When you are poor and getting poorer, you will ask for help from the government and you will be doing exactly as you've been programmed. When there are riots in the streets, you will ask for the military to restore order, just as planned. When you are hungry because the crops have died, you will plead for the Monsanto GMO corn and soybean. When plagues from a pharmaceutical petri dish, real or media created, threaten to wipe out humanity, you will beg for the world authorities to inject you with their "cure" and to isolate the infected. When the weather seems brutal and extreme, you will give your children to be sacrificed to the gods, so that your government will restore your right to pleasant weather. When the TV set tells you that Iran has used a nuclear device in an American city, you will put your flag outside your front door and throw your complete support behind a massive bombardment of Iran. You will trust the government is telling you the truth, even though they've never told you the truth about anything in the past.

And the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England will look down from their heavily guarded palaces onto their circular firing line of dead, homeless, unemployed, uneducated, drug dependent, fat, uninformed, but very compliant, little citizen soldiers, and then smile.

Or, we could all turn around in unison, like the wise and brave people of Iceland, and face the real enemy. With knowledge, courage, conviction and true patriotism, we could simply say, No! We could begin picking up the pieces of our once promising republic. And then, we could smile.
