CHANGE

May 8, 2012

Jeff’s been thinking (Oh, Oh here we go again) he has also been listening to a lot of sixties and early seventies music mostly protest songs about the Viet Nam War. He has come to the conclusion that the world has forgotten how much power the young people have, they’ve forgotten that five hundred thousand people scared the hell out of the US government by being able to get together listen to music about politics and war and agree on everything and not try to kill each other. The closest thing to that now a days is occupy Wall Street but that’s just one small group making a point that no one seems to really want too something about. After Nixon got elected and he looked around and saw all the protests he knew even if he ended the war tomorrow those kids would still be looking for change, so he and his band of crooks sat down and came up with Earth day and save the planet. They knew all the hippies were into the natural thing and he saw an excellent opportunity to corrupt the Flower Power Nation and give them something they could support and would keep them occupied until they could be brought into the fold of corporate America. This actually happened as the most serious of the so called radicals didn’t go out and join the peace core of work for the American Civil Liberties Union, instead they went to work so they could go out and purchase that new car or home raise their kids and send them to Harvard so they could learn how to screw the rest of us. Jeff realizes he doesn’t live in the US anymore and really doesn’t have much credibility with those that are still there, but he does remember and it’s his opinion that youth still scares the hell out of politicians and business execs. If they could all get together like they did way back when and not have race or politics or money be involved they really make thing s change. But like their parents they’re too complacent and believe no matter what they do nothing will change. In America as well as the rest of the world change comes about when one person has an idea and believes in it, doesn’t let others change his mind. If he does this and he get one other person to like it then they each go and get someone to believe in it, now you have four and if each of those get one more, well you can see before long it will turn into a movement. So the problem isn’t getting support it’ having the balls to believe in something and express that belief to others and keep expressing no matter how many people seem to be against you and maybe just maybe change can really happen and you can make this a better place and restore faith in Government. I realize it’s sounds impossible but it has happened all threw history so keep the faith and keep on trying Ciao.
