"I went with that shit, that shit got wasted" - Daleyz

Shit YO! WE AINT FUCKING AROUND ROUND HERE. WE STEPS AHEAD OF THE GAME YO.
Point 1:

hung ho-fung: AMERICA’S HEAD SERVANT?

http://www.newleftreview.org/?page=article&view=2809

Yeah its the new left review. Are you going to get any better information than this aNyWhErE>? No. That is fact. With all the hyphy about China's stimulus (woooo High speed rail woaaah those chinese are amazing wooooow) how much do we actually know, as usual- little (or a lot incoherently). China have helped the US dig themselves into a huge hole fully realizing that they are strung on to us and that we both are going down the tubes. They have taken on an elitist short-sighted (!american!) easy route methodology of doing business, not developing their domestic consumption by keeping wages low, ignoring the rural areas so there are unlimited workers, and shipping off all their junk to america leaving them at the mercy of markets trends in the US. What is especially important in this article is contrasting this with the development model struck by Japan, Korea, and Taiwan (before the almighty tide of neo-liberalism), who were able to raise the incomes of their rural populations and generate more self sufficient economies (which was all undone by the rise of China, WAT) What this article makes clear is that there is definitely a power base on the southern coasts who have made a lot of money with this model, in league with american elites, and will try at all costs to keep this model, as you can see by how the stimulus is being spent (on more fixed assets and capital goods, not in developing the rural consumer base). The world needs china to become a serious market and america to ease up on its debt to sort out its problems. Until more disaster falls, it aint happening soon. Good Article Mr Hung Fung

Point 2: The naively rejected potency of religious thought in western political thinking.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh that we actually believed people in power, while the may be dumb, were at least rational. Please lets kill this once and for all and recognize that there is irrational superstitious doctrine inherent in all of man's cultures, it is organized, and it has shaped world events. And we in the west are not immune (ie not just rednecks in appalachia)
a) bible quotes in his daily iraq briefings....good and evil speeches...and now news of a call to jaques chirac in 2003 asking for his help in iraq to fight off Gog and Magog!?!?!? Kidding me???? The one and only....http://www.thespec.com/article/572824

b)zionism found acceptable by western political leaders (ie prime minister during balfour decree) due to evangelical beliefs in the need for Jews to be in israel for the end times to occur. They are progressing their perspective myth-reality! Lynny wat did i tell you about hyperstition, fictions that through their inherent power and ppl's beliefs in them force themselves real (plus the fact that there is no authority on the matter, anybody can become an authority on the matter and interpret for himself). Damn!

c) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Family_(Christian_political_organization)

the great legends themselves, power and religion in >sycophantic< style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">(((O))) remake (reinterpret the text against) your blasphemous elders!

Point 3: If you are really feeling serious today read this duder Gopal (we citing a china man and an indian man.....damn sickness) balakrishnan
SPECULATIONS ON THE ?STATIONARY STATE

This may be the most worthwhile article. If the first one was more practical international relations, this is more theoretical- on the future of capitalism ie the comedown. Some badass band has to name themselves the The Stationary State QUICK.
