-Caveat Lector- In a message dated 99-12-18 18:42:35 EST, you write: << They are the Elite because we permit them to be the Elite, no other reason.>> You are correct, but try to get people to work together. I doubt even 100 of the 400 or so people on this list could work together. <<(1.) If you believe that, then they've brainwashed you. Do not let yourself be transfixed by the illusary omnipitance of the state. It's a house of cards. Pay attention to the man behind the curtain.>> Change rarely takes place by peaceful means. The ATF, FBI, CIA, IRS etc. are not an illusion. I ask who is the "man behind the curtain" and get as many answers as there are people I ask ... Bankers, lawyers, corporations, government(s), masons, the ultra rich, commies, socialists, capitalists, white people, black people, brown people, british, democrats, republicans, so on and so forth. The "divide and conquer" tactics have worked fairly good so far. <<(2.) The masses are not insignificant. We are the masses. We out number our rulers by millions to one. We don't even have to rise up as one to be rid of their rule. All we have to do is sit down. Refuse to do their bidding. Don't work for them. Don't buy their products. Don't use their money. Don't fight their wars. And the ruling class will shrivel and die. >> The masses are insignificant as far as the controllers of society are concerned. They do not hesitate to kill us, we must be willing to kill them to change things. Your theory of a sit down revolution cannot work in that we would have to get tens of millions of people to go along with it to be noticed, or just a few strategic cities, but people don't stick together very well and many think they have it good right now. If people would work together, then the ruling class would shrivel, but I just don't see that happening. If, by luck everyone found themselves penniless, people might pay attention to what is happening, but they didn't figure it out in 1929, did they? Unfortunately I am a realist, dreams have long ago faded away. Regards, Bob (I hope you're right) Stokes DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
