The War In America

Not the Iraq war, not The War on Terror,not the War on Drugs,

the Class War, us vs. them,the rich against the poor and middle class.

We have really been taking a beating since Bush swiped the Presidency, twice.

Tax breaks for the rich?

Reaganomics V2.0.

The Bankruptcy Law giveaway?

A back breaking assault on the front line of Americans already shell shocked by the constant bombardment of trying to stay afloat against the rip tide of stagnant wages, the rising cost of living, unaffordable housing and skyrocketing energy and medical costs.

There is no middle class left to speak of, not the way it was defined forty years ago.

The rich have gotten richer at a staggering rate, being a millionaire used to be being rich beyond imagination, now the super rich laugh at mere millionaire’s.

We have been gamed, set up for failure before we even start walking and talking.

Take a look around you if you are over Forty and tell me this country even remotely resembles the one you grew up in.

It is a Fascist Police State now, not a Democracy, has been for quite awhile now.

We currently have more American citizens in jail than any other country on the planet.

The rest of us are so busy trying to survive we don’t have the time or energy to even fight back, just the way they want it.

Now take a look at the justice system that has put all these people in jail, do you not see a drastic difference to how people with money and influence are treated for breaking the exact same law as you or I?

I do.

Scooter Libby ring a bell?

Warrantless wiretaps, the Total Information gathering project, the deliberate gutting of Habeus Corpus, the list goes on and on.

How about pay scales?

CEO getting hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation for running a company into the ground?

It does not compute unless you happen to BE one of these people.

Look at the current financial meltdown , not just allowed but encouraged by our current crop of supposed government administrators and caretakers.

Now we are backing the buyout of billion dollar bankruptcies in Corporate America by their business competitors with tax payer money!

Billions and billions of dollars have flat out disappeared from the vaults of our country into Iraq and no one can be bothered to find out where it went. Oil companies are being subsidized after taking in profits never seen before in the history of man!

I have not even scratched the surface of one percent of the economic and social depravities inflicted on the average American over the last two hundred years.

The last eight years have seen that pattern explode in new injustices and now it is time to fight back.

The only way we can strike a crippling blow is to strip these sinister bastards from power. Without the power of selective lawmaking and enforcement there is a small glimmer of hope that the abuses of the recent past can be stopped from procreating in a system rotten to the core.

At this point I am not willing to sue for peace, there is no truce in this war, only the power to force the laws to work the way the ones with the reins want them to work.

We need to take those reins come November.
