Please excuse this rare moment of being serious… but every once in a while… ya just feel a need to.
Conspiracy? When hasn’t things always been a conspiracy? … never! … there’s always been, and always will be conspiracy. No doubt since the beginning of time, when did any one person or group of persons, that have been in charge or control, didn’t have an agenda. Hidden agendas, personal interests, favoritism, which all leads ultimately to conspiracy and corruption… usually motivated by greed. In today’s world any person, or group of people, that have control or even influence over others… well… the chances are very good that they are in varying degrees involved in conspiracy, greed, and corruption. Everything from seemingly innocent agendas to full blow all consuming corruption in which they premeditate defrauding the general public mostly out of money, and do so with the additional intent of being more controlling and powerful… another words… limiting your freedoms. Their idea of your freedom is to control or limit you to choices that conform to their plans and agendas. So how big is this whole conspiracy corruption thing? Well… lets start with the government. Never has there been anything so large and controlling as our government. Absolute power that corrupts absolutely. What percentage of anything that the government controls ( and they control everything in varying degrees) do you think is free from personal interests, “party” interest, favoritism, conspiracy and corruption. Personal opinion… nearly everything is a conspiracy… in varying degrees… no doubt ever increasing as they “get away” with more an more. So with government, it’s safe to say that almost everything is a conspiracy. How about businesses? Well, the average business is ruled by social morals and the free enterprise system that keeps most of them honest. But given the opportunity to be in a controlling position, and position of power, where the general public could be at their mercy, of which there is none, a monopoly of sorts, only leads to one place… greed and conspiracy. Conspiracy to leave social morals behind and “get away” with all they can, not just a socially accepted profit, but nothing less than price gouging. … of course this is under the legal banner of free enterprise and supply and demand pricing. Or if there is a natural disaster that would mean prices should be higher, supply verses demand, then why do the prices never go back to pre disaster costs? Every little excuse is used on the American public to raise prices to make unwarranted profits… and they public at large believes their excuses… of course at best, we have no choice or control even if we didn’t by all the lies they tell. Biggest offender… big oil companies. The price fuel alone is bringing the economy to it’s knees. Of all the hundreds of reasons why fuel prices go up so that they can maintain profitability… PLEASE… if this was true and they were raising prices to merely stay profitable… why are oil company exec’s retiring with not millions, but billions of dollars, of our hard earned money, that they get for the oil companies being overly profitable. How do they do it… back to big government politics… the politicians allow them to do it and both sides prosper at the publics expense. If it was something reasonable okay… but their greed grows with their control and power. Religious cults and so called spiritual leaders use a form of fear and / or hope of prosperity to control how you feel and think… and naturally maintain control and power over people to get their support… and more importantly their money. Believe in “my god” and I will give you inner peace… try to pull away and you shall fall out of favor, and bad things will happen to you… that’s the fear part. Give me more money (your money) so I might spread the good word… support our cause and there will be prosperity… prosperity for them, not you. But they do give those that are not strong minded or strong willed something to believe in… a false sense of belief in themselves… inner peace… a sense of belonging… a sense that they are promised something better than what this world has to offer… just give them your freedom in part or whole, give them your money, and you can feel good about yourself, for you will get your reward if not here but after death. Radical religious groups get their followers to give up everything in the name of their religion… even their lives, even so that they might kill others that do not follow their true religion. These are just a some of the biggest offenders… yes, offenders… because they are guilty of stealing your money under false pretenses. Others might include some charities, the health care and insurance system, and the legal system… just to mention a few. But you can decide about that.
Conspiracy, agenda, corruption, greed, control & power over people… it’s everywhere… permeating every part of your lives. Sometimes people give into it by choice, sometimes it’s forced upon us by those in authority… mainly big government and powerful companies.
So if you hear the phrase… “Everything is a conspiracy” … in many senses… it’s absolutely true. They either hide it well, divert your attention to something else, or explain it away with propaganda that they know you’ll believe and accept what they say… because you either aren’t smart enough to see the truth, don’t want to mentally know how bad it is, so you won’t accept the truth, or just want feel good about their self and their lives and believe whatever they are told… just so they could feel good about everything… hence the phrase “Rose colored glasses”.
Well… this is all just something to think about.. or not. True or false… well… that’s up to you to decide. If you think it’s all false, and everything is just perfect… and you want to feel really good about yourself… well… send me your money for complete absolution and the promise of a better life after this one. (just kidding about the money part). They’re all “selling” conspiracy, hidden agendas, corruption, greed, control & power over people… some good news…some of it is by your choice… so as the saying goes… “Buyer beware”. Unfortunately… some is forced upon all of us… government and big business. It is what it is… so just do the best you can, with what they allow you to keep. Stay warm and eat hearty… if you still can.
So why did I write this. Certainly not to make you feel bad… just something to open you to the thought process of what is really happening… “Rose colored glasses” make for a bit of mental and emotional relief from the real world… and we all need that from time to time, but it may proved to be beneficial to take one’s head out of the sand and see what’s really happening.
But, as always, that’s you choice… your freedom to think as you will. I have no hidden agenda but encourage you to think for yourself… find strength in yourself… find inner peace within yourself. It’s all up to you.
Those that don’t take your money… or don’t ask for your money… just may have the most honestly and purity of thoughts. Conversely… those that have the power to take your money… and those that lack the power to take it, so they ask for it, under the pretense of your well being, so you can feel good about yourself… well… maybe not all, but certain most… have an agenda… and it’s all about power, control, and greed for your money. Personally… I feel better about myself by not giving up my money or support to their greed, if I don’t have to… and I can feel good about myself… very good indeed! I’d rather try to do good by others around me, support charities where I know the money is going, and help others in whatever way without expecting anything in return. The easiest thing of all… bring a smile or moment of delight to someone’s face… give them a happy feeling…little priceless moments. Smiles and laughs … I collect them all and consider them all payment in full.
Hoping yall have a wonderful day… stay warm… and eat hearty.
