Reflections
from the Ahnishinahbæótjibway (We, the People)
|
Attorney
General nominee Zoe Baird withdrew from the Cabinet confirmation
process last
week, because she did not have the support of the Good Ol’ Boy network. Zoe Baird was a victim of the disparity
between rhetoric and reality: the point of Capitalist Democracy, and
its blood
brother Communist Democracy, has always been to “make money.” By paying her employees as little as she
could get away with (just like “everybody else”), Zoe Baird was
following the
unwritten laws, “playing by the rules” of the Good Ol’ Boy élite. “Cheap labor” is the Eleventh Commandment of
St. Avarice. Zoe was targeted, not
because of her minor infractions, but because her Senatorial
inquisitors felt
insecure about what they themselves have done under Capitalist
money-making
values, and did not trust her to adhere to their code of “honor among
thieves.”
Capitalism
is always a parasitic relationship with other people: it has left its
mother
country and is in other peoples’ homeland, doing what this dogma of the
élite
does best: stealing, enslaving, and raising havoc with other peoples’
land. The Colonial English term for
this is “Making Money,” although what it is really doing is destroying
ecological infrastructure which is not theirs, plundering the future. The ethics of the other political appointees
are even murkier than Zoe Baird’s—but the Senate confirmed them because
they
fit within the boundaries of “business as usual.” The
way that Capitalism (and Socialism and Communism) have always
worked, is that if the Ol’ Boys can’t con other people out of their
resources,
they set themselves up as the “legitimate government” and pass laws, or
else
they use violence including going to war to steal them (and then they
sign a
“peace treaty,” which is more violent yet).
Capitalism is a foreign ideology on this land, one which has
been
developing during thousands of years of violence and theft and
wars/peace under
Indo-European dominion.
Nominee
Zoe Baird was eased out of the picture using the excuse that her
husband hired
“undocumented workers,” referred to in the mass media as “illegal
aliens”
rather than “immigrants.” According to
the newspapers, her barrister husband hired servants, nannies and
domestic
workers at a licensed employment agency.
Where did this employment agency get these “illegal aliens,” and
how did
they get through the immigration barriers to Connecticut (which is
quite a few
border crossings from Peru)? Since the
European immigrants first got here, they have been using their alien
European
immigration laws on this continent to entrench their foreign European
Capitalist class system. The U.S.
offices of Immigration and Border Patrol have been using various kinds
of
prohibition as “social engineering” for a long time.
The way that the immigration laws are presently enforced, there
is a “Green Card” stigma attached to the people they call “aliens.” (From the Anishinabe Ojibway perspective:
all you other descendants of illegal aliens, including the
Chippewas—where is your
“Green Card?”)
Immigration
laws promote the importation and exploitation of “illegal aliens” at
wages
which are much cheaper than the “minimum” slave-labor wage. Prohibition sounds good, particularly when
applied to drugs which are intentionally used by the élite to
destroy
individuals, family values and entire communities [and “make money” in
the
process]. What “prohibition”
accomplishes is keeping illicit drug prices high, the profits in the
hands of a
few selected special interests, and wages exploitatively low. This transplanted European
Capitalist/Communist scheme of indirect slavery is one of the
fundamentals of
colonialism. Alcohol on Indian
Reservations, opium in China ... Indo-European history is filled with
violent
precedents. What the Honorable Senators
say they are “trying” to do, and what they know they are doing, are two
entirely different things.
Part
of the ruckus was that Zoe Baird did not initially pay “Social
Security” for
the people she was allegedly hiring illegally, although she later paid
a lump-sum
“settlement.” The people that she made
the “Social Security” payoff to, should have also been sitting in the
box in
the Senate Hearing chamber, because the Peruvian couple will never see
a penny
of the about $2,900.00 “Social Security” which was paid under their
names, and
the bureaucrat who took Zoe Baird’s check knew that.
The U.S. Treasury collecting money on illegal transactions
becomes an “accessory after the fact,” just like Iraq-gate. A former union leader was sent to prison,
convicted of stealing from the Teamster’s Pension Fund.
What about the Social Insecurity Pension
Fund?
From
the Anishinabe Ojibway perspective, the question of foreign
Euro-Americans
hiring Peruvians, and then being criticized for their employees being
“illegal
aliens,” does not address who this Peruvian couple was.
The chances are very good that the Peruvian
couple that Zoe Baird hired have a lot of Aboriginal Indigenous
ancestry from
these Continents. The irony is that
descendants of illegal immigrants: Senators, were questioning another
descendant of illegal immigrants: Zoe Baird, about “hiring aliens.” Neither the Anishinabe Ojibway, nor any
other Aboriginal Indigenous people, asked the immigrant Europeans, nor
their
fake “Indians” nor slaves, to come here.
We also did not ask you to bring your excess social garbage and
your
European criminal problems to these shores.
RED INK: Sunday’s Minneapolis Star Tribune
reports the
“budget deficit” this year as “a record $327 billion.”
In response to a phone call about this
figure, one of the Star reporters said that this was the red ink
accumulated
under some fiscal definition of “this year,” and that the actual debt
was
“somewhere between four and five trillion dollars.”
Nobody can run a business, nor their own personal affairs, like
that. What kind of role model is the
U.S. Government, when they can’t balance their checkbook?
If you or I wrote rubber checks, “give or
take a trillion dollars,” (that’s $1,000,000,000,000.00) we’d be
practically
immortal in the Federal Pen. Even
presumably well-educated Euro-Americans are amazingly vague about how
much
their future is in hock for, and about where their taxes are going. Under Democratic hierarchial thinking,
people are numb to their own victimization, because the Great White
Father is
supposed to have promised, “I’ll take care of you, my children.” Most people haven’t thought through what
this kind of patronizing relationship does (the Great White Father has
done
nothing but steal from me, from all Anishinabe Ojibway).
Most Euro-Americans don’t seem to know
what’s real, and apparently they’ve never learned how to think for
themselves,
because “Father Knows Best.”
Paternalism is their system. Instead
of wasting time grilling Zoe Baird about “illegal aliens,” and
quibbling about
how to put more Sin-taxes on Joe Sixpack so the Honorable Senators can
fund
their pet projects and pay off their political hacks—why isn’t somebody
absolutely raising the roof about selling this country out from under
the
[immigrant] American people?
The
numbers are so big that people apparently don’t think about them very
clearly. The “mortgage” [dollars debt
per acre] on the stolen Aboriginal Indigenous peoples’ land which the
U.S.
claims as “public lands,” is, right now, more than its market value. In plain English, when a person’s debts are
more than their assets, this is called “bankrupt.”
I can laugh at it, because the land never belonged to the
immigrant people who call themselves the United States anyway. Neither the alien people who created the
“deficit,” nor the alien people to whom the “deficit is owed” have any
claim
whatsoever on Anishinabe Ojibway, nor any other Aboriginal Indigenous
Peoples’
property. The Russians are on their own
land ... the Japanese are on their own land ... but you who call
yourselves
“Americans” and “Canadians” are not on your own land.
You have been duped. When
the really big bills start coming due, over just the next few years,
you will
find out that you, and your children, and your grandchildren ... are
back to
being indentured slaves of the Nation-State, and that you were never
“free.” The Circle goes around.
OLD WORN-OUT TAX INCENTIVES: The first thing that the
politicians do when they get elected is ask for the public checkbook. The “Good Ol’ Days,” when the main function
of the U.S. Government was to distribute stolen Aboriginal Indigenous
Peoples’
resource plums to selected Good Ol’ Boys, are gone.
There are no more frontiers to run to, no virgin territory to
exploit
anywhere in the world. You are here, on
this land, and you had better take a very careful look at where you are
going. The Good Ol’ American Boys are
living in a make-believe world, and they have to come to terms with
reality. There is no more to
steal. Maybe you immigrants will start
seeing what’s real; then you will understand your history and your
culture, and
your European identity. Maybe you will
become civilized, yet.
LINGUISTIC TRIVIA: Roget’s Thesaurus defines a synonym of the
English hierarchial
word, “Chief” as “cock of the walk.”
“Chief” is an imported European term which is not indigenous to
this
land, and it is not in the Anishinabe Ojibway language.
(In Black-Robe Baraga’s Chippewa-Creole
language, his 19th-century dictionary translates both “Chief” and
“Government
Agent” into the same Chippewa Indian word.)
