I have a dream also
Edited on Mon Jan-18-10 11:19 AM by SHRED
We need to look no further than the breakneck speed of passage, and size, of the Wall St. bailouts along with MIC war spending juxtaposed against the snails crawl to a watered down health insurance "reform" bill to see who really runs this country.

All this right/left, Lib/Con, Dem/Repub bullshit is to keep us all distracted why the wealthy corporate elite continue to by-off the political process in the USA.

I have a dream also.
My dream is that what divides us working men and women who are struggling to pay our bills will quit, and we'll stop fighting each other and demand our government start working for us for a change.

Turn off the TV and Radio and/or listen with a critical ear.
These outlets are not on our side.
It's big money that controls the message and the masses...break free.

2. I turned the propagandists off 5 years ago
and the only wonder was how little I missed their corporate bleating and lying by omission at the dinner hour. Now I can't stand watching any of them, even for 5 minutes, even during some sort of disaster when there's a chance that some of what they're saying is factual.

The only good thing about economic disaster is that cable is the first thing to go. Deprived of 24/7 propaganda, perhaps some people will slowly start to awaken.
