What has happened to our once great country? When did we as a society make the decision that we would abandon free market principals and common sense, in favor of a model of economic activity that benefits a very few at the expense of the many?
The feudal Kings, Queens and lords would be jealous, as WE did this to ourselves willingly!
Every day it amazes me, how so many are so oblivious to the fact that our economic and government systems are NOT working, at least NOT for the majority of people. While there are some who are benefiting immensely from the corruption and misplaced priorities, MOST are not. The numbers and statistics bear this out.
Most people know they are angry, and rightly so, they just don't know where to focus their anger. Thus they scream at the government, and ABOUT the government, actually wishing to abolish the very entity and policies which would help them and which are their only defense, in favor of ideas and entities which do NOT have their best interests at heart!
Any economic system and ANY government system, needs to work for the majority of the people in order to be successful. THAT is the point of any economic theory or any political theory. To provide for the majority of people and to allocate resources most effectively and efficiently.
It's become all too apparent than there are far TOO many people, who don't realize the point of a democratically elected government. NOR do these same, deluded folks, realize the need for a strong and powerful entity to be on their side. They don't seem to realize, that without this entity they would be serfs, and nothing more.
Over the last 30 years, actual income and purchasing power for the majority of people has fallen...whether they realize it or not, especially after adjusting for inflation. The consumer economy has been being fueled by credit, not actual tangible money. The majority of people have seen their share of the pie shrink, will a very small minority having seen their share grow exponentially.
Yet with all the obvious data in front of them, most people actually support the very large multi national corporations who are enslaving them and allowing them to become indentured servants.
It's truly amazing!
So, with all this in mind, it is my suggestion that, "WE, THE PEOPLE" take our country back. Take it back from the robber barons and multi national corporations. Take it back from those shysters who have sold the American public a bill of goods that wasn't worth the paper it was printed on.
It won't be easy, but it IS doable. Quit spending your money at their establishments, buy your goods from small locally owned and operated vendors. Take your money out of their banks. COMPLAIN and COMPLAIN loudly and everywhere, when YOU receive bad service or products for your hard earned dollar. DON'T remain apathetic. TAKE control. The very forces that enslave YOU , need YOU...even IF they don't realize it. REMEMBER they need YOU more than YOU need them. They have just brainwashed us all into THINKING we need them. They can only control US and take advantage of US if we let them!
BTW....The United States when abbreviated is US...that means YOU, me and everyone...we are US, we are the US and as Benjamin Franklin so eloquently said "".We must, indeed, all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately. ...".
