SUPPLY CHAINS UNDER CAPITALISM
What does our supply-chain have to do with being human? Probably the same thing democracy has to do with our US Constitutional republic. Now would be a good time for We The People to recall humanity and democracy.
Authority functions better without either.

The supply-chain dust-up would be comical if it wasn’t so costly and irritating. So why aren’t we manufacturing in the USA rather than overseas?
https://www.facebook.com/billhuston/posts/10225049064390474 –People say the global logistics problem is manufactured because Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Klaus Schwab are evil. I say the problems with the global supply chain have been with us for a long time. We have had a FRAGILE system at the brink of collapse for 20 years. –end of facebook info–
Several thoughts–*The USA is functioning according to capitalism*Capitalism is about hierarchy, profits and control*Capitalism has been sold to the public over decades as providing the best lifestyle for the most people*In contrast communism has been sold to the US public as a system that results in rationing and an inability to find products of one’s choice*Globalism is a euphemism for imperialism as capitalism on a global scale allows for capitalistic exploitation outside of the control of any government*This system is euphemistically called free markets when another definition could be organized crime*Past trade agreements such as TPP include language that gives power to international corporations to violate human and environmental rights*Past Presidents have support “fast-tracking” TPP*The excuse of “spreading democracy around the world”: has been used by Presidents for foreign military actions to “protect American interests” which are precisely capitalistic hierarchical Establishment using the US military to enforce business practice without regulation against foreign local communities*State-run-corporate-owned MSM have over decades equated capitalism as democracy as “our system”*Capitalistic hierarchical Establishment propagandize that the private sector can do everything better than can the government*Big-business isn’t always healthy for local-community enterprise
Our Constitutional republic is about laws. But when money in politics due to Citizens United perverts the process and ALEC provides a forum for collaboration between lawmakers and big-money campaign donors is a FACT, while acknowledging the USA is not a democracy, the principles in the US Constitution that suggests democratic (small d considering if nothing else than the First Amendment) action by the public, is subverted within the system. What’s up with that?—https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2021/10/pandora-papers-reveal-offshore-finances-global-elite-currying-influence-in-us/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=pand-pprs%2F10%2F8%2F21&utm_source=CRP+Mail+List&utm_campaign=b810509985-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2021_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_9df8578d78-b810509985-210942037 –A trove of 11.9 million records released last week exposed the offshore financial secrets of hundreds of politicians, billionaires, celebrities, royal family members and other wealthy individuals in more than 200 countries and territories across the globe.The Pandora Papers records obtained by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists shine a light on how the world’s wealthy elite use offshore shell companies to avoid disclosing their assets, and the firms that help them do it. Many of the big names in the Pandora Papers have also sought to influence U.S. policy and public opinion in the U.S., an OpenSecrets analysis finds.–end of opensecrets info–
How is the First Amendment subverted by collaboration between legislators and big-money donors? One’s opinion imagines the lack of an actual Free Press in the USA and censorship of Free Speech when money is named as Free Speech and then used to censor diverse views from the actual public.
C-Span offered a platform for the public to voice views. A large portion of the conversation was about the make-up of the Supreme Court along with discussion about the US Constitution.
7:53AM–caller–paraphrase–We are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional republic
Another caller who said he was a Professor to teach concepts of the US Constitution mentioned that the First Amendment upheld rights. These rights in the First Amendment seem to suggest democracy. The definition of democracy seems to be an understandable way of presenting ideas.
First AmendmentCongress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Some people use the word democracy in place of First Amendment in discussion due to simplicity of conveying an idea when using First Amendment could leave too many people in the dark. It is vernacular.
When the US Constitution describes principles equitable to democracy, a phrase to convey principles about which one speaks is democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.
The US Constitution does not support capitalism necessarily, and yet capitalistic hierarchical Establishment along with state-run-corporate-owned MSM (not a Free Press) has consistently over a number of years equated capitalism with democracy. This is not a FACTual equation.
Yet capitalistic hierarchical Establishment continues to scold use of democracy while at the same time equating free markets with capitalism. Capitalism is hierarchical and predatory and free markets suppose fairness and equity, along with a full understanding of the transaction between all parties.
C-Span is helpful in interaction between different people, rather than the bought-and-paid-for soundbites from state-run-corporate-owned MSM.
A conversation about the differences between communism and capitalism could be informative, since Establishment attempts vilifying one while holding up the other as the model of excellence in governing.
Along with this capitalism/communism discussion could also be comparison to the US Constitution by a Constitutional Professor, perhaps 2 or 3 so-educated people.
Ralph Nader could be included in a C-Span discussion of the US Constitution. In FACT he is speaking about Free Press topics—–https://mailchi.mp/nader/reporters-alert-part-vi-swo113lh1k?e=cfd1bea9b5 –Reporters at major newspapers and magazines are hard to reach by telephone. Today it is increasingly hard to converse with them about timely scoops, leads, gaps in coverage, and corrections to published articles.We started an online webpage: Reporter’s Alert. From time to time, we use Reporter’s Alert to present suggestions for important reporting on topics that are either not covered or not covered thoroughly. Reporting that just nibbles on the periphery won’t attract much public attention or be noticed by decision-makers. Here is the sixth installment of suggestions:–end of nader info–
A good question is the state-owned news outlets infamous in communism and the state-run-corporate-owned MSM presumption to news reporting in capitalism.
A Free Press seems to be an implication for democracy.
