My Dear Peasants,

since the 30's, we have allowed you to gorge yourselves on the crumbs that have trickled down from our table. Well, those days are over! We who own the world have tried your little experiment. We thought that maybe, if we allowed you to have jobs that provided enough for one working member to support a family, you would be grateful and do what you were told without complaining but no! You wanted more. you wanted to be taken care of when your body was worn by age and you could no longer produce profits for us. If you lost your job, you were not content to go without or work for less crumbs. You demanded to be compensated while you were unemployed and not filling our coffers. So we gave you Social Security and Unemployment insurance and Medicare but were you happy? NO! You greedy parasites wanted even more. You wanted your children to be educated at our expense rather than working in our factories so we gave you that too! Were you satisfied? NO! Your list of demands just grew longer. Civil rights, equal rights, and then, as your educated children entered the fray, you wanted regulations. Clean food, Safe water, breathable air. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THIS HAS COST US?

Well, we finally wised up and realized that this was not working for us. When you started demanding the same tax breaks as us we knew it was time to shut it down. We installed Ronnie Reagan as President and have never looked back. It didn't take him long to take those silly tax breaks from you. Remember when you used to be able to write off the interest on your car loan just like we could on our Lear jets? Ha ha ha, gone. Remember when you used to be able to write off the interest on your credit cards because, after all, you had already payed taxes on the income you used to pay the banks and, after all, it was now income to them? Silly you. YOU ARE NOT US! You will never be us. Our post-feudal experiment is over.

Once again, we own everything. We own the representatives you think you elect. Oh, a few of them slip by, still holding onto the idea that they owe service to "You, the People" but we quickly turn them into millionaires who see things our way or we get rid of them like this Anthony fellow.

We own the media. ALL of it. The message you receive will be the one we tell you it will be. We've learned a lot over the years, from Caesar to Gobbles to Karl Rove. You are easily distracted so spend your useless lives watching what we call reality shows. They have absolutely nothing to do with reality but we will tell you what reality is so stop worrying.

And most importantly, we own you. We own your home equity. We own your pensions and your wages. We own everything you think you worked your whole life for because you made the simple mistake of thinking you were working for yourselves. You weren't, you were working for us. Oh yeah, you know all that free market bullshit? It was just that, bullshit. We own the market too.

So, the next one of you who I see licking the droplets off the floor from the $350.00 bottle of wine I'm drinking. I will squash you like a bug. It's time to learn your place again and I may want to de-flower your wife. Get over it Peasant!

1. Peasants, indeed. K&R

That's really is how they see us. The only reason they allow us to stay around is because they need our tax dollars. Without OUR money, they're screwed.

2. Na! I don't think so anymore. We have no money. We are just chattel.

They already have the money, we are just sucking up their resources.
