No Russian or Chinese or Muslim can destroy our world quite as efficiently as our Capitalistic Corporations are doing.<br /><br />just thanks Exxon, BP, Chase, Goldman Sach, Peabody Coal and the rest of those "Profits for the Few, Pollution for the Rest" Free Market Capitalists. after all, who needs clean air, clean water when we can have millions and billions of Rich White CEOs making Profits for this quarter. <br /><br />Success American style.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14431563340257709642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7806136543904112143.post-62051413223681650662016-08-22T16:37:51.070-05:002016-08-22T16:37:51.070-05:00Maybe it's starting to sink in that this count...Maybe it's starting to sink in that this country is in a hell of a mess. Look at the candidates for the primaries for each of the two political parties for President. Aside from Bernie Sanders there were no good choices. If those others are the best we can offer, we're sunk. Yes, there is Elizabeth Warren, but she believes she can be of more help in the Senate than to be Vice President and I think she's right.<br /><br />And President Obama is still set on getting TPP passed into law -- an action I believe is catastrophic.<br /><br />It's getting to the point of no return on Global Warming.<br /><br />Even those of us who care desperately about these issues cannot do anything about them -- we're too busy just trying to keep our heads above water. And speaking of water, the oil companies are going to keep on fracking until they eventually ruin all of our water, not to mention the possibility of causing terrible earthquakes.<br /><br />There is little to no hope that we can do anything about any of these issues. And we've still got boots on the ground in Iraq, Afghanistan, AND SYRIA. Guess I should be glad I'm pretty old and won't have to deal with this stuff very much longer...Classof65https://www.blogger.com/profile/15620524862669295761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7806136543904112143.post-63077442252815125112016-08-22T10:21:59.885-05:002016-08-22T10:21:59.885-05:00Is it just me or does anyone else notice the whole...Is it just me or does anyone else notice the whole system is just 'mailing it in?'<br /><br />In a world that is crumbling before our eyes, nobody is doing anything while those running for public office remain mute, not even acknowledging the problem(s).<br /><br />Maybe they're close to perfecting that drug they fed everybody in 'The Giver', the one that turns you into a robot, still able to function but unable to care/make your own choices.<br /><br />Or am I thinking of 'prozac'? Which pretty much turns you into a lifeless lump of flesh...but you don't care!<br /><br />Is that the problem?Gegnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01918737715343158105noreply@blogger.com
