The U.S. economy is not getting “better”.
The U.S. economy is dying.
You should adjust your plans accordingly.
As individuals, it is of course a no-brainer that each of us should "adjust" his or her respective "plans" in accordance with the banker-engineered economic collapse that is currently underway.
But as a
citizenry, first we must
* break out of the television/cell phone-induced state of “
parallel play” we've long been in; and
* break free from our conditioned state of “
learned helplessness” by simply realizing that there are
FAR more of “us” than there are of “
them,” and that the real power thus lies
not with the relative handful of filthy-rich, power-obsessed plutocrats attempting to enslave us all, but with
We the People.
Then we must unite across both party and ideological lines for the purpose of pressuring our elected representatives into implementing urgently-needed and long-overdue public policy reforms, such as those called for in my initial post to this thread and the additional ones called for
here.
It's either that or spend the rest of our “lives” as deeply-impoverished and militarily-repressed
SLAVES to a group of criminal, parasitic, psychopathic robber barons.
Which option do you prefer?
