This Is Not Normal,This Is Not OK! :Day 74

Trump Watch:

It would seem most Americans have woken up to the true dangers of Trump, the republicans and the corporate democrats.  That danger is rich people fucking over poor people.  Sadly the people who not yet understood what are going on, are our elected leaders.  They continue to happily take all the campaign donations legal bribes in the world and continue to act only in the interest of big money.

The whole Trump presidency is a con game to fleece money out of tax payers, the Russian troubles are basically plutocrats using their vast wealth and infinite greed to manipulate the world so they can make more money.  The destruction of the environment is greed over survival instinct.

It’s time we stop looking at greed as something bad, and start looking at it like an addiction.  We know now that the human mind can get out of control, craving something so strongly that you will destroy the lives of your entire family, just to get more of it.  That is how greed functions in these people.  They are addicted to more more more, and they don’t care if they take the entire world down with them.

The thing is the world has the potential for so much more.  We could be living in a sci-fi movie utopia right now.  Lets express our vision of a better world, and work hard to make sure it becomes reality.
