- "Man lives and moves in what he sees-but he sees
only what he dreams"
-
- The convoluted title is my way of saying that yesterday
is gone and that tomorrow can never actually be reached: this leaves us
with only the 'now' of today, to live in. When any politician, prophet,
general, or grifter promises anyone anything 'in the future,' this should
set off red-flag warnings, about whatever is being promised. The Twenty-first
Century has been filled beyond capacity with these self-serving promises
that can never even be approached, much less kept.
-
- Some of the casualties of these lies are: What jobs the
government allows us to have that actually yield a profit; what opportunities
there are to even have a job; along with the continual rearrangement of
all parts of the societal infrastructure that is constantly shrinking;
in direct and inverse proportion to how necessary those services and occupations
are to millions of people.
-
- Basically this grifter's phrase can be applied to all
the con-games that have been created from all the recently privatized parts
of what used to be publicly owned services. This includes everything from
transportation services, airlines, commuter buses and rail service, energy
and water supplies, health, welfare, the entire prison system and criminal
justice, education, medical care, social services, and now virtually all
the financing and loan divisions that once had to answer to public needs;
but now answer only to the corporate bottom line. This also includes lines
of credit, loan applications for education, but also includes credit card
rates, availability of stable loan conditions and goes all the way down
to even which jobs will be created, for whom, and for how long.
-
- All together these privatizing policies have perverted
the natural creation of good jobs based on competitive creative growth,
and have replaced these naturally occurring opportunities with thoroughly
controlled artificial constructs that appear and disappear at the whim
of the privatized masters-of-the-new-universe. What happens is determined
by whatever privatized whim is controlling the daily bottom line. By giving
all the power to private interests regardless of what that will mean for
those people and customers that are subject to the savagery of instant
displacement or disappearance of services means that there are no certainties
anywhere, anymore, inside the American economy, on which the health of
commerce and daily life are supposedly based. That is what the Cheney-Bush
administration did to American public life and to American opportunities
across the board.
-
- The 'state' under the dictatorship of Cheney-Bush turned
social services into the hardened enemy of those that they supposedly served.
In communications the FCC became the major censor controlling access to
public information as they mandated the mergers that eliminated local control
over news and public affairs; while they created the huge conglomerates
in media-communications that have blocked information on subjects as diverse
as torture, war crimes, and public corruption of the entire congress and
the White House.
-
- On the local level these conglomerates have blocked reporting
about the number of dead and injured, not just in the wars but from the
actions of thugs that now wear the law-enforcement uniforms of many agencies.
There is no protection whatever for the public now from any government
agency that decides to prosecute their clients rather than to serve the
American public, which was their original reason for being created in the
first place.
-
- Literally everything in the government that was created
to serve the tax-paying public has been perverted to the task of either
denying the public access to what they must have to survive, or to mandating
the exact opposite of what the title of the agencies suggest they were
created to accomplish. The Environmental Protection Agency is now charged
with the Destruction of the Environment. Even 'public broadcasting' has
gone over to the enemy and television as an industry is nothing but the
propaganda arm of the government. The Federal Communications Commission
is charged with silencing the channels of communication while those who
have acquired ownership of the airwaves and the printing presses are charged
with keeping the public in the dark, while they promote the grand-theft,
fraud and murder that has accompanied this rise of the police state in
America.
-
- The Federal Food and Drug Administration has been the
leader in introducing new and deadly 'medicines' and dozens of 'new' drugs
annually for artificially contrived diseases that were created to sell
useless or deadly drugs to an overly-trusting
- public, to ostensibly prevent conditions that actually
never existed, before the behemoths of the 'legal drug world' created them.
This practice has resulted in fantastic income streams that have created
mega-billions for the drug company owners and directors, while they have
devastated the public's health-yet nothing of this massive fraud has even
been considered for investigation. This is a criminal-conspiracy between
FDA, the Drug Companies and the Government that have all agreed to screw
the public to the limits of the public's gullibility; while they remain
above it all raking in their illicit profits with no fear whatever of any
consequences! (1)
-
- All of the above has been made possible by the sold-out
congress that has totally removed itself from oversight responsibility
for anything-since the day they gave George W. Bush his "License to
Kill." Add to this the totally illegal intrusion of Dick Cheney into
the government's actions in virtually every aspect of government affairs
from national-security to war, from creating his own shadow government
in a time of war, to creating criminally illegal decrees to treason, all
the way to being in charge of providing the official cover-up for the mass-murders
that took place on 911. Cheney is a traitor and is guilty of treason against
the people of the United States.
-
- To allow such a flawed piece of work to not only walk
around free; but to continue to give him a national podium to promulgate
his continuing lies in defense of his indefensible crimes; is beyond belief,
and quite literally screams to be answered in Federal Court, before the
public and the world. Instead he is given air time on most of the MSM to
continue with his baseless allegations and his sordid lies with which he
shamelessly tries to justify his criminal activities especially during
the last eight years. If there were any justice in this system Cheney should
be interrogated, using the methods he proscribed so vigorously, for the
terrorists that his international intrigues created-except that since he
is a craven-coward, no such extreme measures would be necessary, in Cheney's
pathetic case.
-
- When congress formally named Bush Jr. the Commander-in
Chief of the US Armed Forces-many took this to mean that Bush was Commander-in-Chief
of the whole government. The truth behind that title is that this term
has very specific limitations and only applies to the military-aspects
of the armed forces of the United States; No 'Commander-in-Chief has any
additional rights in his capacity as head of the administrative branch
of government; yet Cheney-Bush took the position that Commander-in-Chief
meant that Bush was in charge of everything in government as well as the
military.
-
- One very ugly outgrowth from this exaggeration were the
signing statements-thousands of them-that Obama continues to use as well.
These 'third-option-illegalities are not in the constitution anywhere.
When legislation comes to the executives desk he has only two choices,
either sign it or veto it there is no third option. The 'presidents'
thoughts on any legislation are irrelevant, he is only the administrator
who is responsible to the people for implementing whatever has become the
law of the land. Now Obama is following directly in the footprints that
Cheney-Bush burned into the face of the constitution. This practice continues
because this public is too stupid to demand that this dictatorial power
must cease immediately!
-
- But it gets worse. After WWII the War Department became
the Department of Defense. Last week Robert Gates announced that he is
now "the Secretary of War." This is not about semantics; it's
about what the job and the Secretary are charged, by congress to do in
our names. Under the US Department of Defense, in theory, the military
can only function in a defensive posture: that is it can only react to
an attack upon the United States, it cannot start wars. If the department
moves from being the US Department of Defense to being the US Department
of War; then everything that our troops are charged with doing anywhere
in the world, will be no different that what the Nazi Legions were charged
with doing to the enemies of the Third Reich. This is proof positive that
the United States is now officially a rogue nation that is now free to
plan attacks upon other nations, at the will of the Commander-in-Chief,
who is currently Barack Obama.
-
- How does this relate to anything as esoteric as the fact
that 'today is yesterday's tomorrow'? The key lies in the catch phrases
that became so popular since the late nineteen-nineties. The Library of
the Future, the Phone Company of the Future: we might as well be saying
The Government of the Future or Law-Enforcement of the Future, or the Families
of the Future they all boil down to the same thing; Big Brother and
the Fascist Police State in formal dress, without the need to show the
blood and broken bodies which their programs routinely produce for any
reluctant citizen to see and heed-else they shall know what punishment
awaits anyone that fails to comply with whatever folly comes out of the
mouths of our uniformed terror-squads that still call themselves 'police.'
-
- This country is headed for disaster, not least because
we have left the thoroughly corrupted legislatures, at all levels, completely
out of the loop when it comes to assigning blame for how we came to be
in this position now. Between the complicit legislative branch and the
courts that refuse to hear the cases that could change all this: We find
a terrified public that is still fascinated with how much money they might
still be able to make by picking clean the corpse of what was once the
United States of America. This could not be if "the shareholders"
were held liable for the illegalities that the companies they "invested
in" continually pursue.
-
- But since virtually none of the things on the list of
obvious crimes and frauds, murders and perversions; is of any real interest
to this public, at this time-it looks like the criminals will be promoted
rather than be prosecuted; and of course the public will get the bill for
all of it-again!
-
- So this day is the future that was promised to us by
Cheney-Bush so long ago. What do you think about the 'progress' that's
been made since that day back on December 12, 2000 when the Supreme Court
gave the presidency to George W. Bush? Whose country is this now-it's definitely
not my country any longer; how about you?
