Post 221A: "The Rich do none of the work, pay none of the taxes, have all of the money. The Middle Class do all of the work, pay all of the taxes. The Poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class, keep 'um showing up at those jobs!" - George Carlin
It's interesting how people at the lower end, common people, are now expected to have see-through backpacks, clear lunch boxes, and see-through transparent lives, as if they are suspected terrorists. While those at the top of the food chain, the wealthy and influential, those who run the country and reap most of the benefits from the supposed "free" society, live lives shrouded in secrecy. They live lives where underhanded and or illegal business deals are made and the common people, who are treated as suspects, pay the price, financially and emotionally (psychologically).
Those who have something to hide do hide. It is the nature of power and Leaders to be more afraid of their own people than of any foreign invader, ("keep your friends close, your enemies closer"). Unfortunately, when one is focussed on ones own as an ememy one looses track of a true threat. This is the case, unless there is no true threat other than that which those in control have manufactured as a distraction.
It is unfortunate that most rank and file working class conservatives have had the wool pulled over their eyes. They dutifully listen to Republican mouth-pieces such as the drug-addict, Rush Lumbar, jabber on about "the public" owning and controlling the stockmarket. The public may own the majority of the stock, but they certaintly do not control it.
If one owns, I believe, more than two and a half or three percent (%) of a particular stock one must file a takeover bid. There is the belief, which I share, that the very rich in this country , na the world, control the government and the economy through the stockmarket. The way this works is, if you are a wealthy investor who owns one percent of a particular stock, and I am a wealthy investor who owns one and a half percent of that same stock, together we own two and a half percent of that stock. If we get together with other wealth investors who own large percentages of that same stock we can buy and sell that same stock to control the market, as far as that stock is concerned. If we have our tentacles in every major stock we can conceivably control the market and there-by the future of a country, the prospeity of its people and weald political influence enough to get those elected which we wish to be elected that would be "favorable" to our fake and fixed imitation of a Capitalist system. This kind of "collusion of investors is, of course, illegal.
