"A man cannot ride your back unless it is bent!" M.L. King

The wealthy and powerful, along with the corporations, and those who would prefer a capitalist, fascist, government over a democratic one, have used their criminally earned wealth to buy the Supreme courts of all of the states, and the Supreme Court of the United States.  All of these courts are now working together to institute their new rule of law for the wealthy. Their new rules of law only protect the wealthy and powerful from the filthy masses (AKA, We the People), not the other way around.
They have purchased the power of the courts and have succeeded in placing the burden of proof of their criminal activities on the back of a court that has already been captured by their heinous, traitorous, activities. They are hiding in their money lined holes, and are protected from the reach of real democratic law by hiding (again) behind the skirts of those whom they have purchased and put into high office for exactly that purpose. Of, by, and for, the people is the part they do not like, and the part they are determined to remove from our constitution!
  Our elected representatives have created a 'viper's nest' of powerful entities that are out to destroy all democracy's world wide, and their main aim is to reboot the world's economy into a new world economic order where they rule without the masses of people having anything to say about what they do.
  They have become insane with their wealth, and the power it allows them to have over others and over the law, and as so many intelligent folks know, and Lord Acton has written, that that kind, and amount, of power produces insanity and corruption regardless of what the bearer of such wealth and power thinks. But have no doubt that these same insane, wealthy, powerful, folks think they are sane. Just ask them..
  They will tell you how much power they have over you with their police forces, and their military, and they will point those weapons at you and use them on you at the first, and every, chance that they get!

We need a living wage for most workers!

Why all of this attention is being paid to a minimum wage I have not figured out yet. Who wants to work for some totalitarian employer for a minimum wage? We need a living wage, and if the so called minimum wage had been tied to inflation since 1970, that wage would now be over $21.00 an hour. This minimum wage stuff is the downfall of the middle class and the destruction of the already poor and homeless. It is all about making more money for our totalitarian ruling class!

Keystone XL and the American Police State!

If Obama approves the pipeline, it will be built over our dead, or jailed, protesting bodies. All of our police are now basically active military units that go after legal citizen protester's and protest groups in the US just like we were terrorists, criminals, and law breakers, working for the Taliban, or Al Qaeda. Our president's main tactic is to use police and military force to send a powerfully threatening political message to We, the People, that the USA is sure as hell no democratic nation anymore. Democracy now means that you will do as you are told, mind the police, obey the law even if it is wrong, keep your mouths shut, and breath the foul air, and drink the stinking water, or we will put all of you in prison and torture you!. Was Christopher Dorner right?
