George H. Bush, was dealing with yet another economic turn downturn produced by the soon-to-be named &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Irrational_exuberance\" target=\"_blank\">irrational exuberance<\/a>&#8221; and casino economy that inevitably cycles into booms and busts.\u00a0 Some things never change.\u00a0 It almost goes without saying, since we worship the economy, that moneymaking by either corporations or by people in the form of jobs is perennially issue number one, and number two as well.\u00a0 If you don&#8217;t think that we worship the economy, the next time you hear a news report or read a newspaper, just substitute &#8220;God&#8221; for &#8220;the economy&#8221; and it will make a lot of sense.\u00a0 In this case, in this design, the simple twist is a substitution of &#8220;greed&#8221; for &#8220;economy.&#8221; This hones in on the normative driving force of the so-called neutral or generic economy.\u00a0 The 1980s resulted in the coining of the phrase &#8220;greed is good.&#8221;\u00a0 The inevitable logic that led us to such a stupid conclusion is centered around the idea that the economy is the ultimate provider of good in our society, i.e., our god.\u00a0 This is why we must constantly serve the economy, feed the economy, and make it our ultimate focus. My simple definition for what constitutes one&#8217;s God, is what one values the most, what one serves over and above other potentially competing values.\u00a0 It&#8217;s interesting to note, that in the 10 Commandments, while God commands us to serve God first, God does not claim to be the only god.\u00a0 There are plenty of gods to choose from.\u00a0 A companion to the incredible confusion that would lead us to say something as stupid as greed is good, is Western civilization&#8217;s quest for objectivity or neutrality.\u00a0 Unfortunately, this perennially leads us to the conundrum of talking about what we value most while trapped in an underlying worldview that denies that any one thing is actually better than another.\u00a0 This quest for ultimate objective reduces morality to simple if-then statements, neutering any morality.\u00a0 This is the Achilles heel of denying subjective reality.\u00a0 Just because something is subjective doesn&#8217;t mean it doesn&#8217;t exist, it just means I can&#8217;t be pinned down in some definitive empirical way.\u00a0 Objectivism in our culture, and current political environment, is probably best represented by Ayn Rand.\u00a0 Ayn Rand and her ideas are idealized, even idolized, by folks of the libertarian variety.\u00a0 There is great force behind these ideas, that is, if you don&#8217;t mind ignoring the metaphysical violence that inevitably results.\u00a0 Another term for objectivism is scientific reductionism.\u00a0 In both objective reality and subjective reality some things follow other things; there is an order to the universe.\u00a0 Those who have ears to hear, and those who have a heart listen.\u00a0 A contemporary case in point would be Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul.\u00a0 Many folks with a libertarian sentiment find Ron Paul&#8217;s political philosophy very attractive.\u00a0 In my judgment, his judgment is largely negated by his gross inhumanity that frequently crops up when he takes his political philosophy to its logical conclusion.\u00a0 For example, in denying health care for those who need it and cannot afford it, quite literally saying &#8220;let them die&#8221;, reveals forcefully that his God is not about caring for one another, or caring for creation as a whole, but raises each individual to the status of a god, and is forced to accept the ensuing violence that is inherent in such an inhumane philosophy.\u00a0 If the individual is a god, not subject to any higher power, then individuals are condemned to be at war, and civility, in its best sense, will be run roughshod over, necessarily so.\u00a0 Bringing this all back to the economy, greed is not good.\u00a0 To have to even state such a truism is a testament to the sickness from which we currently suffer.\u00a0 The idea that greed is a legitimate organizing principle for society should be offensive to anyone with a heart.\u00a0 Of course, if being heartless is not a barrier to living one&#8217;s life fully, then go ahead and follow this mechanistically violent path to its logical conclusion.\u00a0 I guess my concluding point would be that logic reaches a conclusion before life does, and that to continue living, that is to not reduce ourselves to being some mechanistic robot, we need to transcend logic.\u00a0 This is the realm of the heart.\u00a0 This is the realm of God.\u00a0 By living fully into this realm, logic need not be tossed out, it merely serves a higher purpose, a humane purpose, a godly purpose.\u00a0 May it be so!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the Greed, Stupid POLITICAL BUTTON It&#8217;s the Greed, Stupid POLITICAL BUTTON This cool design is linked to a button, but other
