Yes, the Elites can't stop themselves. Liquidating the middle-class and crushing the poor and having their Bushies lock everything down so the suckers have no chance even AFTER we realize the swindle, must be like pure heroin shot into the veins of an addict.
I mean, even if I sort of contemplate the situation of the Amerikan Aristocracy, even as the whole thing is going down in flames, slow-motion (perhaps as slow-motion as 30 years -- if the Bushies can somehow finish transitioning us to tyranny while keeping the nation still running -- we could become like the Romans and our tyranny last HUNDREDS of years before our the descendants of our victims come back seeking their pound of flesh), just THINKING about the situation of the Bushie Rich in this country and PRETENDING that I am one, sends a massive and immediate rush of pleasure hormones to my brain.
I mean, think about it. As a Bushie Rich Person, it's back to 1400 AD for you, but WITH antibiotics and enough surveillance equipment along electric fencing to make sure the peasants stay in line.
Think about it:
Wealth Maldistribution is at a recent high, and may well rival some medieval kingdoms (the poor were poorer, but the Bushies were also poorer during the Dark Ages...so everything is relative)
Laws are becoming MUCH easier for the Bushie Rich to break, even shamelessly in broad daylight. Oh, the protection is still far from 100%. Bushie Criminals still take the same risks ordinary criminals do. But as all Law Enforcement becomes as Bushie-Criminalized as the DOJ, this risk fades every day.
What chance a "friendly Bushie" will tank the investigation and frame a patsy for you, like they did for the REAL Bushie Anthrax Mailer when they covered up for him and framed the corpse Ivins? Probably still small, but growing every day the Bushies cement their control over our agencies.
Need I say that ALL of these aspects increase proportionally the closer an aristocrat is to the Bushie Inner Circle? Democratic Aristocrats, get the nonviolent version of the "Jews in Nazi Germany" treatment. As in:
We can steal TRILLIONS and walk away scot-free, but you'd better not get caught doing what millions of men (and women, for that matter) do every day, rent a hooker/gigilo...or you're ruined like Spitzer. Better not cheat on your wife, like Vitter and his diapering hookers, or you're ruined, like Edwards.
Meanwhile, exposed Diaper Fetishists using hookers, such as David Vitter, or closeted gay Bushies passing squares of toilet paper under stalls get to keep on as if nothing happened. BOTH will probably return to the Imperial Senate. And you can stick Idaho's homophobia where Larry Craig likes it, because BUSHIE CULT FOLLOWERS DO WHAT THEY'RE TOLD .
80% chance Craig returns to the Senate.
Anyway, back on topic. What a rush to be a Bushie Aristocrat these days! Better maybe since 1920. Soon, unless we can turn this thing around, it will be better than in the 1400s for Bushies (our descendants get the peasant's end of the medevial stick in exchange).
Within just a couple more decades, I prophecy, Bushies will easily and frequently get away with everything up to and including murder (I am speaking of the Abramoffs and the Neys here...one day even THEY won't go to jail...if these trends remain unreversed), and some RW Bushie Death-Sqauds will most-likely be active, murdering liberals and gays and other Troublesome Upstarts.
Not too many, though. As Rove knows, too many liberals wind up dead for no good reason and even the Amerikan Subject Populace might start asking questions. So look for Rovian "kinder, gentler" Nazi-like twists with plenty of Plausible Deniability built in to confuse the suckers.
What a rush of power! (shivers) No wonder they can't stop. Like the old song says EVeRYboDY wants to rule the world.
No wonder they can't stop, even if they KNEW as we do, what it's leading to.
The same way a heroin addict will ultimately kill themsleves with the drug, even if they still retain enough sense to watch it and know what thge outcome is to be.
