their blue prints will build nothing real let alone new 

the attempt to wed the voluntary to the total 
is like natonalizing the clas of workers to betray their own interests
its more benign less tasty 
but wrongo wrongo wrongo 

to abolish state force is easy just abolish conflicts of interest 
end personal frredom
by drawning it in an ocean of democracy
oh these poor pilgrams
to avoid stalin they 
take a path 
that leads right to him
totalization without totalitarianism is a joke sisters 
force has a need 
lambs and lions 
will not bed together by a group vote 
compulsion and high pointy hats
i see a shining  city on a hill 
all right 

real actual when it happens conditions  matter

its 1865 
legal slavery ends the one shot 
cure all wonders
like Garrison god love him anyway 
 close up shop
 and
what do you get 
 you get 80 years 
jim crow share cropping
lynch law and fuck hell 

not yeoman paradise

the africans forced over here 
 had to fight for 100 years 
to really  get what
 the white  war winners  claimed
they gave black folk 
in 1865 


==========================

unmediated 
  meditations on yesterday’s
 drakish darling and  tomorrows class  clown 
   the     negritude brigades
fearless peerless leader 
the ngri in ngritude 
 tony the tiger black

 he seemed  gone by 82 and then 
late 90’s later    
 he’s  back for a second run
thanks to
a particularly harmonious duet 
between politcal  prison 
and polemical  publishing 
    

don’t worry kids 
I’ll  bring out the buzz bombs soon enough 

 but let me bore you first 

 mao told me 
always  start with an easy up to speeder
 
 
  by the way komrades 
 from here on in 
as we pass the various exhibits remember
 in the house of paine 
 value  always means  exchange -value
never never does the naked word value ever ever 
mean  use value or utlity value  or instrumental or material or real value 
or any of the infinite contradictory things
 we all  actually find  form time to time 
we  have a need or at least  a desire 
   to produce or at least  to consume 

all the things like oxygen  and sunshine  
 we get for free (so far)  
  from the water we must now buy  all the way
 to the apples and ribs and plasma screens 
 
all the things 
we’d hunt and gather   if we could 
 likeVinny Price does
 in the last  man 
all things we exchange for 
only because we have to 
since so few of us  
 can be  like Crusoe 
 and  make them  ourselves if we have to 
 or better yet  get Friday to make 
them for us 

   


also regardez vous 
this other key  catch term 
proforce 
 which is obviously 
a wise guys glib contraction 
of the hallowed   productive forces 

 i use this term not out of sedulous parroting 
or a weakness for the antique 
but rather  because its 
 a phrase bigger then technology

proforce  includes size or amount of capacity 
not just technique types themselves 
not the blue prints 
the real bricks  steel and glass
the real dynamos and super drills  
that is to say 
proforce  includes
  the absolute and relative quantity of 
the actual  elements of production 
the factors in all their detail old and new used and idle 
the physical system of production itself
viewed through its capacity to produce  

on the other hand  
prorel is obviously
the nasty counterpart to
 that wonderous source of confusion contusion 
and various orders of mayhem
 production relations 

which is the social - economic viewing 
of the same system 
this  strictly scientifically  speaking
is where the trouble turns double 


I know I know you’re thinking
“ shit 
this  bizness  of his 
is really fast
turning out to be 
just the fucking  usual
  web site fevered brain  dump  
some spare time hegel 
pecking out his credo/reducto 
 and crying  out 
to calmly  turning globe   
 “ please people listen and learn  
i got the real word here  .....
come on fellas 
take a minute or two 
read on 
 my thing here  is  a big big thing 
a genuine where its at thing  ” 

god bless you each and ever one 
of you if you plow on 

finally 
let me warn you 
i’m a reckless DiaMat kinda  guy 

so for your own safety 
please please  try to  hold tight  to the notion 
that  the two warring twin  halves
 porF and proR 
you will see grappling away
 in front of your eyes
 are in reality 
like the various  quarks of matter itself   
inextricably   mutually ineluctably  
contradictorily  necessary
to  make absolutely
everything around here  happen 

this world  my world 
is built on such siamese  conflictors 
which ( and here’s the rub )
you the innocent patient reader  must constantly 
  and tiresomely sort out 

  “this  bit here is about you mistress F
whereas this is about you master R” 


reason one 
our subject itself 

 negri et als 
 and their socalled 
  decentralization  first world  revolution
    is a wickedly good case of not holding tight 

  in all this bold new thinking
of theirs  
 conflictors get confused right and left 

it gets so bad negri finally has to 
turn 
MARX  back into  SPINOZA 

thats right   the dialectic
gets  abolished 
to make way for 
the Negrian  multitude  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 whats at the moving edge of negri’s rev 

well it has at least  two modes 
 first there’s the exciting 
new “electronic”  commodity services 

sector 

and then also there’s  old services
and industrial sectors but now 
 revved up sky high  by technical progress
 

negri turns  a prorel/ proforce 
 contradiction argument 
 into a mess up 
 then takes even this way beyond 
itself  usual operating range 
with the misfortunate result

 (if not the secret  concious objective) 


that  

 1  the new ways of producing services 
 and the new exploited  class it creates 
can   easily and painlessly 
 escape from the exploitation web

it turns out pilgrims 
merely to know where you are 
is enough not to be there anymore

  “beam me up Scotty”

 its a proforce determinization of rev conditions
spontaneous overthrow 
 its a tipping point 
a veritable knifes edge 

in other words a full bore 
 sergeant pepper
 horse feather operation

no need for lenin type dynamos  no need for 
  senseless weberian bureaus 
 thats right you heard it 
no social- to err is human- staffed
apparati 
no  engineering type
 cost/benefit 
stuff 
 and best yet no  stalins steel  tanks 
imagine the rev
being able to say to history 
 thanks for the tanks 
but no thanks  
we’re going stateless baby stateless 

thats right no party no 
barracades 
no prefigurations 
no stages necessary
just  strait from here 
 to statelessness 

its human 
its verbal
 its iconic 
its ironic 
 its sonic 

ladies and gents 
 in this over throw
the  symbols are the   substance
 
the refered is the referer is the reference itself 
  the other is the brother to the self 
phone your clone 
the infoplex is the  reflex is the prefex is the suffex is
the complex is the multiplex is the superplex 
 is the transplex
 is the never ending always new always and sometimes
scary and deeply joyous   n-plexication  
of reality 


yes gang the nexodus is the exodus  
proletarianly speaking ofcourse 

in a phrase 
the rev can be imagineered into existence 
virtual liberation at the cost of only  virtual blood 
virtual sweat virtual tears 

the empire has no emperor 

its now really all just a  free your mind instead type
  proposition 


this decenterization
 of the  proforces 
which is worked  and reworked
with a  slackless  dedication
a faithless self  promotion 
a never ending   
 pop goes the weasle 
round and round we go
same trick as last show 
  ass drying towel motion 

  follow us cadets as we  
armed with findings ripped from the pages
 of tomorrow’s  sunday supplements 
  we brass our way past 
 realitie’s gate keepers 
with  a barrage of wordful wordiness 

now i must say 
compared to world class charlatan standards 

THIS LATER NEGRI has not  
 the tight knotty  weave
you find in a real quality product 
there’s too little of the smell 
of  n earlier generations
 of   ink beclouded cogitations 
behind  or beneath this stuff 
it lacks the truly gifted hocus pocus 
 we associate with say a Heidigger  
 
 “negri wants to be a marx
he wants to be a great man 
 is that so wrong”
 
 
  neat new things on the market 
have  allegedly created a sector where labor can self valorize 
 free itself from the  capitolist strings better the wires or monitory probes 
and sensors of capitol 
i did it all myself here at  home
 andi don’t owe a piece  of it to the man either

i despite the negri et al description of the one as the other 
it just  isn’t  so 

 a deconcentration of an ever  larger section
 of the work force itself 
is a change in the system of productive forces
  the productive relation remains the same 
 first world 
what can we do ism 
we’re stuck here in this aweful old first world 
  we want to change things we’re tired of cheering and doing from the sidelines 

 there’s no spainish civil war to join 
  hunger is its own reward and punishment 
  the shining path the npa they only want my money 
and my fandom 
i don;t want to root toot toot i want to be the revolution

 well kids heres how you can heres how you are 

  the seventies one decade of action needs 
at least two more to get digested 
 hence  sour seventies negri 
 has a rebirth when his brilliant career move puts himself in the 
  slammer with cocktails 
and pubs out empire 
an anti lenin polemic 
where the pebbles can get a load of 
the  first empire without an emperor  
 the first empire where we are all innocent and we are all guilty 
 where nations oppressed andd opressing melt away 
    the good and the bad are stateless org 
 rizomes are just communes 
with a better cash crop 
but without a pecker 

at least we had free love back  in the sixties
even if the weed we grew was lawless and lousy 
even if the parents sent money sometimes 

 the real world is not a dystopia 

  the answer is not in a magic formula 
a spell a conjury 

an intentional self constructed 
counter community 
social paradise in one rizome 

in  certain faster growing areas of value  production 
where the immateriality of the product it self 
 or at least many of the tasks involved in the  production 
process   ( i.e. in this  new wired/ wireless  world of ours  )
 
by the way rangers 
this is all covered in my pamphlet 

telegraph to Internet
 how we got to this  weird and whacky world

and try looking also in al able’s 
 
 whats next :
  now that  they locked us out of the plant 
  
 
 several qualitative stages here obviously 
however the trend in the spatial pattern of production of surpus value 
  

the cap system is all about the ownership and appropriation 
of that surpus productions value 
 and the consequential need for control
over what is paid for the value produced
remote monitoring allows supervision at a distance 
  for time based compensation of productive  activities
delocalization kind of a new cottage phase 
for non mareial outputs 
with near zero transport costs
  monitored home work at countable levels 
 inside further   socialization  of production  

   the on going process of socialization of production 

is now shutting the wagelings out of the plants 
  like earlier it shut them off from the land 
 meanwhile the socialization of more and more domestic tasks goes forward 
as well as th4e further automation of domestic chores
laundry dishes etc entertainment 
the domestic produce or buy line is shifting out and out 
cooking   meals 
cacooning is possible because more and more the market enters the home itself 
 there are ups and downs ofcouse
 take home delivery itself 
down because the wifes at work and has own car to boot 
but online purchases 24/7 emerge 
so process complex in the overall activity count 
between at home vs out 

 america goes out more to wage earn
 gives up more per capita hous to wagery 
  travels more  and further on vacation 
  less time intensive leasure less kicking back 
more hard playing with attendent commodity needs 

large scale    factory Vs
in situ node  network   see above for expanded desscription of this 

  fordism Vs toyotaism 

this is not qualitatively different really 
  smaller buffer stocks more accurate production
 smart market alerted production
however spec booming still very real look at internet over capacity boom late 90’s  

    affective labor Vs mute labor 

  epistemic = ontic 

  the language / communication / info rev 

the product is the producer 
the radical subjectivity
 of this range of  commodity  

  info rev transformation 
immaterial goods  Vs material  good 

centralisation of production VS   radical decentralisation
 centralization of control alone 
can’t store  final products if their bodily labor

informatisation vs industrialisation  
-------------------------------------------------

  negri error one

  the universal machine myth 
 the deskilling process 
 the drop out actually keeps you in 
in hegemon’s game  

if you don’t fight it you are part of it 
inaction is affirmation
booing is not enough
  reclusion rejection is not enough

to detarget america first 
is pandering for uncle 
maybe negris package deal involves 
 too much even for his ilk 

 error two 

  nolonger is labor a force activated and made coherent by capitol 
  labor can valorize itself 

  elementary communism

  error three 

condescension to
right wing  social democracy 
 no critique of social market theory 

we’re to swallow the line that
 a massive “ paradigm shift”
fomr mechanization to infomatization 
 has left  industrial “ mass labor”
 and its  leaders 
 behind like the craft  elders 
and guild masters  
were left behind by the factory system
and the trade skills left behind by mechanization

 the formal subsumption of a sector by capitol 
preceeds the stage where the profit guided 
technical revolution
 of production in that sector
 transforms the tasks of that sector  
and thus the skill set of the production force itself
this is a many many times over process of development 

the modern hospital may be on the verge of such a
major morph now its a for profit biz 
 we should see the tearing apart of venerable 
professions
surgery may be radically deskilled as it is mechanized


bows by negri to 
  popular  front type  rear guard actions in the first world
does not trace the powder trail to the point where the real blow up will occur 
the third world countries that are producing the latest
 world commodities 
 china is too successful 
look to an india a brazil or an indonesia next 

that assumes black arfrica and the arab world remain mrginal 
sources of natural or agrarian  products
 like oil and coffee 

thus no 
  no analysis of bribed worker first world 
nationalisnm redirecting itself into third world cops for the man
 from production worker to security  worker 
  
add to the  Simon Lagree/ Adam 12 
 wing of the  AFL 

maybe they’ll create a soldiers airmen  and sailors union 
what with the inexorable march to the machines
in the armed forces 
and the consequent increase 
in each combatants productive power 
maybe the boys and girls need a little representation 
which should lead to full robotization 
the machine not only watching
counting analizing 
 but enforcing as well 

killed by the machine 
scary enough to end 
  the armed soldier 
and thus the final feather bed  

-------------------------

carlson wrote Gung Ho
he has a new complex of ideas about combat units
officer enlisted relations etc etc 
 he has a clear headed notion of the jap menace 
 to east Asia and the pacific and the us 
 he has a clear big picture idea 
 of the role of our  multi national corporations in the jap  
 machine 
where’s your soldiers reform 
unit philosophy 
 comprehension of world picture
 like this 
 your a great one for specific failures of individuals 
but corruption is the human condition
 what about the system promotes this corruption
 you write for school boys 
you’re  like a  swim coach
or boy scout leader  
 like  Horatio Alger 
talking  about acquirable 
 habits of mind and body 
 we need an institutional vision 
 the  armed services
 are not coming out of a vacuum 
 they are not self producing 
 their mission is the product of their environment 
 and the type of institution they are 
 forget their failure of execution
 whats their failure or crime of purpose

why did we spend 6 trillion dollars 
on our cold war machine 
even if you could have done it for 
 3 trillion or 1 trillion
 wasn’t the mission wrong 
who defined it 
why 
what did they get 

if you stand to make 2 trillion  bucks 
only if you can stick  someone else 
with most of the 6 trillion tab  

how do you con them into it 

 the us stockholders investment 
in western europe 
 value in 46 
value  in 91  
 without cold war 
what would it be 

 what part of the  6 trillion defense debt 
will they and their descendants pay 

what did joey pay check get out of the 
6 trillion 

 we at butler think we know who
benefited by the cold war 
so we say they need to pay 
uncle back 
 pay the fee for the service 
it won’t be cheap 
remember the trump debt tax on wealth idea 
we like it for this 6 trillion tab of theirs 


but we hope they got their money’s worth
 we don’tthink they were thinking they had borrowed
the dough

 to them it was more like a donation
to their team 
like a fans donation 

give us some big picture hack 


two marines with a bigger picture   



where’s the army boys 
 hack where’s yours 

bobby knight
 and Cheryl crowe  
 are waiting 
 and so are we 

up till now you’ve 
made a lot of hits 
but face it
 you ‘ve got   warning track power 
recalibrate swing up  and you can clear the fence 
you got the gizz Hack go for it 

let a nation turn its lonely eyes to you

  nam was not a just war 
  nam was not just a war 
  nam was just for war  profits
that was our line  

good question 
 define please
war profits 

we can do that for you 

 war profits are regular profits 
by other means 

they can be profits not 
possible by other means 
or just profits incidental 
to other war aims but 
well leveraged by the 
non profit contributions 


war profits and profiteers 

hack 

why can you see  multi national profiteers 
 hands all over  our weapons programs 
why can you see them influencing 
guiding corrupting our weapons programs
 
but  then fail to see their hand behind 
the  formulation  of    our  strategic mission 
 why can’t you see their motives 
 as the decisive ones 
time and time again 
behind all our specific
overseas  missions



take the case before us 
of Rummy vs theArmy  brass

  why only see in this the old chestnuts about civilian  politics 
 and profits distorting  the conduct of military operations 
 
isn’t the reality  most often some far deeper clash 
 a clash between the objectives of the profiteers and their hired pols 
 and  elements of the general staff
that god bless them retain some  sense 
of troop welfare  




 some of us   college kids
   claimed our  reasons
went   beyond 
   the fashionable flower child  
 secret  yellow streak     
we were never   peaceniks
never into 
 incense and hookahs
 ball your enemy shit 

 

  those of us looking 
for something more 
 then drop out irresponsibility
  to prop us up

some of us  found our grounds
 on the question of just or unjust  war 

 those of us who  despite 
our day by day   soaking
 in  sex and acid
 had a few  questions
  for uncle to answer
beyond
“ whats your problem asshole”
 
we wanted  a defense of the intervention 
 on the grounds of justice 
not national security 
not clear and present danger 
not crusade for freedom 

    well hack  we were never
given one because there wasn’t one 

maybe for quayle and little george 
TR’s great grand children
 preening on
  some variant of the willfully 
    amoral  macho  bull baggery 
 
 was and still is enough 
for them its enough to say 
“ we do it because we want to
 and we can ” 

the  play to  win or get out
 bizness
we guess you were into that then
are you now  

  by the way  we never in retrospect 
forgave   the coldwar  liberals 
 just because they finally decided   
can’t win
  so  get out
 we remember they started the war 
not Goldwater not  Curtis Lemay
not mad  general Walker 

------------

  modeling for the big one

small meditation
suppose back in 1929
 the earth was hit
 by a large space object
 that cause huge effects
 on the worlds climate
 and through those climate effects
 massive  decade long 
 human privation 
and ultimately a world war
  of devastating proportions
 
after something that huge
 one has to assume
  for ever after 
 we’d be studying the solar system
in enormous detail
trying to find the
next one
in time to
stop it from hitting us 
 and  youd figure
wed have rockets at the ready
and  an intercept plan
 all  pre tested

  well we had such a catastrophic
impact or forcing 
we had such an 
event only it wasn’t physical
it was economic
 and it was endogenous to
the system
and yet we have done less 
then the second pig did
to prepare for 
the  wolfs next  visit
  

its as if after the earth was struck
all those who
 the big wigs
  listened to
became more and more sure 
it could never happen again
not because the objects aren’t up
there or because
the striking intervals
 were reliably calculated
 to be on average
 1 million years apart

 
 no the complacence
relies largely
either on 
 the remedy 
offered 
 by keynes
whos theory 
ran aground in the 70’s
and
is as  often
 reputiated 
as praised these days
  or 
on   the work of lucas
which
 implies
 we couldn’t redirect
 the objects path
anyway
in fact attempts
would only make
 the consequences even worse

what really amazes 
  i don’t think most
  experts   today really 
  feel sure
they know more or less
 what and why 29 happened
 and  more importantly
 i dont think
 they really believe
 they could 
save the global economy 
 if it happened again

 no i think 
if at all they 
hope some how
the system
has evolved
and
 that it cant happen
now


or the powers that be 
would 
be the only obstacles
not holes 
in the science
 guiding the policy

     occupy the Mall of America 


      BRACE YOURSELVES
      

      brain wave coming your way 

  after two full quarts of diet coke
 this exceptional
piece of   brilliance 
came to me 

there I was 
  stuck in morning commute traffic
when wham it all just came gushing up 

so    call Michael Moore
 he’ll want in 
on the ground floor 

  theres enough good stuff here
 to go around 
believe me 
 the  red wagon is full today baby 

 first off
I want you to 
   focus on job one 
 organize the unorganized 

ok  now 
think 
 youth empowerment

and then 
   think
 Malling of America 


put them together and you got 
  
 the greatest class brake thru since 
yes
FLINT IN 37 

REMEMBER 

   think sit down
think Flint two 

THINK Akron redux 
think Lawrence 

FUCK THINK HAYMARKET 


now 
  think reality TV 


----------------------------------------------------
  its St. Paul Minn.

 fall 2004 
 and a cell is assembling 
a scary hip cell 
a cell of young would be

 KLASS planet shaker uppers

 a bunch of hand picked
 double trouble makers 
 bound and determined
 to trigger a klass quake here 
in the heart land 
of the Malled 

  yes doctor 
these kids are assembling for one purpose 
they ‘re dead set on whacking 
 market America
 right in the retail cubes
and during the hight of the holiday frenzy 

kicking off a contagious 
copy cat wave nation wide 

free the malls 
free the malls 

thats right they’ve all come here to 
gruesome  St. Paul  Minnesota
to live in a hell hole flat 
ten to a room 
way beyond the worst of monkish/nunish 
MTV phobic conjectures 

surrounded by
nothing but 
 redskinned derelicts
 and well wined black drift wood

and why 

just because  they have a shared dream
a michael moore dream  
a clean dream 
a dream to shut down 
the Mall of America 
over in Bloomington 
the fucking flagship 
of the whole  grotesque 
Great Amerikan Hustle

they want to plant  
 A big fat  stake 
 in the heart 
of   Riptown USA


hey isn’t it about 
 time 
to strangle
 the fucking holiday 
 profit baby 
right in its craddle 



 of course it is 

 and its all going to be on MTV

recorded as it happens 

yes
 as it  happens

ofcourse
 it must be  

so  fellow dingles 
lets 
  start the conspiracy


fuck hell 
every one 
will get  behind this gig 
they ‘ll have to believe
 
what with the glister
 of  Xmas  TV fame 
dancing in
their  heads 

 believe me 
 it will balloon

really balloon
 
right  into an open

scene one 


like the 7 samurai 
M M the man 
will criss cross
this god forsaken  land

 my land and your land 

he’ll cross
the whole of it 
sea to sea 
 all four corners 

yes 
the remarkable
 Mister MOORE 
will go everywhere 
to find the best 
 organizers out there
under 21 years old 
 
 maybe this can be 
shone best and nimblest 
as  flash backs
a new flash 
as each one of the org team 
 shows their pan 
 at crash pad/St. Paul

in true MTV style 
they  are of  
 every kind and shape 

but they come with 
  one mission 

get inside that
fucking 500 venue monster  mall 

get jobbed 

and start to 
suck in the wagelings 

girls and boys 

 the  occupation action
is now in motion 

big build up 
saturation 
call it the child of great things past 
call it 
an emblamatic prefigurative
of great things ahead 

call it a great thing now 

call it a 
  preemptive  
surprise peace on earth market  topple 

special  holiday season greetings
to you middle  America

from us millennial kids 

  
  serve us 
a fucking living wage 


any   fine print 
 MM
 can  voice over

we’ll craftily 
sprinkle it in
 amongst the realities 

watch 
as kiddos get comfortable
with each other 

see the austerity 
see the renunciation
   their new crasher/coop pad 
manifests 

what  uncanny  sweep 

what quixotistry 

and so very  up to date too 

what a scene 

  these raw mckids come 
 like banchees 
to seize this gem of 
   the invisible empire 
this painted whore 
 of market mad  Yankdom 

 and right at the holidays 

jingle bells jingle bells 
   WHAMMMMMM

 the whole thieving shit box 
shut down like the lid of a dumpster 

and from there the   call
 goes out 
 shut them all down 

 every mall every where 

and we won’t 
    reopen
 until all demands are met 

teeny weenies  of all ages
 come to the mall
 join us
 do the vigilation konga 
roats the pigs

the whole  world ain’t shopping 
the whole world ain’t shopping 

  and all of it  24/7 
on TTTTTVVVVVVVV

as MM productions 
gives the globe 
a live feed
  from inside
 the mall of occupation 
every surveillance camera
 in the place
LIT UP AND LINKED UP  

GLOBAL VILLAGERS 
meet the leaders 
meet the villans 
meet the rank and file heros
--------------------------------------------
flash  back 
to the job infiltration

  covered 
as just a reality show 
about mall jobitudes
 for the season 

see it all unfold in retrospect 
see the mallestery 
give it the green light smile 

   little aware the plotters are moving in
 like drake on the Armada 

see the orgers agitate on the job 
right under the dumbo noses of management 

see every fancy big time name plate store get
the class struggle 
 x ray  by
 DR MOORE 

see the supervisors cough it up 
as they tumble for
  sham spot lite  interviews
see them loosen up as they ‘re 
 made to feel like stars 
see the joblings grow in stinky manic 
anticipation 
 dying for the axe to drop 

in the end we git the ultimate closer 

its our  biz 
or no biz 

and either way its show biz

kapshow manifesto

( draft 1.2 )

 zero sum games are at the heart of most moral games

 the give and take that add to zero

 well cowpokes

playin with 
madam capitalism  
and her surruonding 
kapshow
her scheinvert
ain’t no zero sum simplicity

she’s hot and she putz out big time 

sure i know 
thatz why the lady is a tramp 
 
but as cole porter cutz it 
 tramps
  iz into   fun and frolic 

otherwise 
ole aunty fabian
 would have prevailed long ago 
 indeed itz all about the goodies 

the proles want goodies 
miss this and history backs up stream on ya 
you’re runnin the film backwards 
towards eden
not forwards thru shit and shinola
 to  the end of the road 
 paradise two 
----------------------------------------------

yes wagelings want fun freedom 
and tasty 
savors 
rock kandy mountains and happy hunting grounds 
a pair of wings and a harp 
nope
 not unless they ‘re trippin

and the worst
of it so far 
we reds ain’t built a better model

the kap show still
 pulls Homer in 
toonough of the time 


 partly thiz is ok 
 there’s a role in social development
for the burger klass
that spontaneously spawns the kapshow
burgers were the volunteer taxers the self taxers 
the accumulators
the financiers
 first of big productions
then of specialization 
and finally  of  mechanization

burgers inside the kapshow tents are claiming to still
put out more and prettier and sexier and healthier 
what ever you rubes sez you’re today in to 

question iz do they 

or if so when 

answer iz central 
 why 
cause 
  once again
no zero sum  game abounds
if they tickle whip and claw 
out more progress
then the big red machines 
well
proles vote with their feet if they have to

miller report :on wal-mart and then some

 ( parts of the commentary here
   will be  ghost posted
        by 
lady eve 
and trick sleeves....
       ....okay ....
           all of it will be   )


=================================
 
here's an article

containing 
the gutz
   of the miller report

       the hidden 
              public  subsidy 
                     assault 
             on walmart's
                    low ball
                            jobbling
                            of wagery amerika


---------------------------------------------------------
 

- ------------ good news ----------------


"  Stepped up
  and novel
 community and legal
     challenges 
    are making 
      the mammoth retailer 
             expend energy 
          on repositioning its image."

 Hence 
  
the major image-oriented 
television ads,

 the sponsorships  
on National Public Radio 

 and 
  the huge surge 
in campaign contributions.

  

--------------N.B. 

bottom  feeder communities rebel
on the location line 
internal memo reveals
toe pinch :


 "this  company 
 is losing "too many"
         site fights" -------------------------------

  

------------------------------------ 


thesis A:

lead in 
  to miller report:


  
" The company’s business model 
has relied   centrally 
on undercompensating employees 
and externalizing costs
               on to society. "

-----------------------------------



now to the real deal:


the miller report:


"A February 2004 report 
issued by Representative George Miller
 encapsulated 
the ways that Wal-Mart
 squeezes and cheats its employees,
 among them: 

blocking union organizing efforts,

 paying employees 
an average $8.23 an hour 
(as compared to more than $10
 for an average supermarket worker), 

extracting off-the-clock work, 
and providing inadequate 
and unaffordable
 healthcare packages for employees. 

Miller’s report’s 
innovation:


 documenting how Wal-Mart’s 
    low wages 
and inadequate benefits 
not only hurt workers directly,
 but impose costs on taxpayers. "


example numbers :


"The report estimated 
that one 200-person Wal-Mart store 
may result in a cost 
to federal taxpayers 
of $420,750 per year
 $2,103 per employee. "

----notice union maids

but fuck
this subsidy  problem 
 is endemic systemic
 ancient of age 
 and lethally intractable 
to agit prop useage

cause notice first of all
the chumps here
are all uz
  federal taxpayers 
not  some local property owners or ...

so where's
 the local negative impact story
if you're lokin to keep em out? ------------

" public costs include:

$36,000 a year 
for free and reduced lunches 
for  50 qualifying Wal-Mart families.
 
$42,000 a year
 for Section 8 housing assistance,
 assuming 3 percent 
of the store employees qualify 
for such assistance, 
at $6,700 per family. 

$125,000 a year 
for federal tax credits 
and deductions for low-income families,
 assuming 50 employees 
are heads of household 
with a child 
and 50 are married 
with two children. 

$100,000 a year
 for the additional Title I 
[educational] expenses,
 assuming 50 Wal-Mart families 
qualify with an average 
of two children. 

$108,000 a year
 for the additional federal healthcare costs
 of moving into 
state children’s health insurance programs (S-CHIP),
 assuming 30 employees 
with an average of two children qualify."


--great
 stuff
       but how do ya move 
  an  particular bunch of folks with it ? 

this is indeed why social spending exists in the present form
       we wagery pay for our own dorked  wage mates
   corporate  dorkery thats the reserve army systemfor ya

 loop  back the up keep
            of the  predator's surplus stock of  prey
        on the necessary prey themselves  --------------------

------------------------------ 

okay kool but largely useless
outside a college lecture hall 

  but here's somethin
 that at least is a  palpable 
                        state rap

---------------------------------------------

wal mash  doodle's
                  prop 72 

" In California, in November,
 the company was able to help stave off 
         by a 51-to 49 percent margin 

a state wide proposition 
that would have required 
every large and medium employer
 to provide 
decent healthcare coverage 
               for their workers
 
with the employer contribution
 set at a minimum 
               of 80 percent of costs." 

" Wal-Mart dumped 
a half million dollars 
into the anti-Proposition 72 campaign 
just a week before the vote. "



-----------undo influence ?
              now read this lovely patch 
                     of corporate  demo-speak-------------

“As one of California’s  
   leading employers,
 we care about the health 
of our 60,000 employees here,”

 “That’s why we provide 
our employees with affordable, 
quality health care coverage.” 

“Prop. 72 was never about Wal-Mart,” 


 “prop 72
    was about 
        unreasonable government mandates,
 it was about 
  the survival 
of small businesses 
and it was about 
  consumer choice
 in healthcare benefits.” 


-----text book eh?

"choice "
"unreasonable mandates"
and shit
how 'bout that 
small biz survival  buzz ?
love seenin' 
the timber wolf of timber wolves
  lookin after the sheeps' welfare  ---------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------
------------ as to the true course
of any anti wally
          community rumble
                 heres 
          at least the right tree to climb ----------------


“Unlike its female workforce,” 
  the women who shop at Wal-Mart 
                can’t be ignored,"
                    

"but so far  
 there is no  sign 
of a consumer rebellion 
on anything like 
the scale necessary 
to make the company 
revisit its employment policies. "
