See? That's why it's not capitalism as people are not for sale. A person has ownership of his or her services and enters into a contract freely. Or declines the contract.

I hate to break the news to you. From their viewpoint, we are not people. We do not rate that high.

The Soros' of this world see us as livestock that individually cannot be sold, but the herd can be--right along with the company.

They are the elite. No one with a net worth under 10 figures need apply.

There are a few trick ponies, to be sure, and prized pets, but they are ultimately expendable if they get too uppity.

Why not manage the population by inciting conflict, legalizing and promoting abortion?

Enslave them by dumbing them down, distract them with baubles, shackle them with credit, and remember the all important Roman lesson: give them their bread and circuses, but make them work for them so they think they are free.

Sell you fifty--no a hundred--no two hundred flavors of dreck on your TV--and you work for it!! Whatta deal!

And then use it to tell you how 'free' you are.

I am just trying to get a grip on the arrogance of the minds that would perpetrate this crap on us.

From our viewpoint, of course, it is a feudalistic system--because they'd consider all of us serfs. Among themselves, though, it's all about the money.

We are in agreement. The only distinction is that I don't worry as much about what they think as they are their own worst enemies. And we are free, which unnerves them no end.

It not only unnerves them, it scares the Hell out of them. (8^D)

Understanding your enemy is never a wasted past time, it exposes their weaknesses and their strengths. You can exploit the one and avoid the other that way.

:-) Oh I read and understand my enemy. I just don't take on their problems as mine.
