you say you want a revolution
well, you know
we all want to change the world

me, i'd be happy with a better class of rubble to scrabble through. like uncle caca used to say:

you ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow

First step to change is knowing what is going on. That in itself is not so easy since so many vested interests work so hard to disguise it. Sometimes on the ship of state it is hard to know the crew from the pirates, since the leadership of both belong to Wealth Bondage, and fly the jolly roger in our secret club house. What looks like ordinary unloading of the merchandise in a port of call may actually be piracy, if you follow where the public goods end up in private hands, even though the unloading is personally supervised by the Captain and Vice Captain wearing enameled flag lapels and calling anyone who questions them a traitor. When we ask how the Captain and crew did during their tenure, you might say badly since the ship lost so much money, but you could also say, "They made out like bandits," if you follow where the money lost went. "Mission accomplished," indeed. Same ship, same drill, new crew soon.

But ... would it fly on CNN or Fox ? Isn't that the real question ?

Phil

If it is not on TV it is not real. Thank God advertisers are willing to support reality maintenance at no cost to us, the general public. Costs them billions and we get the benefits for free.
