English schoolchildren know more about the politics of power than American academics.
A servant drops a plate. Her mistress has her beaten.
A servant is sixteen and pretty. Her master assaults her.
The politics of power tells us that this is the fate of the servant. There is nothing she can do, save dream of being rescued by a prince, or a knight in shining armor. There is nothing her father can do, without risking the livelihood of the entire family. If she has brothers, and they cannot be restrained, they could lose their lives for daring to defend her.
To better educated citizens, this is common sense.
But Americans moan and groan, cry and complain, about unfair speeding tickets, unjust imprisonment, corruption...as if it is an anomaly for the weakest and poorest to be abused.
Wake up, America.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to make people believe he didn't exist?
The greatest trick America's rulers ever pulled was to make Americans believe they were free.
It's easier than you think to free yourself.
Free yourself from credit. Just don't care.
Free your children from the school system.
Free yourself from bad jobs and bad sex.
Free yourself from television. Just record your favorite QUALITY shows or watch online.
Free yourself from the radio. Just make your own mix CDs or plug in your MP3 player.
Rule yourself.
It's in the Bible, dood.
