The Angry Drunk

And here we go again; another round of tainted con­sum­ables. Read the story here in the NYT. When the fuck are we, as a nation, going to wake up to the fact that ram­pant unreg­u­lated glob­al­iza­tion is, in fact, a bad thing. It’s not enough that we ship our jobs over­seas; it’s not enough that we can’t build the weapons we need to defend this coun­try with­out parts from China; it’s not enough that China owns the vast major­ity of our sky-rocketing national debt. Maybe peo­ple will wake up when we start drop­ping dead in the fuck­ing streets from food and med­i­cines that have been adul­ter­ated with ran­dom indus­trial chem­i­cals in the name of shav­ing a few cents off of the man­u­fac­tur­ing costs. But hey, it will all be fine; now the Libertopians can tell us how the “Market” will solve this one.
