To me, if you get well above market, and they always do, what's the problem.  So long as it's not going to line someone else's pockets.

Remember that little old lady that held up the construction of Cowboy stadium for a couple years because she wouldn't give in.  That turned out to be a huge deal, Jones lost a fortune because of her and the timing of the economy, not to mention all the legal costs.  They even moved the SB to Miami the year it was suppose to be in Dallas.

They have no cure for what we are to them. They will try everything, but they will fail.

Nothing runs in this body humana without the millions of tiny individual-cells that comprise its function. You, me, that guy you never met over there, that woman holding a baby. If they cut off one head, surely two shall grow to takes its place. We are a Hydra of 7 BILLION to their few thousand.

Revolution has gone Viral, my friends. There is no cure they can apply, be it violent or punitive. We hold all the Power.

2012: There is Only One Cure

I'm gonna be a happy idiot
And struggle for the legal tender
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
To the heart and the soul of the spender
And believe in whatever may lie
In those things that money can buy
where true love could have been a contender
Are you there?
Say a prayer for the Pretender.
Who started out so young and strong
Only to surrender.

There is irony, indeed in the fact that once white-bread middle class has begun to suffer the conditions people of color have endured for centuries, suddenly we give a damn.

I took several 'Revolution in History' classes and one of the most common denominators is when the middle class starts feeling disenfranchised.

Do I think there is going to be a revolution, no way, do I think the doors are opening for candidates aren't working for the uber-wealthy, sure, do I think Americans care enough to fight for it, not a chance.

Say what you will, nothing will change until 'we the people' start behaving differently, stop buying the products that are propping up the entire wealth structure.  Like the matrix, we are batteries feeding the machine that controls our own demise.   And like the movie, that machine isn't going down without a fight, which right now we are no where near waging.

Very few, given the choice are ready for the red pill, or is it the blue one, I forget which one is reality.  Reality means living within ones means, buying products made by Americans, even when the cost is approaching prohibitive, and most certainly the big one, shoveling our futures into Wall Street in the form of 401k's or some other like vehicle.

At the heart of feudalism is a basic idea common to any society with a warrior caste. Such men need to be provided for. In a simple economy this means that the produce of an appropriate number of peasants or serfs must underwrite the expenses of the fighting man.

We must keep the Pentagon budget equal to or above the amount all 50 state governments combined spend every years for the health, education, welfare, and safety of 310 million Americans, or there will be that much less to trickle down.

People need jobs badly. Libya is an emerging market, and Obama is doing everything he can do to save as many jobs for Americans in Afghanistan as he can.

By the end of 2012 after his drawdown he'll have only twice as many troops in Afghanistan as were there on the day he was inaugurated. It's not much, but it's progress, incrementally, gradually. It may even qualify him for a Nobel Peace Prize. And I can't even begin to guess how many civilian contractor jobs there will be there.

MacDILL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. -- The Obama administration plans to bolster the American military presence in the Persian Gulf after it withdraws the remaining troops from Iraq this year, according to officials and diplomats. That repositioning could include new combat forces in Kuwait able to respond to a collapse of security in Iraq or a military confrontation with Iran.

The plans, under discussion for months, gained new urgency after President Obama's announcement this month that the last American soldiers would be brought home from Iraq by the end of December. Ending the eight-year war was a central pledge of his presidential campaign, but American military officers and diplomats, as well as officials of several countries in the region, worry that the withdrawal could leave instability or worse in its wake.

After unsuccessfully pressing both the Obama administration and the Iraqi government to permit as many as 20,000 American troops to remain in Iraq beyond 2011, the Pentagon is now drawing up an alternative.

"I will promise you this: that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do.  I will get our troops home.  We will bring an end to this war.  You can take that to the bank."

My bank wants to increase fees charged on bad checks.

So the same wingnut fools first tried to keep out the public entirely, and then only allowed the public by forcing them (elderly, schoolkids, etc.) through metal detectors at all entrances.

Metal detectors to screen for guns.

But that's the public that can't have guns.  The legislators can, like they're sane.  They're not!
