The Cancer Stage of Economic Parasitism, 30
With regards to the contributions of parasitology, oncology and econophysics to economics, Nury keenly points out how “scientific advancement (the “paradigm shift” cliché) is fundamentally about making the invisible visible”, and in order to do just that I’ll take the liberty to answer in my turn to a question that Nuri imagines hypothetically asked, “How could entire banks be corrupt?”, implying that current “controls” of the “system” ought to be such that only the single dishonest individual can get through its mesh, but not entire dishonest organisations. Well, I’m afraid the cliché of paradigm shift shall once again apply here…
The problem is not the single individual exploiting a gap in the system. The problem is the very system itself. Fraud is intrinsically at the core of the system itself. Moneypulation is the greatest fraud in human history and the whole system is built on it. And built to serve it in the first place. And banks are but its implementation. Hence a banker is either a moneypulator or a moneypulator’s accomplice or servant, and he or she is so in facts, regardless of his or her awareness of moneypulation.
In the film Apocalypse Now, when the main character becomes aware of the mission assigned to him, “put an and to the command” of a colonel “gone insane” in the middle of the Vietnam war, he thinks, “Charging a man with murder in this place was like handing out speeding tickets in the Indy 500.” Well, imagine yourself saying to a disloyal banking officer, “Pull over; your documents, please”, without realising you’re in the middle of a racetrack, where all banking officers are turned into racing cars competing for their place in the “system”, where they’re all turned into the cogs of the mass murder machine built by the moneypulators and their partners in crime, and either trapped in the dilemma of conscience versus obedience or lost in the unawareness of what they’re part of.
But there aren’t only bankers thronging the track; as we’ve seen before in the hollowed out social bond and where the harvest snowballs, the track looks pretty much like Monza when the public traditionally invades it after the race. Nuri remarks how “even the possibility of parasitism already infecting the existing scientific establishment is conceivable.” Indeed, racing teams are composed of lots of staff: not just drivers but also logistics personnel, mechanics and the alike, and particularly engineers, spin doctors and directors, and you may begin to catch sight here of the dawn of what I previously called the hollowed out social bond; hollowed out by the fact that due to the metastasising of the parasitic cancer more and more people become potential trouble sources living out of feeding it.
