Greetings good citizen, like a lobster, slowly being boiled to death, most of you are completely oblivious to the fact you have been the victims of a relentless ATTACK by the One Percent!
Understand, most billionaires were merely multi-millionaires before the attack started...but then life got 'more expensive'...and you whipped out your new 'zero interest for six months' credit card and proceeded to use that to stretch your shrinking paycheck.
Well, the next thing you know you owe a ton on your credit cards and the payments are preventing you from buying food...so you take out a HELOC to pay down the cards with...but the HITS just keep on coming!
Well, Lady Luck to the rescue once again, now your home has (magically) ballooned in value so you re-fi at a much lower interest rate and pay EVERYTHING OFF...except your paycheck which STILL doesn't cover your expenses.
Between automation, off-shoring and CHURN...[remember churn? the practice of replacing highly paid employees with cheaper trainees? (usually displaced workers from other industries.)The 'typical' Boomer has been churned more than once!]
So your paycheck remained at 1990 levels while prices continued to accelerate into the stratosphere!
Worse, many of you adopted the attitude of 'at least I have a job!'...but what you failed to recognize is your job is driving YOU to the poor farm while Mr. Employer is driving a car worth six figures and his wife and kids vacation in Europe!
When you finally DID get a raise, it was LESS than the current rate of inflation! [Mostly thanks to increased co-pays and increases in your contribution to your health plan!]
Did I mention 'mismanagement'?
Should I have pointed to EXTREME Mismanagement? [Not that you'd ever find a court willing to hear the case never mind convict despite overwhelming evidence...]
Ever wonder how they could afford to GIVE MONEY AWAY without going broke themselves?
Now when I tell you 'all money is funny' it doesn't sound so ridiculous, does it?
Ready for the coup de grace?
ALL OF THIS has happened since 'Morning in America' when the One Percent pulled off a 'palace coup' and enthroned an ACTOR as president!
WAKE UP PEOPLE! What you have accepted as 'inevitable' is actually your being cheated out of your share of what there is!
Worse, the 'infamous they' aren't about to give it up OR give it back because they figure if you are TOO STUPID to stick up for yourself, you don't DESERVE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!
Pretty soon that's what the cops are going to tell us about their victims, 'Well, if they thought they were gonna get shot, they shouldn't have pulled over in the first place!' [The implication being it's 'their fault' they got shot/tased to death by complying 'too readily'.]
As we all well know, Justice ISN'T a 'natural state of affairs'.
The 'willingness' to stand up for justice is what makes civilization possible. Without Justice we may as well obey our baser instincts and kill one another on sight!
We live a LOT better co-operatively than we do singularly, if you don't want to crawl into a hole and pull the dirt in over yourself, you have to be willing to FIGHT those who would cheat you out of what's yours!
If not for yourself then for the rest of us!
You may not care what happens to you but you HAVE TO CARE About those to small to fend for themselves.
It's not a law of man but it is a law of nature!
Fail to obey nature's laws and face EXTINCTION!
Now we shall see if I'm right and we remain neck deep in STUPID
Well, am I right?
For all of our sakes I pray I'm wrong!
Thanks for letting me inside your head, [you'll never hear that from a capitalist, he wants to be paid to share what he thinks!]
