The state of perpetual inequality that exists today has outraged millions of Americans. The harsh realities of life have been completely alien to a government and certain individuals who could make a difference but don’t. They have existed for the sole purpose of glorifying and preserving themselves.
The needs of millions of Americans have never been fully realized, always shunned by the power structure of selfish bureaucrats. When the government initiates some semblance of relief to ease the economic burdens of so many, it does so with such reserve that the end results have always been pathetic.
The wheels of government continue to turn too slowly and when they do finally act, their actions are mostly self-directed. As a consequence the great inequality continues and more Americans will suffer the realities of the already impoverished multitudes.
One cannot help but wonder how things are today, will we be synonymous with being in harmonious union with each other, as a society that has become so disillusioned? When so few control the media, the financial system, and even our government, our society is not controlled by a democratic process, but is instead being manipulated by a power structure that we have not chosen.
Today, the world’s democracies are dominated by the oligarchy. An elite of the ruling class that has systematically taken control of governments. Unbeknownst to the public, they have deceptively maneuvered themselves into positions of power and control. It seems that we are powerless in the face of such aversion to restore the basic principles of our foundation.
As long as the divisions continue, this ruling class of the oligarchy will continue to have absolute control over society. We see what is happening with the continued support of Trump and the administration whose failure to act on reforms that would alleviate much of the financial burdens that contribute to our nation’s inequality. The divisions caused by the past Administration continue their domino effect that mirrors the great divisions in our nation today.
There are many questions of discernment that need to be resolved. Has our society deviated from the fellowship of man? It is this communion that unites us all in harmony with each other, with nature and with our environment. The human race should have evolved to a point in this time, the 21st century, where the aggressive violent behavior that has existed since Cain murdered Able we would have grown up intellectually where reason, compromise and empathy set aside our aggressive tendencies . However, the world is dominated by aggressive violent acts perpetrated against each other.
When we think of all the wonderful innovations and inventions that the mind of man has come up with, humanity has the ability to cast aside the aggressive and violent behavior that continues to disrupt man’s ability to bring harmony to our world. Unfortunately though, the will to do so continues to elude many, especially those who are in a position to do so. They are the ones who have the availability to influence and educate society in ways to foster the human spirit of goodwill towards all living beings.
His inability to actively commit his resources to the common good runs deep. When we have certain individuals who control the institutions that could and should be used to make a difference, they are more inclined to accelerate the status quo that continually benefits them. Today’s government is no different.
Human nature has always been linked to the temptations of greed and the lust for materialistic gratification to quench thirst. This happens when they are recipients of money, or have great influence over others. It is this behavior that has penetrated many in our government and many who have already been recipients of wealth.
