It's like what the little bird said, who was found in the middle of the road on his back with his feet up in the air, having been told that the sky would fall:

"One does what one can."

Yes, nicely put. Feels a lot like that somedays, doesn't it?

You have to wonder what these so-called economic experts were thinking. The gutting of the working class, aka the people who were supposed to do all of the consuming, was part and parcel of the globalists wet dream. Now that it's all gone kaput, even these bozos have finally figured out that, gee, with the few enriched beyond any reasonable measure and the masses without good jobs and decent pay, the masses can't buy anything.

The game these clowns have been playing is like the game of Monopoly: The end result of one player bankrupting everyone else means the game is over.

They were thinking about how rich they were getting and avoided thinking about anything else.

The gutting of the working class ...

Not relevant to the pathological egoist because everybody is a stranger and never considered as persons.

The average person empathizes with a number of familiar individuals but not with people generally: normal empathy has its limits. Social empathy has become particularly limited as society conditions people to be narcissists thinking only of themselves, and never of others.

Narcissism is a personal pathology with social consequences, and the rich have invested a great deal of resources into making selfishness socially acceptable.

Even as we speak, people on Wall St. figure the coast is clear and are starting up the game again.

It's what they do, and nobody has told them to do otherwise. For them, there have been no real consequences. There have been no significant structural changes because the greedy like the game as it is. They are not responsible for anybody else and they don't want to be made to feel that they are. It's the tragedy of the commons: if everybody is doing it, no one person can be blamed for it. If everybody is responsible, nobody will be.

People take a great deal for granted and assume the situation will never get all that bad. If it's that important, somebody else will take care of it. Then they're shocked when everything falls apart. They never believed it could happen because they didn't want to believe it could happen.

Larger failures and larger tragedies are coming, and many people don't want to believe those could happen either.

You guys are expressing - better than I could on my best day -exactly my thoughts.
