Why I Hate The Poor

Why I Hate The Poor – is it time I Took A look at myself?

A few times people have seen my views to empower people, as a hatred of people. So I am forced to take stock and have a look at myself and my perhaps flawed thinking. Here I try to understand: Why I hate the poor.

Because I think all citizens, especially the poorer members of society having near half of their income taken forcibly from them by the state via income tax and VAT, I am called ‘crazy’. I think people spend their own money best. Now how this equates to ‘Why do you hate the poor?’ I can’t quite grasp.

Regardless of what the law says, I trust individuals with their own money more than proven incompetents.

Why I Love Conspiracy Theorists

Why I Love Conspiracy Theorists – The Mainstream Attack

Anything that ruffles the feathers of mainstream media and politicians I have to support. The days of monopoly corporate, or state sponsored news and propaganda are drawing to a close, I hope, perhaps that’s the reason there is panic from governments the world over to control the Internet, to reduce our access to alternative media. Mainstream media is about ratings for the empire and fame for reporters all facilitated by drama. It is important to realise, mainstream news is not news, the delivery chosen is not intended as news, it is intended as entertainment. There is more money in entertainment. The highs and lows of emotions, the release of chemicals in the brain has been described as an addiction that keeps us tuning in and distracts us from any effective solution or alternative.

We need a thinking questioning population.

Do You Believe In Freedom?

So You’re Against The Nanny State – Do You Believe In Freedom?

This is a simple question, and there is no ‘wrong’ answer. The purpose is to help us find any inconsistency in our beliefs. The question is: Do you believe in freedom? Ultimately this question boils down to ‘do you want peaceful adults to be free to make their own choices?’

Now many will of course think ‘No, I don’t want people free to make their own choices.’  Well, although I disagree with you, I do respect you for having the awareness to make that statement.

You cannot create equality by treating people unequally.

The Revolution Happy Meal: Instant Dependency

The Revolution Happy Meal: Instant Dependency

I could start this post with ‘The people are taking back power in Greece!’, but that’s a bit presumptive, so how about:

Are people taking back power in Greece with the rise of Syriza? Is Spain next to address corruption and look out for ‘the poor’ with one year old political party Podemos? Why are the Irish marching against water charges, with Sinn Fein (political wing of terrorist organisation the IRA) just about the most popular party?

The common element in each of these cases is they all hold extreme socialist policies. So when the people get angry and feel dis-empowered, they veer Left. So is this the revolution that has been in the air? Will these politicians remove the stranglehold of power and massive wealth from the 1%, to use the language of the day?

Marching is not enough, protesting is not enough. Waving a flag and demanding someone else make the important decisions does not make you a revolutionary.
