Foreign, Fascist, Phenoms
I have been babbling away about train noise for going on two decades. That's twenty years of intense train funk, which actually began in 1990 with the inception of AC Traction. No one in the general public is much interested in hearing negative feedback about something they feel they have no control. No control. You can't argue with stupid, and stupid we are. Maybe a few of the older generations know the deal, but they are dying out. For some reason this Christmas with the blooming of my tray of six Christmas cactus, I have had a reckoning. I guess my cruise ship training at "Greeting and Smiling" has brainwashed me to believe that in the end everything will turn out alright. At least on the seven seas the general adage is that everyone is supposed to have a nice time. Whenever a grievance arises, the crew are taught to as quickly as possible to "Own the problem." Whatever the cost solve the problem for the guest. In the hospitality industry or leisure world, all problems are solvable. There never will be anything so great to keep a family from enjoying their vacation, except possible a disable engine or an outbreak of the Norovirus. For the most part living in this forced happiness oils the gears of profitability. The cruise companies are prospering, and Americans are taking their leisure time away from the homeland. Is that because the homeland has become a drag? My reckoning this Christmas not quoting the words of Donny Hathaway was that America has become like she is for a reason and a purpose. There is no happenstance involved. Not only are we fighting a class war again akin to the class war fought during slavery, we have had our American Dream legislated out of our government. The laws necessary to protect the underdog and to provide opportunity in the Capitalist socioeconomic system are been repealed. The social and economic programs of proceeding presidents, fair and honest presidents who cared about middle America, have all but been reversed. America has become a third world country without our even knowing. The easiest example of the abandonment of the people, the common people, is the support of small business. When the telephone system became too big for the federal government to manage they chose to break it up into smaller factions. They were called "Baby Bells." Our government did the same thing with Microsoft in the more recent generation. Antitrust legislation was an important part of the checks and balances system of American capitalism. Corporate monopolies were not healthy for the economy, because they stifled healthy competition of commodities. Capitalism needs stimulation and competition to keep her products great or even marginal. When you outsource all of your manufacturing to China, all of the products are the same and mediocre. CEO's will tell you that they cannot afford to pay wages in the United States, so they took their plants to foreign lands where their economies are so weak workers will slave for pennies on the dollar. This was not good for America. We have been sold out in one fell swoop, and now another car company is shuttering doors on domestic facilities amid talk of huge profits in their company. There has been a concerted effort to eradicate God from American consciousness and stifle the economic opportunities of the common man. This was happening during the Obama administration, because many of the repeals of legislation took place under George W. Bush. I am not sure he knew what he was doing, which will be evidenced in the new film "Vice." He just did what others told him to do, and as in most cases if you do what other people say, you will get burned. Bush burned most of middle America's opportunities through the repeal of corporate regulation. Trump did the same thing when his administration repealed "Net Neutrality." I'm not sure anyone knows what that actually means, but the essence of it has come to fruition in an extremely short period of time. Internet service providers now control the flow of information on the web, both content and speed. Hello Red China. The system in America purposefully has been rigged, and the rigging has escalated during Trump's tenure as president. Not only did he hand corporate America a twelve percent profit with absolutely no work on their part, he favors the oligarchy which has come to power in America. The Millennial generation has no clue to understanding our plight, because they were the thugs of the effort. Pay them off with tech jobs, and keep their minds polluted with childish cartoon commercials and video games. They could not mount a coup if their lives depended on it. My squawking about train noise is legitimate, but the issue is not frivolity, fancy, or delusion. It is a life or death issue that can seal the eventual extinction of the human race. It is so grave and far reaching that to expose it would mean an exchange of power. They say America has no work force. Joe Biden says we do not have enough skilled workers to handle America's chores. How is that possible? It is possible because we used the millennial generation to accomplish this task, to eradicate God from the consciousness of America and to limit social and economic opportunity for the middle and lower classes. The oligarchy, foreign fascist phenoms immigrated to America and quietly purchased our American institutions. They implemented a hostile takeover of distinct American values with evil. We are living it.
