A very few have always controlled the many
   
Today, the majority of human beings in the world are being herded, used, conned, robbed, and murdered by a very small minority. But there’s nothing new about this. It’s been true throughout human history.

Whether those in charge called themselves Pharaohs, Emperors, Shahs, Khans, Kings, Presidents, or CEOs, the game hasn’t changed. It’s all about the power of the few over the lives of everyone else.

Basically, most of humanity has not had the opportunity to learn anything from history and are therefore incapable of grasping what is happening to them today. In short, we seem to be a species that has been bred to follow “leaders.” And those who do understand the past and present, seem helpless to change anything.

Every time I get depressed about our current situation, I have to remind myself that “the good times” for the human species have been few and far between. And it makes me wonder how long it’s going to take for us to “grow up.” (That’s assuming we don’t destroy this planet first.)

So for those of you who think my view of history and the world is bullshit, let’s hear your view. And for those who agree with my perspective, do you have any ideas on how we can help the human species mature more quickly?

Another thing he doesn't mention is the rich have always paid for talent unless you were sold into slavery! Hmmmmmmm, wonder which one is cost effective?

Come on, idiot! Ya really think you get the same from a guy you force labor on, vs a guy ya pay to do the work? Oh, that's right, I forgot, I'm tryin' to make sense to a DUmbass!

How 'bout this: The communist labor unions thru out the world have driven the price of labor to 3rd world countries where the nasty corporation can afford to make a profit!

$30/hr to screw on lug nuts 8 hrs/day is not slowing competition? Wanna buy a bridge, CHEAP?

You need to buy a vowel, son!

And this is exactly why we must invest all power in the singular person of Obama.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Witness, for instance, $kammer's iron-fisted control of DU.

Obama's buddy, Chavez is asking for the power to make all laws for one year, just like a dictator.

So for those of you who think my view of history and the world is bullshit, let’s hear your view.

Here's a more important statement:  Who cares?  Why should I toss and turn in my bed concerned about a bunch of rich people?  How about you stop worrying about the rich and what they're doing and just live you own life?

You're miserable because you're too ignorant to know that your supposed belief that you see things and understand things in ways others either don't or refuse to is nothing but a lie.  You're "controlled" because you allow your own fantasies of what you're sure is the truth control you.  However, you're stupidity is entertaining.

That's funny, someone as immature as you are talking about how the human race needs to mature.  You need to you grow up, child.

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.

Well, according to lefties, there is no God!

They think we evolved from monkeys.

They also think humans are the plague of the planet.

They tell us monkeys have a better society as they live "green". Never mind the fact they go to war amongst themselves over territory quite often.

Well, I submit, if we evolved from monkeys, how in the hell would Darwin explain the fact that monkeys, according to the left, have it better and are more in tune to the planet than us?

Seems as if we have devolved, not evolved!

Is this what this lame brain considers maturing?

That's it! We have a winner! We need to go back to the trees!

I see the angry, crazy primitive is at it again. Medications must have worn off.
