About the power of money and money of power

Passion for drugs - drug addiction, for theft - kleptomania, for drunkenness - alcoholism. What is the term for the passionate acquisition of millions and billions? Reality has already shown that this process cannot be dispassionate. What about the unbridled desire for power? All manias and isms come from the same “root”; their common basis is complete dependence on the desire to receive only for oneself. Receive money, honor and fame.

Petty crooks are caught and imprisoned, while more dangerous money and power gainers are respected. In a world of false goals and values, in an inverted consciousness, money and power are set as the main priorities.

Immorality from stupidity is ignorance, from duality of thinking is schizophrenia, and from political intent is “concern for the state.” But what will happen to the state if crazy money and power grabbers have infiltrated all its structures? Is it because we still don’t have a national idea, because all ideas are focused on snatching more and ruling longer? Bribes, kickbacks, cuts - “without fear or reproach.” Corruption is an indisputable fact. At these words, no one looks around anymore.

Choosing a false goal, the desire for money and power is the path to self-destruction of the state and, accordingly, the people. Society in this state is already coming to an end, the state itself doesn’t have much time left, and then it’s the people’s turn. The question is whether he will also stupidly wait for his death or not. And also when the oil and gas will run out.

Supermonopoly is thriving in Russia. If not scientifically, but figuratively – semi-feudal oligarchism. Where the cult of money is implanted, where it becomes an end in itself, all capital is accumulated by oligarchs and monopolies, and the people are destroyed. People are consumables; the cheaper, the greater the profit. The population has run out - guest workers will come. I wrote “there”, but this is already “here” and “now”.

Monopolies raise and maintain prices. Where there are any significant cash flows, the market is monopolized, its own established connections, agreements, suppliers and corruption schemes are created. The retail market, with the patronage of the authorities, is also captured by monopolies. For the acceptance of goods into retail trade, such monopolies are paid kickbacks, so the path to Russia for cheap goods is closed. We will not see the benefits of the WTO.

“When property is concentrated in one hand, the people disperse. When property is distributed, the people unite” (Confucius).

A monopoly not governed by the norms of morality and legislative law with an ineradicable passion for power and money is also the gravedigger of the country and the people.

No less deadly for the state is the passion for power for the sake of power and power over budget flows. Because with us, whoever holds power establishes his own rules. Ours and for our own, for the monopolies and oligarchs who give money to the authorities. But not for the people. For the people - bread, circuses, a lot of vodka and, just in case of emergency, a few horror stories about treacherous foreign countries and State Department mercenaries.

To gain and maintain power, they resort to tricks, forgery and deception. Fresh memories of the last “elections”. In Alexei Tolstoy's children's fairy tale "The Peasant and the Bear", the clubfoot, incompetent in tops and spines, was left a fool. A similar divorce occurred in the elections. You will select lists of deputies, and we will compile these lists. The tops of the turnip are for you, and the fruits for us. It can be the other way around: you get the roots of the wheat, and we get the tops. The only difference from the fairy tale is that in the elections the “bear” deceived the “man”. Which, however, is anti-symbolic and indicates that we do not live in the fairy tale that is portrayed to us. In life, swindlers obsessed with power traditionally deceive men. Only the technologies of deception change.

But everything needs to change, starting with the assessment of reality. It is not the people in power or even the party that need to be changed. The system itself, in which neither government nor business is limited by anything, should be changed. If the criminal passion for money and power is not limited, then the power of money and the meanness of power will destroy the people.
