關係子句

[Alan Greenspan] I have found a flaw, in the model that I perceived

so/ such/ neither/ nor 倒裝句型

is the critical functioning structure that defines how the world works - so to speak.

Ladies and gentlemen, you're tuned in to the Juice News set again

Where we're examining the status of the human experiment

Is it succeeding or will it have to be aborted?

We pursue a prognosis in this Rap News audit

As you know, the world is urgently trying to make sense

of our "global economy" and its arcane trends

As financial temples teeter, the priesthood is scrambling,

to maintain our confidence in markets and banking

after derivatives, quantitative easing, trade imbalances

recession, low GDP, nations close to collapsing and

subprime loans, foreclosed homes and peoples' taxes spent

to bail out too-big-to-fail triple-A banks again.

fear levels rising as a US crash seems imminent,

having smashed the debt ceiling of fourteen trillion.

Despite protests and clashes in Athens' streets

the IMF imposed Structurally Unjust Programmes in Greece

where, in fact, the term 'economy' entered our language

from the Greek 'oikonomia', meaning 'household management'

Well, how are we managing? Theories abound, but in practice,

does anyone actually know what the hell's even happening?

To regain some sanity we take a stock call

and cross to Texas with our first guest, Ron Paul

the economy, what's your diagnosis of it all?

I'm a physician-politician: this is pathological

see, the global economy is chronically ailing

Believe me, the course we've plotted is terminally failing

We're heading towards credit cardiac arrest

with deep depression and trauma across the west.

- Is there a cure? - Sure, more capitalism, not less!

and the market will take care of the rest

See: banker-gods proclaimed: 'fiat pecunia!'

and our economy was inflated, totally mangled

we got 'fiat currencies', and lost the gold standard...

- ...Huh?  - Paper money is a worthless commodity!

It's the biggest fraud in the history of humanity

- All this must cast doubt on the capitalist system;

is it just another pretty theory, like "communism"?

The gospel of free-marketism, Adam Smith's religion

and what we now have is the kabal of "corporatism"

- When state and business lucratively merge?

- Yes, exemplified by the system of the Central Reserve

But we don't need to borrow more to pay their debt

- Uh, thank you Ron, now for another fine mind

on the online frequencies, the director behind "Zeitgeist"

on the line live, documentary film-maker, Peter Joseph

- Thank you, Robert, for allowing me to speak this moment

We need a sweet opus, a marimba line to keep us focused

in a system that's intrinsically, inherently flawed:

the whole monetary paradigm is the single cause

The economy isn't "broken", it doesn't need "fixing"

Money isn't real, interest and debt are not real

our whole economy has been set up to steal!

- So you don't agree with Congressman Ron Paul

that we need a fiscal solution to avert a long fall?

- The illusion that these debts can be served

by using money, which creates more debt, is frankly absurd

It's a way of maintaining division and slavery

When we could attain abundance and abolish scarcity

- Well, we need to create jobs, live within our means.

Cut wasteful healthcare, and welfare schemes,

it seems yours is just another socialist vision

- The Zeitgeist Movement eschews such "isms":

- tell us then, is it just rhetoric or would you really end the Fed?

- Well, I wouldn't END the fed, that's not quite my position

What I'd do is open it up to competition...

- Obsolete! I say abolish all competition:

that's the evolution my movement is triggering

- Evolution's just a theory, we need the full picture

believe me, we need to have faith in a sound scripture

- This is the real Bible: Zeitgeist Moving Forward,

- What's that, some kind of Austrian Gay Porno?

- Ask your boyfriend Bruno  - you pissant!

- Geriatric  - Talk to the invisible hand!

- Uh, ok, thank you for your sage contributions

and brave attempts to alleviate our confusion

online, you've both inspired and led movements,

jogging our memories, revealing hidden truths and,

in sooth, you both hold enlightening views

but time's running out; do you have a practical solution?

- Indeed, I believe i have seen a prospect

I introduce Jaque Fresco; our era's prophet,

Whose shiny technology could cease this conflict and...

- Shut up, Peter, I'm the centrepiece of the Venus Project

The economy? I've watched our problems grow

and my attitude's the same: This Shit's Got to Go!

what we need are resource-based economies

With futuristic circular cities, supervised by a super computer
