Remember, 1% now own 80% of global wealth. 1% of U.S. own 43% of U.S. assets (up from 18% in 1980). The media has become a circus sideshow designed primarily to distract and socially engineer passive submission to authority structures. An increasingly disconnected pyramid top Robber Baron class that uses a brought and paid for congressional and national political party system that wages imperial wars with much of the world serving as de facto slave labor circuits and cheap resource supply sources for Rome’s Imperial Center.

]]> Comment on “Five Minutes of Heaven” – justice and reconciliation. . .what do these mean to to us? by pbriggsiam http://greeneggsandham.org/wordpress/?p=557&cpage=1#comment-460 pbriggsiam Mon, 17 May 2010 18:25:51 +0000 http://greeneggsandham.org/wordpress/?p=557#comment-460 Maddie here. It was quite a phenomenal movie - only an hour and a half, but every minute poignant. Nesbitt was brilliant as this tormented victim, and I mean victim in every sense. He was a boy of 12 when he watched numbingly as the masked shooter simply strode up to his living room window while he held his soccer ball. The legacy was not just the loss of his older brother, but the torment of his mother's blame, his father's subsequent death, another brother's fatal overdose and his mother's illness and death. So many more victims than one. See this movie, it will bring home the honesty of our human-ness with a painful beauty. Maddie here.

I can not say I would normally give a moment's thought to anything connected to John Denver but I thank you for the post, it was a lovely bit of nostalgia. As usual, you drew my attention to something I would not have appreciated without your thoughtful reflection. Thank you Randy Sparks. Wow, thanks for the flashback.
