ATSers, this is possibly the most important and ambitious thing I've ever written. I know we all want change, but nobody is inspiring the nation to
change, I hope my words can light a fuel, what follows are the results of my contemplations on the American nations society, I know this community is
not bound by national borders, and I hope our international brothers can adapt these writings to improve the society of their own countries. It is my
hope that this writing gets shared with the world, I wrote something that I can say with complete honesty that I am proud of, and I know some sections
will appear as ramblings, but it is my truest desire to get the wheels of change moving, I am tired of leaving it in the hands of the corrupted
officials that has tarnished our name and destroyed our nation, I'm hoping my part in our species evolution will be realized once I hit the post
button, if you agree with me and throw a star on my post, I beg you to share this, get the word out. If you don't, then I hope we at least kickstart
the conversations that leads to revolution. I know what follows is long, but if it can inspire change, then it is worth the read:

A great patriot once said, and I'm paraphrasing for the detailed orientated, that the American people must always be ready to take arms against their
government once they assert their will over the people. I declare that time is now. I declare it is time that we rise against the aggressive machine
that asserts its will not only over this once great nation, but over the entire globe, all in the false name of democracy. I assure you that the wars
and conflicts that we have been involved in, both directly and indirectly, are not in the name of democracy, but instead are waged for the benefits of
the shadow elite that pulls the strings of whatever puppet they dangle in front of us. We owe it to the men and women who have given all for an idea
that has been tainted by these shadowy figures as they carry out their own agendas before our very eyes.
A never ending state of war has been upon this nation since before many of you have been born. We've had the War on Terror, the Cold War, the War
on Drugs, conflicts in S. America, Bosnia, Korea, Vietnam, the Middle East, the list goes on and on, and this is just what is made public. These wars
and conflicts are supposedly in the name of democracy, we're always the heroes going to liberate the oppressed from the bad savage men who rule with
iron fists. After we invade and destroy a nation, we set up a regime government, we arm them and train them. The truth is never as black and white
as we are led to believe. Time and time again, the powers we put in control turn on us, and new conflicts arise. This creates a never ending cycle
of wars, wars that the few benefit from, and the American people, as well as the entire nation of whatever country we feel needs usurping suffer, we
suffer by sending our sons and daughters to far away places to face these “tyrants” and “barbarians” in a conflict very few of them can
accurately describe the reason for being there in the first place. The “barbarians” we face are mostly sheephearders, farmers and simple people
who pose no threat to our way of life, but have been violently upheaved from their day to day to lives and watched as their loved ones and neighbors
are destroyed by an aggressive invader. No wonder we are loathed by the middle east nations! But these nations have resources we want, or they
question the sanctity of the U.N and its unending grasp of power, so the U.N sends their muscle, that's right people, we are the bullies of the
playground, and the American people are fed lies and b.s and we are cornered into a fattening consumer society where we are enslaved by invisible
bars.
You believe because you can work you whole life and make a name for yourself and your family that you are free. It is an illusion, regardless of how
well you have made your life, you got there by stepping on the backs of the less fortunate, and empowering the very entities that enslave you. The
banks you pay, the debt you acquire, the food, the information, the resources of this nation are controlled by the elite, you need these to survive,
they know this, and they know you will dedicate your entire life fending for yourself to acquire these necessities while they commit whatever
atrocities they see fit as you allow them to sustain this illusion...and we are so blind and use to it that we can't even recognize it. These
resources belong to all of us, we control them, we produce the products we use, we mine the resources from this earth. The knowledge acquired over
the span of our entire civilization belongs to all of us, not to a few who are allowed to benefit from this knowledge and keep it for themselves so we
depend on them.
The American Dream is over. The illusion is slipping and soon the veil will be lifted. But first you need to be awaken. It is taught to us
that everybody in America has the same chances of success as everybody else. That is a lie. There is a reason why the same dynasties are seen up
top, they keep information to themselves, they enroll in schools that the average American has no access to, and they are indoctrinated as the heirs
of this nation, that is not how our founding fathers envisioned our country to be. The majority of the American people are forced to work jobs they
despise their entire lives to make a living, this is how we are enslaved. We must work to live, that is acceptable apparently, we don't like it, but
we need to eat. That's just how they WANT it to be. If you are so focused on fending for you and your own, then everything else will ALWAYS come in
second, this allow them to feed us the lies of freedom and democracy, we believe we have a say in who wins elections, but come on, out of an entire
nation of great thinkers, we are allowed to choose our next leader out of a total of two choices. The election process is a show, we are shown this
grand process of how we wittle it down to these two, however, the cost of campaigning and the importance of exposure of the mass media will always
limit our choice to the two puppets placed in front of us. That is why true fighters of democracy will always be wittled out early, men who propose
change for this nation, men like Ron Paul, who tried to play by their rules but got burned in the end.
