Orwell's 99%

George Orwell believed our so called democracy would degenerate into an oligarchy controlled by less than 1% of the population by 1984. He also knew about basic human needs that go beyond a bowl of porridge and a roof to keep the rain away. He understood the need need for sunshine and a sense of purpose. When Reagan lifted the restraints on capitalism monopolies thrived, and the hope of a sun based economy died along with the solar bank bill proposed by Jimmy Carter... BUT we can't blame all our social problems on politicians who buckle under the pressure of special interests lobbies. We can only blame ourselves for the mess we are in. BUT... we don't have to be sheep any longer. We can learn to read between the lines. After the Kennedy's were assassinated and the Nixon administration took over and removed us from the gold-standard our economic system had no legs to stand on. The additional assignations of Martin Luther King and John Lennon also weakened the reform movements. By the time the Bush Dynasty took over and the 9/11 fiasco led us into an unjust war the housing market/bail out scam was ready to collapse our fragile economic system, but we can still rise from the ashes and build a more viable green energy economy if we understand how our Brave New World works. We may even be able we'll be able to play the game with the big boys. This is what the internet is for. Support the movement, become informed and share your information.
