I’m an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such.

I see anarchism as something you do not an identity...

...so don’t call me the anarchist anthropologist

Actually I argue the national debt is not a problem at all, that all modern economies have to have a national debt, & politicians know it

WashPost, which never saw fit to review Debt or reveal any idea in it, runs blog to discuss whether or not it contains an idea it doesn’t

Interesting the technology that allows total bureaucratisation of everyday life only develops later, showing it’s result not cause

Populist anti-bureaucracy directed solely vs gov’t even as actual bureaucracy is privatized, only benefits the right

This also meant including upper echelons of professional classes in investing class, they become the base of mainstream/acceptable “left”

’80s on, corp piracy, merger mania, junk bonds, asset stripping, private equity all part of this shift of alliance to shareholders & finance

Left critique of bureaucracy in ’60s tacitly highlights similarity of social democracy & fascism. This true but now irrelevant

Most 20C saw corporatism as “technostructure” of big firms in tacit alliance with at least elite workers vs finance. Extreme form = fascism

think I have my argument. New era of total bureaucratisation begins w shift of alliance of corporate bur’crats from workers to shareholders

I like archeology dept lifts. Just watched a very short man tell a very tall woman “well I don’t know if it was a scraper or a blade…”

It is total because it has moved out of govt & a few big corporations to enfold every aspect of our existence

How to talk about fusion of public & private bur. that pervades our lives today? Thinking of calling it “the age of total bureaucratisation”

thin-skinned? He wasn’t even criticizing me! He’d just made a factual error, I assumed as a journalist he’d be happy to be set straight.

Mon 23 Jun 2014 23:22

3rd time he says it, I say, um, why do you keep saying this. He explodes & calls me a “thin-skinned raver.” Huh? I was just correcting him!

Mon 23 Jun 2014 23:21

twice he’s mistakenly written I’d met with the Board of the Fed Reserve, twice I’ve corrected him, said, alas, no, I hadn’t

Mon 23 Jun 2014 23:21

does anyone have a theory what’s the deal with Henwood’ behavior, because I’m honestly confused

Mon 23 Jun 2014 13:58

I should wear a badge: “anyone who gives me too hard a time will end up in my forthcoming book on bureaucracy.” Actually everyone should.

i.e. when I deal with my bank, there’s endless paperwork. They’d say it’s all due to gov’t regulation, but they likely write half of it.

So I’m looking for vivid examples of how corporate bureaucracy & gov’t bureaucracy are so interlocked as to be indistinguishable.

I actually did slip on a banana peel today! Someone had dropped it in middle of street. Didn’t fall down though. Just skidded.

I am very interested in learning more about the “Iraqi spring” and how its violent repression opened way for people to throw in with Jihadis

this blog contains an outright lie, claiming I’d backed Foust’s claims. I demand the blogger w/draw it. http://t.co/BSPNKny2rX
