LADY GAGA: WALL STREET SEX SHOW

I saw part of a Lady Gaga video on Cable TV the other night, and I don't think she's a lady at all.

She was dancing around in an outrageously high-cut outfit showing most of her anatomy up to her waist and singing, "I want to take a ride on your disco stick."

Disco stick? Please.

It was disgusting. We all know that sex sells, in this oddly Puritanical country. But I think it has a deeper purpose here. She's a shill for corporate America, an opiate for the masses.

While the high-priced goons on Wall Street and the healthcare CEOs make millions, the entertainment "industry" clouds the minds of the masses with blatant sex shows.

As Leonard Cohen sang in one song, "One thing, of this you can be sure, / the rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor."

That's what's going on. Titillate the suckers and take their money. While they are slobbering and drooling over sexy pictures on their boob tubes (pun intended), they won't know the difference.

It's all a carnival show, and Lady Gaga is a big attraction. The rest of us are suckers. Welcome to sucker-land, where Lady Gaga is the queen.
