Man-Made

 Hurricanes, Tornados, Tsunamis, Flash Floods, Blizzards, horrible events! All five of them, however, are Natural occurrences, all of them unavoidable, no matter what preparations may be made, most of them can be deadly and destructive. None of them MAN-MADE!

 

Inflation, Recession, Depression, horrible events! All three of them, however, are Not Natural occurrences, all of them AVOIDABLE, and all of them MAN-MADE!

 

Who wins and who loses in Natural events, most likely even some wealthy folks get caught in drowning, houses torn apart by wind-swept currents! Who wins and who loses in Man-Made events, usually the poor, the have-nots, the common man or woman! Capitalism was invented by people! Capitalism may benefit many, but when it goes array it usually affects anyone who is not rich, who has never benefited from the Reagan Era Bull shit known as Trickle Down Economics. Money whatever color the currency is printed is not a Natural Resource, it is also MAN-MADE. A false Prophet, a Carrot and Stick, a Shell Game, a ploy to make ALL of us think that satisfaction is NOT based on clean air, plentiful water, oceans, rivers, mountains, or valleys, just Profit.

 

So now, ONCE AGAIN, (and yes MAGA-Minions) history repeats itself and lessons never learned must still be learned, the mere mortal (nowadays that includes anyone who pays their fair in taxes and can only count up from zero to maybe $100,000 in their bank accounts) fall prey to the idea that ONLY CAPITALISM can save the day. Capitalism may be brighter than most MAN_MADE economic principles but remember that Capitalism spawns greed and gluttony. If man invented THEORIES of ECONOMICS and they do BAD things, I have to wonder why can’t man re-invent ECONOMIC THEORIES to do good things.

 

And saddest of all for this nation is the knee-jerk reaction of IMMEDICACY. So as the Midterm Elections begin to inundate us, way too many will want to trade the SURVIVAL of our Democracy for less expensive Gasoline and Food Prices; somehow thinking DEMOCRACY will live on if they vote for the lies and falsehoods of the REPUBLICANS!
