It is spring time; a time of resurrection and alter. The solar rises a little bit larger within the sky daily to awaken flora which responds by sprouting recent, colourful new blossoms. Critters exit looking for new mates and take part on this superb course of. In America, new elections have been scheduled and politicians are out shopping for votes by making empty new guarantees for change, if solely we might elect them.
I'm sitting on the porch swing watching a reasonably a purple Cardinal assault himself in a automobile mirror. With flapping wings, slashing claws and a punching beak, he flies towards the mirrored glass crying out in anguish and frustration. The little chook has apparently laid declare to the breeding rights on his little acre of his and is decided to drive off any rival who dares to intrude on this area.
Mr. Cardinal jogs my memory of the common American voter. Conditioned by fixed publicity to a rigorously scripted charade, he believes two-party system exists in his nation. One get together, he's instructed, will defend and defend him towards the asserted intrusions of the opposite. He should due to this fact select an ally to assist and, after all, an enemy to battle towards by default. Then, having chosen, he's to proceed to beat himself right into a stupor hopelessly attempting to unravel an issue hidden past his potential to understand.
Behind the trying glass, nevertheless, each imaginary events have merged and aligned themselves with a 3rd to kind a syndicate which operates solely to serve its personal pursuits and never these of the American voters. The syndicate, led by a handful of worldwide bankers and monetary speculators, appoint profession politicians to positions of energy and use a community of personal banks to manage them. Each few years, the voter is introduced with a two-ringed circus and allowed to vote for, and be dominated by, a set of politicians who owe their allegiance to the syndicate that positioned them in positions of energy.
For the bankers and politicians, it's a win-win system so long as Mr. Cardinal is stored unaware of his function within the recreation. The banker prints limitless paper debt out of skinny air and lends it to the politician who spends it to boost his private energy. Mr. Cardinal is then taxed to repay the debt, at curiosity. The banker turns into mega-rich, the politician turns into mega-powerful and Mr. Cardinal, believing that he's being served, turns into enslaved.
This isn't a brand new, ingenious system. It's an outdated, corrupt one which exists each time a folks lose their ethical compass and bow low to others who proclaim themselves to be the masters. A number of hundred years in the past, Thomas Jefferson warned of the implications of following this course:
"The fashionable principle of the perpetuation of debt has drenched the earth with blood, and crushes its inhabitants underneath burdens ever accumulating. If the American folks ever permit personal banks to manage the problem of their foreign money, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks... will deprive the folks of all property till their kids wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered... the issuing energy ought to be taken from the banks, and restored to the folks, to whom it correctly belongs."
In America, and the world over, persons are starting to get up and the syndicate is, after all, starting to punish their dissent. This is hoping that Mr. Cardinal quickly realizes that the enemy he fights is himself and decides to place his efforts to higher use.
