Something on my mind before I log off. The Supreme Court decided that corporations are people, and have the right to spend or donate as much money as they wish in any election. Their money decided the recall election in Wisconsin.
The unpopular Republican Governor survived an attempt by the voters to remove him. This after he took away collective bargaining rights in that state. Workers are basically screwed out there now.
We're two countries again. As once regionally, and with race now openly with class. Same old story the have's kicking the have nots in the teeth, and laughing as they drive away.
Yeah it's far more complicated than that. Still I feel a terrible weariness. If I were twenty I'd be out there raising hell. Now I'm too cranky, and tired. Yeah in time there will be more economic Justice in our country. Though I won't live to see it. It's going to take 30, 40+ years to happen. Just as the third wave of the Civil Rights Movement took just as long from the 1960's to now to show at least some visible fruit.
Geez it's all so simple. Just be kind. Just share, Just laugh together. Sounds like a quaint sermon, but it's still true. It's so damned simple, but we always do it the hard way.
Well here we go again.
As for me,..to bed.
Stay tuned.
Goosd thots there, Sid...

Greetings comrade. I'm assuming you said "Good thoughts". Hey we do what we can.
ReplyDeleteLike I sez if I was 20 I'd probably be out there putting sugar in plutocratic gas tanks right now instead of sitting in front of this tool of the devil posting stuff.
Hey why don't you email me a "Guest Editorial". I'm asking my pals to do this. I'll post it up. Peace.
