DISSENT: We must take our nation back!   Updated at 6:34 PM
   
The overwhelming majority of citizens of the United States have been betrayed by their government. The electorate sends representatives to office in local, state and federal office. The majority of those elected officials end up prostituting themselves to special interests. Those special interests reflect the best interests of a tiny fraction of Americans—the political and economic elite. The elites live parasitically on the working class. The working class is their peasant class.

Our ruling class is dedicated to globalization and empire building. They have no concerns about the impact on the working class. They compromise the American values of democracy, human rights and civil liberty both at home and abroad. Our government tolerates oppression and crimes against humanity among our allies, while instituting restrictions on civil liberties at home. The current administration demonstrates its sameness by continuing with secrecy and refusing to investigate and prosecute crimes against humanity committed by the previous administration. Americans can now be incarcerated for years without legal representation or charges being filed. Our privacy is at the convenience of Big Brother.

The role of the military has been changed from defense to protecting “national interests.” Adopting national interest as the standard for use of the military has the advantage that we need not actually be threatened before resorting to force. Of course, the military has long been used to protect the financial interests of American corporations abroad, which is why we support military coups in places like Indonesia, Chile, Haiti and Honduras. It’s the real reason we bother with the Middle East and Central Asia. Cuba’s only crime is rejecting capitalism. Hugo Chavez is demonized because he puts the welfare of the people before foreign corporate interests. Manuel Zelaya is a refugee in his own country for confronting Honduran businesses allied with American business and a military trained and indoctrinated by the United States.

There are those who are quick to remind anyone demanding democracy that this nation is, in fact, a republic. But a republic implies that representatives must be democratically elected by those they represent, and, of course, they are expected to represent those who elected them. With very few exceptions among elected officials, this is no longer the case in the United States. We are not the democratic republic our leaders pretend we are. Our “leaders” betray and devalue the principle of democracy.

It’s time to make change happen. Don’t expect it to come from the top. The top is nothing but a self-interested oligarchy. The “System” is designed to perpetuate itself, so don’t expect change from within. The People must go outside the system. But how do “We the People” we do this without resorting to violence? How do we let the ruling class know the working class is in revolt?

We use economic boycotts. We engage in hunger strikes. We call and observe general strikes. We take the time to march and demonstrate. We call on progressives with the nation’s attention to use their platforms to organize the American people. We need a progressive in a leadership position to stick his or her neck out and call for open dissent. We must have nonviolent revolution. WE MUST TARGET WHAT MATTERS--THE BOTTOM LINE!

America was born in dissent. There is nothing more American than dissent.

I'm confused I thought I want my country back was code for I hate black people. And dissent was so 2008. :confused:

20. You don't think the politicians owe more allegiance to the corporations then they do to us?

I think the health care issue is a good case in point. Any thinking person who looks at our health care problems can see that the solution is not to do the bidding of the insurance companies, yet that is just what is happening. I don't see any hope that we will get the best reform that can be had. It is more important to the politicians to preserve the health insurance industry than it is to provide affordable health care to everyone. That is not moving in the right direction.

Funny then that so many keep getting reelected by that public.

I need to start a thread sometime where we document all the real hardcore "Dear Leader can do no wrong" cheerleader cult members on the island.  But I'd like to gather the names of as many of them as I can on my own before I do.

Once the government started handing out paychecks for having babies, they must have mistakenly come to that conclusion.

So the DUmmies want to take our country back, eh....

Back to what, the 1600's? 
Back to burning global warming deniers at the stake, for "practicing witchcraft"....

Back to the 1940's?
Back to putting all those that don't agree with them in prison or camps with special "showers"....

Just what will be left to "take back" after Zero is done with it is anyone's guess....

Besides, I thought you DUmbasses already "took back" Congress and the White House, so what is wrong.  Hopeychangey not working out the way you thought it would?   :rotf:

Well, their heroes WERE in charge for a while there, and seems to me that soup kitchens were pretty common during that time (aka, the "Great Depression".)

...

What about all those special interest groups that really like curtailing civil liberties or forcing their ideals on others  - yaknow - like the GFW's , the gays, the "open borders" crowd , tree huggers , food nazis , "won't SOMEBODY please think of the CHILDREN" crew and so on ad infinitum.

When it comes to "special interest groups" you leftists have the game well covered.
