The Triumph Of Economic Globalization Has Inspired

This Same Economic System, Based On Short-term Growth And Endless Profits Is Also The Reason For Pretty Much Everything Else That Is Lousy In Our Society, From Private Prisons To Fox News. What I'm Arguing Is That, In Fact, What We've Been Told Is A Lie.

Trump Walked Into A Media Setting For Which He Was Far Better Suited Than The Other Contenders Because He Actually Knows How To Do Reality Tv And Made Them All Look Like Pretenders. And I Would Argue That Our News Media Has Only Gotten Worse Since Trump Got In Office. Trump Is Media Crack. The Ratings Have Never Been Higher. The Reason Cnn Would Run An Hour Of An Empty Podium Waiting For Him To Show Up During The Campaign Is Because They Were Terrified If They Turned Away From Trump Their Rating Would Go Down.

Trump's Act Of Construction Is Not Building A Building. It Is Building The Meaning Of The Name "trump." Because His Revenue Really Comes From Selling His Name To People Who Do Actually Build Things. They Pay Enormous Sums Of Money For The Supposed Privilege Of Being Associated With The Name Trump Or The Name Ivanka, Because Of That Image Construction. That's Why It Seemed Like A Good Idea For Trump To Run For President In The First Place.

Either Greed Belongs In A War Zone, Or It Doesn't. You Can't Unleash It In The Name Of Sparking An Economic Boom And Then Be Shocked When Halliburton Overcharges For Everything From Towels To Gas, When Parsons' Sub, Sub, Sub-contractor Builds A Police Academy Where The Pipes Drip Raw Sewage On The Heads Of Army Cadets And Where Blackwater Investigates Itself And Finds It Acted Honorably. That's Just Corporations Doing What They Do And Iraq Is A Privatized War Zone So That's What You Get. Build A Frontier, You Get Cowboys And Robber Barons.

Why Would We Build As Unequal A Renewable Energy Sector As We Have Built A Fossil Fuel Sector? The Nice Thing About Renewables Is They're Everywhere, So You Don't Have To Have Monopoly Control In The Same Way.
