"...an epic clash of stereotypes" - a facebook mini SciFi short-story

- Ron Caswell There's no Democracy in this country. It's a Corporatocracy. Our politicians cycle through the revolving corporate door. They're CEOs, lawyers, bankers before they get elected. Then they are bought by the lobbyists while in office. Only to go back through the corporate door once they are out of office. The word here is Corporatocracy. Some might call it Fascism. I call it a bunch of greedy SOBs that are destroying the middle class. They give the poor welfare, food stamps and subsidized housing to keep them complacent. Are they going to give the entire middle class these same benefits to keep us complacent? A buddy of mine got a $44,000 check the other day for back pay owed to him. After taxes he got $19,000. He just happened to make over a $100,000 for Con Ed that year so he qualified for the higher tax bracket. The government took 56% of his income. That doesn't account for all of the other hidden taxes like tolls, gasoline, real estate, cigarettes, etc... It's getting close to the time where we grab our guns and march on Washington. Oh wait... they took those rights away too.Yesterday at 1:45am · LikeUnlike

Ron Caswell Great, but I was hoping to make it more to the front of the line to be eaten.

Larry Levine ...o.k., then go back to that "grab our guns and march" rap, and work it for all it's worth. Good luck.

Larry Levine Yes, thanks. I suspect it may happen fairly soon. (Ron's location: floor cracks open, and the first tentacle appears...) THE END
