Not unlike the prostitute’s lament in the 1930‘s Cole Porter standard from the poorly received, The New Yorkers, our politics, ergo our government, ergo our mindset has become a blatant lap dance for cash: to get candidates noticed and elected; to insure candidates’ votes on legislation; to influence constituents with factually-challenged advertising.  With the help of the Supremely inept Court, monetary influence is now virtually unchecked and unlimited.  Proponents of any cause or candidate can form a PAC, name it The Committee to End Incestuous Tree Frog Copulation and play on the emotional outrage of those inherently opposed to such things to raise and distribute money in any way they see fit, (the degrees of separation between any issue and incestuous tree frog copulation is surprisingly less than that between [blank] and Kevin Bacon).  This woeful and probably irreversible state of being has no positive outcome.  The line in the sand between the wealthy few and everyone else is blurred by the media-driven importance on market values, commodity futures, currency exchanges and the myth that their movement is cause for elation or alarm.  When everything becomes only about ‘profit’…everyone loses.  Irresponsible Capitalism, (the brass ring of free market enterprise), enriching itself by unconscionably pursuing a profit-at-any-cost doctrine, continues to run amok, blatantly and legally buying the political and judicial influence to meander merrily on its greedy way.  And the beast goes on.
