The gun control question...

If you can see Russians as human, and treat them as fellow humans, then their anger is justified, particularly regarding American bankers... This is why Jesus Christ was a legit super-genius, he knew what the root of the problem was over 2000 years ago, and whose table needed to be overturned in the temple -  a problem that unfortunately keeps getting resurrected...

Defunding American Social Security is the first major step toward killing Social Security entirely. Not a bad strategy if you are Wall Street or a Wall Street wannabe. But a terrible strategy if you are a Nation. In terms of reducing American poverty, the most successful government program in American history. But Wall Street desperately wants to sink in their fangs...

By the time an elephant gets to full size, a thin rope (that in reality wouldn't stand a chance to hold it back) is enough hold it from escaping back into the wild... this happens to humans too...

The meaning of Star Wars...

Racism is just a vehicle, never the destination. Power itself, is the destination - and power corrupts. White Indentured Servants aka white slaves, were first brought to America in 1607, over a decade BEFORE the first black slave was brought to America (1619). If you get sucked into fights over racism, once racism no longer serves the corrupt, they will just switch the bait, as you sweat the treadmill chasing cheddar - but getting nowhere.

A classmate of mine is from Burundi, a small country between the Congo and Kenya, he is African, born and raised. He has a 24/7 live-in house maid there. You know how much she gets paid to do absolutely everything? 20 bucks American, a month! Less than 6 cents per hour. Skin color has nothing to do with anything here. You see she is Hutu, he is Tutsi. I asked him, what's the dif?

He said, "Oh the shape of her nose (as a Hutu), the size of her forehead (as a Hutu), her Hutu height, etc." If skin color can't be used, the corrupt will find some other excuse to use and abuse. Don't be a chump, know what's being played. Otherwise you are just shooting at the fog, making the oppressive corrupt so very happy...

Does the American Dream exist anymore? Is rags-to-riches still possible? Or are the rare examples of rags-to-riches just a cheaper way to block the majority from even asking for fair slice, suckered into believing they will be "that one" lottery winner?

Human slavery still exists in so-called developed advanced nations...

The worst problems are one's you cannot even acknowledge as problems... If you want you and yours to live in the Hunger Games, Neoliberal Reaganomics is the sure way to get there...

Tommy, the most hated Canadian by the Canadian Oligarchy and Plutocracy in the nation's history...
