The new creed of greed

With forced submittal, to the banks,
And the corporations of planet Earth
For the stockholders, and their dividends,
One people, under fear, human capital,
To be used and abused at will.

Is this what our pledge of alegiance now truly represents? This satirical parody needs to be shouted on wall street! This is NOT how the AmerIca I love was supposed to turn out when the colonists overthrew the imperial rule. Somehow we let it slip right back into their slimy fingers and gave it a shiny coat of paint to hide the ugly truth. For the sake of our children's children, this madness cannot continue. This SYSTEM of life cannot continue in its current state, we must instead re learn the ART of living if we expect our reality to ever match our ideals. History is in the making here people, you can either participate, or you can be the victim. But I tell you this, the victims will NOT dictate the outcome. I ask you this, In ten years from now will you be proud of the example you projected out to the world? Or will you be ashamed that you were steamrolled?

If you can't beat them, join them...welcome to LIFE...as we know it to have evolved into...a business model.

I love my fellow humans and life too much to believe i can do nothing except accept this "business model" I have too big a heart to do that.

This system has become so ingrained into American culture that most people would find it extremely difficult to ever be able to personally break out of it. Look at how many corporations we depend on to give us what most people consider to be basic necessities. We would all need to give that stuff up in order to fix the problem. It would affect every single aspect of your life to some degree.
