Thread regarding Sears layoffs

may I post George carlin. it sums how I feel..

But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education S---S, and it’s the same reason it will never, ever, EVER be fixed.

It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got.

Because the owners, the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now, the BIG owners! The Wealthy… the REAL owners! The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.

Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls.

They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying, to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want:

They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. Thats against their interests.

Thats right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting f---ed by a system that threw them overboard 30 f---ing years ago. They don’t want that!

You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly sh--ty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this f---ing place! It's a big club, and you ain’t in it! You, and I, are not in the big club.

By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care! Good honest hard-working people; white collar, blue collar it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means, continue to elect these rich c--- s---ers who don’t give a f--- about you….they don’t give a f--- about you… they don’t give a F--- about you.

They don’t care about you at all… at all… AT ALL. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Thats what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue d--k thats being jammed up their a--holes everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth.

It's called the American Dream,because you have to be asleep to believe it.

It is astonishing how quickly they consolidated power. They corrupted then busted unions, hired politcos to deregulate nearly everything, voted themselves indefensible tax breaks, and have eroded our civil liberties. They enforce this new paradigm with eager, well trained enforcers and surveillance; they make us beg as they dangle a morsel as you might with a playful pet.

And they did this in less than 40 years.

This is because they sold us a future of prosperity and we gave them our unabashed support. The thing is, they omitted that prosperity was for ownership only. The sad truth is that many of us today still cling to their hemlines in hopes they will reward our loyalty with a taste only to be kicked away as mangy hounds.

We will never get back our middle class because we have surrendered our political will to the Eddie Lamperts, Donald Trumps, and Hillary Clintons of the world.
