The Demise of the United States of America

Through the centuries civilizations and empires have risen and fallen. I will be discussing the death of the United States. History does repeat itself. Historians often look to the Roman Empire and I will be no different.

The Roman Empire fell for a variety reasons, such as lead poisoning through their use of lead pots and pans, the possible rise of Christianity, the hiring of mercenaries to fight their endless wars, and the slaves to do the domestic work.

Let us look closely at the demise of the United States of America. Our death is similar and yet very complex because our death occurs in the twenty-first century. The twenty-first century was supposedly more advanced and yet it was probably less advanced in terms of humanitarian reasons.

We can look at our deregulations of the environment that is killing off life from animal to human life. It is the United States fall from Christianity that has also aided in our demise. We turned our backs on Jesus Christ and accepted false prophets. These false prophets in our religions are clinging to the eight pillars for its strength. These eight pillars are hatred, murders, torture, war crimes, corruption, decadence, greed, and lies. These eight pillars gradually destroyed the mind, body, and souls of our citizens and our nation as a whole. We also hired mercenaries to fight our endless wars because the goose-stepping elitists have systematically killed off our children. We have also destroyed our middle class and hired people at slave wages. American corporations have also been instrumentally involved with our goose-stepping government by destroying the middle class with outsourcing our jobs and the hiring foreigners for less money. American lives have diminished steadily for decades.

Average Americans have developed a sense of hopelessness from our children to our adults. Our citizens and politicians have preferred screwing around and not parenting. Our teenagers are a great resource for us because they are into fairness and idealism. Fairness is not just for themselves but also for their friends and other people. They are also idealistic because they believe in a better world. Our country cannot be a role model for other countries because we have demoralized our people to the point that hopelessness and fear are rampant in our nation and among our people. We are already into the abyss of hell.

Goose-stepping Americans have a unique way of behavior toward people whom we consider different. We are great at stigmatizing people by bias, distrust, stereotyping, fear, embarrassment, anger, and/or avoidance.

Our evil and immoral ways have brought to us what we deserve our demise as a nation. People usually get what they deserve and goose-stepping Americans deserve death to their country.

"I'm probably talking to the wall, but there is hope. Today I got in touch with a Socialist organization out of North Carolina to see about setting up shop in Upstate South Carolina. Maybe next Election Day there will be Socialists on the ballot. 'I sure don't believe we are ever going to see a resurgence of the "American Dream" with the two parties in power now.' If I can't get it off the ground, maybe I'll join the Greens. Maybe we should all start thinking of alternatives. The status quo is killing us and it's really our own damn fault." - Timothy Gatto and seconded by Gerald

Gerald plans to be more of a socialist with some thoughts of green on his mind. To be an independent a person will be hit by a cars going both ways.

We are now seeing the true face of America in this 2010 midterm election.

There's a nagging litte voice that tells me it'll be time to stick a fork in the little guy and turn him over...at least for a while; a long, long while. The problem is further compounded by the further we dig the whole, the tougher it will be to fill it in and climb out.

Unions are an organized group of working class voters who have a line of communication outside the corporate media which can be a threat. Since the wages have eroded over time the unions have a shrinking pot of dollars to spend in support of candidates that hopefully would support labor friendly legislation. The total union dollars spent on candidates has not always been enough to assure pro labor support from those politicians in receipt of union support. I suspect the total dollars available for unions to spend pales in comparison to the pro corporate lobbying machines. As Thom mentioned it is no longer possible to follow the money spent by these "political" organizations.

As a baby boomer I am continually amazed at the successful historical vilification of unions oft repeated by those of my parents generation even by those whose financial health were due to in part or largely to the strength of the unions after World War II. I suspect that the portrayal of the oft violent encounters that unions had in the early days of organizing by the news services of the day contributed to this lasting antipathy towards the union movement. I am also sure that the repeated union corruption scandals (money/power/corruption cycles) helped cement these lasting impressions and bias.

My union in California had a surprinsing percentage of members who voted for our lame duck republican governor to reap his ongoing attack on state workers. The media myth ignores the fact that unions are made up of individuals of all poliitical persuasions who work for a living and do not have a unified political front.

I hope that this election will not lead to the further villification and limitations on the shrinking organized labor.

Making a sex tape then starting a Twitter account seems to be the most viable path.

President Obama:

Just how is Pres. Obama suppose to get out the message with all his accomplishments? TV only broadcast Rightwing Hate messages or Propaganda, never giving a positive slant to anything Pres. Obama has done. Other media outlets that aren't totally Rightwing, tend to focus on how much more Pres. Obama should have done. I am also guilty of this since Single Payer Medical was what we wanted. How does the message get out???

Sorry, I mean David Bossie.

Ohio lets voters choose paper or plastic at the polls and of course I took the paper option. Sadly, I was only the third person to do so.

I was saving this comment for November 3, 2010 but why wait because the slaughter of the Democrats will be of epic proportions in this midterm election.

When Jesus was alive, He said, I AM THE WAY! Please remember that as long as Gerald is alive his comments are formulas and the way for JUSTICE AND PEACE IN THE WORLD! I may not always be right but I AM NEVER WRONG!

Change

I gave a sister-in-law a list of thirty-seven areas and of the thirty-seven areas I would say that I am liberal in seven areas. My sister-in-law says that I am still liberal. How does a person reason with another person who reveals hatred, greed, corruption, jealousy, selfishness, and lies?

Commentators, I love your posts. I love your optimism, desire, passion, and dedication. Let me share with you an experience. I may have shared this experience before but I will share the experience again. In college Professor Elsasser shared with the class his experience on his orals for his doctorate degree in history. There were five people on his committee. He defended his dissertation very well. He was down to the finally committee member. The last member said that he did a good job in defending his dissertation but he was uncertain whether or not Mr. Elsasser knew history. Pursuing the dissertation meant writing reports, tests, reading article and a dissertation, etc. Now he had to answer one more question in defending his dissertation. “Mr. Elsasser in ONE WORD what is history?” All his work came down to one word. He was in a state of panic; he was numb; and he saw before him his fleeting dream to teach in college. The committee member said that the one word is CHANGE. Mr. Elsasser, as a history teacher, remembered the word CHANGE. He was granted his doctorate degree and he was now a history professor.

Commentators, I know your love for America. But, you must also remember the word CHANGE in history. America has changed and not for the better. We will never again be a democracy. We will never again be a land of dreams and hopes. We will forever be a land of nightmares and ruled by fear. America has changed for ninety percent of Americans.

Please do not be discouraged! Although we are now a nation where hatred and killing rule, we must draw ourselves closer to the true God. Find ways to survive in a fascist state where Hitler’s clone is the dictator! Let the true God guide us and not the bushgod or the obamagod! Continue to love and show mercy to all people because the prize will be God’s hug for us and He will say “Welcome home my faithful and good friend! Come, I have prepared a place for you.” All we now have left is God’s love and mercy for us. Give yourself to the true God! The true God is the answer for our eternal happiness. For ninety percent of Americans their earthly happiness is gone forever.

On November 2, 2010 we are witnessing the demise of dreams and hope for ninety percent of Americans. Ninety percent of Americans will experience ongoing depression through the Twenty-first century and well into the Twenty-second century.

Only God is constant. He will never change. His love and mercy are always with us. Along with God who never changes there is another truism. America’s culture of violence will never change. Please store in your computer Stephen Lendman’s article, “A Culture of Violence!” I need to share with you two more truisms. We have only one party in the United States of Mortal Sin and the name of the party is called the Money Party. The other truism is to realize we are so deep into a pool of shit in this country because we have no exit strategy from our pool of shit. We are trying to remove ourselves from this pool of shit but even with our effort we are gagging ourselves to death.

Fairness Doctrine

Revival of the fairness doctrine forcing any medium promulgating one of opposing views to allow a contrary view gratus would alleviate the danger to one sided publicity. A constitutional amendment is the answer, but this will take a long time and if money has its way be impossible. Since the Democrats are likely losers when corporations rule with their money, they could ( but will they?) pass a fairness doctrine during the lame duck session if they lose in the election.

Correction: "Remember needing 50 votes for a Public Option, then it all of a sudden changed to 60 when the level of 50 was passed?"
