In the means streets of any city
anywhere-reality always trumps spin-because survival always depends upon
knowledge of the truth at any given time. In this environment, survivors
need to consider both the facts that created the past, as well as the
potential situations which the mystery of any future might well bring.
History matters in street warfare-apparently that fact has been lost upon
the yuppies of today! To that end this brief overview of some of what has
happened could lead to a more explicit understanding of what waits for us,
if this course we're on is not immediately interrupted!
During the Second World War the Mob was given control over the ports of
the USA, on the assumption that their methods might keep espionage down to
a minimum. Kickbacks were part of the price for their cooperation, and
they did very well. After the war, in the 60's Bobby Kennedy went after
them with a vengeance, and "the mob" was replaced by the government that
had protected them initially. The mob ran the rackets, the sex trade and
reluctantly the drug world, to sumptuous advantages: but as the middle
class began to fold, their extortion rackets began to encounter the more
powerful corporate resistance that replaced the middle class small
businesses, which they had once so successfully extorted. That was the
beginning of the end for the middle class.
Hollywood fared much better-having signed on as the psy-ops branch of
black-ops government, to produce propaganda for the WWII government in
exchange for a tax situation that was the envy of free world
enterprise-everywhere! Unlike the mob the film industry survived and
prospered, despite the black-listings that came with the paranoia of
McCarthy and the communistically consumed 1950's. Indeed just look at
their recent record of cooperation with the criminals in the Tarnished
House - "The Path to 911" - "Flight 93" and other assorted
garbage for television meant to Keep-Fear-Alive in America: regardless of
how many lies they invoke just to keep this nation inside the belly of the
Seven-Headed Hydra that overrules reason and common sense - while it
panders to fear and terror at all levels of this society. Not only has
"Hollywood" survived-it has prospered on this poisoned corpse
that was once a proud and semi-independent nation.
After the removal of the mob from power, the government went on to
bigger things, such as destroying anything like a
viable-political-existence for the besieged middle class. The chosen
fall-guy was the soon to be disgraced figure of J. Edgar Hoover, the
cross-dressing head of the FBI, who wore women's clothes, and kept "secret
files" on everyone in Washington and beyond. Apparently this legacy has
continued in government, even though the cause Caleb has vanished: see the
whole sordid Foley-Hastert-Bush debacle that points out the folly of
appointing the foxes to guard the chicken-houses where the young of either
sex, try to exist unmolested. If the public that says they care about
their children-really care-then they will not stop until these perverts
are put away in the prisons where their actions require them to spend at
least the next twenty years-rather than in the cushy government jobs they
currently enjoy!
Somewhere about now it would seem appropriate for the American populace
to hold a public funeral for "the Death of the Middle Class," in much the
same way that the Hippies held a burial in 1967 for the death of "Flower-Power" and their chosen life of Peace and Love untainted. This
ought to be scheduled for the Capital Mall in Washington, and attended by
the millions of those who still naively believe that they are a apart of
something that has already been subsumed by unchecked transnational
Corporate greed-such that there is no longer a place for the truly small
business person in America, because everything is owned and directed by
those newly minted Billionaires (Millionaires no longer matter according
to Forbes magazine)!
The razor-wire that now separates the working class from
opportunities-unbounded is also part of that US created mine-field that
divides the world evermore deeply into the haves and the have-nots.
Case-in-point are the Border Wars that affect not only labor and
sub-standard pay for Americans and "illegals" alike-but also drugs, and
human-trafficking in the sex-trade at all levels. This was set in motion
by Ronald Reagan, that bad-actor who introduced cheap labor to court his
cronies that sought next-to-free slaves to increase their profits at the
expense of American jobs and incomes. In addition this began this
situation that cannot be solved with any real promise on any side-because
this was blessed for too long by the same government that now claims to be
outraged that we now have so many million of these undocumented people
working and living inside this nation (at their invitation).
Those who are literally responsible, the thieves and bandits who profit
directly from this crime against people everywhere - were supposed to have
been fined for employing the undocumented, but all of this was dismissed
with a wink from "the Great Communicator" and disinterest from
Immigration (and the Media), who were both directly responsible for
enforcement. So the company owners got a pass, and the laborers got
screwed along with the Americans who lost their jobs to these people who
could work for basically nothing - and now after almost thirty years of
this star-crossed policy, this tar-baby has become real.
The bush-league now wants to build a multi-billion dollar wall! All
they really ever wanted was to build a labor-pool surrounded by
deadly-political-spikes that would drive the lines of separation
ever-deeper between the disadvantaged and the poor, on all sides: so that
there could never be a unified revolt against their treachery and treason
in running this country as they chose to! Chalk one up for the
Seven-Headed Hydra, because this quagmire is nearly impossible to "fix!"
Unless of course the reasonable and thoughtful on all sides of this
blatantly racist policy can come together and finally target their common
enemy which is and has always been the government of the United States -
and it's racist and class-structured policies designed to keep all the
poor and disadvantaged "in their places" and out of any remote
chance for any kind of real existence, anywhere!
While all this was progressing, "Higher
Education" became their next
target. As education began to require evermore monetary support (given the
numbers of those searching for a way out), the criminal minds in the
corporations stepped up and offered "support" for higher education in
exchange for a little more say about what would be taught and how, as well
as to who. So the conglomerates began to sponsor "chairs" in
major institutions, along with gaining a major say in the direction of
most universities and institutions of higher learning. This would insure
that the campus rebellions of the Viet Nam variety would never repeat that
performance-while at the same time this gave the unchecked multi-nationals
a breeding ground for their next generations of managers who would never
become distracted by things like a moral compass, or a private
conscience-as money would become their only god-and their
corporate-careers the only goals that mattered. This was a two-for, and
viewed as "a winner" all round, as the willing sheep in college
today chose to drink the corporate Kool-Aid and forget all the moral crap
that so many previous generations had tried to institute among this
nation's former students.
Enter the civilian branch of the military arm of the US government that
appeared in a death grip with the shallowness of student desires that was
all deeply imbedded in false flags and phony histories of a United States
that never was-and never can be, but to the uninitiated this had the ring
of dreams-unlimited. In reality this was only another death mask for a "career that could never
be;" given that so many have no idea how long any
"job" might last-never mind anything as lengthy as "a
career" in anything worth doing. By this process the government and
the corporations killed any chance that the next generation might revolt
against them, in any meaningful way-and in the process they assured that
education could not play a part in preventing what they had so carefully
planned for so very long-in this complex plot to steal the nation and the
world!
Throughout these "preparations" the camps were being readied for those
who might want to challenge what the shadow-politicians have created in
their Armageddon Plan for conquest of the entire nation, thanks to Rummy
& Cheney during Reagan's apocalyptic reign. Between Newt Gingrich's "Contract On
America" and his threat to shut-down the government - and the
blatant arrogance of the succeeding rebels within those republican and
democratic governments that came after him: Most people never tracked the
deeds and never knew they really had a chance, till now! That small window
will remain open only for a very short time-and will be available only to
those with the guts to find out what has happened and the determination to
stand against what is about to take place. Civil discourse has been
co-opted and the public field has become a wasteland of mines and
booby-traps designed to catch the unwary and destroy the innocent while
they maim the still naive. The government's point here is to destroy
whatever is not with them and to exterminate with extreme prejudice all
those who might stand for principles that support human growth and promise
in the world-regardless of race, sex, or religion.
Examples abound in the literal practices of this government. Look at
the integral relationships between the total corruption in medicine, drug
costs and availability as these are impacted by insurance fraud on every
level-designed as this was to constrict the lives of ordinary people to
the braking point-with no alternatives, and no hope of ever changing what
has become the norm. All of this was created purposely by those at the
top, to control and enslave the population, in a way that makes most lives
a living hell! Why is there still no real alternative?
This is only one aspect-look closely at professions of all types. Each
has been affected directly by the "new mob" (government): The government
whose corporate policies backed up by corrupted and compliant media at all
levels, to simply black-out everything in the USA that continues to fall
apart. This is true of the aggressive wars in foreign lands, of our treaty
arrangements with Israel, our failures with North Korea, which is why N.
Korea cannot trust us because we failed to give them the light-water
reactors we promised them, in exchange for sealing off their nuclear fuel
rods (for 8 years), until Bush came along and called their leader names -
just told him to forget the past because he would change
everything - which he did, and now we're looking at a nuclear confrontation,
all because that insecure fool in the Tarnished House is incapable of
having a conversation with anyone who is not a "yes" person.
Look at our grade schools or inner-city life; look at poverty, at drugs
or joblessness. Look at America's Wars on Poverty, on Drugs, and on
Illiteracy-all of them were and are colossal failures! (1) This
war-without-end declared by Cheney-Bush is nothing but more of the same
mega-lies, otherwise known as BS. The war on Poverty produced more
poverty, the war on drugs-expanded the drug markets both here and
overseas. And as for literacy - just listen to puppet at the podium that
cannot speak or listen with any sense of what he is either trying to say,
or trying supposedly "to understand." If the selected person that runs
this nation is incapable of making himself understood-then what's the
point for the downtrodden in this nation, or the youth of tomorrow: If
Bush represents "leadership," then there is no future!
The nation's food supplies are threatened by disease, by corruption,
and by artificial manipulation (Genetically Modified) crops: and all of
that is compounded by the current effort to privatize the water supply
world-wide, in which Mr. Cheney has more than a small part, as his
companies are leading the way toward using water as a weapon against the
peoples of the planet.
None of the above was accidental-all of it was planned to overwhelm a
population already under siege from the 1973 decision of the Tri-lateral
Commission that raised costs, and slashed wages, while removing the
permanence of many jobs. Their decisions created new criteria that would
cut benefits while demanding more work for less pay in jobs across the
board. This too worked all too well in creating the need for two paychecks
to "make-it" in the real world. We've now moved to three paychecks, as the
minimum with ever-rising costs, in exchange for ever-lower wages - and "people" still don't "get-it"?
Where is all this leading? To just a couple of observations: first that
the "Middle-Class" is dead and buried - yet the public still believes that
they are part of something that is now a corpse. Second that the point
inherent in the two wars that are pending later in the month is not going
to be created because of any real political or military reason based on
the facts that exist in the context of the disputes behind the conflicts:
NO - these will be actions undertaken to freeze U.S. politics in place,
(because we shall be immersed in four wars, not two) - and that ought to
be enough to lock in Martial Law for George W. Bush and the scum that
support him, to demand that national elections be postponed until these
wars are "won." That's the driving force behind the seemingly petulant
determination of these thugs - because if this doesn't happen they will
all be headed for prison-and even they know that! George W. Bush,
"President for Life"- does that sound like America to you?
Think about the things mentioned above-many of them took place well
before many people came of age, but that's why "Google" exists.
The window of real opportunity really is very small and getting smaller
every day - so before the net disappears into the belly of Ma Bell once
again, and before Bush and his Troglodytes initiate movements that cannot
be undone - please give some time to these things and weigh whether or not
you want to go quietly into the dark night ahead...
