The Value of a Human Life

The Gee Dub Hoover Administration, the economic crisis, and the health
care discussion have all served to vividly define the situation of
these United States of America (see 'narrative of the voyage of the
bloody, snake chariot' at www.libbyhome.blogspot.com ) - for those who
have eyes to see.

We live in a pure plutocracy (rule by the rich, socialism for the
rich, government welfare for the corporations). Government by the
money, for the money, from the money, rules.

Every first world country in the world, except for these United States
has universal health care. We are the only country, in the world, that
has this profit/greed-driven health care system from Hell. In this
Americans are revealed to be the greatest bee-otches of the
corporations' agenda.

The Christian Right, which has been such a big political factor in all
this, has chosen not to serve two masters. The Christian Right only
serves Mammon.

Everyone walks around spouting such crack-pot, lunatic political
non-thought all of which precludes taking effective political action.

What if JFK's assassination, Oklahoma City, 9/11 are all dark,
nefarious, government conspiracies? The only logical response would be
to organize armed insurrection against the government. This would have
to involve blowing up the buildings that house the powers-that-be,
assassinating politicians and corporation executives.

I don't see those who are spouting this crack-pot, lunatic political
non-thought doing this. They are only spouting lunacy which precludes
taking any effective action, and justifies endless masturbation of
conspiracy theory.

In this profit/greed-driven health care system from Hell the value of
a human life is judged to be about how much money you have - and only
that. You might be an important artist, musician, writer. You might be
a good parent, a loving, compassionate pillar of your family, your
community. You might have worked hard all your life, been a steady
provider for others. But if in the end when you are face to face with
the existential parameters of the Human Circumstances - if you have no
money - you are given the bum's rush out the hospitals' door.

We have again come to a time, in our shared national experience, when
it is the time to take it into the streets.

Any politician who works against true reform of health care is
revealed to be the medical insurance gangsters, the pill pimps -
whore.

It's time to take back our country.

This land is my land. This land is your land. This land was made for
you and me - and definitely wasn't made for the dirty, stinking,
black-hearted plutocrats.
