Don't buy into the "News" - critique it. The masses move like tempestuous waves of hunger towards a shore of spoon shaped views; we have become addicted to woe and watching the world crumble around us - we channel the majority of our powerful minds into a torrential regurgitation of hand picked problems from the Media giants - and that's alright, just understand that problems exist all around and we're captivated by how intense they burn across our television and computer screens. Once you're aware you need not wait for the news to come to you - you go to the news and never take the same road twice in one trip. Like a fighter create angles to approach the problem and as a fighter step in with punches and step away with punches as well (the punch be a sharp mind yet open perspective). The filthy rich (gotta luv em) have royally fucked off their excessive leisure's, they lose one of many homes, cars, yachts etc - left with millions of equity and yet they cry. Now there are stories of those who took risks with their own money and have gone from being millionaires to delivering pizza's, sad but the poor lose jobs over BS all the time - where's their story of losing a below minimum wage job with no benefits or room for concrete growth (from french fries to drive thru window doesn't count). I'm all over the place I know - ultimately the recession is about the changes of the financial power dynamic (hinged upon the acquisition of debt) the middle class now has to adjust the trajectory of their american dream for the inevitable 'Long Shot' that the poor are stressed into gambling for the majority of their lives. As long as there are summer blockbusters, new automobiles (Toyota's are built in the U.S. by the way) and a plethora of athletes getting millions a year then there's no recession - it's called "THRIFTING" and it's only new to the illustrious rich who once made a mockery out of the blue collar worker on their way up and even on the way down they still seek to establish footholds on the backs of the poor. Step back and think: you need dirt, so someone digs that dirt up and lends it to you - there's a hole that you agree to fill based on the dirt lender's approval of your ability to do such; the dirt lender was only concerned with closing the deal and neglected you as a person without the means to live comfortably and make enough dirt to cover your peace of mind with enough left to fill the hole. push always comes to shove and the blue collar gets behind on dirt and that hole gets deeper per the lenders term for the enterprising and hopeful blue collar that believes in the American way of reaping what you sew. The hole eventually swallows the worker and what the lender has sewn is an even deeper hole from start that needs to be filled - the dirt dealer has a friend who deals dirt as well and agrees to buy the hole for the value it would have if it weren't a hole. the hole is now an asset based on a failed business transaction - maybe the lenders should be penalized and lose that loan if the upon re assessment it's found that the borrower wasn't qualified - it's akin to selling alcohol to a minor or giving a blind man a gun or putting a coin in a slot machine: it's wrong and the results can be fatal from a gamble that could never be justified. This is bullshit and don't believe the panic that's being sold. We trusted the rich - enamored by their wealth and associated their money with intelligence, they screwed us all the way to the bank and when the bastard child was born months later they're claiming it's not theirs...
You know that war means innocent lives are taken - regardless of what side you're on. You know that we only kill the poor - the rich are never bombed, only a version of their Harlem, Compton, SW Atlanta. You know that the education systems are imbalanced and creates distance between the opportunities available for the youth of upper and lower classes. You know that we are constantly trying to use a broken wheel to turn the world around - Feel free to think freely don't buy into the news use it carefully or else it'll explode in your face leaving you blind to all else except the sights and sounds that are sponsored for you to hear....
*I like the concept of successful athletes, music and movie stars alike are great for what they give us (an escape and something to aim for/ at) . I believe that you must fight the 'good fight' from the place you call home; there needs to be an adjustment at the bottom so that income inspires pride and if you're one of the assholes who financially fucked the poor and now is positive with H.I.P. (homeless in poverty) then you'd be able to live financially calibrated to have what you work for without the grim reaper of debt at your door.
I actually have nothing to justify keeping a Blog - no juicy gossip for what's told to me is only shared with the teller; share secrets only with the secrets keeper. the technical side is an over glorified wish list that we all share. the latest movies and music I'm too poor to afford an accurate "Jump" to share / critique so I'm left to state that I'm closing down on day three of a non-religious (organized) fast - day one was a impromptu leap and day two was a rich junkies stroll throughout the wee hours of the night; all I could do was think of the things that I was going to eat once it was over - woke up in the middle of day three (7 am; started fast late afternoon) and actually tried to think of food (out of habit?) and found the thoughts as stimulating as the Sex in the City movie (?) so if you've read this I applaud your patience and thank you for your time... Are blogs invalid if not updated daily?
