In my Riggs post "War bling and the inscrutability of motives" I am
providing evidence for a proposition , but I kinda leave the
proposition and the implications of the proposition, as they say
these days, off the table. The proposition is that Riggs is an agent
who fingers Wolfmann for a little "re-programming". It's all about
the dangers of reverse cash flow. The implication of the
proposition is that Wolfmann is a big enough player to represents
enough of a threat ( domino theory still on the table at this time)
if he actually starts some kind of reverse cash flow( in 70s we are
moving away from middle class wealth distribution) to draw powerful
attention from all directions. His abduction may represent a kind of
clean up action addressing the potential problem represented by the
popularity and near success of the movement expressed in the R.
Kennedy, George McCarthy ,Gene McCarthy campaigns, the anti-war
movement, the civil rights /black liberation movement . After all,
nothing represents reverse cash flow for "them" that have like
peace. I am not saying this is a work of literary allegory, but a
story that reflects allegorically the political and social issues of
the time. Reversing the cash flow is still the high heresy of all
movements for justice, and is still on the front pages in the health
care debate.
