FOR CENTURIES, this nation has a social image that lied to itself about its own society. People walked around and claimed public images of dignity, while they supported multiple centuries of slavery and indenture. Beatings, killings, rapes, and molestation's of not only women, but children and too of boys and men, and they put on their fancy attire and strutted among each other in the town square and public events claiming themselves to be of moral character and dignity.
That lie morphed itself from generations to generations and bled into the ideals that some still hold to this day. But, the vile continues, it was not only of blacks that this vile was done unto, it was engaged upon poor whites and certainly the dire poor whites, whose lives were filled with every sort of ignorance from lack of educations to destitution at a level they could not even think of being educated, for the strains of trying to put food on the table. They were for centuries paid no more than it cost to house and feed a slave, and told they were doing well, because they were being paid, where slaves were not paid. Yet, their lives provided them nothing but enough to rent shelled from the same people who had enslaved others, and enough to buy grain, and in some cases not even enough to properly feed themselves. Then when their crops grew, they were under bid and had to sell it at a loss, which left them indebted to the wealthy, this cycle still continues.
People work jobs, that pay insufficient to meet the proclaimed "standard of living"... it provides maybe a roof, food, and the necessity of transportation, but they can't afford medical care, nor can they save anything, and they live in perpetual debt.
It's time to FACE THE TRUTH... especially when we are bombarded with the battle of the Wealthy, Destroying Jobs, by their incessant cycles of Buying and Taking over companies, and leaving people unemployed and products and services of the lowest grade they can get by with pawning off on the people, by and through "fake advertisements".
We have a mess brewing this very day with the AT&T trying to gobble up Time Warner, all the while these Greed monsters know it will cost 10's of thousands to loose jobs at both companies, and diminish the competitive services that help people by keeping pricing from gouging them by monopolies.
It's America's Time to FACE TRUTHS
We can cites many of these types of madness makings taking place. In Medical Business and Every Other kind of business, and at the core ... its simple Greed. This is what we have created our Universities to Teach, and they have moved these degree riders into position and they are exercising what they've been taught. It's devastating America.
For the same sake of people parading around claiming themselves moral and of character, based on nothing more than money and material things, which they have indulged themselves to "do anything to get". It's like an infection of "Peacock Madness"... Eroding everything in society, for the "haughtiness and fictions that promote self consumed pride, built upon material ideology, and money as their God. We see more people killing their whole family and people claiming depression because they don't have various material things, or they can't be incessant shoppers, or get the newest gadget, even when the old one is still working fine.
Apple, Inc honed in on this madness and make fools of many every 6-9 months, with so called new an overpriced gadget, made with foreign slave wage labor, and pawned off on the vanity of Americans. We've wasted billions and then just months ago discovered the malice of Apple, who "slowed down older units" to force people to buy new ones, and when they got busted they blamed it on claiming they were concerned about the people "battery life", when it did not even provide a means for people to change out the batteries themselves.
We had better become more Aware of the fleecing.. this system was built upon... and learn to teach the young, who can be armed to change the paradigm of how this nation functions, and teach them ethics so they can bring a better character to society. This is likely to be done through the Democratically Taught, because the opposition from the Republican Taught will be a force that will continue to try to keep the old fleecing models firmly in place into the future.
