MIC Suicidal System

As I sell out to Capitalist stag-inflation economics, I find myself pondering existentialism.

I am stocking up on commercial consumer products to sell for some stagflation scrapings of net profit income. Hagglers tend to call it scalping, but to me it is retail value mark-ups that drive price increase. It is important for some venues or sellers to keep items for sale at high prices, relative to market averages; otherwise short-sellers will destroy any chance for Capitalist profits. The vulture aspects of carrion Capitalism are exhibited in our current Great Depression infestation of short-sellers. During depression stagflation the retail stock prices are not detached from retail store prices; so as with the Stock Market short-seller corruption, so goes our US economy.

It is almost like elites want the masses to short-sell themselves and commit suicide, because wars, plagues, and pollution are not killing us fast enough to control the population. It does not take a conspiracy theorist to know that less than 1% of the population control world governments, because it is known that billionaires are the real bosses, not politicians. It is popular to realize that workers need unions because of corporate bosses who dont care about them, and it is populist to vote and take action against any power considered to be “the establishment” or the corrupt bosses.

The Military Industrial Complex (MIC) does keep us locked into a suicidal system. We are encouraged by Ebay and Amazon to provide consumers with cheaper prices, so that we get less profits and the Borkian (Robert Bork – corporate shill) trickle-down oligarchs and plutocrats maintain power. It was corporate lawyers like Robert Bork who convinced the Supreme Court that monopolies are ok if they say they provide cheaper prices, and in fact they should defend mega-companies more than individuals.

Case in point, the MIC does not care that the suicide rate of US soldiers is like 20 suicides daily. Only when a soldier commits an extreme suicide publicly does the press even seem to care, sadly. All these unfortunate suicides are less about individual psychological depression, and more about existentialist philosophy and its ability to meditate on suicidal systems as social and cultural phenomena worth paying attention to, at least for sustainability studies.
