We Have The Power and We Do Not Use It.


I have been wondering why the US Congress (the people we elected to represent us) are COLA recipients while we the people who exist on Social security and Medicaid, SSI or some other Government retirement receive little to no increases? The reality is that no matter what the electeds tell us, they take care of themselves and lie to us. Our Taxes pay their salaries (which are too high) and thereby pay for their healthcare and retirement. I have heard folks say there should be term limits, in theory that is fine however we cannot expect these folks to limit themselves to a 2 or 4 years term and stop. We the people are the term limits and we do that by voting for or against. This election season is the opportunity to make adjustments. Another 4 years of TOTUS and his miscreants will prove to be more deadly than it is right now. Remember he is being abetted by the same neer do well Congress we have kept in office for too long. This requires informed voting based on several issues not just your favorite.

A Message from Pete Carroll


From the Seahawks:

“(White people) need to be coached up and they need to be educated about what the heck is going on in the world,” Carroll said. “Black people can’t scream anymore, they can’t march any more, they can’t bear their souls anymore to what they’ve lived with for hundreds of years because white guys came over from Europe and started a new country with a great idea and great ideals and wrote down great writings and laws and all of that about democracy and freedom and equality for all. And then that’s not what happened, because we went down this road here and followed economics—rich white guys making money—and they put together a system of slavery, and we’ve never left it, really. It has never gone away.

“And Black people know the truth, they know exactly what’s going on. It’s white people who don’t know. It’s not that they’re not telling us; they’ve been telling us the stories. We know what’s right and what’s wrong, we just have not been open to listen to it. We’ve been unwilling to accept the real history. We’ve been taught a false history of what happened in this country, we’ve been basing things on false premises, and it has not been about equality for all, it has not been about freedom for all, it has not been opportunity for all, and it needs to be. This is a humanity issue we’re dealing with. This is a white people’s issue to get over and learn what’s going on and to figure it out and start loving everybody that is part of our country, and that want to our country, wherever they want to come from.”
