My personal private record includes never being cheated by a stranger; rather friends, neighbors, and associates. Hopefully my pilgrim’s experiences contribute to security in your life.
Greatest threats to America’s Constitution, sovereignty, and security are not known threats like Islamic Fascism, narco terrorists, illegal immigrants, or Democrat Party Socialism, rather “closet” unethical capitalism.
Never forget, it was Republican Party elected leadership that opposed the Anti War Profiteering Act for Iraq War. Why, possibly because elected Republicans did not want to see contributors prosecuted for stealing American tax payers blind during Iraq War.
Back to unethical capitalism, buyer beware is a concept that seems to justify capitalism based on stealing. Your author is not suggesting citizens should not know how to be good consumers or make wise deals, rather that starting a system based on stealing violates spirit of Ten Commandments.
It is a myth that capitalism and socialism are chronic enemies. The statement applies to ethical not unethical capitalism. The truth is that unethical capitalism and socialism are often ideologically related.
Consider the issue of public health insurance, and how private business and socialists are both beneficiaries. Private business executives stand to make increased profits when they transfer employee health care cost to public tax payers though government programs. American citizens need to recognize that unethical capitalists have no problem becoming corporate feudalists allied with socialists if they can increase profits – remember Enron?
What will follow are personal based experiences of unethical capitalists; perhaps it might be entertaining for the reader create a separate list of personal experiences they have had with unethical capitalists.
The following includes activities by friends, neighbors, and associates:
- negligent death of mother to acquire profits from unnecessary flu shot
- holding father’s death certificate hostage until hospital bill paid
- fifty year neighbor requiring twenty thousand dollar collateral and one hundred percent interest on four hundred dollar loan
- some car washes seem toxic work sites only hiring retired people with pre-existing medical conditions who are unable to seek civil relief from hazardous working conditions
- replacing American citizen workers and paying illegal wages to illegal immigrants for agriculture, landscaping, metal fabrication, and construction jobs
- real estate brokers who misrepresent closing date, amount of down payment, amount of interest, fail to make scheduled payment on time, and safety of property in neighborhood to potential buyers
- ranchers injecting life stock especially quarter horses with drugs to increase performance capability which enhances sales value
- friends taking a cut or stealing retirement or disability benefits, this is becoming more common as American age
Enough of my list I am sure readers can create their own list with different examples.
I must add one more example of organized unethical capitalism represent a real estate partnership of two people surrounded by those along for the ride so long as they received a small share of unethical profits.
The following activities observed:
- evicting Hispanic families, ok to pay them illegal wages just did not want them living in neighborhood
- trying to evict white working families with children
- making living conditions difficult for parent with child serving in Afghanistan
- tolerating Hispanics operating power tools while intoxicated on cocaine to “make up for their cultural stresses”
- making retired people with aging problems leave, onset of their dementia is so depressing
- tolerating theft by gang members who “paid rent on time” to steal from blue collar workers
- building unsafe buildings with appealing cosmetic appearances to make selling property easier
- removing fifty year old trees at their trunks were two inches across property line
- not honoring employment contracts with American citizens to use cheaper labor
- condescending treatment of middle class citizens
Could continue but I will allow reader to again develop their own list based on real world experiences. As most Islamic
people do not denounce Islamic terrorists, most so called American traditionalists do not denounce unethical capitalists.
Choosing a winner is easy when the race is over. Future historian will record that people who denounced unethical
capitalism before it was popular too, were either nuts or citizens of integrity.
Will make my next entry more about writing entertaining fiction as opposed to future history based on current events.
