It really does not have to be this way. But first, we must recognize this U.S. corporate crime syndicate for what it actually is -- a terrorist government bent on perpetually controlling, manipulating and terrorizing its own people and persons around the world.

An honest assessment of the judicial system in the United States, shows a system that is overwhelmingly also owned and/or controlled by the corporate elite. It certainly cannot be depended upon for genuine systemic redress, for it is itself an inextricable part of this same hypocritical and corrupt U.S. political system. So what do we do?

 

We must stop believing in the lies, distortions, and omissions emanating from the gate keepers of this political system and start believing in ourselves and our own creative capacities. We must understand that, whether we like it or not, we MUST band together to develop and nurture a serious everyday people's movement which is about the concept of WE -ness not the systemically induced virus of ME-ness. This must be a collective struggle to change (not merely reform) an irretrievably corrupt corporate controlled U.S. political system.

 

When we have differences of perspective, etc. -- and we will have differences -- or somebody is definitely lying; we must address those differences in such a way so as to minimize such differences being exploited by the system and used against us. We must constantly develop the creative ways and means to struggle. We must create a collective and inclusive vision towards which we can all work. We must not be afraid to criticize ourselves and each other -- but here again -- in a way that minimizes such honest criticism from being used against us by this cynical, corrupt, and opportunistic system. We must remember that we are not merely struggling against this system; just as importantly we are struggling for something totally different. We are struggling to bring to fruition a model of human interaction that is based upon continual creativity and human needs -- not individual power and insatiable greed.

 

The tyranny and daily terrorism of and by this corrupt gang of opportunistic systemic manipulators, who have the unmitigated audacity to refer to themselves as our representative government, must be seen for what they are - and utterly rejected. It does not have to be this way. It's a long, hard, and protracted struggle -- so let's get busy!

 

Remember: Each one reach one. Each one teach one. Onward, then, my sisters and brothers. Onward!...
