that you or I have been taught to believe is bullshit.
#1. The game is rigged. It always has been.
#2. The people who rig the game belong to a very small, exclusive club.
#3. Neither you or I are in the club. In fact, no one I know personally is in it, nor will they ever be.
#4. Morals, ethics, empathy, what you have been taught to believe about right, wrong, truth, justice and the American way do not apply to the folks in the club. They are above the law because they make the law and if they find the law inconvienient, they just change the law.
#5. The people who are in the club own the media. All of it. They own the T.V., the newspapers, the magazines, the radio, All of it and they dictate what you see, hear and are told. Can you imagine a country involved in at least three wars yet there is hardly any mention of it in the media? The folks in the club learned from Viet Nam. The folks who sit on the boards of G.E., Halliburton, Electric Boat, etc are in the club and war is very profitable for them, thus, they have decided that the best way to keep those profits flowing is to make sure we don't hear about what the wars cost. Nothing to see here folks, move along. Oh, LOOK ! Anthony has a wiener!
#6. The folks in the club are very good at what they do. They have been doing it for a long, long time. As long as they can make the peasants believing that who wins Dancing with the Stars is more important than people starving in the streets, as long as they can make us believe that an ignorant, knuckle dragger like Sarah Palin is actually a viable candidate to lead our country, we are screwed.
#7. Playing by the rules means playing by THEIR rules and rule #1 is that the rules don't apply to them.
#8. Untill enough people figure this out, we are screwed.
#9. We are screwed.
I was not always this cynical. There was a time when I believed in the system but the more history I read and the more history I see being made the more I feel like I live in the "Matrix" world. A few of us have figured it out. Most never will.
As one, final example, I offer you Fukushima. When they realized that the levels of radiation being emitted had exceeded the "safe" levels, they simply changed the amount considered safe. When the B.P. oil spill destroyed the entire Gulf of Mexico, they simply told us that everything is fine. Nothing to see here folks.
