Do we care whether the country have no money?

I have not been reading the papers in depth recently. The US government shutdown dominates the headline.

The apparent disconnect between the shutting down of the US government and the market is amazing. This market have not moved an iota in spite of the shutting down of basic government services and security forces remain unpaid.

There have not been major reports of violence and neither is there mass panic painting the headlines. I have not been able to read in depth the mechanics how this shut down works but this means nothing more than an administrative backlog and nothing more than a slowdown in all forms of non-essential services.

This means that all emergencies will be catered for and all other forms of non-emergency cases will be push behind. If the government is incapable to pay it's people and yet the country functions as per normal means that it is a function of nothing more than a procedural limitations rather than true fiscal picture. This apparent gridlock is the result of the clash between the dominant parties inability to agree on statutory limits of the debt and not because it is a cash flow problem.

This means that it is business as usual but let just put it this way: We are facing some problems agreeing with each other- please bear with us. But the problem lies whether this is a systemic problem. This debt ceiling debate is an overhang on the apparent downgrade of it's sovereign bonds and it sudden need to exercise financial prudence even if it is means of statutory limitations rather than a fiscal one.

But the problem is that should an abstract and an almost ridiculously inane debate between two parties caused a shutdown of essential services even if basic functions continue as per normal. Are you trying to say that we really don't need the government and how do we provide basic services to everyone and it citizens and residents.

On the ground level, I am not there to experienced the true picture but it seems like this is a non-event, the willing shut-down of a government due to money problems. Huh.

We all can postulate one very simple idea is that: the government has been able to incorporate it's functions into various sectors in a manner which even essential services is shut down, these functions will continue to flow. This ultimately means all manner of political philosophy has lost its meaning altogether.

If security forces are left unpaid and government workers are not guaranteed their pay even if they have worked, what does it mean for the state, the nation and citizenship. Does it mean that a country is nothing more than a provider of services and nothing more. Of what use then, is the meaning of years of fighting, from the idea of a community, to the state and religion separation, the Magna Cartar, the Rights of Man, the Revolution, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the Rationalism and ultimately finance. Does this means all man is a self-directed individual by which it's desires and wants are fulfilled by the manner by which the state is there but not there. If we are nothing more than self-seeking individual with no inkling of where we come from, and how we got there in the first place, of what use is having a small state, big market or, big state and centralized economy argument for in the first place.

In many developed countries, where the state has integrate itself seamlessly into the private sector by which this divide is blur, this apparent event is a non-event; insofar by which it is apparent, it does that the government is nothing more than a symbolic figurehead, the constitution, past endeavors and adventure and sense of history is nothing more than something to be manipulated, controlled and ultimately given as a free propaganda for it to provide, whatever you want and what they take mentality.

The feeling at this current moment begs this particular question is that where is Man heading. We have insatiable appetite and that is almost a given, but if the state is not the provider and the regulator of this wants and desires, who is then?

Economic Rationalism by which the linear relationship between what the people want and what the economy can provide is nothing more than Malthusian nightmare but this government shutdown has convinced many people, we can have anything we want so long as someone can provide it- it doesn't matter why and how, it jus is. If we can shut down a government and nothing really eventful happens, how then does Malthusian nightmare be ameliorated simply by inserting the state into various sectors.

Does this means that the state is among us and we have North Korean nightmare by which the small state is nothing more than ideological in by which it has been able to provide essential services simply being not there. Globalization have killed us and Internet have brought us together in a manner by which all differences has been removed and only our needs and wants are essential. Who are the Epilsons, the Gammas, and who are these people by which it seems no one cares and yet moved along with their lives.

We can postulate one very simply vision from the above episode, the small state does not exist anywhere, it is everywhere. The state is not just as a regulator, it is a provider and it is able to harvest all the needs and distribute by a manner by which it's forces are non-existent.

The social contract does not exist insofar by which the state is no longer the monopoly of violence but as a provider: if it is a private enterprise by which provision of goods and services is essential, what does it leave for private individuals exercising the free choice in the market place. Being a regulator and a provider is in itself a conflict of interest and can it provide the materiality by which the hegemony sits on. What are we sitting on really?

The hegemony we sits on is nothing more than the ability to fulfill wants, desires insofar by which disorder is barred. This means that we can have everything that we want so long as we keep our mouth shut. Does it sounds like anarchy- order without law.

If anarchy is a hegemonic state, this means the order by which we sits on is nothing more than ability to not be disorderly and have no form of meaning by which having a form without the function.

The apparent disconnect between the market and a US government is a superfluous one, this means that the country is business as usual and we are still in charge, you just don't see us. If you see us, you better watch out. The relationship between the state and citizen is blurred, but it doesn't mean that the nation, the history can be wipe out if I tell the you we cannot disagree on something we intend to agree on in the future. No one died, it is simply in black and white and in words.
