Another batch from the past couple of months or so...
1/ Imagine if your household budget was shot to hell and you were in debt up to your ears and you said to your significant other: "You know, we need to spend more money on guns!" That would be pretty crazy, right? Welcome to Washington DC.
2/ Remain calm. All is well. Except... We are governed by greedy elites, poverty is rampant in the world, the planet is heating up like an oven, the food isn't safe to eat, the water is touch-and-go at best, democracy is dead, faux capitalism is alive and well, and nuclear energy/weapons are more than a moderate threat.
2a/ BUT: More people are informed and active than ever, the tide is turning our way, the marginalized majority still has their sense of humanity, we are prepared to help each other, and... we will win this thing!
3/ BILL HICKS: "Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control.... You are free to do as we tell you!"
4/ If it's really true that only the good die young, those bastards in Washington are going to live for bloody ever!
5/ Do you ever see the Congress turkeys on TV or in the news and have a medieval moment and just scream out: "OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!"?
6/ Won't it be wonderful when we change the world and have an egalitarian society based on fulfilling work for all? And the Wall Street hotshots who've skated across our lake of economic pain for so long are working shoulder-to-shoulder with us. They'll be bitching their brains out! With great satisfaction I'll lean over and say, "Well at least you have a job!"
7/ If the vast majority of people in this world had their way, there would be peace, food and shelter for all, care for the environment, abolition of all things nuclear, and an eradication of nationalism. These things can't wait too much longer. Time to topple the pyramid and bring the minority elites down.
8/ We have a system that works in favor of a very few people. It's faux capitalism. It's been punishing millions of people for a long time. It's only now that it's moved further upwards to nip at the rest of us that we're calling it a crisis. It's been a national and world-wide crisis for many many people for a long time. The answer? We need a restructuring of our society -- and the so-called "global economy" -- and it can be done. Anyone who says it's impossible should check out the odds on the alternative!
Take care,
Adrian
