@Salihovicable I hate when people say that, we are built as a REPUBLIC, Democracy is evil man... Idk how people dont recognize that.

@pimpinpinkpony Ya, but many great thinkers have been wrong. Some great thinkers actually used to believe in logical fatalism: since atoms can't choose, neither can we, since we're made of atoms. That was proven false by quantum mechanics. So, I wouldn't be fatalistic...just try and see what happens.

Strikes and protesting: those will help, and voting and bitching won't. You're totally right. The elite analyze and prepare for these mini-wars that happen every 40 years. They wrote about one (late 60's) in the "Crisis of Democracy" by the Trilateral Commission. They're depending on propaganda....soon they'll know its limits....we'll show them.

havent chuang tzu and a bunch of other old smart dead people talked about how you cant change anything because people who are busy being distracted by acquiring more and more material things will always do what they do?

here's how i see it. if you choose to stay home and work, because it's a hard economy and hard to have a job to fund you, you've helped wallstreet, even if you disagree with them and all their money gaining,the police brutality all of that stuff, it doesn't change. Because that's one less person at the rally, one more job that's feeding wallstreet. even if you disagree with it, you're inadvertantly helping them

The government isn't just an extension of the people; it's the extension of the public enterprise on private affairs. Without the government, the public wouldn't exist.

I'm against both

You recognize you just made an argument against corporations right?
-
Lol I'm almost certain that the government is going to be corrupted regardless of corporations. It's in corporations NATURE to want to make money and by any mean; blaming them is like yelling at a dog for taking a shit on the carpet when you know it doesn't know better.
The government and its crony politicians is what is wrong with this nation. We have allowed the Federal Establishment to become too powerful to a point where it has the ability to get involved in the market

This really inspired me, I know how much abuse they suffered but i never knew exactly how hard it really was. This too makes me proud of my country which is something of a rare occasion, I don't have money but there is an Occupy Albany (my city). I will do my utmost best to find a way to record myself there. Thanks Paul.
