The Cradle of Democracy Should Defy the Autocrats & Kleptocrats | StealthFlation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On the old continent, this December 29th, a succinct political showdown is scheduled to take place which may well become a defining moment for our entirely unsettled new millenium. \u00a0What is at stake is none other than the prosperity of the common man pitted against the privilege of concentrated power. \u00a0Lamentably, this deliberate dogmatic divide has relentlessly defined human civilization for the ages.<\/p>\n

What is at hand isn\u2019t so much about lofty ideals. \u00a0It\u2019s not about Socialism. \u00a0It\u2019s not about Capitalism. \u00a0It\u2019s not about Communism. \u00a0It\u2019s not about being a progressive, or a conservative or a liberal. It\u2019s not about left vs right. \u00a0Forget all those dumbed down dichotomies. \u00a0It\u2019s much more fundamental than all of that. \u00a0Quite simply, it\u2019s about People vs. Power, that\u2019s it, nothing more. \u00a0Those that have and wield institutional power, and those that do not. \u00a0It\u2019s as elementary and base as that I\u2019m afraid.<\/p>\n

Take a good look around, I defy you to point to a single socioeconomic construct in our supposedly enlightened and advanced society of today which is not essentially determined by that crude polarizing characterization. \u00a0Whether it be our bought and paid for Political Class, our rapacious Banking Sector, our entitled Multinational Corporations, our entrenched Governmental Agencies, our marauding Military Industrial Complex, our fleecing Healthcare Providers, our muzzled Free Press, our hijacked Justice System, or our\u00a0grossly\u00a0overpaid CEOs, Athletes, and Entertainers, they all have one thing in common, and I assure you that it\u2019s not the common good that they share. \u00a0What they seek above all else is to expand the existing institutional dominion and their own privileges within it.<\/p>\n
