Our
Country's success relies on the participation of the majority of those
who live, vote, influence, teach, and control others here.
The
majority is required to participate in the major elements of the things
that have allowed our republic to remain intact until this point
("Intact" is debatable). Perfection is not required but majority participation IS required. What do the majority need to participate in?
Well, I'm glad ya axe me.
Our
economic system - Capitalism, Is it perfect? No. We have already
established that nothing is perfect. Yes, you have rich people. You
have good and bad rich people. You've probably heard the term Crony
Capitalism. Toss it in the trash - If you don't like Crony Capitalism,
then instead of adopting Socialism/Communism, demand a Federal
Department of Justice that actually performs their functions competently
and puts these people in prison. Ask yourself why these major criminals don't end up in prison. Is it because they are hard to catch? Yes? So, your saying the federal government is incompetent? No? Ok, so then you must be saying that the federal government condone such activity...
(By
the way, if you don't like crony capitalism, how do you feel about
michele obama's friend being awarded a no bid contract to create a
totally non-working website for obamacare that cost us 3/4's of a
BILLION dollars, that was trashed in its entirety because it was such a
piece of shit. I know about this stuff. My boss and I (two of us)
created an intra-company website for our outside sales reps to use that
had 1000 time more functionality and was/is totally secure in the same 2
year amount of time. Guess what We were paid... Go on.... Less than 250k for a secure website with 1000 times the functionality and security of the obamacare site.. Mind boggling isn't it..)
Seriously
folks. michele's friend and of course kickbacks for the obama's of
3/4's of a Billion $$ for Nothing. Not a fricken thing. Add in 500 mil
(half a Billion) to Solyndra who went bankrupt 2 weeks after barry gave
them the money (Think the obama's got any of that?) Add in all the deals thatwe never even were appraised of. Geeezus.
Good
God Y'all - Do you really think the opposite of crony capitalism is a
theft and graft free environment? No, it's the complete opposite !
Capitalism
ensures you get the best product and service at the lowest price.
Competition makes that happen. If you have a stick up your ass because
there are rich people, let's just say that if Bill Gates didn't have 35
Billion, YOU would not have a single extra nickel in your pocket. OK?
Don't like it, go be an entrepreneur and make your own money. Honestly
- You're 30 years old and all you've learned how to do is masturbate
and you think you should have a life that is as good as people who have
obtained Masters Degrees in very complicated subjects ?? What?
Bill
of Rights. Go read and understand it. If you seriously want to run
that through the shredder, you are breathtakingly stupid. You declare
that you trust the government implicitly to protect your personal
liberties. Do you? Here's your sanity check. The government routinely
passes laws that apply to you but not to them. For example -
obamacare. If obamacare was so good why do Congress and other federal
officials avoid it for themselves like the plague? You're getting this
right? Do I need to come to your house and slpain it to you forcefully
or with candies and bedtime stories?
I will if I have to.
You
live in the greatest country on Earth that has ever been. But if you
don't demand Capitalism and all the elements of the Bill of Rights, then
you are going to flush yourselves down the toilet and end up slaves to
whatever pieces of shit end up in positions of control in federal and
state government. Honestly, are you really this stupid?
Sadly, yes, Kid. Many if not most of our fellow Americans are dumber than a bag of hammers. They don't get it, and never will until they wind up in chains. And even then, they won't get it.
ReplyDeleteFredd, They will both not get it and blame is on the right.

FT, I like this one.
DeleteAbsolutely to the point kid. This country really has managed the art of distraction.
ReplyDeleteDon't look at your unaffordable healthcare costs, look at the poor women who can't get free birthcontrol or calling an abortion clinic a place for women's healthcare.
I know both sides do it but the left has mastered the art of distraction/deception
Lisa, Thank y0ou and exactly right. (or is it left? :)
DeleteCrony-Capitalism walks arm in arm and works hand-in glove with Marxian-Progressivie-Socialist -Statism.
ReplyDeleteCrony Capitalism is NOT Capitalism it is a kind of de facto oligarchy –– or exclusive Billionaire's Club, if you prefer.
Congress and the president do NOT work for us or to our benefit, BECAUSE the Oligarchs (Crony Capitalists) –– many of whom are not even U.S. Citizens –– control the money supply and have the power to devalue any nation's currency at will. They also control the world supply of raw materials. These ultra-rich, ultra-powerful creatures have literally BOUGHT the U.S. Congress, the Presidency, and very probably most of the members of SCOTUS by now.
What chance have We the People against such such a formidable Power Bloc?
I can't answer that, but I wrote some verse that I think explains how all this came to be pretty well. I Know there aren't many fans of poetry in the parts, but I'll share it anyway in the next post –– as soon as I can find it –– in hope that someone will "get it," and maybe discuss the merits of the case I try to present. Maybe we can get our heads together and try to improve the way we look at these things.
CHEERS!
MONEY equals POWER, and as we all should know by now, POWER CORRUPTS.
FT, I'm down with that. Absolutely. What can we do about it though? Nada. Have a good time, try to increase finance while avoiding being stepped on by some sociopathic elephant.
Delete___ SITUATION EXPLANATION ____
ReplyDeleteOnce "The Rich" have been unseated
ALL of us will be defeated,
'Cause once "The Rich" have been destroyed,
Naught will be left, except a Void ––
A Bottomless Pit –– A Big Black Hole
Where everyone lives on the Dole,
And I don't mean ol' RINO Bob,
Who’s just a lackey to Those Who Rob.
I'm talkin 'bout The Oligarchs,
Whose money once created parks
And enhanced universities,
Built hospitals to fight disease,
Palaces where Opera's housed ––
Places at which no one's groused,
Libraries and Railroad Stations
Fit for endless celebrations,
Until that old New Deal was struck.
That changed the rules and killed Good Luck.
Since then "The Rich," forced to connive
To find a way they might survive,
Have joined with Statists to despise,
Deter, discourage those who'd rise.
We call it Crony Capitalism,
And it has caused the mammoth schism
Yawning now twixt rich and poor,
'Cause we let Marxists in the door.
COMMUNISM KILLS.
IT CANNOT CURE OUR ILLS!
TO STOP OUR DEVOLUTION
WE MAY NEED A REVOLUTION.

The Progressives worked to destroy the privilege earned by "The Rich." In order to survive and maintain their position, "The RIch" were literally FORCED to join WITH the government. That merger caused the Unholy Power Alliance that has been oppressing us ordinary citizens since the 1930's. Most have been been unaware of this, and many still don't understand that "A Government Big Enough to Give You Everything You Need is Big Enough to Rob You of EVerything You Have."
Government has been posing as SANTA CLAUS ever since The New Deal was struck. I don't think it's just a coincidence that SANTA is an acronym for SATAN, do you?
Revolution is impossible now. They have weapons which a militia formed from within cannot defeat. Unless we all pitch in on a fully stocked Ohio Class Submarine(s) and space weapon countermeasures.
DeleteThen maybe.
Then why not just admit defeat, meekly surrender all our weapons to Big Brother, admit we are slaves, abandon Hope, and resign ourselves to spending Eternity in Hell?

Delete____________ Our Debt Threats ____________
ReplyDeleteO, Christ, why can’t we hear it through the din?
Under what extreme conditions might we learn?
Rape invited’s wicked, though we’re in
Denial that our fate we richly earn.
Everyone must someday realize
Beating life can’t be. We’re bound to crash.
The Law of Averages whittles down to size.
The brightness of Ascent soon feels the lash
Held by hidden Masters of Deceit ––
Rapacious, ruthless, fearful and despotic ––
Each a perfect model of conceit ––
A joyless soul, pathetic and neurotic.
To be at the beck and call of godless knaves
Strengthens faith that none but Jesus saves.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

DeleteThe whole tipping point debate returns except will this time republicans actually come out an vote against whomever is the democrat candidate? Time will tell.
ReplyDeleteCube, exactly. If they don't then they deserve every measure of democrat torture that comes their way.
DeleteOff topic: Monday would've been Zappa's 75th birthday.
ReplyDeleteIt can't happen here...
DeleteBut it did.
Cube, Great Googly Moogly!
DeleteEd, It sure as hell did happen. I am reminded of the main character of Kurt Vonneguts novel "Breakfast of Champions" where he, near the end of he story, meets up with Kilgore Trout who informs him that every being on the planet beside him are robots, and they are controlled to do things purely to see how he will react.
