“The cow, the old cow, she is dead;
It sleeps well, the horned head:” *

Socialism, Capitalism, Communism.. these ideas are dead. They represent an antiquated view of political/economic structure in a world of strong central authorities. The value of these philosophies was immeasurable when making the transition from Monarchies to Republics, but that environment no longer exists. Now we are transitioning from Republics to something else. If we are to succeed we must give up our need for The Commanding Heights, and build a more accurate and efficient understanding of political/economic structures that reflect our current reality. To argue for one of these antiquated philosophies is to entirely miss the truth of our modern times. The increasingly privatized world is not what they say it is.

If the Amazon Corporation were a country, how would its political/economic structure be described? Democracy and Capitalism? Not even close. It's truth, like most large corporations, is closer to old Soviet-style communism.

Keynes, Hayek, Marx, Lenin,.. they are all dead. Let them sleep in peace. My next post will pipe an interesting tune… a more accurate and efficient way to understand the political/economic structure this world is moving towards… and how the old guard is trying to control it.
