we as americans need to wake up
to understand
that we all have been made puppets by those who control our essential questions.....we no longer have the radical language to answer directly our systemic problems... this insightful vocabulary was stripped away from us by those who rule us in their mirror reversals of reality. these rulers use all avenues available....like the media driven education systems and the jewish- christian religion(which is based mostly on saul's letters instead of the perfection of yahshua's gospel).....chavez and most socialists draw on the ideals of the sermon on the mount/we are our brother's keeper and gandhi's ahimsa....some of us are starting to see that we are being controlled by the USA monopoly capitalists and their agents in washington d.c.....please remember "those who control our questions>also control our answers"....south america is waking up to this, not to be fooled again.
