4th of July George Washington

 George Washington was an English colonist and thus was a second class citizen of the British Empire.  He was educated, rich and was already at the top of what a second class citizen could become because they were not allowed to rule.  The proper class was appointed by the King or Queen to run the colonies in the proper manner.

Skip ahead a few hundred years, a single breath in the times of countries and empires to the United States of America, the 4Th of July and those who are now in power.  Look at where the last three, four presidents were educated.  Examine if you can find it where the boards of directors of the largest banks, insurance and oil companies were educated.  Companies that are too large to fail are brothers in education/training with the individuals in government and industry that stole from the people and were given respect by their peers for making you poor.

Today, we in America again are faced with the Peers of the empire who are not allowing the Middle Americans, the people the right to rule, tax or decide the future of your country.

George started with a very few.  They started writing, expressing their ideas that there is a better way.  Today we have the internet.  A way to communicate and join together faster then George ever could.  Today there is unrest in the nation.  The people are not as dumb as the British Peers thought nor as the American royals think.  Today there are millions of Americans that know there are better ways then giving billions to failing industries.  That the way out of this economic recession brought on by the good ol boy royals is not more money but putting Americans to work.  They know the best way to have health care and retirement is to pay enough so people can afford them. 

The 4Th of July is coming.  Celebrate this great nation on the day we remember its birth.  Take but a moment to remember that the individuals that signed the document put their necks in a noose if they failed.  But most of all forget the hype of George Washington and remember that he wanted a country where people had a choice in religion and who ruled them.  Not a country ruled by the few.
