How much can i stuff in here?an essay?

So.

So. It turns out there is an all-seeing-eye after all. It is however, not a god, but the government. And it can’t see.

So, this all-seeing-eye isn’t blind. Blindness, to me, implies unintentional, a mistake, or an accident. An accident of birth, or cars, or some toxic gas, or truth. This all-seeing-eye isn’t blind, it just doesn’t want to see.

So, this all-seeing-eye that isn’t, doesn’t want to see the homeless, addicts, and prostitutes, and therefore it won’t. They don’t exist to it. (If they do it is in small manageable numbers.) To see them would be to acknowledge them, and acknowledging them would force this eye to act, because it does have to try to please the people. But it doesn’t like to act.

So. This all-seeing-eye that doesn’t see anything and therefore doesn’t have to act is also rational. It likes numbers on pages and mathematically derived conclusions that say nothing, mean nothing, and do nothing. If there are say, 2458 homeless, addicts and prostitutes in a city divided by the total population of Canada, that’s a small enough percentage to be accepted as the price of advancement, civilization, and personal happiness. Not our happiness, but the eye’s.

So this all-seeing-eye is rational, but also selfish. I suppose the two can go hand in hand. The Eye can allow a trip to Cuba or Australia in the winter and Sweden or Finland in the summer, and rationalize it as public relations. Of course, all public relations these days take place in fancy six star hotels with complementary spas for only twenty-seven taxpayer’s salaries a night. It can allow itself a little pay raise (only 52.8%)so that it is better able to provide for its subjects. I’m not sure how a well paid all-seeing-eye benefits me, or the homeless, addicts, and prostitutes, but it must. Somehow.

So. When questioned about these “public relations’, these exorbitant expenses, it will turn away, or comment on the weather in Australia, or Finland, but it will not answer the questions asked. Those questions that ask why it won’t help. Some people are confused. I think I know why it won’t help, however. It would have to do what it hates, what is so difficult for it to do, and acknowledge the problem. That it in itself, this all-seeing-eye that isn’t is right beside the roots of the problem. Inactivity and rationalized selfishness.
