Iwishtherewas*

I wish there was
is the name of a

site where you c
an do a want and

perchance it will
come true. Sounds

marvelous makes
n't it? The site

Iwishtherewas can
assist you encou

nter a solution
to your job. The

thought is great
I conceive, beca

use not simply is
it a opportunity

to verily chance
that solution, b

ut too because it
Holds the follow

ing logical meas
ure for companies

to cognize what p
eople really des

ire. All you sho
uld make is dire

ct in your want a
nd wait for a com

pany to pick it u
pwards. Or you may

happen out that
there already is

a solution to your
job! It is ally in

line with the ten
dency of utilizi

ng people (crowds)
to market your th

oughts or get fee
dback on your mer

chandises. See be
sides crowd sourc

ing. That is all
about linking peo

ple and companies
to excogitate bet

ter wares or to me
liorate merchandi

ses. Increasingly
the net is seen as

a spot where there
is more info, but

where there is a w
hole rootage of no

esis and thoughts,
free to utilize for

everybody. And, peo
ple care to be heard!

The Plan

The plan is not the
Body as Creeley once
Wrote there is no

Plan not even the body
Is a plan my body wrote
And yours wrote where

We becomes one sub-
ject and theirs is an
Allergen to the dermis

Beginning in this situ-
ation to become these
Hives arrive what

Better oversensitivity
To matter little co-
lonies of them on

My hands without
Keeper my body sov-
ereign and your tears

This I this you apart it
Is situational an event
But it isn't a plan

Pain is not a plan
Irritation is not a plan
It is a mood defining

Our relationship to
Things mediated by
The skin 90% holes

Whenever I let you
Whenever you let
The world in what

Forms will this pro-
duce what will emerge
Through stress related

To the surface the
Body is an environment
It is an ecology but

It is not a plan it is
A hiccup to being
Also that which we

Notice conspicuous
When it breaks down
The flesh perhaps

That is the body con-
stituting itself an event
Inappropriate like

Everything else par-
ticular what gestures
It will bring what

Breakdown and un-
known causes these
Are also a metaphysics

Truth of matter when
It erupts there is an I
More sympathetic with

We there is an em-
pathy one feels with
One's self as though

It were another observing
Its symptoms and ef-
fects from afar the plan

Is not the body the body
Is an event amidst
Other events the body

Is an ethic which makes
An I them translating
Distances through skin.

Chomsky on "too big to fail" and the recent push for nationalized healthcare

Perhaps useful for thinking about recent corporate bail-outs, and changes in "public" opinion about nationalizing healthcare:
