Parasite economies to not work - You can not bite off the hand that feeds you
Here is an example:
In Cleveland Ohio USA, the local politicians added an increase in sales tax to fund a medical mart and try to control the process outside the will of the people. Top Cleveland Plain Dealer journalist Kevin Obrien says those who resist the project should get out of the way and let it come. He uses this example as a way to stimulate the local economy and adds in his take on the causes behind our economic crisis. He says we need to stop making envy of virtue and success being a sin. This perspective reveals a mental void about what it takes to make the free enterprise system work.
Kevin Obrien bags big business with small business as one and misses the point. They are not the same. Our problems are not about envy or success being a sin. Our problems are about unfair trade. Small business and the free enterprise system have been smashed by corporate greed. In most cases the main product of big business is making money on money instead of making things or selling things at a reasonable markup in any reasonable fair way.
When small business is left unprotected, it is devoured by big business where a lost leader economy controls the process. Small business does not stand a chance when facing opposition that can sell under costs to grab market share while looking good for the stock exchange. Large corporations can last for years this way. However, after this scenario plays out and there is no one left to devour, the money games begin in a global economic arena where labor is deflated to fill the gap. The globalist free traders forgot that the value of labor and workers represent a real money value and acts as a money standard. With this value radically deflated the whole process starts tumbling down. And all the king's men and all the global money funds in the world can not fill the void.
There is no such thing as a perpetual motion economy but that is what big money tried to accomplish.
As far as completing the medical mart in Cleveland, not much will come of it. It is putting the cart before the horse. The medical industry is dependent on a good tax base. The medical industry can not survive by itself. With fewer and fewer private sector small businesses, there is no way to pay the toll. Taking it out of sale taxes is also a defeating method. It acts as a tariff on the free enterprise system which is being smashed by corporate greed in a setting where big government and big money have married. The medical mart project is an example of this merger and of everything that is bad. The money games are coming to an end and we need to find real ways to grow real values in a protected free enterprise environment. The spinning top of big money, big government and corporate greed is spinning to a stop.
We need real commerce now that adds value from raw products up through layers of added value to the retail or end user level as local as possible. There is no other way.
