Divide et impera?

Divide and Conquer. The Washington ruling class (equally consisting of Republicans and Democrats) has perfected this strategy. It makes no difference what party is in power, the oligarchical trifecta of banksters, politicians and crony capitalists have you precisely where they want you. Firmly under their thumb. The media who are a wholly owned subsidiary of the ruling class and are permanently in their back pocket, are enthusiastic supporters of this little arrangement. Six companies now control 90% of the news outlets. Thank God for the internet.

The political class reminds us constantly of the importance to be “involved”. Translated, that means, “give me your energy, time and money”. They want us to show up at caucuses, conventions, parties and parades and extol the supposed virtues they espouse, all the while having their hands firmly in both of your pockets. They want to make sure we get out and vote, because if only they and their party are in power will we get the change we so desperately desire. However, the change never comes.

In Minnesota, my home state, a bipartisan coalition (the media loves bipartisanship because it’s always the Republicans caving to the Democrats) decided to rob the taxpayers to build a billion dollar stadium for billionaire owners and millionaire players to give us our circuses. This is a classic example of the political elite portraying themselves as different from their opponent in public, but behind closed doors at the Capitol, they are colluding to develop new and exiting ways to hold a gun to your head, steal from you and give the money to their friends.

Those who know me know I have renounced the Republican party. I’m tired of getting patted on the back the day before the election, only to get kneed in the groin the day after. Don’t play their silly little games any more. They will never do what they say and they will not change anything. They have no track record of following through with their rhetoric either in Minnesota or in Washington. This is by design.

The media orchestrated squabbling between the politicians and/or the “analysts and strategists” is a clever ruse to get you to take sides. The Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street have more in common than the media would have you believe. We need to unite around the idea that we are free men and the ruling class needs to be abolished. Stop participating in their mind-control schemes.

Remember the words of Jesus, “every city or house divided against itself shall not stand”.
