“All Politics is Local”

The title is a phrase attributed to US politician, Tip O’Neill - and he couldn’t have got it more right. Politics is actually in your head (ideology) and what could be more local than that though O’Neill was referring to the immediate electorate.

Now view the systems that prevail today, centralised capital governments that represent minority Plutocratic elites or corrupt interests -- democratic majorities no longer get a ‘look-in!’

What do we learn from the above two realities? Well, first, we are confronted with the fact that we do not live in a representative democracy. Second, that centralised national governments are ineffective and are clearly incapable of addressing the immediate needs of the democratic MAJORITY.

Current non-representative systems actually favour corruption, inefficiency, waste and loss on numerous levels. Federal or centralist governments are clearly disconnected from the wishes of the electoral majority.

The most critical issues affecting the lives of millions are ignored in favour of profits for a tiny elite -- goodbye climate, environment and a sustainable future for our kids.

The remedy and solution is simple, cease all support (including apathetic non-involvement) for non-representative, centralised, ineffective systems and take back government; first locally and then nationally by installing people’s representatives into office not the hand picked (owned) candidates of elite interests.

Consider the burning issue that seems to preoccupy the homosexual president of the United States, Barack Obama, when the nation and the world are going to hell in a hand basket -- gay marriage and gay equality! I have no objection to once radical gays now desiring to enter the most conservative institution that exists, monogamous marriage, however, in view of ongoing horrendous crimes against humanity and environmental degradation on an unprecedented scale, pre-occupations with gay issues would seem inappropriate to say the least.

Obama’s absurd fixation on minority issues at the expense of critical MAJORITY issues, which demand IMMEDIATE attention, offers incontrovertible proof of the failure of today’s centralist, unrepresentative systems of government.

Remedy the situation by simply withdrawing your support for the status quo and actively pursuing sustainable options/solutions -- the current system is CLEARLY an abysmal failure and cannot be allowed to continue. And if the message isn't clear, then here it is in plain unambiguous English, political non-involvement is no longer an option today. Why?

Consider how national centralist governments have failed the people, how much worse would a global government be? Effectively the masses would be completely de-humanised and reduced to numbers/barcodes. A completely captured, dehumanised EXPENDABLE population would be exploited like herd animals and battery hens -- if you cannot see where it is all going then you deserve your fate.

A war is raging NOW, engage it and wage it peacefully or by whatever means you see fit but hit MINORITY satanic evil forces HARD and never relent until moral right prevails over the dark evil forces that threaten all our sacred, hard-won, CIVILISED values.

The apparatuses nefarious forces use today constitute a modern version of the biblical opponent, 'Goliath;' a giant that is equipped with the latest technology and weapons. As the biblical tale CLEARLY instructs, all lumbering giants (empires) are defeated by guerrilla warfare i.e. choosing the time and place of hit-run attacks is a HUGE advantage; the agility, speed, superior skills and tactics of guerrilla fighters ALWAYS prevails over cumbersome, lumbering giants -- NOTHING HAS CHANGED TODAY.

Hit 'em HARD and hit 'em often/continually, NEVER RELENT UNTIL (INEVITABLE) VICTORY IS OURS!
