I am not obsessed with money. It would be no more reasonable to suppose that those who campaign against rape are the sexual deviants. It is clear from everything I write (even the quote you pulled where I state that the ruling class takes all the money, takes everything including our freedom from us. No man is truly master of his destiny so long as there is a ruling class. You do a terrible job of turning my quote against me, mostly because you're incapable of it) that I am not obsessed. Your posts lack any substance so instead you divert attention away from yourself and unto me. I want to empower people. Is it not the case that a small group of people have all the power and all the money and that necessarily that means they have taken it from the people?

This is the final part of the Stockman review.

Warning: this black swan won't be pretty, will shock, soon

His bottom line: "The day of national reckoning has arrived. We will not have a conventional business recovery now, but rather a long hangover of debt liquidation and downsizing ... it's a pity that the modern Republican party offers the American people an irrelevant platform of recycled Keynesianism when the old approach -- balanced budgets, sound money and financial discipline -- is needed more than ever."
Wrong: There are far bigger things to "pity."
First, that most Americans, 300 million, are helpless, will do nothing, sit in the bleachers passively watching this deadly partisan game like it's just another TV reality show.
Second, that, unfortunately, politicians are so deep-in-the-pockets of the Wall Street conspiracy that controls Washington they are helpless and blind.
And third, there's a depressing sense that Stockman will be dismissed as a traitor, his message lost in the 24/7 news cycle ... until the final apocalyptic event, an unpredictable black swan triggers another, bigger global meltdown, followed by a long Great Depression II and a historic class war.
So be prepared, it will hit soon, when you least expect.

Has the class war already started in some state capitols?

I wouldn't call the politicians helpless. The people are helpless thanks to the wholesale plundering they have suffered. But the politicians are willing participants in the destruction of freedom, in selling the people to private industry.

I think your views of America and evil corporations are tainted by American/Puerto Rican relations, which, given our history, I can certainly understand.

No Tracy, my views are not "tainted" by said relations. I am not fooled by your faux-understanding and faux-concern. I can hear the condescension in what you wrote. I am not speaking as a victim traumatized. I am speaking as a man who wants to empower his people and all the people of the world. It is a fact that the American Empire in both its governmental and private industrial capacity has exploited the peoples of the world and their lands.

Further, why did you bowdlerize my quote?

It is telling that you did not answer my question: Is it not the case that a small group of people have all the power and all the money and that this necessarily means they have taken it from the people?

Well let's see, the government can take from the people through taxes, which is one reason I support a smaller government, but since no rich & powerful person has his hand in my wallet (the local courts have their hand in my wallet getting $200 just because I like to speed a little, which reminds me I have to go pay them tomorrow), you'll have to give me an example where one of these rich and powerful people has become rich by taking money from the people.

They should; but they can't.
Because then they would be agreeing with Sarah;"DRILL BABY, DRILL:
