An End to This Blog in the Foreseeable Future

There may be more to say on this site. And I haven't exactly taken the time to market it. However, at present, I feel it's time to close up shop.

I can point to one area in particular—creativity—where I have some definite ideas which I feel I should express, perhaps, at some point. Nevertheless, there are good reasons not to.

For one, as my experience with blogging about psychiatry has shown, it's my most important ideas to which no one is inclined to listen. So even if I were to blog about creativity, I'm not sure anyone would really pay attention.

But more importantly, I have to note the reality of contemporary society. My opinions on creativity point to a new idea of how economics ought to work. However, the reality of our society is that no matter what I say about how it ought to work, the fact is, there is no such thing as an economy at all.

An economy implies a system whereby mainly commodities (though also services) are traded for mutual benefit and the growth of wealth. This is not what we have. What we have is a system whereby human beings are given an excuse to preoccupy themselves with pointless pursuits (i.e. work) in order to render them inert until their eventual deaths, for the purpose, I think, of allowing the rich to have a playground of human slaves, with no responsibilities, and no barriers to their various frivolous and destructive pursuits.

What this means, in terms of my philosophy of creativity for the purpose of economic development, is that introducing it would be a moot point. Obviously, a philosophy for creative development would be intended to make people money. But that is impossible. Money, in our society, doesn't exist. The little Treasury Notes we carry around are not money, but a slightly more complex form of food stamps. They don't buy commodities for the purpose of growth, but are simply a) a form of Monopoly cash to make us think we're being productive, and b) a way to expedite token nutrient delivery from Monsanto.

One can see, obviously, that a system of creative economic philosophy, while it may make you money, it will certainly not guarantee you food stamps, or Monopoly cash. So I see no point in introducing it. The only people whom it'd benefit are the ones who actually have money—the very people who do nothing but cause everyone harm, all day, every day. They don't need any more help. They've already succeeded.

Therefore, I see no need, necessarily, to contribute to this blog any further. I am announcing that I plan to make no more contributions for the foreseeable future. Thank you all for reading, and I appreciate the web hits. I hope I've made some contribution to something, despite the fact that this world is fucked up beyond repair.
