I am saying that we won't.

THAT pisses me off. I have watched as we have accepted this constant shift towards greed and inhumanity with little more than some grumbling and we deny that the socioeconomic model that we are all living in is why it is happening..

But we won't consider changing it. That would make those people in power no longer have that power. They have programmed us to believe that it would be a disaster to consider revamping the entire model to remove the ability of money (and their power) to take over our government and our lives. Because that is why they are in power in the first place. You remove their wealth, they seldom have little redeeming qualities.

But, even with the reality staring us in the face, we refuse to even consider changing it.

So, we obviously want this. And, this all will happen again because we want it to.
