Red Alert: Human Beings Out There Dying!

While I was thinking about writing this article, I thought about the murder manufactured to appear as a “self-inflected death” (suicide) in the middle of Michael Clayton. In the U.S. where billions are handed off to corporate cutthroats, the homeless (many of whom are unemployed workers and Iraq vets) are handed a death sentence. This population of humanity experiences a social death made to appear “self-inflected” when a cardboard box on the side of a freeway or on a populated street becomes home.

The recent “homeless,” through foreclosures, exposed the latest fiasco of the corporatists. But the corporatist’s Fixer, Treasury Secretary, Henry Paulson warned: as the Wall Street corporatists fall, the State will tumble. The Average citizen and the State paid attention and listened to the pleas of the corporatists and their Fixer – but not the pleas of the homeless, the long-time homeless, a segment of the population that serves as the best measure of a tumbling State.
