Boy, do they ever think you're stupid.
On the local level. [Click here.]
On the national level. [Click here.]
Today, you find yourselves awash in currents taking you to a land of politicians and agency types assuming full control over your very lives. They're rummaging through every aspect of your life, and taking anything they want away from you.
And they think you won't ever know. Or if you know, you won't understand. And if you understand, you really won't care.
So, they're free to do whatever they want. Steal whatever they want from you. Lie to you whenever they want about their "deficit," when it's actually a surplus—because they want that fare hike, and then they whine when you complain, knowing full well you'll stop.
Lie to you about how much cash and how many hundreds of trips to Las Vegas and New Orleans with hookers and booze they've been given by the five Media Corporations, since their decision to deregulate your radio, your TV and your newspaper was bought and paid for by these corporations three years ago. They can even cavalierly disregard over A HALF A MILLION E-MAILS you sent to their web site at the FCC, 97% of which objected to their actions. Because you're not gonna follow up. You're gonna let it ride. Because you're just gonna say, "It's the government. What can ya do, right?" Right?
And you won't put up a fight, or do anything to stop them, right?
That is what they think.
So, hit'em where it hurts.
Scream. Yell. Write anyone and everyone about how pissed off these guys make you. It's time to go on a mission. It's time to run down to your video store and rent the movie "Network" again. It's passed time, actually. It's time to hang your heads out the window and holler, "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it, anymore!"
They can be stopped.
By you.
And only by you.
When you say, "Enough!"
Think back to when you were taught that these people were in those positions to represent and serve you, then use the link below to write and complain about thieving scum like the FCC's Michael Powell in Washington and his counterpart in your state (you know you have them, just like we do here in NYC) to put them on notice that Rube is awake, and alive and angry.
Get Angry! Have your say. Write your elected officials now!
