Greetings good citizen, if we were to make a list of what the media tells us is causing civilization to collapse would you put PEOPLE at the top of that list? Funny because the media doesn't. I saw an article this morning that pointed at 'ageism' being the problem with our political process (and by extension, the rest of society.)
Funny this old chestnut would return to center stage just as the 'nothing in common with anyone, self-styled Champion of the People', Donald Trump is axing billions from the Social Security TRUST.
CONSERVATIVES are fond of calling SOCIAL SECURITY an 'entitlement program' when we PAY IN all our working lives, it's not free nor has it remained 'untouched' over the years, again, historically it has been Republicans that have dipped into the trust fund without paying it back, (because that would mean new taxes!) The last president (on record) to 'reform' social security was the actor Ronald Reagan.
He raised the retirement age and cut benefits...then proceeded to run up the largest peacetime deficits in history...all while the economy recorded its worst performance since the Great Depression.
But I digress.
Thieves walk free when their crimes go...unrecognized (and therefore unpunished.) If the public is agitated by criminals storming through the nation's borders will they pause and consider that the self-professed 'Great Man' is looting the treasury under the PRETENSE of keeping them safe?
Doesn't this return us to the real reason civilization is falling apart?
The cognizant know what I'm going to type next but I want to give them this moment to enjoy their brilliance.
I know it, the cognizant know it but the question is do YOU know it?
Where does the conversation keep returning to? Same old, same old, right?
How F'n STUPID are you?
If this needs to be pointed out then the answer is MIGHTY!
Ready for it because this is the case for the majority of you!
You can pretend to be in the know but the media jerks you around regularly, not because the media has never lied to you, that ship has sailed and EVERYBODY knows the talking heads don't care about truth, honesty or values, they f'n only care about their PAYCHECK and if they want to keep getting one they write what the boss wants them to, the truth be damned.
But I digress...again!
Back to our 'list' and the principle item we would rank as the number one unrecognized crisis destroying human civilization.
Do you know?
It's among the 'THREE PILLARS of civilization' (which also happen to be the three founding principles of ASP.
It's the second one and that's all the hint you're going to get.
Remember how they are 'connected', there's a little verse I use when I lay them out for you.
The middle one is the top of the list.
Until next time Head,
