Now, anyone with money has power over me and my life.

What's most disturbing is,...GWB will make economic slavery look sweet (or try to do so) in his address to a nation that has suffered tremendously under his RULE.

Why would any NORMAL person feel safe, right now?

1. I agree completely ... this entire administration has destroyed any last illusions of mine

... about the world being somewhat in balance.

These people at the helm hate us and want us crushed. The idea that we can reason with such people
is ludicrous.

3. I sincerely believed the Clintons were bridging,...while they played to,...

,...the most barbaric among us.

Maybe, they became TOO ENTRENCHED to the fascixts to realize what was happening.

We are (suppose to be, not entirely) PROTECTED from predatory businesses.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SHOULD BE PROTECTED FROM PREDATORY POLITICS!!!!!

2. Safe? Shit, I'm even afraid to open my 401K.

This is a mess.

4. then it was a false sense of safety

if you think the rich have only had power over you since Bush's election then I hope you're very young.

5. I certainly don't feel threatened or in any danger.

People with money have always held the power. What exactly is it that you are afraid of?
