I Just Saw Something Really Sad. And Then I Got Angry.

43. When the Working Class & The Poor realize...

...that WE have more in common with each other
than we have in common with the 1% and their bought & paid forPoliticians in Washington in BOTH dominant Parties,
Then WE can have "change" too.

THAT is HOW the countries in Latin America have successfully taken their governments back from their 1% Ruling Class.

[font size=3]"The worst enemy of humanity is U.S. capitalism. That is what provokes uprisings like our own, a rebellion against a system, against a neoliberal model, which is the representation of a savage capitalism. If the entire world doesn't acknowledge this reality, that nation states are not providing even minimally for health, education and nourishment, then each day the most fundamental human rights are being violated."[/font]
----Bolivian Reform President Evo Morales

Our neighbors in Latin America have given us the Blue Print for successful, near bloodless Ballot Box Revolutions.
All we lack is the will to follow their lead.
It is FEAR and clever Brand Marketing that keeps us stuck in the old binary paradigm of choosing between the two establishment choices they allow us.

As long as "they" can keep us fighting each other for the big Homecoming WIN,
the predators will continue to feed off of the carcass of America's Once Great Working Class .

Ask Yourself:
[font size=3]What important issues were completely ignored by BOTH parties during the 2012 campaign?[/font]

Hint:
Corporate Profits Hit Record High While Worker Wages Hit Record Low

...and that above is just ONE important issue completely ignored by BOTH Parties during Campaign 2012....because they AGREE 100%.
There are many others, but unless you tuned in to the 3rd party Debates or "AltMedia" (thank you Good4Nothing),
you heard NOTHING about:

* the continuing Failed War on Drugs,

*The DEVASTATION of our Working Class caused by "Free Trade" and the Marketing Myth of "Free Markets".

*the Privatization of out Prisons.

*the scandalous amount of citizens in jail

*the burgeoning supra-constitutional powers of the Unitary Executive

*the national militarization and coordination of our local Police departments

*the continued support of Right Wing, Police State, Death Squad Governments in Latin America

*our "Privatized" Voting Computers with "secret" code

*The "Privatization" of our Public School System

... and many, MANY more IMPORTANT, Life or Death issues for Americans who have to Work for a Living.

.....the employees quickly respond.
They know who butters their bread.[/font]

VIVA Democracy!!!!
I pray we get some here soon.
Our neighbors to the South have given us the Blue Print,
but you won't find it on your TV.
