[What is the meaning of each word?
Affordability is not determined by the consumer, but by a federal bureaucracy.
Care is not defined by the consumer, but by a faceless bureaucracy.
No one else is to be held responsible. No one else is to exercise freedom.
Our federal bureaucracy, who art in Washington, hallowed be thy name.]
[The term “words” points to a new plane of awareness.
Post-religious (enlightenment) religions alchemically fuse words to sin and thoughts to law.
Consider the misleading title of a purely Progressive law: The Affordable Care Act.
Each word misleads.]

[Ah, savor the postmodern alchemy of words.
Words stand in contrast to responsibilities. Yet, both are obligations.]
[But, aren’t obligations identical to responsibilities?
Yes and no.
Yes, responsibilities are obligations.
No, obligations are also identical to empty promises.]
[But, aren’t obligations identical to responsibilities?
Yes and no.
Yes, responsibilities are obligations.
No, obligations are also identical to empty promises.]
[The modern opposition between ‘obligation’ and ‘exercises of the heart’ erodes.
Modern “freedom” is defined as the lack of responsibility.
This definition denies the pre-modern view that ‘’freedom’ was ‘the capacity to create and maintain responsibilities’.]
[Following to Carl Jung, late moderns have shown themselves ready to abandon actuality, in favor the alchemy of postmodern fashions.
These fashions dissolve the facticity supporting the mythos and the logos of science itself. ]
[For example, moderns could not believe in or comprehend the medieval practices of alchemy, a pre-modern inquiry that confounded all three categories of existence.
Perhaps, the first modern to realize that ‘alchemy was not ridiculous’ was Carl Jung. However, he could not quite figure out the categories of existence indicated by these fusions of mystical hints, recipes and images.]

[The nested form allows us to see relations within a text. It is sort of like alchemy.
In contrast, moderns are blind to relations. Moderns programmatically reconfigure normal context and possibility into actuality. The all-embracing assumption of Modernism is: Actuality is all there is.]
