I Create As I Speak

I'm sipping a Good Doctor and thinking about the sinking that is going on in reality outside my door. *looks at the Good Doctor* For those of you who do not know. A Good Doctor is as much bourbon(I like maker's mark) as you can stand, "Snap" ginger liquor, strong Ginger Beer(anything with cayene and ginger sediment) and three Moonshine Cherries. It's got a caramel color and a fresh taste.
Every time I sip this drink the world gets a bit wobbly. Now, let's be clear about this. The world doesn't get wobbly. MY world gets wobbly. And it really doesn't. My vision doesn't get wobbly. I can see as steady and straight drunk as sober. But my perception of my steady and straight vision is wobbly drunk and normal sober. So this would be a meta-perception. It's not a perversion of the information gathered, but a perversion of the interpretation of the information gathered(specifically with my center of balance, the medula oblongata, which is unrelated directly with my vision). This causes me to walk oddly, quickly, stagger and thus, my view ends up being wobbly because I act out my perverted interpretation, despite being able to see fine.
This recession. The economy is best thought of as a faith-based device that encompasses a trillion variables, to which are so varied there has not been made a computing power that could compass the breadth and scope of them. So we are riding a ship in the dark, terrified about the simple fact that we cannot even discern which wind is at our sails.
Now was America invented or discovered? Both, you say? Discovered first and invented later? Nonsense. The borders that define America are imaginary, only existing in the fake reality in a map. America is an invention. Only the land was discovered. The black lines that cannot be seen, define this nation. This doesn't cause anyone to be frightened that they will somehow lose the ability to discern where America begins and ends.
But because Keynes and Hayek, and a myriad of other theorists had to polarize things so supposedly vivid, people THINK they know. Thinking you know something is so much more dangerous than knowing or not knowing.
But, to synthesize a rant that must seemed fracted. Our economy is a frightened animal. A man shooting children up in a school, decimated Oklahoma cities and worries about the apocalypse, talk of the recession and poor decisions, eat at the faith that keeps our frightened economy alive. But things aren't so bad. Our perverted interpretation, our inebriance(the media) has us thinking things are wobbly and getting wobblier. So we are having a recession. How will we regain our composure and our balance? Believe in the invention of America and the economy that maintains her. Whatever Hayek and Keynes say, this much is true. v=5ConLzMk-jg

Goodnight, Darklings.
