The US in America - UNITED WE STAND

The United States of America

 United We Stand 

(: uh oh, more opinions from the guy in the Tinfoil Tophat :)

And we continue to choose sides like Left Wing / Right Wing? How logical. United We Stand ?

Why?  Maybe because the it is way we are programed to think.  

Somehow we are all guilty of being fooled into "believing" that VOTING works for US. I'm sorry to burst everyone's bubble but...

Do you know how the voting in the US of A works? Do some basic research for yourself. You may not see the answers you were expecting.  After reading it over a few times you will see and then understand what I mean in my blog post(s) here. 

       Everything you see and hear today is about how much we are divided, or different from each other. I know, Weird huh, everyone is different.  Who in the world would have thought we are all different from eachother? All these centuries of living together as humans on the face of this earth and we still have to go out of our ways to point out differences every day?!?!  I mean just what in the hell are you thinking. Pardon the pun, but come on people of the world hear me, We ARE different in Many ways this fact can never be changed. Are we actually united by differences? YES. This is how WE the People are indeed United, and Standing proud, side by side Along one another, for Humanity. 

        Pointing out differences is ill, negative and/or degrading ways of expressing programmed opinions that aren't even your true thoughts derived from years of power of suggestions constantly bombarding you into thinking you're having a MacAttack, Freek'n for Curly Fries, or bananasplit.... the list is endless. Suggestion there is consume. We watch the news and Obey. We watch Hollywood to know how to act and be our fake selves. We follow without questioning anything.  Fact of the matter is if you water your own grass nurture it with a gentle hand letting it mature on it's own without rushing it, and everyone else will want your lawn no matter how nice their looks from the curb. Don't be so eager to be like everyone else! Be yourself. Start today! This can unite us if we try. Stop worrying about what everyone thinks of you and they might even get on with their lives too.

 United We Stand? We could once again. In fact, i'm sure of it!

No matter what they call each other, they are still birds.

An important part of the United States government is the right of every person over the age of 18 to vote. Voting is not only a right, but a privilege and a responsibility. 

In the case where one person does not have a majority of Electoral College votes, then the House of Representatives votes on who will be president.

  Well, it seems all the rich folks get to decide and if they can't then the poor vote comes into play. Just so you know, It never happens! Smoke and mirrors so to speak. You have been taught what and how to believe. What were you taught in school? A history that never made any sense whatsoever? They taught us Columbus found America and about wars in history class! I know, weird right?  They taught us about how a bill go into law....  Well that's shot now too...   Ummm  School makes us Smarter........lmao sorry couldn't keep a straight face there. I'm ok now. American history is fake. Did you know the first American leader was black? That didn't go over well with the Masons. Not at all. As you can see, the Masons took the land of the west by conquest. With mass genocide across the great western land now known as the USA. With no one left to debate who owns what or even what actually happened, history was then rewritten to fit the agenda of land sales to the east.  You say to yourself, he's speculating", but am I really? They lost control of a mass amount of people living far away from big cities living in small villages owning farms and business. This didn't set well with the money bags. They saw money they could not touch, so they made a law and regulated their total earnings and assets. This caused setbacks, but that didn't stop the farmers. They went and got Loans to keep things running. So the moneybags came up with a new idea, Taxes!!!  Ah, the mighty Taxes. Everything was going good until they did what we were told we left the Queens rule for. Taxes???

Now it seems the Queens was involved..  Wow, So many rabbit holes, so little time. Instead of a blog, maybe I should just write a book or two or three...  He he he. 

 It seems a bit more like a Divided We Stand kinda Nightmare.   

You say left, I say right, you say day, I say night....

   

  We all strive to be creative, curious and intuitive, while being logical, strategic and rational but yet we still think our voting system works. Well, it doesn't work at all for the people of the USA and hasn't in a real long ass time. It does work well for the wealthy billionaires. ah hell, even a simple millionaire is having a rough time in one way or another. 

  Everyone see's what is going on, but no one believes it is really happening. Things are NOT AS THEY SEEM TO BE. Many comedians have joked about "The American Dream". One even said, "You have to be asleep to believe it!". He wasn't that far off as some would like you to think. 

 The American Dream and the American Way are terms which refer to the dreams and ideals of generations of Americans. There is much debate over exactly which dreams and ideals these are, and the term is often used ironically. 

 Now a days everyone is so Politically Correct Hypercorrect it is impossible to please anyone until they, us all, realise we are different and it cool. Being yourself is so much better than putting on a fake front and acting like an idiot we saw on TV or in a movie somewhere.  

     Everyone is so busy correcting everyone else they forget to correct themselves which leads everyone into thinking quite differently indeed. If I said I could make, oh say somewhere around, one million people all do the same thing, would you believe me? No? Then go take the ice bucket  challenge. LOL. Ok, so I made my point. So many people are so eager to be like everyone else it's getting to the point of ridiculousness. 

Are you rational and like to live by the rules?

 Or creative and curious? 

What really is the "American Dream"?

• The American dream is, in part, responsible for a great deal of crime and violence because people feel that the country owes them not only a living but a good living.
  • Psychoanalyst Dr. David Abrahamsen, San Francisco Examiner and Chronicle (November 18th, 1975)

• But there has been also the American dream, that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for every man, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.
  • James Truslow Adams introduced the term "American Dream" in his 1931 book The Epic of America (2nd Edition, Greenwood Press, p. 404)

• The American Dream, that has lured tens of millions of all nations to our shores in the past century has not been a dream of material plenty, though that has doubtlessly counted heavily. It has been a dream of being able to grow to fullest development as a man and woman, unhampered by the barriers which had slowly been erected in the older civilizations, unrepressed by social orders which had developed for the benefit of classes rather than for the simple human being of any and every class.
  • James Truslow Adams, The Epic of America (2nd Edition, Greenwood Press, p. 405)

• The American Dream has run out of gas. The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It's over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now: the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Vietnam.
  • J. G. Ballard, in an interview in Metaphors No. 7, (1983)

• It's called the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.
  • George Carlin(R.I.P.), from his "Life Is Worth Losing" stand-up routine (2005)

• I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."
  • Martin Luther King, Jr., I Have a Dream Speech

• Seeking the invisible through the imagery of the visible, the Americans never can get quite all the way to the end of the American dream.
  • Lewis H. Lapham, Money and Class in America,Chapter 1, The Gilded Cage, p. 28

• Do I have to change my name? Will that get me far?
  Do I have to lose some weight, am I going to be a star? ...
  I'm just living out the American Dream
  And I just realized that nothing is what it seems.
  
  
  
  
  • Madonna, American Life from the song American Life (2003)

• American queen is the American Dream
  She is a Polish girl in America
  Tall, tanned, hot, blonde, called Anya
  I asked her, "Why would you wanna be a Hollywood wife?"
  "Because I don't wanna end up living in a dive on Vine."
  • Marina and the Diamonds, Hollywood from the album The Family Jewels (2010)

• If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.
  • Barack Obama, Election victory speech, (4 November 2008)

• I'm Miss American Dream since I was seventeen
  • Britney Spears, Piece Of Me from the album Blackout (2007)

• Your remainder is an unjustifiable, egotistical power struggle
  At the expense of the American Dream
  Of the American Dream
  • System of a Down, A.D.D. from the album Steal this Album! (2002)

• "I hate to say this," said my attorney as we sat down at the Merry-Go-Round Bar on the second balcony, "but this place is getting to me. I think I'm getting the Fear."
  "Nonsense," I said. "We came here to find the American Dream, and now that we're right in the vortex you want to quit." I grabbed his bicep and squeezed. "You must realize," I said, "that we've found the main nerve."
  "I know," he said. "That's what gives me the Fear."
  • Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Chapter 6, A Night on the Town...p. 47-48

• Who are these people? These faces! Where do they come from? They look like caricatures of used-car dealers from Dallas. And, sweet Jesus, there are a hell of a lot of them - still screaming around these desert — city crap tables at four thirty on a Sunday morning. Still humping the American Dream, that vision of the Big Winner somehow emerging from the last minute pre-dawn chaos of a stale Vegas casino.
