建立摧毀美國的第一個共和國

Monday, October 6th, 2008 星期一，二○○八年十月六日

By Sam Smith | Of George Bush’s many sins, one has remained unnoted.由山姆史密斯|布什政府的許多罪惡，一個一直unnoted 。 He and his aides are so absurdly inept at most of what they do that they have diverted attention from the fact that America’s collapse began well before Bush came into office and has continued under his command with considerable aid and comfort from the most respected, celebrated well paid subcultures of our society.他和他的助手是如此荒唐的無能在大多數他們所做的事情，他們把注意力從事實，即美國的崩潰開始之前布什上台，並繼續他指揮下了相當大的援助和安慰的最受尊敬的，慶祝亞文化以及支付我們的社會。 In the end, Bush is but a painful caricature of a much deeper reality, part of which is that if we had not already been in a state of cultural, political and intellectual disintegration, he never would have been elected in the first place.最後，布什是一個痛苦的，但諷刺的更深刻的現實，其中一部分是，如果我們尚未在一個國家的文化，政治和智力解體，他永遠不會被選為擺在首位。

Just one year into Bush’s regime, I spoke at a punk concert and offered some thirty examples of civil liberties that had eroded during the life of anyone only 25 years of age.僅僅一年到布什總統的政權，我以一個朋克音樂會，並提出大約30個例子公民的自由權的削弱在生活的任何人都只有25歲。 I also noted that the earnings of everyone under 25 - black, white, latino, male and female - had declined over the past twenty years, about 5% for the most part - with the earnings of black and white males under 25 down 17 to 21%.我還指出，收入都在25 -黑色，白色，拉丁美洲，男性和女性-已下降了近2 0年來，約有5％的大部分-與收益的黑人和白人男性在25至17日下跌21 ％。 A typical young white male was earning $97 less a week in real dollars than two decades earlier.一個典型的年輕的白人男性收入不到97美元一個星期美元，實際比20年前。 And this was all before Bush got his hands on the country.這是布什面前人人手中獲得了該國。

It has become easy and fun to blame it all on Bush - and certainly he has contributed more than his share to the nation’s problems - but as we may discover when he leaves, he has had plenty of predecessors as well as many accomplices who will remain in power.它已成為容易和樂趣，這一切歸咎於布什-當然，他的貢獻更多的份額比他的國家的問題-但是，當我們可能會發現他離開時，他已經有足夠的前任以及許多同謀誰將繼續掌權。

A fair judgment would be that America began falling apart about twenty years before Bush took office.一個公平的判決將是美國開始崩潰大約20年前布什上台。 The man in charge at the time was Ronald Reagan, who took two centuries of American history and turned it into a corny cowboy movie that he could understand but had little relationship to reality.該負責人當時裡根誰了兩個世紀的美國歷史上並把它變成陳詞濫調牛仔電影，他可以理解，但沒有什麼關係的現實。 Yet, like Bush, he could not have done it alone.然而，喜歡布什，他不能這樣做單獨行事。 The purported best and brightest told us it was true.所謂最好和最聰明的告訴我們，這是真的。

And they have yet to tell us the truth about the Reagan years that spawned the deadly philosophy that greed is good, nothing big needs to be regulated and the market will save us all.和他們還沒有告訴我們真相的裡根來產生致命的理念，貪婪是好的，沒有什麼大需要加以規範和市場將會節省了我們所有人。

It is useful - if a bit tardy - to review the Reagan facts rather than the legend, for it shows how the most mundanely accurate analysis might have led us in a different direction.它是有用的-如果有些遲緩-審查裡根的事實，而不是傳說，它顯示了如何最精確的分析mu ndanely可能導致我們在不同的方向。 For example, a study published in the Congressional Record in March 1984 looked at the first three years of the Regan administration and compared to the three that preceded it.例如，一份研究報告刊登在國會記錄在期待1984年3月在頭三年的裡根政府和相比，三個之前。 The study found研究發現

- Real GNP growth down 59% -皇家國民生產總值增長率下降5 9％
- Industrial production down 97% -工業生產下降9 7％
- Housing starts down 27% -房屋開工下降2 7％
- Domestic auto sales down 26% -國內汽車銷售下降2 6％
- Business failures up 189% -商業失敗了1 89％
- Civilian unemployment up 389% -民警失業率上升3 89％
- Real disposable income down 32% -實際可支配收入下降了3 2％
- Prime rate up 35% -總理率增長3 5％
- Federal budget deficit up 215% -聯邦預算赤字增長2 15％
- Farm income down 326% -農民收入下降3 26％

Also during the Reagan years:另外，在裡根年：

- Four members of the Reagan cabinet came under criminal investigation -4名成員的內閣裡根受到刑事調查

- The Reagan administration had secret plans for an unconstitutional takeover of the federal government under an ill-defined national emergency. -裡根政府曾秘密計劃的違憲接管聯邦政府下的定義不清的全國緊急狀態。 Members of the government created by the coup were selected and included Richard Cheney.政府成員所造成的政變被選定的，其中包括理查德切尼。

- Reagan’s policies led to the greatest financial scandal in American history up to that point: the Savings & Loan debacle which cost taxpayers billions of dollars. -裡根的政策導致了最大的金融醜聞在美國歷史上最多這一點：儲蓄和貸款的崩潰而花費納稅人數十億美元。 “” “ ”

- Reagan made major cuts in Medicaid, food stamps, aid to families with dependent children, and school lunch programs. -裡根作出了重大削減醫療補助，食品券，援助受撫養兒童家庭，和學校午餐計劃。 Reagan fired 13,000 air traffic controllers in a devastating blow to government union members from which the labor movement never recovered.裡根發射13000空中交通管制員在一個毀滅性的打擊，以政府的工會會員從勞工運動從來沒有收回。

- “”The AIDS crisis exploded (with 20,000 deaths) before Reagan could even bring himself to address the issue six years later. -“ ”的艾滋病危機發生爆炸（有2 0000人死亡）前裡根甚至可以把自己解決這一問題的六年後。 In his authorized biography he is quoted as saying that “maybe the Lord brought down this plague,” because “illicit sex is against the Ten Commandments.”在其授權的傳記，他引述說， “也許是上帝被擊落這一禍害” ，因為“非法性行為是違反十誡。 ”

- Reported the Washington Post: “The administration in 1984 secretly sold arms to Iran — which the United States considered a supporter of terrorism — to raise cash for Nicaraguan contra rebels, despite a congressional ban on support for the Latin American insurgency. -報告說，華盛頓郵報： “美國政府於1 984年秘密出售武器給伊朗-美國視為支持恐怖主義-以提高現金禁忌尼加拉瓜反政府武裝，儘管國會禁止支持拉丁美洲的叛亂。 An independent investigation concluded that the arms sales to Iran operations “were carried out with the knowledge of, among others, President Ronald Reagan [and] Vice President George Bush,” and that “large volumes of highly relevant, contemporaneously created documents were systematically and willfully withheld from investigators by several Reagan Administration officials.”一個獨立的調查得出結論認為，對台軍售伊朗行動“進行了知情的情況下，除其他外，裡根總統[和]副總統喬治布什， ”和“大量的高度相關， contemporaneously創建文件系統和隨意扣留從調查的幾個裡根政府官員。 “

- “”"”"”After a major tax cut, there was a long recession and unemployment that hit ten percent. -" """""後的一個主要的減稅，還有很長的衰退和失業的打擊百分之十。

This was the foundation upon which the present disaster has been built - policy drawing upon fantasy, theological rigidity, fiscal myth and a faith in “free markets” actually created by hidden subsidies, thousands of lobbyists, runaway Pentagon purchases and manipulation of the law to favor banks and corporations rather than ordinary Americans.這是基礎，目前災害已經建成-政策借鑒幻想，神學的剛性，財政神話和信仰的“自由市場”所造成實際上隱藏補貼，成千上萬的遊說者，離家出走五角大樓採購和操縱法有利於銀行和企業，而不是普通美國人。

By the time the truth was too painful to ignore - nearly three decades later - the myth had recruited major media from Fox and the Wall Street Journal to NPR and the Washington Post.當真相是太痛苦忽略-近三十年後-神話招募主要媒體從福克斯和華爾街日報到的N P R和華盛頓郵報。 It had been given the blessing of innumerable academics who developed complex justifications for primitive, simplistic and false assumptions.它已被賦予祝福無數學者誰開發複雜的理由，原始，簡單和錯誤的假設。 And even Democrats - from Clinton to Obama - paid regular homage to economic principles whose only true beneficiaries were the very few at the very top.甚至民主黨-從克林頓奧巴馬-支付定期參拜的經濟原則，其唯一真正的受益者是極少數在最高層。

It became the core ideology of an American establishment that would turn out to be the worst and the dumbest.它成為核心思想是美國建立將變成最差的愚蠢。 As Harold Meyerson pointed out recently, even the robber barons of the 19th century used European capital to build American industry such as railroads and steel.正如哈羅德邁耶爾遜最近指出，即使是強盜大亨19世紀歐洲的資本用於建立美洲行業，如鐵路和鋼鐵。 The contemporary establishment has taken American assets and turned them into a massive liability.當代設立採取了美國的資產和把它們變成巨大的責任。

Yet a Rasmussen poll taken after the start of the Bush financial crash found that 59% of voters still agreed with Reagan’s inaugural declaration that “government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.” Even 49% of Democrats agree with only 34% demurring.然而，採取拉斯穆森民調開始後，布什的財政崩潰發現， 59 ％的選民仍然同意裡根總統的就職宣言， “政府不是解決我們的問題;政府的問題。 ”即使49 ％的民主黨人同意只有34 ％ demurring 。

This is not Karl Rove’s fault.這不是卡爾羅夫的錯。 This is the result of nearly three decades of indoctrination in anti-social, anti-democratic and economically fallacious absurdities by almost every major instructional institution in the country including Harvard, and the PBS News Hour.這是由於近30年的灌輸在反社會，反民主和經濟荒謬荒唐的幾乎所有的主要教學機構在該國包括哈佛大學，以及公共電視網新聞一小時。 Listening to the post crash coverage I heard words I had not found in the media for years, words like FDR, New Deal, government intervention and Keynes.聽力後墜毀的報導我聽到的話我還沒有發現在媒體多年，像羅斯福的話，新政，政府干預和凱恩斯。 Where had these phrases been all this time?凡有這些詞組被這一切嗎？ Why was it only now respectable to mention Franklin Roosevelt again?為什麼現在才提尊敬的富蘭克林羅斯福呢？

And why has the media and academia given so much encouragement to the myth of free markets while ignoring real things that have gotten worse since Reagan took office?為什麼媒體和學術界提供這麼多鼓勵神話的自由市場，而忽略真正的東西，卻變得更差，因為裡根上台？ Things like:像：

- Minimum wage as % of average wage -最低工資作為％的平均工資
- Real income -實際收入
- Real income bottom 60% of Americans -自下而上的實際收入6 0％的美國人
- Bottom 99% share of total income -底9 9％的份額，總收入
- Income gap between rich and poor -收入貧富差距
- Workers pay as a percent of CEO pay -工人支付所佔的比重C EO薪酬
- Older families covered by pensions -老年人的家庭所涵蓋的養老金
- Workers covered by defined benefit pensions -工人所涵蓋的界定福利養老金
- Annual personal savings rate of families -年度個人儲蓄率家庭
- Elder bankruptcies -上古破產
- Housing foreclosures -房屋贖回
- Child poverty rate -兒童貧困率
- Severe poverty rate -嚴重的貧困率
- Percent of Americans employed -百分比的美國人就業
- Pensions that include health care benefits -退休金，其中包括保健福利
- Number of families without health insurance -數字家庭沒有醫療保險
- Number of public hospitals -數公立醫院
- Number of corporations controlling most media -企業數量控制大多數媒體
- Student loan debt -學生貸款債務
- Increase in wealth of wealthiest ten senators (up 13 times) -增加財富的最富有的1 0個參議員（最多1 3次）
- Percent of workforce unionized -勞動力的百分比工會

Four years before the Bush crash, Michelle Singletary wrote in the Washington Post:四年前，布什崩潰，米歇爾辛格爾特里寫在華盛頓郵報：

“Authors Elizabeth Warren and Amelia Warren Tyagi conclude that earning two incomes doesn’t guarantee financial security: In the past 25 years, the number of families in bankruptcy has increased 400 percent, and housing foreclosures are up 350 percent.” “作者伊麗莎白沃倫和阿米莉亞沃倫提亞吉得出結論，收入兩筆收入並不能保證金融安全：在過去25年中，許多家庭破產增加了4倍，住房贖回增長百分之350 。 ”

You can find these stories if you look hard enough; what you can’t find is these stories being told in more than one or two places at a time during which those in the worst and dumbest establishment continued to peddle the wonders of the free market.您可以找到這些故事如果你看看硬盤不夠;你不能找到這些故事是被告知在超過一個或兩個地方的時間在那些最糟糕的和愚蠢的建立繼續兜售的奇蹟自由市場。

The self-defined best minds of our society have engaged in an act of such reckless negligence that it would have produced a criminal indictment if they had been behind the wheel of a car.自定義最好的頭腦我們的社會已經進行了這種行為的魯莽疏忽，它將產生了刑事起訴，如果他們被後面的四輪汽車。 But because they were only driving the politics and economy of a few hundred million citizens, they get to keep their jobs, their op ed pieces and their preferred place in society.但是，由於他們只是推動政治和經濟的幾個億公民，就會使他們的工作，他們同版作品和他們的首選在社會中的地位。

In the 1960s, a large number of Americans declined to permit such a fraud to continue, choosing instead to not only rebel against those who had done the damage but to remove their podiums, undermine their status, knock down their pedestals, discredit their reputations and hold them in ridicule.在20世紀60年代，大量的美國人拒絕允許這種欺詐繼續下去，而是選擇不僅對那些叛軍誰做了損壞，但取消其登上領獎台，破壞他們的地位，打掉他們的基座，詆毀他們的聲譽和追究他們的嘲笑。

And for awhile America gained breathing room to make things better; for a while we could dream, smile and get things done.一段時間和美國獲得喘息空間，使事情做得更好;了一段時間，我們可以夢想，微笑和做事情。

But it’s far more than just a matter of rounding up the usual suspects.但它遠遠超過只是一個時間的問題搜捕通常的嫌疑人。 If we settle for justice against Paulsen and Bush, for example, then we’ll be no better off than we were in Iraq after getting rid of Saddam.如果我們的司法解決對保爾森和布什，例如，然後我們將沒有更好的比我們在伊拉克擺脫薩達姆。

For any rebellion to succeed, for America to rebuild itself, it must shatter the immunity of the status quo in all its vicious dimensions.對於任何叛亂成功，對美國本身的重建，就必須打破免疫功能的現狀在其所有的惡性程度。 We have three decades of false teaching, journalistic myth and political corruption to disassemble.我們有三十年的虛假教學，新聞神話和政治腐敗，分解。 And we need something to take its place just as the civil rights movement needed freedom schools to replace generations of lies about blacks and whites.我們需要的東西替代它的位置就在民權運動的需要自由所學校以取代一代的謊言，黑人和白人。

America has been deceived, defrauded and defeated by the worst and the dumbest.美國一直蒙蔽，欺騙和失敗的最嚴重的和愚蠢的。 The first step in recovery is to let them know in every way that the party’s over.第一步，恢復，讓他們知道各種方式，黨的結束。
