Our bought government

I don't think there's any doubt that we know our government is bought.  H.R.3261 and S.968 are clear pictures that highlight the undeniable truth. These bills are clear examples that big corporation will go all the way to fight anyone that could be or already is their competition.  What makes this sad though, is the fact that our government is sold.  Sold on the all mighty dollar.  Not the idea that anyone should be able to compete in this country to get their "American Dream", but that it should only be for those that can fill their pockets the most.  Knowing this, when is enough, enough.  I guess the American people will have to answer that for themselves.  For you that are so conservative that you're happy with these big corporations taking over and that our government is sold, don't cry when they cut your hands off.

End America's downfall


The New Year is here and some are always looking for something better than the year before.  This 2012 brings the debate on which presidential candidate will be the best choice for the country.  There are quite a few making a case to be the GOP candidate, and of course Obama is the Democratic candidate.

As debates are being made and truths and/or lies are being brought out; what does this say about the character of the candidates?  Frankly, I could care less about them and who wins the presidential race.  What I do care about is government and private company corruption, and how however wins the presidential race will still not make a difference in the corruption plaguing this country.

I recently read a book by a highly acclaimed activist, indicated that the only way this country is going end the corruption by this government and America’s elite, is if the people stop it themselves.

Well, there are people who support occupy Wall Street, that want to end private company corruption.  Also, there are those that stand out in front of Capital buildings and the White House, protesting government corruption.  However, that is not enough.

Police are used as the Government's and American Elite's weapon to push people away and to silence their voice.  One day police will stand with those that are protesting for them as well. Police will realize one day that they are being used, and that this government and private companies are only looking out for their interests and will throw them into the pit with the rest of us.

Military troops, although they are our Country’s heroes, will realize they are being used, and that this country could care less about them through the failed medical treatments this government provides those that return from war. In addition, the substandard equipment they use to go war.

Teachers are obviously on board because of our government’s failure to back them up.  Many school districts are using a government program that is not working, to teach our kids.  Also, teachers are dealing with the harassment of students that do not want to learn and ruining the education for so many that do.

Labor workers should also be on board.  Our government asked them to shell out money to bailout private companies, when they had little to spare. Now, what has the government and private companies provided in return, pink slips.

People, no matter your rank, career, and/or position in America, if your not part of the American Elite and/or Government, then you are being used. Race, Ethnicity, Gender, Religion, Creed, has no bearing on how this Government and American Elite see us.  This County’s Government and the American Elite have failed us; and they are using every smoke and mirrors tactic they can conjure up to throw us off their trail and keep us fighting one another instead of aiming our fight at them.

Wake up America! Wake up!!!
