Who Does ‘Your’ Government Serve?

Fair question with an obvious answer but let’s elaborate a little so there’s absolutely no doubt.

Do you feel that your government serves you and the people or does it serve the minority big end of town, the Corporatists and Bankers? Now think of the US Attorney General refusing to prosecute Wall St criminal FRAUD but kicking you out of house and home or fining you for misdemeanours.

The media barons in Oz recently flexed their muscles on the hapless, despised PM, Juliar Gillard, for threatening to alter media laws; an unjustified focus in the press about her ‘threatened’ leadership position immediately followed; of course it was a beat-up but it had the desired effect, a leadership spill occurred.

The outcome of the spill was irrelevant to the media barons and other plutocrats that would have arranged to install one of their puppets into office during the next Federal election in any event -- however, it was a show of force, a reminder and demonstration of who’s really boss ‘round ‘ere, mate! We should all recall the now infamous comment made by former PM, Kevin ‘photo-op, do nothing’ Rudd, “when we win office we won’t have to do anything!” [Except read from a script.]

Of course the above applies to the US and other western ‘democracies’ that allow inordinate amounts of wealth and power to accrue unregulated in the hands of a few -- I mean, what would you expect? It is natural human instinct to protect one's own interests; a government’s job is to ENSURE that an equitable distribution of available wealth occurs and that society functions in a fair, equitable and just manner -- something which is clearly NOT occurring today.

So now that it is clear that the people are being duped and lied to continually, should we, the majority, allow ourselves to be mesmerised again by the SAME media lies, slogans and bullshit or should we VOTE for representative INDEPENDENTS and boycott all bought and owned major party candidates?

Now of course I realise that the plutocrats (Google etc ) will read this and make every attempt to suppress this information; minority elites can’t have themselves and the obvious SORDID truth/reality exposed, the masses must remain in a state of quasi-catatonia or mesmerised fascination at all times; elite grip on power is extremely tenuous and requires constant reinforcement. But we are aware of their methods so we disseminate all information in the best interests of the people, via manual means, emails, links, rolls, lists and social network exposure. In fact, grass-roots dissemination is far more effective than mass media saturation, be aware of that little fact.

So I leave you to determine your own fate and exercise your sovereign prerogatives, but remember never vote or install any high profile (puppet) candidate into office AGAIN, under ANY circumstances!
