numb skullery

recently left at a nice folks site:

"energy independence
is the anti
trans nat imperialism of fools "

i was asked to explain

"i'm making
a fairly simple point:

dem pundit
carvelle notices uncle sam is
often in mischief
about the globe
where oil lies waiting to be pumped
and he see
more and more others see this too

so
carvelle thinks "maybe" its our hunting for
oil and such
with guns
explains our low earthly esteem

when
in fact
something far more general is the culprit

cross boardercorporate profit prospects


even if fortress amerika had all the energy we dreamed we needed
still our trans nat corporations would get around
to dragging in
our military

and we'd still have over seas power plays
galore

history does not lie
and it rarely plays tricks

while we were still exporting oil
we and our marines
were all over
the low rent districts of the planet creating havoc
and ....blow back "
