Dereliction. Homelessness. All on the rise in the islands. Petty crime has become commonplace and brazen. Begging for money and cigarettes is now routine. Lapsing into a coma at anytime and anyplace is normal. So many new faces, too. Where did they come from?
The “race to the bottom” by the central bank of empire was punctuated by another interest rate cut today, just another step toward NIRP. There will be many more new faces of dereliction on the streets soon. Then, when the global recession hits ... booyah!
An unrealistic option was recently considered. The crux of the plan was the rental of a studio apartment in the Chinatown ghetto. Then, a part-time wage slave job, most likely at the gym in town, would be secured for procuring some “spare change.” However, the plan was exposed as ludicrous given the remaining “good years.”
Another option is now being entertained ... becoming one of the street homeless. Yes, actually living and sleeping on the sidewalks of Makiki perhaps. And, why not? There is more in common with the street homeless than the faux capitalists (read: wage slaves). If you can’t beat ‘em, then join ‘em. And, who really needs an expensive cargo van camper conversion (i.e., homeless motorhome)? Heck, that may be the best plan to date!
Update: The Quest/Medicaid coverage has been terminated effective October 31st as expected. All necessary appointments have been or will be fulfilled by then. One medical appointment remains in December, subject to the huge Medicare copayment.
