My mind's made up

The Clinton's have put me off. It's politics as usual. And sometimes Hillary scares me. I think she's a great woman---strong, intelligent, a real model for a generation of girl's who have only had Paris Hilton to emmulate. But even though she wants to do things for good, she will need to take away (and is willing to take away) our Constitutional rights to carry out her plans. Facsism is facsism no matter what.

I'm hoping for a McCain/Obama matchup. It would be exciting. Yet with Romney out of the picture, I think most of his votes will go to Huckabee. Then the GOP will have no chance and thank the gods for that one!

Once you get passed all the lies on the internet about Obama, you should be able to see why so many are comparing him to JFK. He is really the only candidate that might possibly be able to bring about this change stuff we've been hearing so much about. He stands by his convictions. He was one of the few senators who voted against the Iraq war, and that took courage.

My indecision over the Democratic contender and McCain (the one Republican I thought may be worthy) finally ended. McCain wants more war. I can't understand how someone who spent 6 years as a POW in one bullshit war would want to not only continue a second bullshit war, but also wants more bullshit wars.

BULLSHIT!!!!!

And McCain doesn't lift the spirits, either. He tells states like Michegan and Ohio that the jobs are gone and they aren't coming back. Why not just tell them to roll over and die? I don't see any reason why jobs can't come back to the American people. If McCain can, well, I guess he doesn't see the American people. http://lessjobsmorewars.com/?utm_source=rgemail

So, I've decided. Obama is the man.

The exception to the rule

I'm all about buying American, buying locally, keeping jobs in America.

Except...

DON'T BUY AMERICAN CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

American car makers can't even sell their cars in other countries because the emission standards in other countries are too high. Cars from other countries are more fuel efficient and better for the enviroment. Thusly, they are better for everyone.

If we tell American car makers we aren't going to buy their product unless they get with the program, they will get with the program. Toyota and Honda lead in car sales. If they continue to take away business, the American car companies will have no choice.

Did you know that by 2009 your tv will be obsolete unless it is HD? The television companies will make a fortune. So why can't the car companies see that if everyone's car is outdated that they will reap the benefits? And why don't they realize all the jobs they could provide by improving car standards? Old cars will need re-outfitting. New jobs will be created because the demand for better cars will be great. It's a win-win.

So fuck Ford and GMAC. Save the kiss for when they deserve it.

A little dose of guilt

Someone random says to me, "So, we're positive about this global warming stuff, even the president has said it's true, right? So, why isn't anyone doing anything about it?"

Good question.

During the second world war, people gave up rubber, nylon, steel---whatever was necessary. Their sugar, butter and eggs were rationed and everyone did it because it was for the greater good.

During the seventies we had the fuel crisis and car companies abandoned those gorgeous muscle cars for more fuel efficiency.

In the eighties, we learned what the Cfc's in aerosol cans was doing to the ozone and every aerosol can was changed.

Now, here we are in a real crunch. In your lifetime, you may not have fresh air to breathe. In your lifetime, you may not have clean water to drink. In your grandchildren's lifetime, the earth may not be able to sustain life.

What are YOU doing?

I find every problem the world encounters stems from overpopulation. If only there were less people. Especially if there were fewer solipsistic, stupid people.

Check out the movie idiocracy from Mike Judge. We are heading for that reality.

Should you ever meet me, don't be fooled. I may be charming and you may like me, but I am a misanthrope. I wasn't always, but people have a way of not letting me down because they will always let you down. I have, perhaps, a half dozen friends---a word I believe people bandy about too freely. It doesn't at all bother me to have so few friends. I know I can count on them for anything. These few would never let me down; would always be there for me.

How many out there can say the same?

Resolutions

I think in the upcoming year I'm going to be more subversive. I've been holding back out of fear. Now it's time to really speak my mind.

I told that to a friend yesterday and he said he wasn't sure if he'd be able to associate with me one the FBI started looking at me. I told him they've been looking at the both of us for years, so why end such an amicable relationship.

It's time for people to wake up and realize drastic change is needed. I won't lie, it's going to be hard. We'll have to change our sedentary way of life and sacrifice and work hard. But I believe the continuation of the human race on the planet Earth is worth it.

I hope the rest of you do too.

Viva la Revolution!

Take a look back at my last post. We are becoming a nation of servants. But there is no reason for that to happen. Take arms, Brothers. The time is near.

There are more of us than there are of them. The poor get poorer because they are exploited by the rich. The rich get richer because they screw the poor at any chance they get. Aren't you mad? Don't you think it's, not only unfair, but just plain wrong that those with money can get away with anything they want? Don't you think they should have to answer for what they are doing?

Get mad, People! The time to stand up for what is right is now. Quit whining and start to take action.

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!!!!!!

The New American Slaves

So many people can't see what's going on in front of them. They aren't getting the big picture. I'm going to break it down for you.

A large corporation sends its factories to another country (Coca-Cola, Nike, Kimberly-Clark, etc.). They claim, since the labor is cheaper, they can pass the savings on to you. They don't. They keep all that extra money for their own greedy little selves. Meanwhile, they have taken jobs from American people. These are skilled laborers who used to be making enough money to live and support their children.

Where are all these displaced workers to go? There is really only one place: the service industry. They won't be making anywhere near what they used to. They won't be able to support their families on what they make. But they have no choice. They have a skill they can no longer utilize.

Now, those corporation suits, their profits are up and they have it all at the expense of the American people. Do you see what they are doing?

They are turning us into a nation of servers! That one percent of the population that controls ninety-five percent of the wealth is forcing the rest of the population into servitude.

Don't stand for it, People. You have to fight the power, rage against the machine. If you continue to give money to those who would enslave you, then you will only deserve what you get. But if we stand up against The Man we may continue to be the land of the free.
