Smithy on a plinth |
|
 The word value, it is to be observed, has two different meanings, and sometimes expresses the utility of some particular object, and sometimes the power of purchasing other goods which the possession of that object conveys. The one may be called 'value in use ;' the other, 'value in exchange.' The things which have the greatest value in use have frequently little or no value in exchange; and on the contrary, those which have the greatest value in exchange have frequently little or no value in use. Nothing is more useful than water: but it will purchase scarce any thing; scarce any thing can be had in exchange for it. A diamond, on the contrary, has scarce any value in use; but a very great quantity of other goods may frequently be had in exchange for it. New Statue unveiled today... The BBC report falls for all the right wing shite and claims of ownership of Smith and his legacy. Ignore it - it's balls and shit -- Smith was a figure of the Enlightenment - proto-capitalist - what we today would call capitalism he thoroughly despised - "a vile maxim of the masters of mankind: all for ourselves and nothing for other people". The BBC snippet doesn't mention the part in 'The Weath of Nations' where after praising the 'division of labour' for the benefits in productivity it brings, he then, hundreds of pages later, goes on to say that the very same process of labour divided will destroy human beings and turn them into creatures as stupid and ignorant as it is possible to be. And that, therefore, in any civilised society the government is going to have to take measures to prevent division of labour from proceeding to its limits. I could say more - maybe another time. |

Court news |
|
Steven Barker, 17, returns to court on charge of reckless arson to a wheelie bin, front door and porch in Hartlepool. In May, Judge Peter Bowers told Barker, who was wearing a Newcastle United football shirt in court: "I wouldn't wear that for your next appearance. Some of the other judges here are Middlesbrough fans. I'm a Sunderland supporter myself." |

Words oot of my gob if I was someone else |

This is exactly how I feel about jock shite the more I live amongst jock shite: Talking of Brits I see Andy Murray has lost. Too bad. I don't care for him much, in fact I would be pleased to see him lose any time. This is a trick I learned from the Big Macs up north. For years, like a naive innocent, I supported Scottish sportsvolk, whether individual or team, until I discovered the only miserable, small-minded pleasure most Scots got out of life was seeing England lose at anything whatesoever. So now I am glad to see them lose at anything whatsoever. You see what a monster you have created, O Caledonia? |

I'm with the 'immigranti' -- or more correctly - human beings |

 The Roma, during the course of their long and painful history have been rounded up and put into ghettos, discriminated against by law, disenfranchised and generally rejected by the dominant population of whatever country they have tried to make their home. This persecution reached its apex during world war two when an estimated 500,000 Roma were exterminated in Nazi concentration camps. Many of the Roma currently in Italy migrated to that country many years ago to escape oppression under totalitarian regimes or later conflict in the Balkans and eastern Europe. See here and here and here and follow links. Expel Italy from the EU -- make the Italian state and the corrupt clowns who govern the pretend country pay for its crimes against humanity. Wipe Italy off the map.  |

The SNP -- Tories without their kicking boots |
|
Sometimes you read something and you agree wholeheartedly with it. Sometimes you read it and you do the same and you want to storm the citadels of sick minded fuckwits. Here is a piece on Scottish 'politics', the SNP and its Homecoming Scotland 2009 'initiative'. |

Breakfast and shit like that |

Talking of eggs... I have recently taken to buying proper free range (as opposed to pretend free range) eggs. They are a bit pricey when compared to the caged and abused shite but I am willing to deal with that after seeing the Hugh Fearnly Eatsitall documentaries and shit like that about the whole chicken business and shit and so on. The thing is -- they are really fucking so much nicer -- it is unbelievable how good they are soft boiled with yer toasted soldiers. Don't know how I managed to put up with the other shite for so long. Just saying like. |

Timmy -- you are vile scum -- hear me now |

What a shitbag...A dirty little two bob apologist scumbag for an imagined world where everything is perfectly balanced and in perfect symmetry and harmony, where the haves deserve it and the have nots can rot in fucking hell. On show is the vile and filthy economist's bourgeois subjectivity, an instrumental, rational man - thus placed within a cocoon of sterile shit. I would like to see his head (economist man) mounted on the end of a stick. And shit like that. Stuff his budgie doon the fucker's throat for good measure as well. Only if the budgie is dead already -- I wouldn't want to be accused of cruelty to animals and shit like that. I fucking hate economists me I do. Shit on Tim Worstall's grave. lot's of people want to do that. I do. I am saving shit up for it. addendum: Moany Sundial -- he 'did' an economics degree. Hahahahahahahahahah!!! |

Convergence |
|
‘Swamp dwellers’, liberals, bloggertarians. The convergence is a thing to behold. We shall look back on events at a later time and wonder how it came to be. Or maybe just think … ‘the thick fucking tossers’ — they deserve each other. Fucking brainless twats and shit like that. [Insert death threat here] “It’s time for brown people to switch to Tory One more word about teaching what the world ought to be: Philosophy always arrives too late to do any such teaching. As the thought of the world, philosophy appears only in the period after actuality has been achieved and has completed its formative process. The lesson of the concept, which necessarily is also taught by history, is that only in the ripeness of actuality does the ideal appear over against the real, and that only then does this ideal comprehend this same real world in its substance and build it up for itself into the configuration of an intellectual realm. When philosophy paints its gray in gray, then a configuration of life has grown old, and cannot be rejuvenated by this gray in gray, but only understood; the Owl of Minerva takes flight only as the dusk begins to fall. |

Sunny Hundal |
|
Sunny Hundal isn't the real name of Sunny Hundal. His real name is Twat and Shit Head -- except it is hyphenated. An act or view is deemed altruistic when the actor disappears from view. So it is with Hundalism. He has become nullified and invisible. Posh people are like that -- they have lots of names and shit but use grammatically dubious shite to disguise the fact that they are inbred cunts and that. I hear that Hundal's mother shagged goats for a living. Peasants do that sort of thing so I'm not surprised. Kulaks should be removed from politics. Just saying like.
