re: ["Police brace themselves for rage against economic crisis..."] "Up to 120,000 people marched through Dublin on Saturday in an emotional and angry national demonstration over the Irish Government's handling of the economic crisis. In the UK earlier this month, hundreds of oil refinery and power station workers carried out a series of wildcat strikes over the use of foreign workers. And across the Channel in France, a million people joined demonstrations to demand greater protection for jobs." France has already had it's million man march. There's been wildcat strikes and protests in the UK. Icelanders marched on the capital. They've had violent riots in Greece. And 120,000 angry Irishmen took to the streets last weekend. But yet in America, the bastion of capitalism and free markets... A country that was founded by the people rising up against a tyrannical banker state... We sleep walk through an Orwellian nightmare come true, as international bankers strip the Constitution & Bill of Rights bare, and loot and pillage our financial system, stealing our children's future. And why shouldn't America sleep walk instead of rising up, and marching on the capital? More prescriptions are dispensed for antidepressants than any other drug in America. 232.7 million prescriptions were written in America for anti-depressant drugs in 2007, more than any other type of drug, according to an IMS Health Report. U.S. sales of antidepressants totaled $11.9 billion in 2007. And the number one provider of psychotropic drugs? The nation state - medicaid. Welcome to Prozac Nation... On any given day, over 100 million Americans are either drugged, drunk, or doped. Another 100 million escape the harsh realities of daily life by playing video games, watching reality shows, and cable sports television. Chemistry has replaced Christianity as the nations largest religion, as oppressive, globalist, nation-states have replaced bio- warfare weapons, with pharmacalogical social- warfare weapons. " If Moses were an American at the dawn of the twenty-first century, the tablets he would bring down from the mountain would be Vicodin and Valium, not a set of commandments to guide our conduct." That quote is from Joseph Califano Jr. the former general counsel of the United States Army, as well as United States Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare. And you wonder why Sen. Chuck Schumer recently said... "And let me say this to all of the chattering class that so much focuses on those little, tiny, yes, porky amendments, the American people really don't care..." America doesn't care. It has it's Prozac, it's bread, and it's circuses. But you do. You, the "Chattering Class". You care. And by the way, that's what you are if you're reading this... the chattering class. The same Rahm Emmanuel talking point label ("cable chatter") that our President just used to dismiss the criticism of free market capitalists like Rick Santelli, and the tens of millions of Americans who agree with him. Shame on you if you're not drinking the Kool-Aid, and taking your state sponsored prozac... let alone clinging to your guns, your gold, or your bible... and "chattering" about the looting of America and the implementation of the Orwellian socialist state. Shame on you... "the chattering class" for daring to question the Hegelian dialectic, and daring to look outside their box. And shame on you if you continue to let our freedoms, our rights, our financial system, and this country, be looted and destroyed in broad daylight, right under your nose. S.O.T.B.
