Political Thinking differs from Economic Thinking. They are not the same.
Political thinking differs from Economic thinking. They are not the same and each has its goal, and a different 'means' of achieving that goal and a different 'result' from having achieved it. Political thinking is about 'Equality and Freedom'; Economic thinking is about 'more and more of the same'(Profits and Money). Economic activity and thinking achieves its goal by 'repetition' and by 'growing larger and larger'. Economic activity 'grows' when the 'profits and money' increases proportionately and the results grow 'larger and larger'. These results have been transformed into 'Corporate Persons' and are protected by the Constitution. Government 'protects' the economy and gives it a 'Social Space' within which to grow. Political Thinking doesn't 'create' anything; it protects 'something' that all the Real People already have when they are born into a Democracy. Those 'Real People' grant to the Top of the Governmental structure the 'Political Power' to Govern. Only Government has Power; the economy does not have political Power, it has influence, but that is 'not Political Power'. An economy cannot Govern; it only creates 'more and more of the same'; Viz., 'Profits' and 'Money' and 'Largeness'. An economy is an important part of every Nation or Government. But, don't kid yourself: it cannot Govern. If we grant to the 'economy' the 'Power to Govern', we immediately grant it to a "Plutocracy", or, at least to an "Oligarchy". No, Government can only function with 'Equality and Freedom': a 'Something' that every real Individual has when s/he is born into a Governmental Structure. Every 'Real Individual' is born 'Equal and Free'. No Human Being is 'created' by the Constitution. But, S/he must be protected by the Constitution; after all, 'S/he' are the ones who gave the Top of Government 'political Power'. The only way human beings can be protected by a Constitution is by 'Political Thinking', not Economic thinking, but then Political Thinking is a kind of Thinking characteristic of Real States-Persons, not 'politically correct Politicians' and certainly, not CEO's from the Economy. Where are the States-Persons?
