THE FASCIST STATE AND YOU

If any of the new ominous bills pass, such as John McCain's battlefield US plan or Joe Lieberman's new rat out the terrorist blogger bill, yours truly may suddenly disappear one day. If this blog suddenly stops with no explanation, know that I have been "liberated" to some dark hole. When are people going to stop defending the government/corporations and start demanding real change?

The Tea Party needs to get their heads out their asses and actually join in with the Occupy Wall St movement. The OWS crowd needs to stop behaving like a bunch of spoiled children and DEMAND specific changes. This, and I hate to say this, communist outlook of "can't we all just share," philosophy doesn't work and provably so as the USSR and China have all stopped being communist in nay way shape or form and are now just totalitarian regimes with a sprinkle of capitalism. Sound familiar? We are more like these countries every day and no one wants to say anything about it.

Back in the sixties, Professor Stanley Milgram tried experiments on people to see how far they could be pushed by an authoritative figure to deliver electric shocks to an unwanted individual. 63% complied to "shock" the person they were told to. In reality, the person being shocked was an actor and no real pain was delivered. But the study showed that people will commit horrible offenses if they are told to do so. Recently, the experiment was done again and, like before 73%, shocked the actor when told to do so. However, if a second person was placed in the room delivering shocks to the actor and he then quit, his partner was more likely to follow suit.

This is a stunning psychological look at how sheepish we really are. We will follow orders without thinking of the consequences and we will bow out when others do the same. In other words, most people are content to go with the flow, no matter where it takes them. It would certainly explain the yo yo effect the GOP candidates have had this election season. The Tea Party would seem to be the biggest groups of sycophants alive today. Mind you the OWS movement could also use some leaders to start moving this thing forward, unless continuous pepper spray is to your liking.

Here's some simple demands. 1) End the fed. 2)Remove all money from politics. 3) Ban insider trading within Congress and Wall St buy using harsh penalties for anyone caught (Federal prison with hardcore criminals for many years is a start). 4)End useless oversights like the Drug War, Homeland Security, the TSA, and VIPER teams. 5)Arrests for anybody involved (public or private) who helped cause the financial crisis and lastly 6)demand that all corporations have to use a certain percentage of their profits for wages for all their employees as well as wages tied from the highest to lowest by percentages. This will cause them to give everyone a much needed raise. Our salaries are dropping and no one seems to care. All this talk about having a job is worthless if they don't pay anything and that's where we stand today. It's no so much about jobs but good paying ones and no one is a anymore. The average salary is slightly less than 26,500 dollars down 14,000 from forty years ago. Are things cheaper than they were forty years ago? Hell no. So why are salaries going the other way? Mainly because the flood of women entering the job market in the 70's diluted the job pool to such an extent that companies could pay far less to attract good workers. This is not me being sexist but a fact. Women working was a good idea in theory but has proven to be an abject distaste. As that genie has left the bottle, government should be looking at doing something to get everyone's salaries way up because women barefoot and pregnant is not going to happen nor should it.

We no longer live in democracy and it is becoming more and more apparent every day. Our laws are being rewritten to keep up us in this prison USA. Read Animal Farm and you'll see it is more non-fiction than you would like. The derivative market is trying to move itself onto the back of the FDIC or in other words risky bids are once again being moved onto taxpayer shoulders. There is not enough money in the world to cover these loses so should they go under so does the FDIC and so does all the money in every bank everywhere.

In other news, FOIA documents reveal that Hank Paulson warned executives at his former company of Goldman Sachs that Fannie and Freddie were going to fail and they should get out stat. This is the very definition of insider trading. It's good to be the King.

Newt Gingrich continues to rise, proving my point that the Tea Party are the biggest bunch of sheep out there. The poll numbers for the flavor of the week (Trump, Bachmann, Cain, Perry all have flamed out as people looked closer at them) all betray them as looking for GOP candidates only who do not have their best interests at heart. The next election will inevitably have Tweedledum and Tweedledee running, and if it's Gingrich versus Obama, Obama gets the edge just for not being a fat, blowhard bastard. No way does Gingrich win and god help us all if he does.

Read 1984, Brave New World, or Animal Farm for a real look at what is occurring. Pray that things get better because, as of right now, things look bleak. Start being one of those that stands up and not follows. There's too many of the latter right now. This is how I'm protesting. What's your excuse.
