George Carlin said it best:

"THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU"

Hopefully this article (Unemployment Extension | Tier V Questionable Before Break | Breaking News WorldNewsVine) and the audacity of those in charge who keep laughing in our faces and demeaning us on a daily basis will finally ignite people to wake up and realize how true this statement is. Seriously. How much more are we, the middle and lower classes, going to take? Do you not understand how badly we're getting raped on a daily basis by corporate America? A corporate America, mind you, which is only getting stronger and stronger and stronger every day? Will there finally be a rebellion? Finally?

No, nothing will happen. At least I highly doubt it. Ignorant America will keep buying into the fear tactics and propaganda that the owners and media (which, by the way, go hand-in-hand if you haven't figured that out) keep hammering into our heads each and every day. We will succumb to them as we always, always do.

But hey, keep believing how great and "free" our country is. Keep believing that this is the land of opportunity and how we're the greatest nation in the world. And keep believing that people like me are just angry citizens who should move out of the country. Well, let me tell you: One, it is *you* who should move out, because it's your own damn fault this country is so screwed up. And two, GET angry. It is completely the appropriate emotion, and the only way anything's going to get done. Put down your stupid cell phones and laptops and other gadgets that you've been bought off with -- and get angry.

It is truly amazing how weak, stupid, and passive the general public really is. Too afraid to do anything. Too afraid to fight back. (It's quite comical.) They have us right where they want us, and they know it.

The reality is, this country's finished and it's been finished for a long time. And we have no one to blame but ourselves because we've done nothing about it. Fat, lazy, ignorant America. Great job people.
