I recently saw a movie about greed, one of the seven deadly sins. It wasn’t about greed actually, been then again it was. It was about the development of robotic surrogates to be developed to give invalids a way to interact with the world ‘normally’.
A great and noble idea, but the profits from selling to such a small segment of the population would not be enough to satisfy the greed impulse of humans. Thus it was marketed to every human on the planet. Vanity was used in the pursuit of greed. No wonder the inventor of this technology did what he did.
Our federal government is currently based on greed. The very few powers granted to the federal government were not enough for to satisfy the greed impulse of the politicians elected to office. That experienced a little power and wanted more. Greed is like drinking salt water to quench your thirst, it never satisfies so you always want more.
And stealing powers from the people and the states isn’t enough. The federal government needs to keep the people distracted and ignorant, so they have programmed the people to ignore the Constitution and pursue ‘things’ at all cost. The acquisition of ‘things’, like power, will make us all happy we are told. Thus we go deep in debt to satisfy this never-ending thirst.
And even that isn’t enough. They need to indoctrinate our children so that they can’t think and know just enough to do the jobs they get so that they can perpetuate the debt/slavery machine to acquire things as they totally ignore the federal government and consider them gods. Because god status is the next level of power to try to satiate the thirst.
Read the Constitution! Educate yourselves and our children. Stop the greed of the federal government.
By the way, the movie was “Surrogates” with Bruce Willis and James Cromwell.
