DON'T ENCOURAGE ME.
(But, if you're up for it, I
have one final thought...)
Everyone can see
that, say, Apple benefits
if Apple users
think they're cool and smart.
(While actually being
dense to buy Apples...)
It seems clear to me
that on a large scale the same
demographic games
get played about jobs.
People unhappy about
corporatism
get played as commies,
and people who play along --
either as "solid"
employees or as
"hard driving" entrepreneurs --
get reinforcement,
just as Las Vegas
gives comps to make their losers
think they've gained something ...
Soon enough, people
cheering corporatism
can't even perceive
they are at odds with
democracy because their
emotions blind them...
