Tapsearch Com EditorTea Party may be brewing the wrong tea
Are the Tea Parties brewing the right tea - Are they ignoring the main causes and effects of our economic crisis?
The so called free market has to be scoped too.
Alan Greenspan followed Ayn Rand and in his book The Age of Turbulence,
he makes a point to tell us about the failure of the New Harmony workers
community and calls utopian attempts not really consistent with human
nature . He seems to conclude that human nature is flawed and only the
free market place can deal with a flawed human nature the right way. Peter Maurin,
co-founder of the Catholics Workers said if people like Greenspan are right we need
more policemen than priests. And the biblical saying of do unto others as you would
have them do you is not practical.
I have also paid close attention to Ron Paul and when he talks, he sounds
like he is right on about the real world but I do not understand how he
connects his conclusions in a survival of the fittest patterns. Anyone
who has been in the business world, knows there must be umpires and
referees just like there are in sports for the game to be played according to
hoyle. Otherwise, the business world is based on an anything goes basis.
And our economies based on making money on money instead of making things
has burned out.
I also have a difficult time with free-traders who use the theories of
Adam Smith to defend their positions. First of all Adam Smith came at a
time before the industrial revolution and was talking about merchants
and marketplaces and not about a global economy based on moving production
from place to place for the sake of cheaper labor. But, most
importantly, Adam Smith held labor and workers as something sacred and
as the core of society. It is obvious that this is not the case in our
times.
The Tea Parties have a long way to go. We already have the
Constitution Party which has hit the target for the common good and the
proper connection with human nature for many years now. And I do not
see any Tea Party movement mentioning this fact.
It comes down to this question : Who said we had to compete with each
other for the same jobs in a global economic arena ? We been at since
1992 and online since 1998 and our Tapsearch Com sites have about
200,000 references and results on Google etc. Our most popular topical
artwork has millions related to its title - Clinton Years American Dream
Reversed. See Clinton art and story behind it. pass on
Real World News with questions to ask our political
leaders, educators and news outlets. ( see free email service to send
message to all. )
