centralized oversight

[kelber at mindspring.com]

Very heartfelt.  I agree with all the sentiments.  Unfortunately, we're ultimately on the losing side of this.  Obama, Clinton, Romney, Gingrich et al have already been bought and belong to the same paymasters.  Only the brand names are different, or the roles played: good cop or bad cop - no election will change that.

>Who will THEY be who sit at the center of the "centralized oversight" of national economies in the "completely restructured " Europe now touted by Sarkozy, Merkel and, if money really is speech, by our Federal Reserve bank whose gracious, but for some reason secretive, largesse extends so generously to European banks? There is something surreal in the extreme about the continued speeches extolling the growth of democracy in the face of national insolvencies and a  bank junta by bankers who want to shift the blame and attention away from their own fraud, mismanagement  and personal gains and impose their clever " oversight" on entire nations .

>They say free markets, but if they are free, why are so many generals involved, so many jails, so much torture, so many bullets, disappearances, death squads, Tienamin squares, evictions, land grabs, murders, taxes, oil spills, Bhopals, drug addicts . I think freedom is more equivalent to justice than money, sustainability than profit. I believe markets marked by these underlying expressions of violence and greed are revealing that they are out of balance with justice, biospheric health and other principles that make life  beautiful for almost everyone.  Is it so hard to imagine; is it so contrary to human nature , so inconceivable as a possibility that the global human community could balance 
>human rights and democratic processes,  free markets, ecological sustainability and the abolition of warfare?  Or are we just an ant colony, a self-fouling fish tank in  a temporary swirl of energies in the pointless machinery of the universe?
