Adam Smiths non-existent hand

"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."





Adams Smiths hand may be invisible but when banks are allowed to regulate themselves, it is non existent. The fascist who love to quote this haven't read the whole book and don't realize others exist. They say it's lonely on top but when you think you've made it there all by yourself you are not only wrong but in the vanguard of greedy destruction and human suffering. To "make it" on wall street is to be a selfish, uncaring, vulgar, sordid, and a scoundrel lacking anything resembling empathy. These blackguarding miscreants do it  impunity, immunity, and with the full support of the ignorant serf masses who actually believe that if they toil just long, just hard enough they too will join the Machiavellians in their sovereign gated communities, immune from the pesky rules the lowly taught unwashed masses are plagued by, like financial worry, TSA, law enforcement, and taxes. The sheeple willingly control their own. The police officer believes he is making a difference and earning a nod from the rich while he beats, tazzes, and arrests another poverty stricken minority for yet another victimless crime.  They really don't see the destruction and long term cost of mass arresting petty crimes like  pot possession, impaired driving, driving while license suspended and other victimless crimes while allowing bankers and hedge fund managers to literally kill, impoverish, and inflict suffrage on billions of their fellow humans. They drive up the cost of everything with their gas speculation while continuing to drag down the purchasing power of the dollar. They apply Band-Aids to the spurting arterial bleed that is our  Darwinian society.  They  think fuck the poor and working classes, send them to church and have them breed. If they're too stupid to realize they're slaves, fuck'em.


Out of Tears

Free man of his chains and he will beg you to put them back on for security.


I use to think people want to be informed, if they only knew, just inform them, but this is not how the average American is. The job of dumbing down, indoctrinating, obedience, and inhibiting curiosity is complete, the people have learned to love their chains. They think nothing wrong with thinking working 70 hours a week toiling while having no insurance, pension, or retirement while barely making ends meet is normal. In the last year something has changed, there is no hope in their eyes, they are giving up.



I can't sit back and do nothing anymore. I am going to write, I will start pouring the foundation today and hope it does some good because like most of you, I'm out of tears.

Swimming in the tears of the poor

In 1776 a young Thomas Paine wrote "Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not YET sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason". The pamphlet was " common sense" and helped spark the American revolution. How "the people" repaid this man especially at the end of his life is another story. I seem to catch on much quicker than others so forgive me if you do not yet agree with the following:

This country is broken and moving toward fascism. We don't need a change in government we need a change of government. When dissent is stifled, arbitrary laws are enacted, and the criminal justice system has become a profit making beast that employs lowly taught obedient savages called police who haven't the brains to think a thing wrong, something has to be done. The wealthy corporate fascist who run this country use politics and wedge issues to turn the people against each other while they rape and pillage the country and exploit the world. 
H. L. Mencken said "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public" they haven't, in fact they became filthy rich. The people will get the government they deserve and I don't think George Orwell was far off when he said "If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever". I'm only one man, so while all of you are attending the modern bread and circuses called "news" and "elections" I'll do the only thing one can living in an age of still primitive people, refuse to participate. If you truly want to know who is to blame, look in the mirror.
