Fourth attempt

I'd better remain cowed and not speak howdt with what i was gonna say, because the power that be hold all the cards and what i say can and will be used against somebody else, just because that's the way things currently work. The rights that we have do not conform to any responsibilities and the state insists on being our nanny in so many social contextx, that non-conformity is treated as a criminal enterprise. If we can avoid getting into the system - hah - right. If they don't have something legit, they are perfectly willing to make it up. As Joe Jackson once wrote - Everything gives you Cancer.

The current cancer is the total abject failure of our school system to teach people responsibility. The agenda is to provide enough disinformation that creates a clear picture that the only resource available for any problem solving is the state. Logic, reason, ethics, common sense, morality - these are just philosophy terms for those who don't have to make a living. If you work, the state will control every aspect of how you do your job, from the ergonomics of your chair to the amount of wage you see in your check. However - the miasma is unstable.

When everybody seems afraid to bite the hand that feeds - no other sources of food are apparent. The great riches of life are not constrained to a nine to five cubicle. But high school indoctrination is mostly lost on the brain dead - most sophomores have the skills necessary to carry themselves through life - if they understood that their actions would directly lead to their life results. But the analysis of cause and effect, of application of knowledge for practical utility, has been usurped by the need to follow the minutae created to keep people in their place - out of the threat of harm TO THE PTB, sold however as the threat of harm to themselves. Hence the drug war, to protect our kids from the evils of those meth heads - by thumping those heads and inconveniencing the rest of us. Free thought - cause and effect - action/reaction - planning and follow through - are not encouraged in public school because inquiry leads to independent thought and god forbid we should teach our children to think. They might ask a question that makes us think. So by denying youth access to information, we give them a simplified picture of how it is, and put them out there to be taken advantage of, until they catch on. Our college system ensures that youth don't catch on until they are well teathered to the teat.

So what to do, what to do. Grab ankles? That of course is the statist solution. Expand your mind and learn what is real? Not really possible, since we no longer have the tools to discern truth from myth. Question the assumptions? Logic support would be necessary, but perhaps there is some hope on this front. Prepare for a fascist future? Unless you really are brain dead, you had better. But really - if you think about the inherent laws of nature compared to the laws of man, should they be parellel rather than perpendicular? If the economy doesn't collapse - what is the likely outcome of the wars on drugs, terror, iraq, afghanistans, mom and pop stores, peace and life? We will all be dead. If the economy does collapse - what is the likely outcome? The wars go away, people fend for themselves, and we will all be dead.

Seems if the outcome is going to be the same, and we're all going to die eventually, then perhaps the time is now to stand up and call for an end to the nonsense that has become from the powers that be in control of the state. Death always happens at the end of life. Why allow the medical profession to extract so much value in a failing attempt to avoid an irreversible outcome. Control yourself - do what you have to do - and help free everyone from the shackles of political correct mumbo-jumbo that passes for discourse. We had best attempt to solve some of the real problems our species face as we ensure that though individuals die, life on earth survives for others to play an even-handed game of life. Time to stop chasing dollars to live to make dollars and to look seriously at what passes for knowledge and achievement.
