America 7.0

[Cyrano]

Our country has reinvented itself many times. There have been ages of robber barons, there have been ages when the middle class came into its own, and now we are in an age that almost makes the robber baron-era look benign.

What most people don’t understand is that the powerful, the greedy, the “masters of the universe” want one thing and one thing only. More. They will never get enough. They are a nightmare out of the “Terminator” movies. You can’t reason with them, they have no mercy and no empathy, they have no consciences, and they don’t give a damn who lives and who dies, as long as they can attain they’re goal of owning it all.

They own banks, they own Wall Street, they own our political class, and, like it or not, they own us.

Unfortunately, far too few understand that these people are our deadly enemies. We are nothing to them but sheep to be lead to the slaughter.

So let me get to the bottom line. Will most people ever “get it?” Will we create a resistance movement? Do we stand a chance against them?

This scenario has been played out time and time again since humans started organizing civilizations. Maybe this time things will turn out differently. Although, given the number of Tea Party lunatics in this country today, who knows?

What do you think?

1. I think we will be forced to reinvent ourselves due to oil depletion and

climate change.

2. It's comming

The first whispers have started

[lunatica]

3. We have no choice but to reinvent ourselves or fail as a country

I think we'll reinvent ourselves and move forward and face our problems and overcome them. We have to. Going back will destroy us.

4. Well,

America 3.1 was ok, as was XP.

Hoping 7 works out.
