A short video that does a great job of outlining how our government, the military and corporations conduct business around the world.

Probably why we're so hated....

Maybe we should instead work on being self sufficient.

Of course that would mean Americans can't have so many cheap goods. It would also mean those at the top couldn't make more money. That will never fly in this country.

The governments idea of laws, rules, regulations and taxes, to steer us in the direction they wish, instead of a free liberty to choose the direction, we as individuals wish to take.

They herd us like cattle with laws, rules, regulations and taxes

And thank you for demonstrating the core nature of the American Sheeple know-it-all mentality that is in reality, totally clueless.

The narrator of the little cartoon posted is John Perkins, author of "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" and "The Secret History of the American Empire". He's not just an author making a claim ... he is an author describing his own PERSONAL ACCOUNTS and PARTICIPATION in the system he describes.

To those who are familiar with the inner workings of geopolitics, this information is not "news". In fact, there are so many examples, it is a mystery why more people haven't figured some of this out on their own. But when someone comes along and spells it out clearly, as Mr. Perkins has done (and he's not the only one) ... and the information is met with such inane response as you have done, that mystery is less mysterious.

There is a whole different world outside of American Idol, the NFL, and the Democrat versus Republican dog and pony show. Rather than dismiss that which you are unaware of ... listen ... learn ... become better informed about that real world operating behind the scenes ... this is not the information you are going to see on the evening news.

"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it wants what never was, and never will be" Thomas Jefferson.
