Guest post: Fuck you, Wall Street.
Greed is selfishness. Greed doesn’t give a flying fuck about what happens to this country so long as the capitalists and corporatists can turn a profit. No private company has done anything for society where the underlying motive was not for the profit of the company first. Greed did not put a man on the moon. Greed did not give us the Internet. Capitalism and greed, in their purest forms, are sociopathic. They are a psychological disease of self-centrism and egotism. “More and more for me, me, me” and fuck the consequences.
Boldfaced emphasis added by me.
I’ll also add that greed didn’t give us science.
Scientist: “I’ve discovered this!”
Fat Capitalist Bastard: “So what? What good is that?”
Capitalist Toady Weasel: “Ooh! We can make money with that!”
Fat Capitalist Bastard: “So you stupid eggheads have a use after all!”
That’s how it goes.
If every crooked banker, every greed-driven trader, every sociopathic money-grubbing shit in this nation were strung up or shot to death, you know what would happen?
Life would go on!
And it’d be better.

Psychics have been known to be employed by Wall Street.
Life WOULD be better. I feel a song coming on…
