Just look at the definition of fascism and compare it to the USA's current system. We have to change this. We have to push for the department of peace. I don't know if we are going to be able to save this country if we don't.

We need to stop the war in Iran from going any further. We as the people have to stop it now.

I am in a bottom line sort of mood so please excuse my curt response. Its not to you but I am just sounding off to the high desert winds of Northern Arizona.

1) War is not the problem ... its the effects of the problem
2) War is profitable ... Google President Eisenhower's farewell speech on the military complex.
3) Politicians do not run any country ... the money behind them do
4) People (social citizens of all nations) are loving yet stupid for not facing up to the fact that item number 3 above is one of the major leverage points for change
5) People (social citizens of all nations)do not know how and thus can not hold there politicians and the money behind them legally nor morally ACCOUNTABLE. Politicians can not be sued in court for lack of "Prudent" (a legal term) Leadership ... and it takes years to get them out of office.

And finally ...

The only reason we all turn our heads and walk away is because each of us either hopes or knows that when we graduate from this place ... its going to be better.

All In My Opinion
The author takes no responsibility for what he writes or says in matters of political-financial agendas.

"Its so hard to find politicians of high character and morals ... that they will stay bought. And then on those same principles, well they aren't of much account either ... except at election time" M. Twain (paraphrased)

Seeking to inspire the spirit of man ... to create a world of dignity ... peace ... and joy.

Lawrence writes: "3) Politicians do not run any country ... the money behind them do"

in my understanding:
1 yes, a handful of corporations run not only this country but most of the world (with the exception of cuba, venezuela, iran & a couple of other countries I forget at the moment)
2 not just the above mentioned corporations run the world but also the so-called federal reserve, which, incidentally, is not a department of the us federal government
3 not just those corporations plus the federal reserve but the us pentagon as well
4 not just all of the above but the cia & fbi as well

corollary: the us president as well as 99.9% of the us politicians, regardless of their party affiliation, are some of the people through which the world powers (points 1-4 above) express themselves

in my view, the pentagon wants a war going on -- any war will do -- not just to use its money & technology but also to keep the soldiers engaged in killing others rather than killing each other in a no-war boredom

money = your lover

Thank you for your comments. You remind me of the fact that we are all meant for a certain purpose while here and beyond here will probably a much better place. Peace to you, cathyg48

"Fascae" is from Latin: to bind. The question on my mind, is "Bound to What, by What?"

Bound by fear, or freed by Love?

Bound to abstract Nation, or freed to co-create as Agent of Planetary Intelligence?

Bound to economic models of scarcity, or freed to "get down" in ecstatic Global Abun-dance?

Bound to hierarchy of wealth and privilege, or freed by the wisdom: "do unto others as you would have done unto you?"
