Seeking Relief & Protection
What is election day?
To some it is a sport, two or more teams competing for this or that office. To some it’s a way to get power so they can gain an advantage for profit. But after we boil down the rhetoric and look at the day to day activities of those elected. It is us choosing who we want to lead in the facilitation of this or that activity in the administration of the organizations that manage our public services. That will hopefully result in a happy and safe society.
The job of the government is to protect the people of the society from all enemies foreign and domestic.
Since the con game of the late 1970’s early 1980’s to run our government like a business. What used to be optimism on election day, an expectation that our new leaders or administrators of public services will usher in better times. Much like a sincere preacher would like to usher in the kindness and love of God into our hearts. The monetization of our systems has replaced that optimism with something else, maybe even cynicism, so much so that many people have both quit voting as well as quit going to church to seek brotherhood, love and a sense of personal self worth as a result of the brotherhood and from helping others.
The very word government, instituted before we had mass education and children graduating high school with knowledge comparable to a college education in 1950. Government, creating an us vs. them mentality and an outdated illusion of separation, starts the trouble.
The power we have is a direct result of the mandate of consent.
We are no longer the ignorant masses. We are no longer pockets of people unconnected as a result of language or geographical barriers. We are now globally connected and have a better opportunity to bring situations to light and find remedies where needed.
As much as the few ego maniacs that end up with “governing power” who would like to think otherwise. The fact remains that respect for the USA comes from the mandate of consent by the people (in 2014 implied or otherwise). The checks and balances that were put in place long ago still protect us and we still do amazing things.
Albeit for expedience or as a result of incompetent or self serving people that don’t commit to things like obligation and duty to the people, much of our perceived power has had been replaced by unnecessary rhetoric. When the fact is we have millions of capable people nationally and globally who have a desire is to make a positive difference in our world. And they will, and they are.
The fact remains that every day when millions of people go to work they are refilling the coffers of the public domain and we continue to do good things.
We are going through change now and change is always hard. The secret pillaging of humanity is ending as we continue to compare notes.
The selling of hate against those that deliver to us truth is part of the challenges of change. Like when Wiki leaks dumped tons of documents onto the Internet, those that were a party to some of the activities that we were made aware of were shocked and surprised. And they attacked, no big surprise.
But when will the dictatorial nature of hate and using our own power against our own people stop.
And please don’t give me your bullshit about state secrets, I am a product (sic) of the military industrial complex. When I was 12 or so I loved every aspect of life, decided to choose God and decided not to be indoctrinated but to get the information by putting myself in the situations so I could get the real wisdom instead of someone elses opinion.
It’s their job to protect those state secrets, if they can’t then we as a nation must get someone who can.
But putting people into cage’s for many years because someone else wasn’t doing their job very well is not a solution.
Just like making torture legal, is that how ignorant we have become? Back to the caveman days?
Ok while I am on a roll how about this. Fact: almost all crime in a nation can be connected to the quality of life in that nation, the management of their economic system(s). For instance, a person cannot find a job, make a living or even get sustenance. They break the rules, we throw them in a cage with lots of other people that were in similar situations. While they are in there they compare notes with others that were in some way compromised by our failure as a nation to offer all citizens the ability to exercise their right to pursue happiness.
When they are released from their cage they are stripped of their right to vote, get healthcare or protect themselves from real dangerous psychopathic predators. Not to mention the psychological warfare they are forced to endure that seeks to debilitate them and make them feel like nun-humans, dimming their ability to achieve.
What do we lose? We lose the information from the very people that lived the results of the breakdowns in our systems, be it in a town or a nation. We lose the information necessary to design workable remedies to our problems and we use a compilation of information from people that have never been anywhere near the situation to try and remedy the situation.
Over and over, taking the same action over and over and expecting a different result. ha
Somewhat like the movie “A Dangerous Mind” which when concluded left me feeling there was something left out. What actually was the discovery he had made?
Well I would suggest that is much like the surprise of giving 50 million people food stamps. The amazing and surprising result is the economic benefit of having to produce food stuffs for those 50 million people. A paradigm change in money and economics.
Bla Bla Bla Sorry gotta go now.
Anyway whether you believe voting matters or not, it can. If we all took one half hour of the 168 hours in every week and learned about our public and elected offices. That would total over 25 hours a year.
The USA would change dramatically for the better.
After all, don’t you want an actual say in your future and the future of your children. Just take the time to get information closer to the truth instead of voting media rhetoric.
Media rhetoric did not make the USA the great nation it is, the people of the United States made it great!
Please Vote.
God Bless
Be Peace
