FEUDALISM SUCKS! and That's What We Have in the USA Today... Under Trump's Tax Cut for the Rich Law Amazon Paid Zero Taxes... Isn't The Land of Bezos a Monarchy?

Do You Know any Employees of Amazon? It's Like Being a Serf in the Middle Ages...

Did you Know That All "IBM CLONE" Computers are Required to Have Windows installed... We Used UNIX to run The Business (Radio Shack - 6,000 Stores, 4 Computers per Store) but Had To Pay KING Bill Gates Anyway...  When the Computers Booted up Every Morning, First Windows Would Launch... and then It Would Call UNIX... So Windows was allways running in the background... doing nothing... except occupying space and resources pointlessly...

and then KPL said on FaceBooB... another Kingdom... 
Let’s say we do what Trump wants and just let everyone get infected with COVID 19 and weed out those that don’t make it through. Okay now let’s say that’s 3% of the US population. That’s 9,930,000 people with the US population being 310,000,000 in 2020. Are you willing to let that many people die or suffer with debilitating complications from the virus? I know I have ethics and morals and I’m not willing to do that. And now the CDC postings can’t even be trusted because Trump has taken control of that agency and their messaging. Wear your damn masks, social distance, wash your hands frequently and use your brain unless you are willing to let that many people die! And now that kids are going back to school and most people are back to work too the flu and colds that can cause bronchitis are going to go up and hospitalizations combined with COVID cases are going to completely overwhelm our hospitals again. What are you going to do when there’s no room at the hospital and you get in a car accident or you start having symptoms of a stroke or heart attack?

PW Replied: 

Exactly why we don't have Medicare4All. It's genocide.

I don't care who anyone is voting for. Seriously I don't. So long as they don't try to vote shame me.


But it's clear the DNC doesn't give a SHIT about people and only maintaining their Corporate COUP agenda. The oligarchy will continue to whip up Trump's rhetoric to make us fall in line.

By continuing to DEMAND #Medicare4All we keep pressure on them until November!

I think this is all just a sick game the uber rich are playing to see what it takes to make us give up with NO concessions on their part! Greedy bastards.

Oh hell no! Biden is starting to tank! Watch Trump get even more scary to make us concede to their agenda!

If the DNC was Sincere about wanting to win
they would offer Medicare4All!

90% Of voters ... Game over! ... but they didn't! Ask yourself why?


and then KPL said: 

I will say that the #1 proposal at the Michigan Democratic Party convention this past weekend was Medicare for All and was adopted as a party priority, at least that how I read it when I was sent a link to the proposals made to the party this last weekend. I’m not saying that it will happen or guaranteeing anything, I’m just telling you it was #1 on issues. And yes, Biden is a POS and so are many dems as well as most all republicans. They all suck.

and then VD on FaceBooB said: 

Excerpts from Robert Harrington's excellent article tonight, Palmer Report:
Whatever choice Trump made, his base was safe. He didn’t need to pander to them, what he needed was to pander to the fence sitters. He could have scooped them up because many of them were still available for the scooping. All he had to do was roll up his sleeves and get ahead of the best that Europe and Asia were doing in response to the pandemic and beat them at their own game. He already had Obama’s 69 page pandemic response playbook. He could have taken credit for its contents, just like he took credit for Obama’s economy.
The murder of George Floyd was even easier. All Trump had to do was condemn his murder, sign a toothless executive order and denounce police violence against people of color. There’s very little actual work involved in that.
Imagine the boasts Trump could have proclaimed had he beat South Korea and Germany and New Zealand and Iceland at their own games. Imagine the endless bragging he could have done at the RNC. Instead, the European Union, with a larger population than the United States, averages 77 deaths a day, while the United States averages over a thousand. Instead, Trump gave a rambling, barely coherent, rancid speech on the final night, replete with his usual boneheaded mispronunciations (Waldorf instead of walled-off, resilience in place of reliance, etc) and a putrid abuse of jingoistic fireworks and songs, one of which that will no doubt have the estate of Leonard Cohen sending cease and desist orders very soon.

We live in Feudalism 2.0 and Wage Slavery. Employee Owned Businesses or Customer Owned Businesses are a better way.

What we have today is an economic system where the super rich have purchased Senators and Congressmen who pass laws designed to steal from the poor and give to the rich.  It's a lot like Feudalism where the Lords owned the land and the peasants worked it as serfs. Nowadays we are wage slaves. There IS an alternative...

Great Book:What Then Must We Do...  Gar Alperovitz talked about his book, What Then Must We Do?: Straight Talk About the Next American Revolution, in which he argues that the U.S. economy needs to be more responsive to ordinary citizens. He also talked about the need to build on the “Occupy” movement.

Yes, there is an alternative to capitalism: Mondragon shows the way by Richard Wolff.

Are we to believe, with Margaret Thatcher, that an economic system with endlessly repeated cycles, costly bailouts for financiers and now austerity for most people is the best human beings can do? Capitalism's recurring tendencies toward extreme and deepening inequalities of income, wealth, and political and cultural power require resignation and acceptance – because there is no alternative?
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2012/jun/24/alternative-capitalism-mondragon

The Mondragon Corporation is a corporation and federation of worker cooperatives based in the Basque region of Spain

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.

During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world. We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and Fallout Shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
