corporate america has us hooked on meth
Bookmarked 716 weeks ago
right now - in small towns across america - the working poor who039ve been hit hardest by the second republican great depression - are turning to meth to get by either by manufacturing and selling it - or just by using it to escape it039s as though recessions are the harbinger of meth as soon as an economic downturn hits - meth comes along right behind it in his recent book - quotmethland: the death and life of an american small townquot - author nick reding goes to an iowa town of about 6000 people - to document how the economic downturn wiped out the local economy - and how meth eventually crept in to finish everyone off he didn039t go to iowa to talk about meth as a singular problem affecting small towns - across america instead - he went there to show how meth is a consequence - or a symptom - of an economic breakdown in which the middle class is disappearing and more and more americans are unable to find economic success after the banksters blew up our economy - and corporate america - companies like apple or hp or amway - decided to stash their profits away or invest elsewhere rather than help put americans back to work - small towns went into a death spiralsmall businesses couldn039t get loans - so they had to lay off workers or close down altogether now out of a job - people didn039t have money to spend - so other businesses went under since no one is making money - local governments weren039t collecting as much revenue - so they had to cut back on social services - like making sure there are enough cops to crack down on meth dealers - or making sure there were enough social workers and counselors to help those who were getting hooked on meth so small towns across america became the perfect breeding ground for crank and it039s at this point that big companies are making the problem much much worse
