Using another blogger's post about the ongoing real recession--not the fake recovery as advertised on TV--Bernhard points to some of the major contradictions of current capitalist policies that attempt to solve the ongoing economic crisis as well as what we can expect as likely solutions coming from our masters in capitalist ruling classes. The first one is highly unlikely, and the other one is too dreadful for ordinary people to contemplate. The only real solution, revolution, can only be implemented by a conscious Ninety-Nine Percent, and that doesn't look very promising right now.
The signs of the Empire's hyper-militaristic policies are everywhere. Just follow Stop NATO…Opposition to global militarism for a week and this will become very evident. I really don't think that our masters in our ruling class are so stupid as to think that they can intimidate the rulers of Russia and China with all these military threats. And given that the Russia-China alliance is very likely only to grow stronger, why not strike now? This I think likely characterizes the insane outlook of our Empire masters.
