Just one man's opinion

Hi All Opinionated People Everywhere!


Did you ever read Howard Zinn's, "A People's History of the United
States"? In the first chapter he quotes from the notes and diary of
Christopher Columbus, and others, telling of how the Bishops had the
local chieftains strung up above piles of fire wood. They were told
that they could accept the Lord and burn to death and go to Heaven, or
refuse and burn to death and go to Hell.
"But," my Christian friends admonish me, "that was then and this is
now". And I suppose that they have a point. It is no longer, just
the Christian Thing to do, it is the driving force behind the entire
approach to the Law and Order World of the American Oligarchy. Or if
you pleas, the American Corporate Empire(ACE). As it struggles to
become the International Corporate Empire(ICE) the ACE has refined
that early use of pain, suffering and agonizing death as its number
one deterrent in its battle for control over the Working Classes
minds. And it appears that presently the Oligarchy and its "Hanger
ons" are winning the day. Around the Globe, violence as a deterrent
is wiping out thousands of people the Oligarchy feels are of no value.
Here in America, the Oligarchy is more selective regarding who they
murder, and so we have a growing Private Prison Industry, housing the
largest incarcerated population of any nation on Earth.
The list of proposed punishments and tortures is too long to post
here, but I will mention the rapid closure of Women's Clinics across
the nation. All in the name of saving the precious lives of unborn
fetus'. Women's well being is being sacrificed in order to bring all
the new little babies into a world where they will have the privilege
of growing up and becoming cannon fodder for the War Machine of the
Oligarchy. Or they may end up living in back alleys and earning a
meager living as prostitutes. They will be gobbled up by the Drug
Lords. They will be driven away from the safe places, into the
horrors of the ghettos.
And all the while we will be told that the Swamp is being drained, and
we are on the road back to when America was Truly Great.

"Oh here's to Donald Trump. A mighty man is he.
His Tweets go out across the Land, from Sea to shining Sea.
He tells us all the real truth, the truth that's really true.
He says the Media tells us lies, and mixes witches brew.
He promises that by getting tough, we'll be a safer nation.
and safe we'll be, as he builds his walls, for our incarceration.
