This is some Bullshit..Gas is $4.75 a gallon, bottled soda is $1.79 for a small bottle, milk is $3.19 a gallon. I am in the suburbs of Chicago, today is my off day, I went to the Jewel food store to get some coffee mate for my coffee...the half gallon of coffee mate original creamer is $4.72, ok, I make a fair salary, I can make it. Gas, car note, morgage/insurance/netflix/cell phone the whole nine. But then again; it's only me, no small kids. Two out of my list is luxury...I can do without, BUT what I just saw in the grocery store was scary..Apparently there were four people in the store shopping (2) of the (4) were filling carts with food, and the other (2) were in the liquor section crashing bottles of liquor to get the attention away from the (2) that were shopping. This was not a black, white, or hispanic issue, this was just human survival....the (2) who were shopping for food past me; nothing out of the ordinary in their carts from what I saw; the reason I even noticed them is because the carts were just filled with stuff...sugar, milk, bread, meats, not lobster, steaks, brisket, none of that. The only luxury item I did see was neopolitan ice cream & sugar cone cups. (kids treat) Both carts were full to the rim and they took off running with the carts of food; while everyone in the store was on the liquor side tending to those fools crashing liquor bottles to the floor....WHAT the fuck are we all a step away from being criminals, just to survive. I never thought I'd see the day I'd be living check to check with $93.02 in the bank until Friday and decipher weather I'm going to get gas and do laundry or pay a bill, I got gas for the week and it came to $67.28. What's really going on? I felt so sad, these people were stealing just to feed their family, on any other given day if they had it they'd probably buy the groceries! when I heard the police sirens, I prayed everyone got away safely...I couldn't believe I was feeling that way.

we live in interesting times

welcome My Love to the american reality...

many many years ago (1965)

a teacher was expounding on

'taxation without representation'

and i left home for good.

it was plain to me that the goverment

in this country was doing just that to it's people.

i also realized that it's people were blind to

that particular fact. some people thought

by living within the status quo.

i learned that no-one is safe

from a country that earns money

killin it's young and then cares nothing

for the ones whom get mangled on their behalf.

no matter whut your education may be,

if you haven't got THE BUCKS you're a havenot

and you shall become like those before you.

we had to learn to live off the FAT OF THE LAND

because no matter how hard you tryed to live right

on the un-ballenced beam, you were set to fail in

their game. we made a game for ourselves...

now those of you whom have worked hard all your life

and done the right thing will suffer the ultimate insult

of havin to live like a crimminal.

or even loosin whut you have earned because

the HAVES don't give a fuk about you eihther...

sorry,

but amerika has been killin americans for years

and there are those of us who decided to stay out of that mix, and were poo-pooed at for our choice.

now only GOD can save you from whut men will do.
