<So come and give me a deeper insight of your theories.> Doroteo, I try to do better and offer a concept with inherent benefits.The gold...I leave that to the dentists.) <Please do not misinterpret me as I am really meaning politicians, nothing else. Yes I know that the subject of pigs has been brought up between you and I. However, I assure you in this instance, it is a simple accident as pigs is the first thought I create when I think about politicians. True not very becoming of me, but at least I am honest, and that's more one can say than that of politicians.> Calling a human a pig is one of the most unproductive mouth exercises there is. You say that the first thought you create in your mind when thinking about politicians is that of a pig. OK your mind is still your exclusive property. But I share with you and I speculate that today millions upon millions of inhabitants in various countries share with us a deep and profound dislike, a year by year increasing resentment against politicians. Not because they are useless. Not at all. They are just of no use to us, the people who gave them the power to represent us. And they don't. Right now look what's happening in Bruessels and in Washington for example. But calling politicians with or without appropriate attributes, mothers, lowlifes, pigs, wind hounds, scum bags, scoundrels is a waste of time, besides they are not all so bad. I am sure if they deliver to us what they promise before they are elected they are OK. Worse, name calling is unproductive, if we and the millions and millions of inhabitants in various countries want to bring to halt the gravy trains they schedule upon political power commands, green lights they set based on the Don Creole principle,lobby efforts and a myriad of corrupt practices they established over decades in old democratic governments or are presently installing in new ones. Señor Arango, just that we do not misunderstand each other. I did not say " derail the gravy trains" and in no way, shape or form my concept involves deadly violence, prosecutions, destruction of other peoples property, taking over banks and alike or even do away or rewrite constitutions. Yes indeed I talk about a social revolution which is long overdue anyway. But it is a particular form of social revolution. The particularity is found in the fact that the revolution part is already completed. It's behind us one could say. Democratic governments are already installed in numerous countries based on previous, sometimes bloody revolutions. We don't want to betray those efforts which have brought us decades of prosperity and long periods of peace. What I am proposing is that the people, -not a party, no banners, no marches- band together and deal themselves into the games politicians played so far on our backsides without sharing with us their winning hands. How many American Citizens know what those "business men" and Mr.Brown the politician, were up to in Croatia, Señor Arango? If the plane would not have crashed we would know less as we know now and that is nothing. People don't want to know when the plane is in the air. People want to know why the trip on their expense is necessary. Ausgespielt-Schluss damit! People by dealing themselves into the power games I mean to say that the elected are being 24 hours supervised by the people in their games. No more marked cards without the peoples knowledge or consent. We all want to participate from now on in. <The day is nearing closer, when governments will see their subjects, (i.e. the people), more as clients to be catered to, and not as mere suckers, (i.e. taxpayers), from whom to steal. A simple example: if it was not for the Internet, what would be the possibilities that you and I would be exchanging our respective thoughts ? Answer = None. Not that this particular exchange will solve anything.... after all, we, in reality, are simply mere vassals that are participating in well... Thread Morons... that is kind of telling don't you think ? But in time, these exchanges will become more prevalent and significant to the point where real valuable information will be shared throughout the globe at lightening speed and will make "leaders" less prone to be tyrannical, since their ills and snake oil will be easily exposed. Just down my alley, Señor Arango! We are indeed communicating on the same frequency. Sometimes distorted possibly but nevertheless the carrier signal is strong. Yes we are Morons for having put up with the corrupt and incompetent for such a long time, so the name of this thread is most appropriate. But then we never had a bloodless weapon in our command up to now either. But now we have. We must act swiftly and with vigor as in Europe certain governments are working already on all kinds of schemes to intrude and control the internet. They feel the chill running down their bended spines already. I propose to install a peoples network where every elected office holder in national or local government and any appointed member of any type of commission or agency, inclusive diplomats is recorded and monitored. Every inhabitant of any country shall have free access around the clock to the network which should have no other function as to maintain the database and obviously display it's bites on election day or if a situations warrants at once. No more of nothing without the people's knowledge. We can turn the tables now in more as one way. All in perfect legal format.Without a single drop of blood. That would bring not only the gravy train to a halt but furthermore real and effective power to the people. The very essence of any constitution in any democratic society. Señor Arango, could you subscribe to such a concept? The hour is now and the breeze is in our favor as well. Greetings, Eddy Blinker What money? Look at all the present networks. Not a single one would create more genuine hits as this concept would deliver.So finance should be a piece of cake.
