Reply #8: I believe "the press" is forcing the distractions on us. [View All]

Not even my Mom, who loves soap opera dramas is watching all of these circuses.

The media is in the pocket of the War Profiteering Corporations.

War is good for business.

The best hope I can see in the future is to weed out the Corporate Democrats. This may take a couple of decades. But as our finances dwindle (everyone who doesn't have over 300,000 of chump change to invest), our RESOLVE will strengthen.

Once we can fill our Congress with Populist Democrats and TRUE Moderate Republicans (those really for SMALL Businesses), then we can REGULATE THE RUN AWAY CORPORATIONS. Competition can be introduced and as a consequence, we the people will be much better served. Perhaps we may someday have enough recovered to plan for "the common good." :-) :shrug:

I know, my husband sometimes claims "The Consumers" demand this trash, but I don't think so. The BIG PROFITS for both Media and the Military Industrial Complex is through perpetual war making. :thumbsup:
