21. My opinion...

Nov 2015

...is that Obama entered a very rigged, powerful game that has been in play for a long time.

He can do somethings, but I truly think he is powerless to stop a great deal of it.

I think there's a big party going on, behind the curtain. Powerful politicians (who are nothing but bought-off Pez dispensers) and the corporations/elites are designing a world in which they enrich each other beyond their wildest dreams.

"We The People" of course, are not invited to said party.

We don't get to wear lampshades on our head, nosh on caviar or klink glasses with the other sociopathic bastards. We're supposed to continue working our six jobs at slave wages--and like it.

Obama wasn't the President that broke up this nonsense and gave us our country back. I am hoping that Bernie can give it a whirl.
