The Godly Dollar: Estate Debate($)

[Abishai100]

This is a modernism-consciousness exchange between Shiva (Hindu god of destruction) and Marvel Comics' Spider-Woman (a fictional superheroine with the ability to shoot cobwebs and venom and exhibit great agility and physical prowess).

Shiva symbolizes self-control, while Spider-Woman symbolizes wit and compassion.

This mock-exchange is about traffic-intelligence and is inspired by The Fifth Estate and K-PAX.

Cheers,

SPIDER-WOMAN: Men are too vain about Wall Street...
SHIVA: Yet, you prowl around like a vigilante caring about America!
SPIDER-WOMAN: I have to seek reform the best way I can.
SHIVA: Spoken like a true philosopher of Apologetics.
SPIDER-WOMAN: Don't be smug; I worry about human vice.
SHIVA: Worry is not the same as evaluation...
SPIDER-WOMAN: Subjectivity is as complicated as objectivity.
SHIVA: Maybe you're right; but objectivity must come first!
SPIDER-WOMAN: I'm merely trying to be objective about being subjective.
SHIVA: I concede your point, but how can we 'measure' subjectivity?
SPIDER-WOMAN: It's truly challenging in a capitalism/commerce system.
SHIVA: Why do you think that is?
SPIDER-WOMAN: Consumerism makes for convenience-minded contracts.
SHIVA: Yes, Napster, Microsoft, McDonald's, and eBay all follow 'convenience-tracks.'
SPIDER-WOMAN: It's hard to make bubble-gum seem like pianos.
SHIVA: Science-fiction is a great solution to the problem of 'pedestrian cynicism.'
SPIDER-WOMAN: I think you're right; sci-fi tales symbolize intelligence 'evaluation.'
SHIVA: If we look at economics courses at Yale University, we find insightful views.
SPIDER-WOMAN: Yes, and you can find Yale curricula-info on the World Wide Web!
SHIVA: Will convenience-gauged access to information/networks facilitate democracy?
SPIDER-WOMAN: That's really what the whole WikiLeaks drama/issue was about!
SHIVA: Internet-hackers are the new terrorists, and social leaders have to govern toys.
SPIDER-WOMAN: Maybe a Yale professor (perhaps female!) will evaluate dollar-vice.
SHIVA: I can vouch for human daydreams, but not for piracy-fantasies.
SPIDER-WOMAN: Let's agree that Microsoft/Metropolis self-destructs!
