Leviathan

Yeah, I can walk to everything I need in ten to fifteen minutes. The main boulevard most large boroughs is closed to cars and it’s a boon for local business as pedestrians actually stop in on random businesses where motorist do not, it has the added benefit of royally pissing off the car-brains from the cookie-cutter suburbs. Montreal needs to take bigger steps to expand its public transport and its winter culture as it acts like people don’t need a walkable city when it starts to snow, but it definitely beats every alternative in North America.

Fucking obviously, yes.

I agree, in the same way I think conservatism naturally evolves into fascism. For the sake of argument, I meant what they always say are the natural ruling forces of capitalism, supply-demand, competition, incentive and all the rest of that malarkey. They bail them out, not letting the natural forces of the free market decide their fate. They’re not doing what they say capitalism is, they’re doing what we’ve seen capitalism to be in reality.

I don’t know, maybe I’m not making sense, but I promise it makes sense in my mind.

Oh, good. Wouldn’t want the actual realities of capitalism to get in the way of late-stage capitalist monopolies refusing to innovate.

Mussolini called fascism the marriage of corporations and government, so what’s the fucking difference?

Just middle to upper management and real estate investors conspiring to justify their phoney-baloney jobs at the expense of the worker.
