You Are A Number

So here's my preachy post. Typically I post things in a different manner in order to allow people to think on their own. Sometimes we need to be slapped in the face though. Short, sweet and to the point.

You think the wealthy are upset over the unemployment issue we are having as Americans? Of course they aren't! That just means there are more Americans willing to work  jobs that they don't want just to support themselves or their families. The military is so full right now, they are literally finding reasons to kick people out. They are sitting up in Congress right now literally laughing at all of us. Raising their own salaries and taking advantage of their full retirements after only ONE term.

The powerful people in this country want ignorant citizens. People that will be the drones, the backbone, the workers of this country. They don't want you to question anything they do. All they care about is production. Forget your creativity, forget your goals and dreams, they want production. You are a number. A person used for the good of the powerful and wealthy. The only time they want you to have an idea is if it benefits them in some way. The fastest way to get someone's attention now-a-days is to show them a way to make money. Either that, or show them a way for them to gain some sort of power. This country is nothing more than people looking out for numero uno. Number 1. Themselves.

It's really too bad it has come to this. Capitalism is, in theory, a wonderful thing. Capitalism is what drives us to be great. It inspires competition and makes you want to work harder. However, introduce a lazy society into Capitalism and now you see what has happened. Instead of helping one another we profit off of the losses of them. We like seeing others fail, because that means we are doing that much better. It's sad really. A society of workers that root only for themselves.
