The mutterings of a economic soul continues

We live in a time when there are many fact finders who report their findings but ignore the real world of the streets do not match up with what they report. The time has come to get real and sort out the news in a vast sea of communications that fits the way people are really living out their lives in a global economic arena.
We wake up in the mornings and everything we put on or consume at the breakfast table mean someone else in the world or even across the street from us where we live has to suffer for it. Globalization and free trade has hidden the pain from our eyes while most say it is only human nature to shop for the cheapest price. Behind every buy is some other person losing something in the process.
We watch our pro sports and we see millionaires wearing symbols like the NIKE emblem making even more money promoting products made by impoverished classes of the world. Nothing is mentioned about this game of life with many losing out most of the time. Locally, we shop our own way out of our jobs and the jobs of our neighbors with every buy we make. This was a problem in the past but never to the extent that it is today. This is because the strive of others is hidden away in some far away place where the wage slaves, underclass and even children make the things we use and consume.
This is happening while polticians say Let's Make a Deal. Governments consist of brokers and dealers in the global economic arena. Now we have Conservatives who played the funny money monopoly games in the free trade world calling out for fiscal restraints. I have yet to hear them include the trade deficit in their discussion of of the horrendous lost this cost so many in the real world of the streets where people live out their lives. The fiscal conservatives ignore what caused our economic crisis. Now they want to force cuts due to all the losses of values due to free trade. The value of workers and labor which was really the most stable value in any economy has been degraded. Reportedly, the value of labor has hit the lowest bottom in fifty years. Millions of workers now need government and private assistance to survive and the fiscal conservative want to cut more and tell us that the entitlements need to be cut too.
President Obama, a liberal, took over and bailed out big money interests, banks and large corporations and married big government to big money while ignoring the suffering of workers and small businesses who took the hit. This is out of character for them but only a few of them admit it.
Both sides keep playing their funny monopoly games in the global economic arena while they pretend to be concerned about value of things. The game is controlled by international money changers who hide from the causes of our economic crisis. In the real world, many are living in a silent depression. The bail outs and stimulus packages have turned into devious devices that take tariffs off products and put them on workers and future generations. Workers are now commodities who are traded on a global block to compete with one another for the same jobs with the jobs going to the cheapest labor markets of the world.
Elite groupings in both parties live off all this suffering after being bailed out themselves. They just keep saying Let's Make a Deal while the suffering continues as we wait for the next big economic bubble to burst. All the talk about fiscal responsibilty ends as just hot air in one of the economic baloons.
