The U.S. is a Banana Republic and Nothing Short of a Full Scale Revolution Can or Will Ever Change It.

Banana Republic : Banana republic or banana state is a pejorative political science term for politically unstable countries in Latin America whose economies are largely dependent on exporting a limited-resource product, e.g. bananas. It typically has stratified social classes, including a large, impoverished working class and a ruling plutocracy of business, political, and military elites.[1] This politico-economic oligarchy controls the primary-sector productions to exploit the country's economy.[2]

As of now, there can be no doubt or honest argument against the plain reality that the United States is a full on Banana Republic. In fact - the entire western paradigm is now based on nothing but trickery, obfuscation, dishonesty, cowardice, personal greed, and general apathy.

Many of us are starting to plainly see this in our political and economic systems, but this pejorative term should now be expanded to include the educational, spiritual, scientific and entertainment oligarchies as well. - trickery, obfuscation, dishonesty, cowardice, personal greed, and general apathy abounds within all of it.

This once great nation has been slowly and methodically lulled into a very sick general complacency -likening to a sort of hypnosis - where the very process of critical and rational thought has been intentionally drummed out of most of us at an early age primarily via our education, entertainment and spiritual systems. Worse still - we've been trained to pounce on and attack anyone or any idea that doesn't fit the general mold of these controlling institutions.

That's not to say that everything we've absorbed through these systems is abjectly wrong, but we have been programmed to -at least initially- react in a knee jerk fashion to thoughts and ideas that reach outside of our own general understandings.

We, as Americans at least, had the benefit of being warned by the founders themselves from the beginning of this republic. They made it very plain what would happen in the future if we surrendered our divine abilities of reason and critical thinking. Reading the thoughts of those men - as far from perfect as they may have been - immediately reminds us how far most of our general abilities to clearly think have literally DE-volved from the critical and rational thought processes prevalent in our early past...

And the current political, military, economic, scientific, entertainment and spiritual oligarchies rely on our being 'dumbed down'.


They can continue to operate only as long as the majority of it's 'subjects' are incapable of critical and rational thought. Only as long as we tolerate it's madness. Only as long as we do nothing effectual about it. Only as long as we refuse to take direct and meaningful action to change it.

So - as in times that came before -in order for anything to improve or be improved - there must occur a revolution in thinking first - a breaking of the bonds which once again has found a way to bind us - a revolution in critical thought - a revolution of effective and meaningful action.

Take this to mean what you will, but make no mistake - nothing short of a full scale revolution is necessary at this late stage.
