It never ceases to amaze me that there are those among us who are able
to dress themselves, feed themselves, stand upright and utter
word-like sounds, and pass for Human. That is, until they encounter a
person with a darker skin. Then that seemingly decent person turns
into a slobbering, snarling, unreasoning wild animal.
If, indeed they were enraged wild animals, I'd know exactly what to do
with them. But since they still give the outward appearance of being
human, I try to use reason and understanding.
Looking over the past 7 plus years, that is exactly the error Barak
Obama made in believing he could "compromise" with a pack of mad dogs.
When a majority of elected leaders turn on the leader of the pack
because of his heritage, and since they still appear to be part of the
human race, the only solution, the only way to "reason" with them is
to turn them out of office.
If, as polls indicate, the vast majority of Americans disagree with
many of the proposals sent to the Senate floor, then they hold the
solution in their ballots. And if the electoral districts are so
manipulated that these people cannot make their wishes known, then the
only solution left is to turn out the entire corrupt system.
In fact, Race and Color are only a distraction. Of course they are
real concerns, but they are not what is wrong with the System. They
are, in fact, caused in great part by the existing System. Color is
important, however. Green. Green is the color barrier that is
ruining our once happy little Oligarchy.
And with Green comes the other "G" word. Greed.
From the top down, through every state and every subdivision of
government and private sector, the same Master rules. Profit. Profit
at all cost. Uncontrolled desire for Profit leads to the exploitation
of the nation's people.
If we cannot see that we are being destroyed by greed, we have only to
look to the upcoming presidential election. Which of the two dominant
political parties represents the Working Class, the majority of
Americans?
If you are having some difficulty picking one over the other, it is
because neither party is interested in the Working Class, besides
conning them out of their vote.
And to ensure the vote comes out, "Right", many clever tricks have
been developed to guarantee the results.
The Masses have been effectively disenfranchised
And one of the tools used to keep the working class at each others
throats is Racial Prejudice. Even as we work to unseat the entrenched
Establishment Pawns, we need to fight to unite all of the working
class. We need to put an end to private prisons, release the
thousands of slaves being held captive for minor irregularities under
the Master's Law. We need to reclaim our public schools and staff
them with enough teachers that education will come ahead of simply
monitoring over sized classes. We need to fight to remove the
exploitation of our college students, removing the chains of debt that
will hold them captive through most of their productive years. We
need to insist on bringing our troops home, closing up those military
basis that are scattered about the Globe, established to protect the
interests of the American Corporate Empire, not those of the American
Working Class. We must raise our Health Care to the level of a Right,
not a Privilege. We need Laws made by the working class, and courts
that are accessible to people of meager means. We need to respect and
care for the needs of our elders. These are the people who did their
best to make a better life for us. And we need to begin insisting
that those who have been stealing our labor and our possessions and
our dignity, pay the price for their greedy grubbing. And most of
all, we need to educate ourselves, and work toward the day when any
person of any color or of any sexual orientation can look you in the
eye and call you their brother/sister, and you can see them as your
equal.
So which candidate is caring one whit for any of that? Hillary?
Donald? Good luck if you think you have a choice in this rigged
election.
