Corpora-tology: Scientology’s BIG BROTHER

             In David Michael Green’s article on commondreams.org “I Have a Dream: 2010 Version he asks the question; what Barack Obama is dreaming?  Mr. Green, a professor of political science at Hofstra University, writes a scathing review of Obama’s entire presidency and the inadequacy and ineptness of his many broken promises of change.  To free thinking objective thinkers it seems that our government has been bought and sold to corporate interests no matter who wins elections.  True change comes to people realizing that our government’s very constitution, politicians, and political two party system remain employees of corporations, banking moguls, and media “corpora-tologists.”   In fact, our political system along with its global and domestic reach victimizes the world caught in a web of corporatology.

            Scientology is a cult which depicts movie stars and other public figures as enlightened individuals who are placed in elevated positions while cultist followers are dehumanized and subjugated as a slave class in comparison.  The entire world seems fair game for Corporatology.  For years our government slowly eroded by corporate banking interests pulled the wool over citizens’ eyes in the same likeness as cultist blinded by Scientology.  Certain higher “enlightened individuals” of ultimate wealth, power, and corruption purchase political puppets to do their bidding under the guise of spreading “Democracy” throughout the world.  It becomes almost a religious slur to speak out against the world’s allergic reaction to democracy.  Democracy is in theory a government for the people by the people.  Not in America!  Government is for the corporations and those in position to line their pockets like the Grinch stealing the Whoville’s last morsel of Christmas cheer.  Absolute power makes our government a corporate dictatorship rather than a democracy.
           
            The greatest moguls of our government today in corporatology are those who control the puppets handling the Federal Reserve.  The Federal Reserve has nothing to do with our government system.  Yet it remains a thick lambskin over the eyes of common people who believe this is a Federal Agency.  Those in oversight of the Federal Reserve are former banking CEOs and other paid agents of the banking industry.  The Federal Reserve is the first primary breach of our so called democracy.  It allows the very rich in the world of money to give themselves loans.  By creating value out of thin air banking moguls cause the citizens to pay them back with income tax payments.  Until this primary breach of democracy is eradicated, democracy will always consume the interests of banking moguls, corporate domination of the world’s resources, and not the interests of the people. 

            We the people of the United States live in a dictatorship to a headless and nameless cult.  We fight in the name of democracy yet succumb to capitalism.  Our government shamelessly spreads capitalism not democracy.  This spreads distrust of America all over the globe.  If America were truly a democracy then our message of help would be required all over the world.  A true “government for the people” would place the Federal Reserve accountable to the people and not those of corporate and banking interests.
           
            Big Brother firmly wrests control from the people and control of the entire system through the corporate news media.  Government propaganda permeates our society so completely that few people even see the transparent forces that control 90% of the world’s resources today.  In pursuit to dominate all world markets, a few moguls bend the rules in governments enabling their absolute power.  Unfortunately for the people, history shows that absolute power absolutely corrupts.   The corruption in government remains enablers of the most destructive criminal forces in our society today.  These criminal forces remain at large harming people all over the world without regard of human costs.  Democracy will remain a forgotten dream until exposure shows big brother as a criminal cult of evil capitalism.  Our democracy will remain a cult - not a true democracy.  The people should enable the check and balances, as intended by the Constitution, to expose those lining their pockets to keep democracy in place as an evil cult. 

           
            What checks and balances are in place when bombs fall on innocent civilians overseas?  What checks and balances help our loyal troops overseas being fed tainted water by Halberton?  What checks and balances exist to allow the people access to see the faces of those who lined their pockets with the banking bailout money of 2009?  What access do the people have to investigate all the documents and evidence the Warren Commission collected from the assassination of John F. Kennedy?  Investigations in our society become mere lip service allowing the real criminals to investigate themselves.  If the people had true access to these investigations outrage against the banking moguls would cause their undoing.  True democracy would cause those same moguls to lose their power over the people once and for all.

            The people must take back their government by taking back the control of the Federal Reserve.  Thomas Jefferson in 1798 said; "I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution - taking from the federal government their power of borrowing."  Our founding fathers struggled against banking moguls of those days who’s loyalties and patriotism where grounded not on loyalty to freedom and democracy but to only personal gain.  These same forces magnified and leveraged by the Federal Reserve and the federal budget remains the primary fuel that allows corporatology to spread its evil form of democracy.   Americans live in a world taken hostage by this alternate evil democracy and will never be free until the Federal Reserve bares the oversight by the people and eventually phased out of our society.

            This will never happen in America until the people revolt against every government rule allowing corporations to lobby government.  The Supreme Court should rule against any individual who acts as a paid agent of a corporation in the affairs of lawmaking.  Every law written in a back room committee by corporate lobbyists should be ruled unconstitutional.  Last minute votes in Congress on laws written in the back room should never happen until the full details are read and explained to the general public.  Corporations are dictatorships not democracy and its interests fall toward the stockholders of the few and not many people of consumption or even its own employees.  The stockholders become the landowners and the CEOs become the king while all else are in servitude as peasants.  Therefore corporations are not subservient to a government by the people for the people their interests rest at nothing other than domination of their particular market share.  In a true democracy the people will need to rise up against those who seek to rule for the profit of the few against the will of the many.  The only fair way to succeed as a democratic society is to handcuff those who seek domination of governments for the soul profits of the few.  The people insisting on diminishing government lobbyists remain a cause for all citizens of a free society.  This is the dream of our forefathers and the dream of true democracy.

Stuffing Their Pockets: For CEOs, a lucrative recession.

Another great article in this week’s Newsweek, this time by Rana Foroohar.  Newsweek has me so busy commenting on their stories I am giving Fox News a break about their biased news commentary this week.  In any case, I can not bear to watch Fox Programming for very long under the onslaught of biased and unbalanced commentary on a Fox News program.  So this article and Newsweek sports a chance for me to say job well done - instead of what are you thinking?

In Stuffing Their Pockets, Rana enlightens Newsweek readers on the stratification that rampant unchecked capitalism causes in our society.  Without checks and balances and government oversight the very destruction of our countries spending power comes to pass.  Our founding fathers put checks and balances in our three branches of government for a reason.  Capitalism is not a democracy.  Capitalism is a dictatorship.  Conservatives insist government should allow capitalism ‘to work.'  Being spoon fed that we are spreading democracy across the globe decade after decade is a lie.  We spread capitalism.    Bankers lend our corporations money to open up  new sweat shops in countries who have fewer human rights than draft animals trampling a rice patty.  The bankers sit back and collect free money, CEOs cut jobs from Americans and collect their big chunk of pie, and the working class is free to scrape by on barely enough to pay the cable bill and watch Fox News:Corporate Propaganda Unfair and Imbalanced.

Unfortunately for guys like myself, my job was cut out form under me in September 2007, a month after the beginning of the great housing bubble.  In my almost ceaseless search for my piece of the American Dream, I run into a nightmare of 'overqualified' and now due to the length of my job search I am considered through no fault of my own, unemployable. Thankfully, I refuse to pay for cable, which I can no longer afford anyways.  Each time I enter my father-in-law's home, who plays cable television and watches Fox News as if it was a religious sermon.  I can not stay long.  To me the sheer noise seems to scream at me like a bad dream of propaganda.

And so, history shows that banking and corporate interests are at odds with every average citizen.  CEOs making more money now in our ongoing recession than the profit-taking of the 90s are shameful to every out of work and hard-working employee of corporate America.  I think that every American should know that their employer's CEO is making 263 times what they earn on average!
“Meanwhile, American workers are taking home less in real weekly wages than they did in the 1970s.  So much for the idea that the financial crisis would somehow even things up by wiping out a good chunk of paper wealth of the plutocrats.  Indeed, stock prices have surged so much since last year that many CEOs, who receive a good chunk of their pay in equity, are wealthier than ever before.” Rana Foroohar writes.
This article is loaded with facts about how in general the more CEOs laid off workers the more money they made personally.  How can one sleep at night directly responsible for cutting thousands of family incomes while profiting and pocketing 50% more personal income?  The system seems ruthless and broken.  What the average person fails to realize is that they are the enablers of their own slavery.  As long as they go along with the system they stand to lose everything.  When at last they get angry and start making some noise, they stand to win battle after battle.  The power of numbers remains in the many, the people.  It is the corporate media that continues to propagate the broken record of this broken society.  Turn off that corporate biased television and start reading more balanced information.  Corporate America is feeding viewers more recession, job cutbacks, benefit rollbacks, and class stratification than the average American can stand much longer.  Get mad and start complaining.  At least ask questions and do not allow anyone to tell you that this is just how the system works. Mad As Hell!!
