You have owners. They OWN YOU! .... They want more for themselves and less for everyone else. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. They don't want people smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and fugure out how badly they're getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don't want that.

Know what they want? Obedient workers. Obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, reduced hours, end of benifets, end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the moment you go to collect it. Now they're coming after your social security money. You fucking retirement money. They want it back! So they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street.
