(7,018 posts)Can you imagine a fascist America bullying, pulling its weight, looting
and taking from its own people as well as from the rest of the world
whatever it wants?
The Oil People have already been doing that the past 60+ years. They
have been doing it with some degree of subtleness, of course, since open
aggression was no longer tolerated after WWII, after the examples of
Germany and Japan. But things have changed with Bush Jr. The
reason he gave for attacking Iraq was an outright lie. Later, even HE
openly admitted that our being in Iraq was for its oil.
If we conceded America to the neo-fascists now, before long even
subtle lies will be thrown to the wind, and open aggression will be the
order of the day. We cannot allow this to happen.
More and more people with anti-social criminal personalites are getting
into positions of power - both in government and in private industry.
It's unavoidable that we will become a Neo-fascist state if our nation
is ruled by these greedy and ambitious criminals. We cannot allow it
to happen.
We'll have to be on our guard and fight it whenever and wherever we
se it happening.
