Truthful Commentary On the Economy

From where do you think, readers?

Before finishing up with the Globe and turning to the blogs, I wanted to put up
Mike Rivero of whatreallyhappened.com and his insightful comment on the economy because of the two horse shit posts below:

"That is the whole point; to drain the wallets of the common people.

The big lie of capitalism is that everyone can be rich. This is just not so. Capitalism requires an imposed wealth differential to function. Only a few people can be allowed to be rich. The vast majority of people must be kept poor in order to keep them working at the thousands of distasteful jobs society required to operate. If everyone were a millionaire, who would take out the trash, fix the sewers, pick the crops, or bury the dead? Choosing who is allowed to be rich and who is not is what politics is for
.

There is a second reason governments wish to keep their people poor. It keeps them helpless. Throughout the modern age, all revolutions have come from the middle class, which has the resources to mount a revolution and the time necessary to plan and conduct one. Even here in the United States, the push for Independence was carried out by the middle class. Paul Revere was a silversmith, Ben Franklin a publisher and inventor, John Hancock an insurance salesman, Thomas Jefferson a lawyer, Josiah Bartlett a doctor, and so on and so on. As the lies told by the government become known to the general public and distrust of the government continues to spread, the government out of a desire for its own survival and perpetuation sees impoverishment of the people as key to survival
."

And that explains those pieces of garbage from the Globe!

According to them, our impoverishment and enslavement is a good thing!
