Not So Pure Michigan

There are moments where I am proud that there are a few voices of reason left to remind us of what it is supposed to mean to be an American.
Poor people including myself have been hosed by a corporate-military complex that not only doesn’t represent the people of the United States but actively works to destroy us. Pure Capitalism is not our friend, nor is the Pentagon, the Neocon Nazis or evangelicalism.
If we were sticking to the values of the founding fathers, then people like you or I would be very prosperous today. Jefferson thought we needed a bloody revolution every 20 years or so to remind us about the cost of freedom. I think we did pretty well for about 200 years. If you look at things from 1976-2010 you can see a real decline in the value system put in place by those founding fathers. It angers me so much to hear those tea partiers and Glenn Beck types running their mouths about the Constitution and the founding fathers when they haven’t read the Constitution or anything concerning the founding fathers. Read biographies on John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. These two were on opposite ends of the political spectrum in their days and yet the views of either man would be considered very liberal by today’s standards. The Constitution isn’t all that easy to understand, but with a good biography of the major authors you get a much clearer picture of the intent behind the words. The Bill of Rights is the most important section in my opinion and those are amendments! No revolution can be nor should be total. However, it must be decisive and clear of purpose. The current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan don’t represent the majority of people in this country and the ramifications are obvious to all who are seeking employment opportunities. 9/11 is what it is, a yellow flag operation, used by the military-industrial complex that currently runs this country to keep people distracted. The owners of this country made sure that the masses were ignorant and divided. As long as education is eroded, ethics is a lost art, bread and circuses are plentiful and propaganda experts can wave the flags of patriotism and ethnic distrust while mixing in a dash of widespread joblessness and poverty there will be no revolution. They were very careful NOT to have a draft with these wars. Let the poor fight the war! As the emperor is well known for saying, “everything is going as I had foreseen” Hitler once said, "the masses will believe a big lie much better than a small one". He also understood the power of propaganda and the danger of the academic elites. Our owners learned quite a bit from him. What threw most colonists over the edge and into the category of rebel was having troops occupying their homes. If it ever gets to the point where the military turns on its own people, then there will be rebellion. The odds will be as great as they were against the British because the military’s weapons make the average American look like an untrained Taliban guerilla. They don’t fear how many guns we have, what good is a pistol or even an automatic rifle against a predator drone, tanks, gunships and mercenaries. That is what revolution would mean. Mass round ups, religious organizations turning in people who are not conformists, leveling of liberal institutions and neighborhoods, the only saving grace would be if the average soldier stays loyal to American citizens instead of the government. It’s what makes the use of Blackwater so extremely dangerous. Blackwater has allegiance to no citizen. The corporations control the government through campaign contributions, favors and lobbying. They owe allegiance only to their own profit margin and they don’t care if the US goes up in flames or not, as long as they get what they want. All of the military aggression we’ve seen since Vietnam is about making corporations rich. Corporations having citizen rights---that was the one part of government that the neocons had to be patient about. What was sad, was how easily the Democrats let them have what they wanted. Set up a few really bad activist judges on the Supreme Court, guys in your back pocket who will interpret the Constitution to say that white is black and black is white and you are all set, with no legal recourse. Again the parallels to Nazi Germany…Hitler re-wrote the German laws to say that everything he was doing was legal. The courts went along with it because it was the law, no longer interpreting what is right, but instead just nodding approval of whatever the current law codes said according to Hitler. Watch the Nuremberg Trials if you’ve never seen it. Gary Gnu was first in the concept of No Gnews is Good Gnews. Glenn Beck learned everything he knows from riding on a one way ticket to the Great Space Coaster. Finally a game that represents life in the great State of Michigan! Adaptable for other hostile environments around the world! |
