The Problem Isn’t

Right vs. Left,

It is

Up vs. Down

We have been conditioned to believe that the two political

parties are irredeemable in each other's eyes.

If you think about the people in your family or neighborhood,

have they gotten out of control with anger and fear? Or do most of them want

what most normal people want = a good home, family and a safe community?


Ponder your response if you are told it is not Right vs. Left.

Confusion? Disbelief? Do you feel that it is ridiculous to feel any other way other

than Right Vs. Left? Maybe the thought is not ridiculous at all.

Maybe it is the truth.


The first question on the search for the truth might sound obvious. It is.

“Who benefits from the turmoil between the political parties?”

 Not the regular party members.

Only a few in society do benefit, and it probably is not you or

the people you know.


One of the oldest sayings is ‘follow the money.’ Let’s use it.

Looking back in history, we were warned that people in power would do

almost anything for money and more power. P

resident Eisenhower spoke of the

military-industrial complex that would twist the legislature and presidents’

perception of what was important. Money would flow in their direction when

there was war or at least an arming of the country to prepare for war.

The normal functions of government would be twisted to fund all sorts of

projects that required money. Not small amounts of money, but a huge number

of dollars sent to their firms to ‘prepare for war’ or even fight an active war.

if only one could be started.


In fact, funding for war is so financially productive, new wars were

invented to divert the people’s tax money in even greater quantities.

Hence “The War on Poverty,’ the “The War on Drugs’ and “The War on Crime.”


Consider that the military-industrial complex and their cohorts spread

their influence to other segments of society to bring them into the financial and

power structure they became adept at creating. The complex added politicians

and the wealthy and the powerful people who might indirectly benefit from the

massive flow of dollars.


The structure’s goal was not a Right vs. Left conflict, but an ‘us’ who are

above the ‘them’ in society’s pecking order. The wealthy and connected would

divert attention to their wealth and power grab with an ingenious and complex

program to keep the great majority of citizens in the dark. In other words, the

citizens would be ‘played’ and scammed out of their own wealth and power

which would be sent up to the self-selected ‘elite’ in society.

UP vs DOWN

You have several segments of the self-described elite working in concert

to pull off this wealth transfer program.


The media's news and events must divert the generals

population’s attention away from what is going on. One can divert a lot of

attention if one uses conflict to influence perception.


If the Republicans are told

about all the horrible behavior of the Democrats and it is hyped, they will turn to

their politicians to do something, anything. The reverse is also true.


Democrats will ask

their politicians to attend to the atrocities of the Republicans.

All of the structured media organizations who thrive on power, influence,

and have a need for self-importance, fuel the information and dis-information

necessary to fuel conflict.

In this way they gain approval and prestige from the elites.


No longer Left vs Right,

the struggle has become the 'Up' in power and wealth vs the 'DOWN' in power and wealth.
