Capitailism Is It Evil?

In it self no,it is part of a free society,it creates innovation. But with no restrictions or rules, capitalism can destroy more than it creates. Total capitalism is a Republican idea that will never work.They think all wealthy capitalists will put the countries needs above their own.That is a falsity they all expect us to believe, when history shows us something else.Didn’t workers have to create unions to make sure they were paid a living wage and were treated with respect by business owners.If companies didn’t have regulations dealing with the environment would our water we drink or the air we breath be as healthy as it is now.Should we let Wall Street run wild, do you want it to do whatever it wants with no oversight?

Some Wealthy people are hoarders, not of items, but of money.They will hold onto it even though they have many times what they need in their everyday lives.It is a shame that their mental illness is keeping money out of the economy, that could give others a job and a way to provide for their families.

One phrase I find revolting is that it is only business.What does that mean ,that morals or caring about your fellow-man are somehow anti-business?No wonder this country is in the economic slump it is.Until we can do business in a morally responsible way the lower and middle class will be treated like chattel. They will be ignored, not paid what they should be,or treated with anything but contempt by the wealthy.Some very rich people forget where their money came from it is time to give them a little reminder.

P.S. Donald Trump if it wasn’t for everyday Americans you would be the one getting your next meal from a dumpster.

Education System Needs a Reboot

First question,how many of you remember all those dates and facts you were taught in school.I bet not many.So why is all this time wasted in school filling young minds with stuff they will never remember later?Is that what education is all about?Do we really need to know all this stuff we will probably never use in our everyday life?

I think schools would be better served by teaching children how to learn and not what to learn.Some basics should be taught like reading ,math, and maybe some science but then we should give children a way to learn that works for them as individuals. Not everyone learns by filling their minds with facts and in some cases that causes some children’s mind want to shutdown and become bored, instead of what should happen, they should become excited to learn more.If you want bored children who are not interested in school, we are good at that.

Education should not be a one size fits all system of learning,that leaves some out because it doesn’t work for them.Education should be a tailored system that can help everyone reach their full potential.It shouldn’t be a system that stifles creativity and asks that everyone conform to what is considered normal.Normal is an abstract idea that has no real value,normal is just what someone has decided is the new status quo.We can do better then that I think.We have to go beyond labels,and expect more in our education system.The education system we have now isn’t creating creative people anymore.People who can solve real life problems with new ideas have become a dying breed.

Innovation we need but are lacking is the real reason we are falling behind countries like China.We have become consumers not creators.We make very little but consume in greater and greater amounts.That is the reason our economy is sliding into the crapper.We live like parasites living off the work of others.As long as we do that we will never grow as a people.

The rich in this country are the worst of the parasites,living off the work of others.It wouldn’t bother me so much if they paid workers a decent salary and not take millions for doing nothing and in some cases running a company into the ground.

Who Has A Better Truthmeter?

Is it someone who is more school educated or is it someone more street smart? It would be interesting to know if more educated people with a formal education can compare to people whose very survival, living in some urban areas, who depend on knowing whose telling them the truth can tell in someone is lying to them. I do not think formal education gives people better skills at telling truth from fiction. How can it when the education system is based on teachers giving their students facts without question that they must learn.Is that a way to give someone a better truthmeter,the answer is no.

Someone who lives in a city where being able to tell if someone is lying to you, may mean you might live another day, probably has a better truthmeter.That means they are better able to sift through the lies and find the truth.

So when I hear studies like more educated families have guns in their homes, it doesn’t surprise me. The more educated are more likely to accept the lies spread by the NRA. Lies poorer less educated people are able to see through. These are just my observations , I never heard of any scientific studies about being able to tell truth better. That is a shame it is a subject that should be examined.

One way of telling a person is lying to you is by examining their motives. What are the NRA’s motives in saying the things they say. Is it really to protect gun owner’s rights? To me the answer to that question is no. I think it’s to protect gun makers’ rights , and to keep the money flow from these gun makers coming to the NRA. If the NRA was really about gun owners they would not be taking large amounts of money from gun makers. That to me seems like a two-faced set of interests that are opposed to each other. Either you’re there to help gun owners or your there to help gun makers. You can’t be both and do the right thing.

Somewhere the NRA has lost its way and became something it’s not meant to be.

Violence Will Never Bring Peace

An eye for an eye,does that really work? If you study history you would come to this answer,no.Look at countries like Israel who are in a perpetual war with its neighbors that I think will never end.They attack them, the other side attacks back,the only way that will end is in the destruction of both or total deaths of the other.It’s foolish to think violence will end in peace.Do you really think after the Iraq war,peace will be the product? If you do,you are dreaming.More violence will come from the war, maybe we created someone who hates us who will in the future bring violence upon our country again.It may of created an endless cycle of violence.

We should be following the examples of people like Gandhi or Martin Luther King who advocated nonviolence as a means to bring about peace.In our own country there are many to whom violence has become the answer,those who will do anything to keep their weapons of war.Gun control isn’t about the 2nd amendment but about stopping mass violence.Some can’t see that or are still living by the Old Testament Law of an eye for an eye.When if you are Christian,should believe, what Jesus said that you should turn the other cheek as the way to bring peace.

Peace can never be forced at the point of a gun,peace can only be made by mutual consent between two peoples.So anyone speaking about bringing war into some part of the world as a way of bringing peace they are misguided. But I am also not saying war should never happen,there are times when it is forced on us by people who are evil,like Hitler. People who brainwash the masses into a frenzy of violence,it may be the only answer then but that is a rare event.For everyday conflict violence should never be used.

Some people in our own country are talking about Civil War if they can’t have their Assault Rifles,should we all then cave in out of fear and let them keep guns of war. No, but should we then use violence against them to take them,no. We should should use the weapons of peace,we should speak out against them, we should shame them,or even shun them.But we should never let ourselves become like them,if we do they win.

The Land Of Immigrants

This country was built by people from other countries coming from across the world to build a new nation.The only true natives are the indigenous people who were given the name of Indians by the people who discovered this land from Europe.To me it is strange that they even call immigration a problem or want to deny the people from certain countries a place in our nation.Some of it is plain old prejudices ,against certain countries or peoples.Racism against Mexicans is a part of the problem, you do not hear much of a cry about people from Europe coming to live in America,but that happens every day.You only hear about Mexican people coming to America and that ,that is a problem.

If it wasn’t for people coming to this country either free or as slaves , America would not exist .I’m not saying slavery was ever a good thing, but it happened and it created what are known as African Americans, They are people who did much to create this new nation. Chinese immigrants are the reason we now have a railroad system across this country. That once created spread the country out and made it bigger. Each nationality that came to this country contributed something ,and that’s what truly makes us the greatest nation on earth.

Now that some Mexican people want to become part of this nation. Should we lock the door and say no, or should we like Lady Liberty, open our arms and let them in. I say let them in , no one should be barred from a chance to become an American.I know that most of the vegetables on my table have been harvested by migrant workers from Mexico. Some are exploited by landowners because they are in this country illegally and paid a pittance of what the work should be worth. That is slavery in just another form, and should be stopped. By giving them legal status of some kind it takes the power to use these people out of the hands of the corrupt.

Many people complain if legal status is given to Mexican people they will take all the jobs. But I see it as giving all of us a fair chance to find a job. If we are all legal it will put us on an equal footing. Right now because Mexican Workers can be exploited and not paid a minimum wage , they are more likely to get some jobs from people who cheat the system, that costs us all.

Senators On The Hot Seat

Oh Oh I guess some people got a little pissed off about some Senators tanking the Nation Gun Registration law.Now those Senators will have to answer to their true bosses the American People.It’s to easy for politician to forget who they’re really working for and sometimes they need a big reminder.So to politicians out there let me give you a few little facts you seem to not remember, your boss is not the NRA ,Rich People,or even Rush Limbaugh.Your boss is the people who voted your ass into congress in the first place.When 90 % of American want a national Gun Registration law without any loopholes you damn better pay attention.The reaction of not doing the right thing will be a swift kick in the butt out the door back to the nowhere you came from.Ask people like Newt Gingrich how that feels.

Easy to lose interest

Some people’s attention span seems to be very short.Too much 24 hour news burnout overloading their brain.Sometimes theres just to much noise to much bullshit,to find truth in the pile of crap.Some people are to easy to fool with the shiny crap shined up to make it seem like truth.NRA can lie with not many challenging those lies.

I sorry to say to keep the attention deficit people we have seem to become interested long enough to get gun control done is we need another mass murder by guns every couple of month.Is that true is it that easy to forget the deaths of children,is it that easy for us to not feel for others that we can just ignore the pain of others.It must be true cause we sat on our asses and did very little worth anything to bring about gun control.We did a lot of talk but talk is cheap.We signed a lot of petitions that the congress wiped their collective ass with.I saw no sit ins in front of the NRA buildings,I saw no people pitching tents up in areas to protest gun violence.We gave token protest with no real teeth,we gave wimpy nothing voice to NRA Lies.We need hippies from the past to teach us how to protest,we need to put it on the line to show we are serious about gun control.We need those who fought against wall street to fight for gun control.Will you sit in front of an NRA Building until they call the police to drag you away.Are your children live worth that or don’t you care.

Time to Throw The Bums Out

Republicans should be ashamed,some Democrats should be ashamed.It’s time to vote out these loser who only care about kissing the ass of the NRA.I am ashamed to say I’m an American sometimes, what do we got to be proud of our government, some of the people who do stupid crazy ass stuff.If you read my stuff I knew this was going to happen,to much mealy mouth ,not taking the fight to the NRA. I proposed to shame the NRA and take it to them no one supported me,I asked people to support the Million Dollar Challenge to the NRA. No one did. All this talk,all this crap that’s never worked before guess what it didn’t work again.If you don’t challenge them every time they say something that’s a pile of bullshit and let them get away with it, you let them win.No stupid petitions are going to get it done,no stupid writing letters to your politicians are going to do a dam thing.What is going to do something shunning members of the NRA ? If you know someone whose a member and your still friendly to them,you’re being stupid. No more being nice you got to get serious talk is cheap,action gets shit done.

Boston:Home Grown Nut or Foreign Terrorist

It wouldn’t surprise me one way or the other.So many people in our own country have been talking about starting a civil war,maybe this was a first shot.Could it be some foreign-born nut,yes there are many people out there in the world who hate us.

Filibuster Looms over Comprehension Background Checks

Filibuster Looms over Comprehension Background Checks

Some Senators on the Republican side have decided to block the passing of Universal Background Checks.Why are they doing this? It is because the NRA is holding a gun to their heads.Not in reality but figural .Those who are finding background checks too much to vote yes on are from states with large amount of NRA Members .It is time for the Senate, not to just to represent ,what are now fringe lunatic groups, but the majority of the American People. I wonder if the people who started this nation democratic government could have ever thought of the day their idea would become corrupted and be almost ready to die ,out of greed by the very people voted on to represent the people.

When was the last time you felt the government represented your ideals or interests? I can’t remember the last time, can you? When did the government that was by the people and for the people perish from the earth? Was it when the supreme court declared corporations as being a person? When money became the reason for votes being cast by your so-called representatives in the government.Should money not be the driving force behind policy in a government.Should what the governments purpose to be is making the lives of its people better.

Our government has lost its way,went off the map created by the founders and has become a government never envisioned by its creators.It’s a shame that a once proud nation has fallen so far into a pit of a hell were the greedy are kept.Greed has become what drives our economy and our morals.You can see it on TV,shows like survivor where people with the most greed are made heroes.Another show that I find disgusting is the Apprentice a show that goes by the excuse that it’s only business to commit immoral actions and treat other people with total disrespect unless their rich egotistical people like Donald Trump.To see people get down on their knees and kiss his ass is just too much for me.I feel ashamed for the people who brown nose this loser.Why has he been put on a pedestal? He is a morally bankrupt person who has made money on the backs of others.Is that what it takes to become a folk hero in this country?We can do better can’t we?
