Corona, Corona
When the market is needed at its best is when it’s working at its worst, said Stefan Ingves, Governor of the Central Bank of Sweden. Perhaps this is why the capital in crisis suddenly wants the state to interfere in their business,
of course only by pumping money into the capital, and thus prop up the capital. When business returns to its normal state, the state also should go back to its passive role. The money given by the state has by then disappeared in form of dividends to the capital owners. Others might say the crises is a clear sign of the inherent divergence in capitalism,
for those who don’t see the development towards the apocalypse in the shape of climate change and increasing class differences as proof enough. But in the absence of revolution and socialism the crises will only lead further in the monopolization of the capital, that is, companies will go under and the remaining will be larger and fewer.
Corona, Corona was written when the death rate was 9 000. When this is written, the death rate has increased to 265 000. The other numbers remains the same, 25 000 people is dying from starvation every day, 3 000 children dying from malaria every day, hundreds of people dies in the war in Yemen every day. The numbers is presumed to have increased tho’, due to recourses that’s been redirected to fight Covid-19.
That’s civilized!
were on this dead end job, going nowhere
it cover our costs of living but not a lot more
were building pyramids, palaces and bunkers
damned capitalists letting us roll their Sisyphean boulder
we started at the bottom, we’ve been there ever since
working hard, tho’ the works both laborious and pointless
telling it like it is wont change a thing
it only provokes the managements omnipotence
idolized and misprized – that’s civilized
apolitized and mesmerized – that’s civilized
we got something in front of us that is waiting to happen
probably sooner than later, and it wont be no good
an imposed relationships end is not a matter of if, but when
its predestined, still we wouldn’t change it even if we could
half of the work consists of dealing with the others mess
on a good day, two steps forward one and a half back
society is hanging by a thread, the weakest link is the strongest
sometimes it amazes us, mostly were stunned that its not more fucked up
they pay others to do the dirty work, if it’s discovered, also the fall
silence might be rewarded, talking will get you killed for sure
remember, its not a crime as long as you don’t get caught
and convicted, so shut up and wait for the lawyer
in the poorer parts of town, kids high on drugs armed with guns
are killing each other in pursuit of a fast buck and fame
like they’ve seen on the screen, and been told in mainstream pop songs
ending up in writing on a wall, free or rip followed by one more name
there’s class and there’s class, blue collar crime, white collar crime
blue collar workers are the agents, white collars runs the courts
the prisons filled with blue collar, personnel and prisoners doing time
the courts hand out sentences, so they themselves stand above the law
