HOW THE PEOPLE GOT THE BENEFITS THAT THEY HAVE TODAY: ACTIVISM
See you
gotta trace the past, trace history! Liberals running noisy Pickets, screaming
Activists, hoarse throat socialists demanding The POOR MAN’s MEDICARE and not
just for seniors…NEW BENEFITS LIKE PELL GRANTS, STATE GRANTS, SCHOLARSHIPS, NEW
LAWS, LESS TAXES, LESS LICENSING FEES, democracy GAVE YOU the GOOD LIFE. This
decade has turned out to be the perfect argument against Social Darwinism i.e.
“I got mine, now you peons JUST TRY to get yours,” -- the elite Republican
battle cry. LIBERALS carve out the future, NOT REPUBLICANS!
WHAT ACTIVISTS GAVE TO YOU
AND ME THAT WE TAKE FOR GRANTED TODAY: Original (seriously rewritten by
me) was found at http://tvnewslies.org/html/day_in_the_life_of_joe_middle-.html
You’ll
see it if you just study a Day In The Life of Joe Middle-Class Republican
All
but $10.00 of his medications are paid for by his employer’s medical
plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical
insurance. Now Joe gets it too. He prepares his breakfast—bacon and eggs today.
Joe’s bacon is safe to eat because some liberal fought for laws to regulate the
meatpacking industry.
Joe takes his shower, reaching for his shampoo. His bottle is properly
labeled with every ingredient and the amount of its contents because some
liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how
much it contained. Joe dresses, walks outside and take a deep breath. The air
he breathes is clean because some tree-hugging liberal fought for laws to stop
industries from polluting our air. He walks to the subway station for his
government-subsidized ride to work; it saves him considerable money in parking
and transportation fees. You see, some liberal fought for affordable public
transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.
Joe begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent
pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays, and vacation because some
liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Joe’s
employer pays these standards because Joe’s employer doesn’t want his employees
to call the union. If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed he’ll get a
worker compensation or unemployment check because some liberal didn’t think he
should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.
It’s noontime. Joe needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay
some bills. Joe’s deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC and FDIC
because some liberal wanted to protect Joe’s money from unscrupulous bankers
who ruined the banking system before the Depression.
Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his below-market
federal student loan because some stupid liberal decided that Joe and the
government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over
his lifetime.
Joe is home from work. He plans to visit his father tonight at
his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive to Dad’s.His
car is among the safest in the world because some liberal fought for car
safety standards. He arrives at his boyhood home. He was the third generation
to live in the house financed by Farmers Home Administration because bankers
didn’t want to make rural loans. He house didn’t have electricity until some
big government liberal stuck his nose where it didn’t belong and demanded rural
electrification.
Joe is happy to see his dad who is now retired. His dad lives on
Social Security and his union pension because some liberal made sure he
could take care of himself so Joe wouldn’t have to. After his visit with dad he
gets back in his car for the ride home.
He turns on a radio talk show, and the host keeps saying that
liberals are bad and conservatives are good. (He doesn’t tell the audience that
Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys
throughout his day). Joe agrees. “We don’t need those liberals with their
bloated governments ruining our lives. After all, I’m a self-made man who
believes everyone should take of themselves, just like I always have. I’m
voting for BUSH!”
Oligarchs try to convince a
few propertied middle class voters that they have to join them, fight the
sweaty hoardes of invading third worlders, vote the GOP ticket, battle some
dark, dirty force, and they have conscripted a lot of groups. Religious right.
Anti-Tax libertarians who hear COMMIE as a buzzword. Even blacks.
We are a species in transit ....and each one of us in our
lifetime willhave to grab the throats of the evildoers, the ungiving Planetary
Overlords .. the oligarchs, 14 families, the REPUBLICAN LEADERS and threaten
holy Hell.
These oligarchs are not the duped REPUBLICAN voters, it’s the
PROPAGANDA purveying GOP/MILITARY and corporate types (tied together for
strength, like Fascia Mussolini noted, or
sticks. A single stick breaks, not a few tied together.) And tied together,
they unctuously wrap themselves in the flag, spout patriotic slogans and edge
the populace on to sanction war. They diddle us with bread, circuses, corrupt
tv, sports, then talk shows that have bought talking heads who enrage us into
war. How many gas eating SUVS wear flags while BUSH and cie. Kill BABIES
here and abroad. They play us like lutes!
SOME FORCE is
PLAYING THRU ME!!!
We
succumb to injected patriotism and we foam for war. We succumb to gilded tinsel
promises not worth the base metal they were painted on. WE must resist the
temptation to believe those foolish lies that only by being born again will we
go to heaven. We must remember, we are already divine. We are liberals and we
must keep on keeping on—in the battle for our rights vis a vis the planetary
oligarchs, their insults to our ecology, workplace and air. We must fight for
more than hybrid cars, a no gas car as PETROLEUM deposits are finished. THERE
isn’t enough oil left for a few years of running those SUVS. We must
fight for decent salaries but until we have them, for AFDC, foodstamps. We must
step lively to be on top of every INSULT, injury and planned stratagem of the
monarchs by learning to work the media so that even Baptist dummies fulminate
against nasty Muslims and vote the straight GOP party!
Start doing issue-related P.R. I recently did it for the TSUNAMI
orphans who weren't allowed to be adopted by Non-Muslim families. Ask me for
the PUBLIC RELATIONS master list of every fax, email, phone of every media
person across the planet. Someone sent me this immense list for P.R. purposes.
IF these greedy politicos are going to pork barrel our tax money
to their war toy chums, and commandeer the government JEFFERSON and FRANKLIN designed
for OUR PROTECTION which we PAID FOR I MIGHT ADD... they DESERVE their chin
hairs FULL of us, like fleas .. their offices and faxes full of radicals,
forced to hear our demands, watch our pickets on TV, our million man marches.
Nixon used to cringe in the Oval Office when we picketed outside on
Pennsylvania Avenue about the war. And it worked.
I just read a brand new article that said the reason our
soldiers in Nam killed so many villages full of civilians down to the last
granny and child was that they didn’t see anybody else out there in the jungle.
THEY THOUGHT it was the villagers! NOW it turns out that there were five layers
of condo-tunnels under ground and thousands of soldiers lived there, could come
out at night, do things, then disappear and hide in their rat holes. That’s why
GI’s killed Nam civilians. Mei Lais everywhere driving our soldiers literally
nuts. Confounded, THEY did a decade of CIVILIAN GENOCIDE as misguided as WMD in
IRAQ and our killing l00 k IRAQUIS, their killing 1,000 of us.
“I Have seen the enemy and he is Us.” A paranoid high tech
blunderbuss serial killer run by petroleum seeking Colonial elitists and doing
it with YOUR sanction. WHich you gave as a voter. Hitler was elected, so was
BUSH --- by YOU!
