Dear History Students,
Today we will look back at a small part of the early 21st Century in our study of the Disintegrated States of Corporate America (DSCA).
As you will recall,
the height of American technological advancement
in the 1980's was actually a foreshadowing of its
imminent demise.
Once the Americans adopted computer technology,
they stopped doing things known as "reading" and "thinking".
They gave over their brains to popularity polls, and
to text-free me-Tube videos.
There was no need anymore to read the prime directives
of the US Constitution.
Feckless talking heads would tell the masses what the Nine
Black Robed Ones had declared and the no longer literate
would accept it as gospel.
Take for example the written mandate in the Constitution
for the American Congress to write the laws regarding
how best to "secure" for American inventors,
the exclusive rights to "their" discoveries.
Article 1, Section 1.
All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
... Section 8. The Congress shall have power ...
To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries;
Well, it was in an acid-trip decision known as Alice
that the Nine Black Robed Ones (a.k.a. SCOTUS) declared
they knew better than all others what the American inventor
had "truly" invented and how it was "drawn"
to mere "abstraction".
SCOTUS declared by fiat that inventing was
no more than mere "coding" over weekend's time
of simpleton "ideas" that called for a "generic computer"
and utterance of magic words, "just do it".
No one dared challenge their holy words.
To do so would be irreverent.
And might get your head chopped off if ever you needed a last minute stay from SCOTUS just before the Constitution-following government tested some of its new execution chemicals on you following conviction by a kangaroo court peopled by a Corporations-are-persons jury.
Word got out.
Soon fewer and fewer inventors disclosed their inventions.
Why bother when it can be snuffed out by fiat declaration of abstractionism?
Eventually America (DCSA) became a disintegrated 3rd world mess, as well you know dear history students.
