114. This is
the only truth of this Election, CORPORATISM.

CORPORATISM underscores all events from the most benign appearing to the obvious cancers.

I have no faith in either party, to the extent that each is ruled by the same or similar corporate masters. The rest is bread and circuses for the masses from football to American Idol. Most people here are not discriminating enough to realize that they are being played like a harp. They get so caught up in the minutia of a campaign, they miss the larger picture of CONTEXT.

Anyone looking at events from ANY degree of historical perspective will see the hands of CORPORATISM gone wild in everything. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, "those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it".

Unless some widespread deprivation based insurrection takes place, we are in the hands of masters for the indefinite future.

The irony is that even those who will celebrate a victory, are already losers too.
