[...] The best way I can put it based on my own personal experiences is that I have been cleverly brainwashed into believing that I am a waste of money and I deserve whatever scraps the higher-ups are willing to fart down onto me, and not a scrap more, as I bust my ass and endlessly, ultimately fruitlessly, clamor with the rest for their assurance that I am indeed worthy–not just of a paycheck–but of a good living. I get backed into a corner, it’s my own fault for not being someone else. My job goes overseas and I starve, I must not have been trying hard enough. My CEO runs off with my retirement and leaves me holding a portfolio full of worthless stock, well, sucks to be me. That’s Wall Street for ya. That’s what you get for trying to play that big, bad market casino like the big guns forced you to do. MUCH MORE [...]

Ah, yes, brilliant. Truthful. It didn’t get anyone anywhere to say what was said in this article during the Bush Administration (and it was said often and by many, and at least, sometimes, as brilliantly). Will things be different during the Obama Administration? I can only hope someone in the Obama Administration reads the article and lets Obama know where America really is, and how to reach it, because if that happens (or Obama reads it himself), I think (maybe I’m wrong, but I was right about Bush–absolute disaster, predicted well prior to November, 2000–so I think I’m right about Obama) that Obama will actively try to do something about ensuring the American worker (the guy who actually does the work) will benefit at least as much as the banks do from the worker’s actual work. Hope. And investigations. Let neither die for a while.

“I am a fish, in an ever-shrinking pond, and the guy draining it is telling me I’m an asshole for suffocating.”

^^^ this ^^^

Yet, the right-wing says “well, if you don’t like it.. come over here and help us drain the pond! once all those asshole fish slowly and painfully die, you’ll be sittin’ pretty!”.

I guess my problem is that I have a conscience and get physically ill if I hurt someone for no good reason, and since we don’t actually _have_ to drain the pond, don’t actually _have_ to make billions suffer and slowly die, I get ill at the prospect of flopping out of the pond and into the right-wing sewage tank I’d have to ever live in after.

We just have way too many guppies in this pond.. no one to help collectively create a wave and wash the sewage sharks away..

Love it. Fear and loathing have not been replaced by hope and change; that shit don’t happen overnight.

This is so fucking brilliant I can’t even be depressed by it.
