Politicians have traditionally hidden behind three things: the flag the Bible and children.

No Child Left Behind. No Child Left Behind. oh really well it wasn't long ago you were talking about giving kids a head start. Head Start, left behind -- someone's losing ground here.

But there's a reason. There's a reason. There's a reason for this, there's as a reason education sucks and it's the same reason that it will never ever ever be fixed. It's never gonna get any better. Don't look for it, be happy with what you got.

Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now. The real owners. The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.

Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't.

You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.

They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying to get what they want. Well we know what they want, they want more for themselves and less for everybody else.

But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that.
That doesn't help them, that's against their interests. That's right.

They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table to figure out how badly they're getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard thirty fucking years ago. They don't want that.

You know what they want? They want obedient workers.

Obedient workers.

People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduce benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it and now they're coming for your Social Security money, they want your fucking retirement money, they want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street.

And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later because they own this fucking place.

It's a big club and you ain't in it.

You and I are not in the big club. By the way it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe all day long, beating you over the head in their media telling you what to believe what to think and what to buy. The table is tilted folks, the game is rigged, and nobody seems to notice and nobody seems to care.

Good honest hard-working people, white-collar, blue-collar, doesn't matter what color shirt you have on, good honest hard-working people continue -- these are people of modest means -- continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fuck about them.

They don't give a fuck about you. They don't give a fuck about you. They don't care about you at all, at all, at all... you know? And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. That's what the owners count on, the fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red white and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes everyday.

Because the owners of this country know the truth. It's called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.

Hey there jersan. Just wanted to let you know that I happened to scroll by and see this comment chain. I noticed that you have treated our friend ImFresh3x with respect and humility. Also it seems that you display a genuine curiosity and openness to engaging with viewpoints that might be different from your own. Nice to know you’re hanging out in this neighborhood. Seeya around!
