"Yesterday, I wrote about how the mental illness of hoarding syndrome
afflicting a few hundred of our nation’s rightwing billionaires has destroyed a
large chunk of the American middle class and is threatening the health of our
biosphere. But the overall story is larger than just that.
Trump is embroiled in a bribery scandal that has the entire world agog. The
potentates and dictators of the Middle East are openly contemptuous of his
willingness to defy Congress and sell them advanced American weapons systems in
exchange for billion-dollar Trump hotels in their countries.
Putin and his state-owned media ridicules Trump daily, pushing his attacks on
Ukraine in Trump’s face. And federal workers and our military are aghast at the
incompetence, corruption, and even the alleged alcoholism of the people Trump
has scraped off the floor of
Fox “News” to run their agencies and make
federal prosecutors.
All of this corruption and incompetence has one major goal: the enrichment of
the Trump family and the people close to them. It’s an old, old story, that
dates back to the earliest days of human prehistory.
There are basically two models for social organization, regardless of all the
names. They are “me societies” and “we societies.”"
