Guyana's motto "One People, One Nation, One Destiny" (like almost every other "national" motto resists logocentrism). USA's double de facto motto (E pluribus unum/In God We Trust) seems "problematically attractive" and, perhaps, therein lies THE AMERICAN DREAM, the only "universal" dream that draws in not ONLY capitalists but also Marxists (with many of the latter "acting" as "progressives" during the day, but living "bourgee" life nightly (rather than the "proletarian" life. My dear sistahs and brothas of whole wide/world, all the battles of realities and idealities apparently point toward one inescapable double question: "God" as real?/And the devil as real? Note that deciding NOT to decide persists as a decision (a gnawing decision?). I cannot dream 4U because I don't have your "head" and vice versa. Knowledge AIN'T inherent in the signifiers ….
