Subject: RE: BS: US Politics- Are We Gender Voters?
Well, one thing that both the governemnt and the corportions do is extract labor from the working class as well as a share of whatever small share of the wealth the working class is able to corral, which ain't much...
I'll go a step further and say that I have never heard an argument that will hold water that the monied class has had very much to do with the creation of wealth... No, it is the working class who has built this country, maintains it, feeds it, clothes it, etc., etc...
Next time your water heater goes out just tell a dollar to do that... Next time a bridge needs to be built put the dollar on the job...
No, a dollar never did a day's work and being an artifical medium is totally incapable of doing anything... It's a friggin' piece of paper... It has no more real value than Kleenex or Charmin...
I mean, let's get real here...
Real wealth is not created by paper but by labor...
Now TO WIT: It's time for those who are creating this wealth to not be subjetced to ridicule when they point out that their share of the wealth remains the same while the corportists continue to buy politicans who keep it just that way...
95% opf elected people in Congress are there because they spent the most money on their campaigns... Where does most of this money come from??? Not the working class who is slammed but the corportists...
No, the governemnt is not the smae as the corporations... Just owned by them...
The current crop of presidential wantabees is Exhibit A... The ones who have the highest pol numbers are the ones who are taking the most cash from the corporations... P)lus, the corporations own the media and airwaves and use them to further thier agendas thru subtle, yet very effective, propaganda...
In the words of Walter Cronkite, "And that's the way it is..."
Everyone konws it... Those who are benefiting from this corrupt system defend it... Those who aren't are very much powerless to change it...
