Unemployment, as I understand it, is at an all-time here in the glorious US of A. Our government is raping its people with the stealth of a drunken frat boy slippin' it into a passed-out sorostitute, with all the insidious, destructive results. Nobody outside the US really likes America, or at least the mob of brain-dead whores that announces itself as America. God, if he ever reciprocated the trust that America had in him, certainly doesn't now. Can you blame him? He's got fundamentalist beasts roaring in his name, and I bet that if you were to sit down with any of them and discuss theology, you'd get nothing but idiotic literalist interpretations of the Bible, quotes from which would come mostly from the fucking Old Testament. Convicted fucking criminals hold government positions, underpaid, uneducated, and apathetic drones carry out those criminals' orders, and the economy is a motherfucking joke. Hell, America is a joke, and a bad one at that, because the monsters telling the joke have a prison cell waiting for everyone who doesn't laugh and ask politely to hear another one.

Christ, this country is the best place I've ever lived, but it disgusts me how it became such a great place to live. Is it because Americans are conscientious, well-informed, and caring as a people? No, it's because of dirty tricks, lying politicians, disinformation, hysteria, and war. But you know what? Despite all the underhanded shit pulled in order for me to have the standard of living that I do, I'm willing to put it aside- not entirely, but momentarily, because I understand history well enough to accept that nobody has ever come to power through altruism and virtuous behavior. Nevertheless, the wretched power wielded by the government is growing at such a rate as to exceed the standard level of deceit and shadowy activity pursued by governments worldwide. It exceeds the standard so much that America will set a new standard: no longer will the US be beholden to the Corruption Index, but it will become the focus of a Corruption Index 2.0, the Aberrant Democracy Index. How willing officials and businessmen are to take bribes will only be a small part of the ADI; how willing the government is to sacrifice the ideals it was founded upon will be the new measurement. And not only will the government be accountable, but the sheep, the people who unswervingly believe what the news has to say, the people who support half halfwit/half cunning fucks like George W. Bush, the people that believe that slapping a US flag bumper sticker on their car means something, will be accountable.

And there will be no mercy for them. Those who choose not to vote for ethical reasons will be receive more leniency than those who willingly pissed away the ideals of America into the mouths of the politicians, businessmen, bankers, and multinational con artists. The fools who express joy that America is being eaten alive by snitches, databases, lawyers, soldiers operating on national soil, politicians, and related vermin will burn far more fiercely than any poor soul in any of Dante's circles of hell, because they are giving in to the atavistic human urge, an urge that Wilhelm Reich was fully aware of, to let someone else take control. They will be consigned to a hell wherein they are eternally raped by flaccid politicians, mouth-fucked by the batons of cops who couldn't even earn their GED, and mournfully stared at by the loved ones- and even strangers- that they sold out in the name of that false, greedy, and thoroughly wicked god, SECURITY.

Fuck security. Security is for people who do nothing and believed their high school teachers. Security is for all the poor bastards in the Korean DMZ waiting for the shit to hit the fan. Security is for people who think the God they hear about on Sunday bears any resemblance to the true God. Security is for paranoids, who know that someone is out to get them (and probably a whole lot of others in the bargain). Security is for assholes who shop at the mall. Security is for anyone who thinks the government won't fuck them over to make a buck, sieze an oil field, or secure a seat in the Senate.

"...all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed." -The United States Declaration of Independence

Translation: people are far too willing to take shit. If Americans would read this damned document, they'd realize that it's their right to tell the government to fuck off and die.


As a famous fellow Virginian once said, "give me liberty or give me death."

As famous fellow Texans once said, "come and take it."

Thanks to Hunter S. Thompson, for all the obvious reasons.
