Regardless of who we put in government, with very few exceptions, they are purchased by the moneyed interests. How could we expect it to be otherwise? We humans are trained from childhood to perform tasks for money. This pervasive and incessant brainwashing steers our lives. It is exactly what the people that control the money want. By controlling the money, they control us. For as long as we accept their money, we are their slaves. They own us.
What wouldn't you do for money? Would you make a military career out of serving the sociopathic masters in their quest for world domination? Millions of us do. Would you contribute your labor and brainpower to companies building weapon systems used to murder other humans in distant lands? Millions of us do. Would you work for government? Millions of us do. Would you give a hefty portion of your earnings (known as taxes) to those running this slave market? Nearly all of us do.
Does anyone see the problem here?
Not long after posting this blog, I read this. More and more of us are waking up to the reality behind the facade. Spread the word - we're being conned.
ReplyDeleteBush got away with it. So did Obama. Getting away with murder is standard operating procedure now. Nixon got away with it even way back then. All he lost was showing up at the office. All the other perks he kept. And that's not a punishment.
ReplyDeleteElection day is a little more than three weeks away. A U.S. president will be selected. I can tell you with near certainty who will lose this election.
We will.
I heard the BIG LIE again yesterday -- "If you vote third party, you're throwing away your vote."
ReplyDeleteI thought for a second, and then said, "Actually, if you vote for Obama OR Romney, you're throwing away your vote."
Hugh, I thought I had lost track of you until I saw your avatar next to Temy Beal's blog. I'm so glad to see that you're still fighting the good fight. My father, may he rest in peace, always said that there have been no real elections in this country since JFK. The most obvious examples were the two GWB elections, which were forced to show some of the behind the scenes machinations, i.e., the case of the "hanging chads" in Florida and the never-ending re-count, then the election being "decided" by the supreme court.
ReplyDeleteOn one of your other recent blogs, you talked about standing at attention, saying the pledge of allegiance every morning at school. I was subjected to the same indoctrination, but I have to say that the words and their repetition were, for me, nothing more than a chance for my mind to wander off to something more personally meaningful. Organized fundamentalist religion was more damaging to me personally, but they both served the same purpose. Serfdom, fear, mental confusion, cognitive dissonance and isolation. A lifetime of isolation and solitude has been the price I've paid for my lack of brainwashing. Perhaps it's been the same for you.
Good to hear from you, Carla! You are a voice from MySpace that I truly miss. Thanks for your comment, and a very good comment as usual from you.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's clear to me that there have been no real elections during my lifetime, and no legitimate government either. But I was brainwashed for the longest time not to notice. Those days are over, and I will continue to spread what I have learned until my time here is up.
