The Cull

The Cull

   How is it that a society allows itself to be victimized by its own citizens in such a way that would result in all out war if the very same crimes were inflicted upon it by another country? The crimes, growing in intensity and scope that are visited daily upon the American people by the wealthy and the corporate state are no different than crimes that would normally result in incarceration and sometimes even the death penalty by any other fellow citizens. Theft, grand theft, fraud, embezzlement, extortion, even homicide by the one percent is being executed by their politicians, media and military. The resulting pillage, destruction and actual murder that parallel the devastation wrought by an invading army are offered no resistance and are actually aided and abetted by the victims ourselves. The myth that anyone, if they work hard enough can advance in society and perhaps even become wealthy has been replaced by an instinctual or even actual awareness that every one and everything in this society is criminal and the only way to get ahead or even to survive is to become a criminal yourself. If you do survive, how many do you take out to survive? When will it be your turn? As the elite hedge their bets and build a new generation of bomb shelters, survival complexes and mountain sanctuaries in New Zealand, the useless eaters eat themselves.
