Your health, liberty, freedom and pursuit of happiness
Recently I read an article on Mother Jones about contaminated genetically modified corn and another article elsewhere on GMO contaminated alfalfa. These are just some of the examples of how we are being screwed royally. Not just in the food supply but in so many other ways.
Every American Citizen is being impacted by GMO'S, the Farm Bill, The Patriot Act, Corporate welfare, Banks, Wall street and greed!
If you believe in the right to free speech and the United States Constitution & the Bill of Rights, then wake up, your eyes are closed. You and I are all now monitored in the USA. Most people know this and don't even care. For Gods sake the news has been talking about it openly and so it is what it is. Incredible!
So why care? Because of the fear factor that's why? Anything you say or think good or bad can come back to haunt you and your family for ever. Do you see that?
Facebook, Twitter and all Social Media is a convenient tool that can be and is most likely being exploited every second of every day. We apparently love to give away all our information. We also like to express our opinions and beliefs. Right? So how many dare to speak? Fear is a means to control, don't you think?
Someone once said.. "The people should not fear the government. The government should fear the people". Now that's what I call true checks and balances.
So what should the government be afraid of? They will always fear a united citizenry! Not a citizenry armed for a battle with weapons, but one that is tired, abused and seeking a level, just playing field.
We the people are the government we are in control right?
Really? Not when we are splintered into all kinds of groups. To divide is a tactical maneuver to efficiently deal with numerous opponents. Do you see this today in the so called news media and in politics?
Wake up and demand that your government represent you the people and not allow lobbyists to influence that which is against your best interests and your rights under our constitution.
Speak out and hold legislators accountable with the power of your voice, your vote and by uniting people not dividing them. If you care, then you must lead the way, then represent the people. Too often we allow elected individuals to be our leaders. That's a bunch of crap. We vote and they direct our wishes for our benefit. "Yes keep dreaming you are saying right now as you read this." Am I right? You are laughing at me because I don't live in the real world and I want to change it.
Money may not buy you true love, but it will get you elected. The impact of the Farm Bill and many other laws primarily benefit large multinational corporations and do nothing to help citizens. The purpose of these laws is to make money and lots of it. The health and true well being of the citizenry is not important when these laws are passed. If they did then why are so many of us sick and dying in such an advanced nation as ours? Why is the middle class evaporating and why are most of us working harder than ever to survive?
Why is healthcare out of reach and out of control in cost and care?
I always say profit is not a dirty word, but don't you think greed is?
Can anyone compare the dollar figures for corporate welfare to welfare food programs?
I wonder why Corporate welfare seems to be okay.
So here is the part you might call me a lefty right? No, don't do that! We are falling into the label trap, divide and conquer and we all lose. Some will win but are you one of those winners? Do you think so really? Stay with me and think please. The American people are not intentionally brain dead. New technology is just making more of us brain dead everyday. We walk around tethered to a smartphone or other gizmo we can't seem to put down and forget. For Gods sake Mine is in my hand more than I care to admit. Why?
Okay let me conclude by saying that as long as we stay united as people on the issues affecting our health, freedom and right to earn a decent living, start a business and keep the monopolies away, we will be able to live the American Dream. Everything else we can figure out later.
Now go plant a fruit tree or some veggies. Make sure the label says GMO Free or USDA organic. So far USDA means non GMO. Wonder how long that will last?
Should I push the SHARE button? Hell yes, no fear people!
Peace,
