an·ar·chy
P^Pronunciation Key^^(nr-k)

2. Absence of any cohesive principle, such as a common standard or purpose.

Some people refer to me as an "Anarchist" because I ask repeatedly for accountability for blatently treasonous acts. Because I go against the "Norm"....

The "Norm" being what got us to where we are today.

I want you to understand what's going on in Washington D.C. right now...

Over the last 50 years or so, our Government has slowly been "infiltrated" by individuals who's only purpose is to better themselves, their friends, and their families.

As a result of this, more policies have been made that benefit the 1%, or the "ruling class", rather than the rest of Americans.

Right now, we're feeling the effects of what happens when a Government stops serving the people, and starts serving themselves.

In the last 5 years alone, our Government has...

1. Committed Election Fraud in 2000/2004, destroying the very foundation for a "Democracy".
2. Turned back critical environmental safeguards that benefit ALL life on earth.
3. Lied to the American People on COUNTLESS occasions regarding The War, The Medicare Bill, 9/11, etc...
4. Committed Treason by releasing the identity of a CIA Operative, presumably causing the deaths of 70 CIA agents around the world. All for retaliation against Joseph Wilson.
5. Changed our policy from a defensive nature to a pre-emptive one.
6. Created policy that CONDONES the use of torture. Something that goes against morality, AND the "Geneva Conventions".
7. Created policy that goes against the very foundations of what makes America, America. The Patriot Act I, and the Patriot Act II.

Obviously more can be added to this list. My point is...

Our Government, with the absence of any form of political authority to hold those responsible for what I mentioned accountable, creates political disorder and confusion.

Essentially creating a state of "Anarchy".

If our Government is in a state of "Anarchy", then what does that say for the wellbeing of our Country?

WAKE UP AMERICA! ;)

We'll never know.

I hope that's not the case.

A more appropos questions is:

If our Government is in a state of "Anarchy", then what does that say for the Sheeple, the 'sleeping American's' whom, by their apathy and lack of action, enable and allow it to propagate to where we can no longer recognize this as the America most of us grew up in?

BTW Mary... you'll find me to be a bit sarcastic at times... If you can't laugh, then what's the point?

Historically speaking, I'm not sure a majority of humanity has ever paid much attention to what their government has done. People tend to accept their living conditions and try to make the best of it, a survival instince if you will.

It isn't until life becomes completely intolerable that people are willing to put aside their day to day existance, their petty differences and join together to fight the system.

look at how many attempts there was for uprising in pre-revolutionary france ... how long did the feudal system in England last ... you find the same patterns in ancient histories as well as in our own past.

I believe it will take the end (or the blatant forseeable end) of the current American way of life (and all the comforts we have become acustomed to) for the people to take note and action

I think 'democratically elected corporate oligarchy' is a better description of the current political system in the US.

Also, the reason that Anarchy also means 'chaos and lack of organization' is the result of a capatalist propaganda campaign against anarchhists that began in the late 1800's when Anarchy was a legitimate political principal. Anarchy actually is a political system based on cooperation and personal responsability. I have always been annoyed that people continue to perpetuate the lie of 'chaos'. However, it is a good example of how, after enough time, we begin to internalize propoganda until it is just taken as good sense. Hence, why people always cringe when you say the word 'Socialisim'. We have been trained well.
