A parable of sorts
In the span of the last 20 minutes or so on CNN I have learned that there is an uncorroborated, supposed plan to attack the N.Y. city subway system within the next few days, there was a raid in Iraq with connections to the CIA, that apparently, but not positively may or may not have been connected to the supposed terrorist plot in N.Y., and NASA is working on a highway system in the skies that millions of small-motored flying cars will tool around on (in?). I shit you not, AND they showed an example of one of these cars, a sleek ruby red classic American auto meets Naboo star fighter, AND the damn thing was flying. The news can’t be sure whether the information we are receiving from our government is true, and subsequently reason for alarm, but they can, in effect, tell us that if we some how make it through the next 10-20 years, let alone the next few days, for those of us who may be the projected targets of terror, we as a species will inherit the earth with technological wonders that seem the stuff of cartoons and cinema.
Also on CNN, the U.S. government has perhaps foiled two terrorist plots, so they say. An ‘expert’ was asked if he thought those had been significant plots, and he said something like, ‘One was from Jose Padilla, but he hasn’t been charged.” Keep in mind he has been held for over two, if not, three years, and is an American citizen,” So we don’t know how serious that was.” They also say he was involved in a plot for a “radiological” attack. He sort of shrugged off the other ‘official’ plot in the same manner.
How long can “WE THE PEOPLE” support, defend, and empower policy that takes away our civil liberties, with so little to show in exchange for our faith in democracy, and this republic. It is hypocrisy to embolden federal power, and federal secrecy, while giving away our right to live without centralized, large government looking over our shoulders and into our homes. Where are the fiscal CONSERVATIVES to protect the people from out of control big government spending? Where are the small government REPUBLICANS to stand up for the common man?
The meek, the humble, the hungry, the dispossessed?
The have been led astray by those who stand for corporations, for profits over people, for corporate finance over American families. They divide. They conquer. It is their Nature, if a machine fueled by greed and arrogance, can be said to have such.
The proverbial wool over the proverbial eyes.
Government + Business = Corporatism (Fascism) + God = Neo Conservatism
