We might be talking about a small crack in you favorite icon here.Fictitious Entities, you say.

Big ones, like octopussies.

Don't you be too worried about them, because they have the CIA. The CIA might say. "who the fuck is John Smith?" You'll never hear them say, "who is Exxon?" "Who is IBM?" "Who is the Carlyle Group?" And they wear really nice suits. Anyway, they think they wear really nice suits. That'd be the folks that these morons think they are supposed to work for. You know, American corporations Voting lubricant, best used in bodacious quantities.  Not the same as corporate largesse?overseas. That would be fictitious entities. They can't vote, but they know where the real power lies. They can buy votes. That's just business. Do you remember Martha Mitchell? Wife of the Attorney General of the U.S. He went to jail. Martha said the US killed Salvadore Allende, the duly elected president of Chile. That would be to protect the national interest of the US, which would be the copper mines of Chile that Allende was going to nationalize for the good of Chile. They said Martha was an alcoholic and had her institutionalized quickly. The US wouldn't think that way about oil, would it?

You can bet your ass they do, and add pipelines, distribution lines, tankers, etc. to the list while you're at it. We didn't own the copper, IT&T did. I'm not saying IT&T was a CIA front, but it disappeared shortly after, the same as Howard Hughes empire. At the time copper was the name of communications and messages traveled around the world on twisted pairs of copper wire, now it is fiber optics, and satellite dishes. That would explain why the Army bought the Iridium satellite system. Who's going to buy Global Crossing? The CIA? The FBI? If they don't buy it, it means it's an indefensible asset. Should these people be in business? Didn't they do a nice job in banking? BCCI! How are you going to keep track of big banking if you're not a big banker? Would that work for telecommunications? How about the NSA "back door" into windows? How does one collate all this data? Are there any other "back doors" into windows? How much does it cost for your own "back door?" "Echelon", back doors, snooping, techno wizardry, suits, degrees, really big high tech weapons, second generation CIA in the main office, getting the 1st, 4th, and some of the other pesky amendments under control, get better control of the bureaucracy, tighten police forces, and make the world a safe place for big business, even if the world doesn't like it or want it. That's a scenario one should try to grasp. Won't it be nice when the CIA and other intelligence agencies run the world. Nice suits. Stuffed suits. CIA assetts. Those would be the people who actually do spy work. Not official agents, don't get promoted, not real agents, because they might not wear nice suits, and their hands might be dirty. Don't even recognize these dipshits, because they will steal the thunder.

Wait a minute. I must be a dumb shit again. I seem to be saying that the spies, on the ground or in the foxholes, are diminished by the CIA, that needs their info badly. Well, you have to understand that they usually don't have nice suits or degrees, just extremely valuable info that they may have risked their lives acquiring. Dispensable and they don't have nice suits or degrees. What the hell kind of agency would it be if these uneducated buffoons, who are very good spies, worked their way into the management? For Is there something wrong with this picture.  You damn betcha.Chrissakes', what might happen to the nice suits? As you can see from OK City, Waco, USS Cole, WTC, this suit system is really working and should be expanded into an even bigger and more powerful agency for the public (spell that corporate) good. Won't that be nice when we get homeland security brought to you by the buffoons of big business? Now, really, these look harmless next to all that flowing water.  What's downstream anyway?Will it incorporate any special considerations for the utilities or energy industries? We'll probably want to shut down all those Nuke plants because they all sit on major fresh waterways and have tremendous potential for downstream contamination. I'm sure the proposal says to build more because we need them. That would be a misprint, right? No misprint. They want to build more nukes, and have the government protect them, like the oil businesses. You knew, of course. that these were all fictitious entities. That'd be the CIA's pals, although they still can't figure out who the fuck John Smith is, or John Doe for that matter. That would be you and I, but I just can't figure out how we fit in this plan, although I suspect that we write the checks. We definitely don't think. That is not illegal, however. Not yet. First the amendments, then this free thought business. One step at a time.
