It Will Happen Here(The Midterm's Message)

"The new governor's ambition was to clean up the streets and protect them
from any further blots upon their honor; he talked about streets as if they
were people."

------------ Albert Cossery, The Jokers.



A spectre is haunting the land. It speaks with a dotardly tone and carries
a shoe black sculpted head of hair. Its specious truisms spread over the
land. "Shrink the government.""The Government must get out of the way
of the Entrepeneurial Spirit of America." etc. We are now suffering the
wages of Reagan's sins of debilitating labor value, increasing military
spending, deregulating corporate entities the successive four Presidents
have irresponsibly continued. The American people have masochistically
elected candidates who will not only continue the cronyism of Reagan but
go further and usher in the social inequalities of the 19th century.

The winners exclaim they will cut deficits and spending in a meaningful
way without touching the defense budget. They tacitly approve Dubya's
fiscal conservatism of cutting taxes while waging a global war on
terrorism.

They side with their funders, the Corporations. Expect to see a greater
income gap and over 15% unemployment as the new norm. Also expect
to see cuts in Social Security. Wall Street fraud will be celebrated.

Experts will say President Obama went too far to the left by signing
into law a Corporatist Healthcare Reform Bill and a toothless
Financial Reform Bill. On the contrary, Obama has invited reaction
by abandoning his base in moving to the right and encouraging a
catastrophic counter-reaction to go further in resistance.

In a few years a greater reaction will sweep away these Reagan epigones.
Immense damage will be done. A call for a strong leader will be heard. Americans
love uniforms. The United States will become an open Military Dictatorship.
As of now it is a soft and secretive Security Dictatorship. The Patriot Act and
Supreme Court rulings on Corporate Personhood, Speech and on disallowing
private discourse with groups deemed "terrorist organizations" have already
prepared the way. It will happen here very soon.
