INSATIABILITY
INSATIABILITY
When insatiable people meet, there is bound to be conflict between them, however much there may be to eat.
That is the nature of being insatiable, never sated, never satisfied nor filled.
As such, "insatiability" is a disease, a sickness, a tapeworm, and an unruly compulsive-disorder, that attacks like a virus those, & that, it consumes as its hosts, before, like boll-weevils, moving on to new, raw cotton bolls.
In America, material possessions and massive financial wherewithal, is its major viral obsession, wherein there is never enough to "eat", despite plenty's presence via historical, cultural, legal: "white" privilege laws, customs, taxes: state, federal, local.
But, for the presence of African Americans' amazing creative, redemptive, productive, and reproductive capacities, that has created so much of America's wealth, for free, or at huge discounts from their actual fair market value, American money mavens would have long since attacked and consumed each other, as they almost did in the Civil War, which Africans repulsed!
