Joseph O'Shaughnessy.... Drifting

We're drifting.

There are no meaningful jobs being created. Only simple replacements for jobs that were lost. No new industry. Not with U.S. jobs attached.

That is not progress. Of course, the goal of the industrial complex in this country is not progress any longer.

The goal is maintenance. Fiefdoms in health insurance, cheap, unhealthy fast food and from petty products made in China and sold at WalMart.

As a nation, we are barely able to find the resources to put our most vigorous geographic sector back together after a direct hit from Mother Nature.

And all the while the Neo-Fascists hold on tightly to the seat belt of low taxes hoping to ride out the tumult coming from the latest election.

They throw ridiculous charges about Libya against the wall as their latest distraction. Silly, stupid and wasteful. But if you own media, you may as well use it for your propaganda.

Fascists do not go away. Vermin? Well, what do you call someone who would deny average citizens health care for an additional fourteen cents on a pizza that is killing them with heart disease?

This current episode in the rebirth of Fascism is not about Obama. It is about maintaining the wealth that supports one entire segment of the population at the expense of another, larger segment.

It is about preventing jobs, not creating jobs.

Obama is merely the symbol, not the target. We are the target.

We, the American people, the tired, the poor, the wretched refuse of this teeming shore.
