This is a rant, but a rant born of frustration from an informed person who has put so much of her life into exposing the truth about our deceptive and thoroughly corrupted government. She could be enjoying a life of blissful leisure, instead like Sisyphus she keeps on toiling up the proverbial mountain desperately trying to move the boulder of complacency and ignorance up to the summit of light.
In this piece she points to where our ruling class lawmakers should be looking to cut back on expenditures: expenditures that kill, maim, and torture people, ordinary people like ourselves except that most of them happen to live in foreign lands. But, of course, the lawmakers are employed to watch out for their One Percent employers' interests--not our interests such as maintaining a decent lifestyle, educating our kids, supporting ourselves in retirement, securing adequate health care, etc. All of our interests are now under attack. The directors of the One Percent are using the scare tactic of a government shutdown to get us to accept these attacks.
Meanwhile, far too many of us refuse to ask important questions and look for alternative sources of information; and instead, insist on maintaining the comfort of conformity to the views of the authorities. Too many of us are such good little Germans.
I can identify with her frustration because I deal with it myself nearly everyday.
