Trouble Maker asked:


I often ask ridiculous questions and make radical statements because serious matters are never given real consideration .
Truth is our government is bankrupting the future generations of millions of working Americans for no reason other then to support the ruling class .

As often as people with some wealth and education speak about real issues no one ever listens .

Should we have gone to Iraq ? Smart money says no unless you enjoy profits from wars . Easy to predict your investment will increase substantially and your kids will avoid service and that mostly poor kids will do the fighting .
Other kids from wealthy families are convinced by indoctrination that military service looks good for political careers and on your resume . You are an officer and in most cases pretty safe compared to the people you order around .

So I often wonder how many of you take serious the impact any war has and also if the economy is worth saving .
We have hundreds of billions of entitlements that are coming due soon and the beneficiaries are in large part those people who have worked for military contractors public education and police fire and services jobs paid for with tax dollars to begin with .

How much can we take from working people and still manage to convince them they should pay rent and shop at wal mart for crapy products that fall apart and poison their kids .

This use to be a great nation till it was looted by the so called educated people, from enron to the savings and loan scandal, our yale, harvard and Princeton graduates have looted this nation not because it benefited the people but because it lined their own pockets with the money those workers generated .

Now we have them shipping our jobs abroad and selling our infrastructure .

Most people could care less and every time I ask a serious question people complain I am a liberal or a communist or a conservative right wing nut .

So which is it people .
