American Stupidity: The Real Service Economy

Part 1

You must realize that you are property!!!!

  

America is compromised of the most non intellectual individuals in the world. It is so prevalent that it has become, in essence, the true base economy. In order for any business to succeed it must do two things.

 
  1. Assume the American Public is sub "Forest Gump" level Stupid.
  2. Assume and secure government complacency in use of its property.
 

If you think of the American People as property rather than people, this concept and its mechanisms are more easily evident and more readily transmutable. If you therefore accept the American Public as slaves, then the first piece of the puzzle has been placed correctly. The American Government though evolving from the masses has transformed into an Anne Nicole version of itself, shrugging off all vestiges of its lesser self. We people are but slaves.

Question: If you have slaves, and you tell the slaves they have choice and that they are free…yet you provide them with all of their choices are they free. "Hey boy, you can either have him clean my car and you shine my shoes, or you can shine my shoes and he can clean my car. Place your votes in this here box and I'll go in this room here and tell you the results."  

There is no freedom without the freedom to choose, to make a choice where there is none presented, to refuse all choices presented, and to determine the lifespan of the choice. This applies to people, humans, and an inalienable right given to humans by God himself. Now let's apply this test to the slave then to the American. A slave being told two options: either shine shoes or wash car.

 

Test #1: Can the slave choose?

 

Answer: The slave can choose between these options. He/she can either say I want to wash the car or I want to shine shoes. But since the options themselves where pre-selected, in actuality they are not choosing they are selecting.

 

Test #2: Can the slave present an alternate choice?

Answer: No. If the master presents the choices of shining his shoes or washing his car, a slave, if he/she is a slave, cannot offer to cut the grass. The options are locked. Deviation from those particular choices would be met with harsh mental or physical sanction.

 

Test #3: Can the slave refuse all choices presented?

Answer: No. If the master presents a choice and the slave says no to that choice, that refusal nullifies the very nature of slavery. They made a choice that was not offered by the master and their choice refused in essence the position of the master to control choice in the life of the slave. The reason being is that if one presents a choice one is assuming they want to choice. Since wanting to make a choice is the first choice we make, to present options without first asking whether the questionee wants to participate is truly the essence of slavery. If a slave can say no or their agreement is required, therefore, he/she is not a slave. Which leads to the next test…?

 

Test 4# Can the slave determine the lifespan of a null/alternate choice?

Answer: No. The master either through mental or physical persuasion or force will forcible present a choice to the slave. Either endure punishment or comply with the original choice set. When this alternate choice is inserted, the lifespan of the original null/alternate choice has ended, i.e. instead of continuing to live with the choice I've made, the null/alternate choice, one is being presented with yet another choice, shine my shoes or get a beating!

 

How does this translate to you?

 

Well, do you have a choice? Are you free to choose? Are you free?

 

Well, let's test that theory extensively. Firstly, taxes.

 

Taxes are the most elegant form of slavery to date. Instead of dealing with the individual, the master/government, deals with its stock in a privatized fashion in that it licenses and leases other organizations to handle the sanction, reward and choice control of the individual slaves for a small servicing fee. Thereby, bypassing the need to harvest and market the labor of those slaves and instead skip directly to profiting financially. Let me ask you a question? Which is easier: to own one farm and work it with your own hands or to own several farms in partnership (meaning the operators of the farms have an ownership interest as well) and you just get a check every month? Obviously it's easier to own several. Trust, the government agrees with you too because they implement the same principle; if a government wanted to subjugate a people into slavery, how would they do it? First the government would play slide of hand and rename it something else, sort of like when you have to change your password but you can't use the same word you used before, same concept. It's not slavery, it's road construction. It's not slavery, it's national defense. It's not slavery, it's public education. We're not controlling your body by taking your marijuana away and putting you in jail, we are rehabilitating you. We are not taking your home that you paid for, we are seizing the property in order to pay your taxes you neglected to pay, and that is not slavery because well it's just not. Let me ask you a question? If you work ALL your life to pay off your mortgage to your house and buy the land, what right does the government have to take it if they didn't help you buy it? The answer, they own it you pay rent on it and once and again a government overseer tricks you into a 30 indentured servitude called a mortgage. Of course the government helps by telling you in so many words either upgrade your home or we'll condemn it. Paid in full and you're still paying rent.

Whew!  That's a pretty strong dose! But I can't disagree with your basic premise , Mr. Jones. Maybe that's what we need. I parse my words and tiptoe around core truths, using anology and satire for fear of frightening the  flock, but you barge into their midst with bared teeth. Maybe the time has come for the unvarnished truth (without name calling or personal attack) and I admire your courage in presenting it.
