so,
I had (just) a few reactions to my previous ..article/entry.
And decided that it is best to clarify my early spontaneous speech.
I am not for the workers as proletariat, as the class, as known by the recent 100 and a bit years history. Because I do not speak for the lower social class, I speak about the employees. Most of them, regardless of class, middle or low, because indeed in the upper class are the employers. And I am not worked up by some hate. It is just the fact I want to see the facts, the way that society works today. Maybe even this sounds to pretentious, I just see what I see and say it.
I got a link from a friend, http://www.criticatac.ro/ , that is the link not the friend, as a reaction , donno for sure if she thinks the material there it is (about) similar thoughts. But it is not. I read some articles, they are in romanian but does not matter because: what I noticed is that the (young or very young) smart people there are to much of a theoretic/theoretical type (sorry if is not maybe the best English phrasing here, I just had to choose a language that my friends here understand and except romanian I know other not -I sound like Yoda probably). So I was saying that the enthusiastic young minds there on this website they are not to close to reality, in my opinion. Even the language is so pretentious, really. It did remind me of some ex-colleagues from faculty, philosophy, smart and ready to speak, one even was amazed about other guy that tried to speak only in ...essays, I mean wtf is the simple and concise language not good enough for philosophy or proper to channel the thoughts from one to another? I mean is not like he tried to put that on paper as a way to understand the metaphysics, no, was just a training for him to speak like that for some purpose I do not know. Anyway I really did try always to speak simple and logically when meant to communicate, I have my share of tries on lyrics and writing where yes I used also some more of elaborate language, or I think I did :)
But I can follow a more "sophisticated" speech although not to much used to... And when I did this effort for an article there and saw no clear conclusion and no fucking purpose for that article, or at least no other than to have a smart looking one and to throw some ideas from the books about connected ideologies...
I did not read to much about this, before, Marx and after, I know I should, actually it is interesting, even from a historic point of view, but i saw the other articles talking about different ideas that really are only that, ideas with no connection with reality. I know I should say which article and what ideas but they are to many, I donno if somebody cares to go there and confirm or not what I say but I really hope he/you can see that after a few read articles.
Anyway what started to take form in my head was said by another friend: like this many ideologies started, by enthusiastic students that spent time reading and talking and had no real connection with the real world, and I also mean the real logical world of ideas. They sit at different desks, at school, work, at home, and read and write. Hmm.
I know many great thinkers did the same, Kant for example, famous example.
But he had the experience , at least the one extracted from the books all this time before writing. How come in the last century masses were moved by ideas that come from youngsters brains? Strange and dangerous as was seen.
And because I was talking about Yoda and Kant, I found recently that the Jedi order do follows the categorical imperative. I mean they in the first defense of the galaxy imperative they also never use a human as a mean to obtain something but au contrair, they see the human being in its essence as a soul to protect and treasure. Or something.
But this is the biggest problem of today, nobody is following the moral categorical imperative, people are used and seen as merchandise or means to obtain it or handle it.
I am not the most moral person I know but do shiver with outrage and indignation when see the sort of things happening everywhere, from Haiti to Japan to u.s. or my country, people been treated like sheep or things.

Ok,
I will say it with my own simple words, it may sound a bit ridiculous compared with what there is usually a speech held by any economist.
It is that today we got the explanation about why we cannot live a very good life, I mean
because of the crisis, now version 2.1.
And, like we would read a history book we get this logically explained so we can see that it had to happen because of that and the other. Specifically the first crisis because of all the stupid made loans and investments. And also the way governments try to ... help after.
Now, in the second tier of it, just because it fallow people/companies are afraid to invest.
so what they want us to believe is that this time we must be afraid and careful and basically to not except to be able to live the very best life , although is the only one we have, because all this crap. In other words the economy is like that now and bummer we have to sacrifice and hold on. All these fuckers that were and are paid in sums that looks like yearly wage, all these economists, lobbyists that helped the ruling party to take good and viable economical decisions did shit. My problem is like this: I first care about me and my family, maybe like everybody else. Ok, now, I want to have a decent life, doing what I like. Well it seems is not quite possible, could be, because my chosen occupation does not generate enough income to feed my family. Or it could, depends on the luck. So you, and me, must take a job that you might not like but is well paid. Well that seems to not suffice lately also, cause interest is high and you, a fool that you are, got a house and a car and a dog. So now you got this and work something you do not like, even that you might loose as you can see the company fires more and more people, the times are hard. You are stressed, well that is the normality you can see, that you cannot pay and might loose all this shit. If before you thought that yeah you work shyte but you have your family happy and you can still in the little free time you got practice your hobbies now you do not feel you can enjoy it. But you see people that lost their jobs and got crazy. You do not want ending up with a shotgun sweeping the floor of your company of your colleagues, well ex-colleagues, well ex-everything anyway. Joking "" aside, the fact is that the situation is bad in many countries. And strange is that people think it had to happen because of this factors and it sums up. No way. It is bulshit. If some time ago at least the idea that what comes first is human dignity and the right to a decent life now it comes down from economical conditions to us, going through what ever this year is thought as more important by some coalitions. Having a decent life, with a (safe) place for you and your family and doing something that makes you feel good (you like it and feel it fulfils you) without stupid stress is just a dream now. You have to work all day to pay and pay and maybe you can have a holiday to, I mean if you do not go in a holiday you cannot perform for long.
Buenaventura Durruti says: "No government fights fascism to destroy it. When the bourgeoisie sees that power is slipping out of its hands, it brings up fascism to hold onto their privileges." What has to do with what I say? Well I think the fascists type of economy is very useful to maintain this wage slavery. A fascist economy favored corporatism and class collaboration, believing that the existence of inequality and separate social classes was beneficial. Profit is private and individual. Loss is public and social. I see that is happening in many countries in times of crisis. I actually see it as a wanted result and is as if the crises is a blessing for some governments. I mean the people suffer, the taxes are higher but somehow some corporations are stronger than ever. the only difference is that not all the industry goes to support the state, or maybe I do not see it.
We are all used to think that it is normal to work and get paid to be able to live, no matter if some of our rights are not quite respected, some natural rights. I mean do you think that working half of the time you do now would fuck the economy up? lol But it would be dangerous ... for some, to much time for yourself leaves you to do something not to be so ignorant, like reading, although nowadays you have access to all the tv shows and games so you do not need to read to feel good. After 8 or let say 12 hours spend at work and traveling you are so tired you do not feel like spending the little amount of time you have until you go to sleep on reading, is going to tire you more, specially if is something else than an easy soap like book or paper. what i say is that much less working time would be enough for producing whatever and would let you cultivate your mind and really enjoy life.
I use to think the way out of this modern slave regime would be what the anarchists think of: either be an outcast and outlaw even or go on the ways of socialism. I now think both are no good, second simply because it cannot happen, it is my personal opinion, after been a bit into the communism shit and actually because Ii think people are greedy for power..., and first because I just do not see it happened for long ;), one man in a regime, against one regime... now way. The only way is for you and me to do something, and maybe others will join and this will grow. Let see.
