OK, so I'll try to be moderate in my comments.
There is no country exempt of tyranny, the US included. Let me explain.
Tyranny is closely tied to exploitation.
Tyrant: in ancient Greece: usurper: harsh despotic ruler; any person enforcing his will on others cruelly and arbitrarily.
Usurper: to take possession of unlawfully or by force.
Despot: one who rules with absolute power; a tyrant: one who enforces his will on others.
So is the US government a tyrant? No it is not.
But does tyranny exist in the US. Yes it does, through the "English Law" concept of corporations, with it's lobbyist system.
Let me give you an example of financial tyranny meticuously disguised to be a law and tax, set up by corporate lobbyists, set up under the pretense that it is for your good and protection.
Insurance coverage.
Insurance is a good thing, especially if something disastrous happens to you or if you are a victim. Serves as a protection. No problem there.
But you see, they have made it law. An obligation, you have no choice, you have to pay for it. So then, since it's a necessity, why are they allowed to make huge profits from this. If you happen to be a victim, you'll have to fight damn hard to get your money and they'll fight damn hard not to give what is your due.
Sit down and think about it. Think about all the money that is funneled through this system alone, from your pockets to theirs. If this is not financial tyranny, I don't know what is.
It is said that 80% of the resources are controlled by the top 20%.
And surprise, your leaders are part of that 20%.
Small and medium business in this country were making money 30 years ago. Talk to them now and you'll get a different picture. They are plagued by government obligations set up to profit corporations.
So you see, slowly but surely, corporations are sucking up all your resources and money right in front of you eyes.
And you'll claim high and low that you are not exploited. I don't get it.
I've seen plenty of injustices in this country and refuse to lay down and not voice my opinion about normal business practices disguised for the purpose of extortion and tyranny. And you should too.
That's what I'm against.
These corporate tyrants should be removed just as Saddam was removed because they take and don't give back. They hide their agenda and pretend...yes pretend, it's all for your benefit..
I will fight for equality, in freedom and in financial prosperity, till the day I die.
Mark.
