How the monied control you |

Today I was talking to a young black woman at tax classes. Her statement was she was going to lie low because opposing those in power makes you lose your job, et. This is how the moneied control the masses, fear. Joe Six Pac doesn't have the balls the French do. We could learn from the French.

1. It only works if you think you have something to lose. |

Conformity is stressed, all the while people think they're being individuals by the car they buy or the clothes they wear.
People that stand out now make other people uncomfortable. If you make independent decisions and are not predictable, you're a threat.
All of the things that have been done to our government will not matter to the average citizen until it affects their daily life. Until THEY notice a change, it's all just a distraction.
Those who lie low are just hoping to stay in the good graces for a little while longer. Because if you feel like you're the kind of person that somebody might want kept down, you're probably right.
