To run for government office, and be a possible winner, deserves protection, even if some disagree.
The Right of the People to assemble, does not mean mob rule.
Obstruction of the function of a duly elected government is not to be tolerated, if you do not like them, organize, vote, and then demand the same for those you chose.
Freedom of Speech applies to all parties.
OWS had food, medical, a library, but with thousands, lacked Public Safety. There was no one to deal with one person using the cover of a crowd to throw rocks, commit rape or robbery, so they were all guilty.
Breaking windows and looting stores is not protest, assembly, or free speech.
Do not give them excuses to pass more laws.
The issue is that government and the rich get a better deal than the citizens, and we demand equality. Government workers should make private worker income, and pay Social Security. The Law of the Land, should apply to Congress, no insider trading. Elections should not be bought. Taxes should be spread over all income, no Capital gains, no Social Security stops at $115,000, all earned income should be taxed. High incomes should be taxed at higher rates.
We are the Stockholders of a National Corporation, we have the right to say how it is run. We have the Votes. |

The Masters, whom are human, are a slave to their culture where ever they live, as are the rest of us. It is part of what makes all of us who we are. And as each year goes by, culture becomes more of a vague concept, because humans have lost their ability to wrap their minds around it.
A human is an animal tethered to it's nature, there is no way to escape it.
Culture has no concern for human limits, nor does nature.
The point of Singularity, for all practical purposes, is already here for many. It means nothing for some in the world who are completely separated from it, living the way humans have lived for thousands of years.
Only time will tell, but they may prove out to be the most advanced among us. Only a slave to each other and the natural environment that encompasses their reality.
The technologies behind Climate controlled households, Hot Water Heaters, Refrigeration and Sanitatation, are likely the apex of Human achievement.
For the most part everything beyond this is icing on the cake or poison. The problem now, is determining what is icing and what is poison.
The larger problem is that humans are no longer in control of the experiment they have created, instead the subject and the slave of that experiment, that has moved well beyond the comprehension of humanity.
One choice has not changed: Adapt or Perish. It's questionable if the Master of Culture is a long term effective adaptation. Only time will tell. |
