54. Another impossible, un-passable, distraction based on 3 false "problems"
America faces three great, urgent challenges. We need a new social contract for economic growth that enables Americans to get ahead again. We need a new strategy to make America safe again. And we need a new sense of patriotism and responsibility that unites us in common purpose again.


"Social contract for economic growth" - Since when has any social contract ever resulted in economic growth? Oh yea, never. What has, and will, create economic growth is getting more money into the hands the people on the lower end of the spectrum. But we can't promote that because our corporate masters wouldn't like it.

"...a new strategy to make America safe again" - Baseless bullshit further feeding the fear, we are in no more danger than we were in 2000 or 1990 or 1950. We are a global empire that has stolen from, and killed, millions of people and, for some reason, they have taken it personally, They just don't understand that it's "just business", the ignorant fools.

"...a new sense of patriotism and responsibility that unites us in common purpose again." - Just code for sacrificing more of our rights on the alter of "safety", and lowering expectations of what should be provided for the taxes they steal from us.
