Poverty gives politicians power

Posted August 04, 2009 11:00 pm

Do people ever wonder why the richest most power nation in the world has a poverty level?

This nation can end hunger in a heartbeat, yet does not.

So the question is why are so many people living in poverty. The answer is power. Because the government can then dangle a carrot in your face and make you beg for it.

Certain groups want you divided and talking about silly little issues that really do not mean anything. They want you divided so that they can take the power for themselves and make you pay for it. They are keeping you distracted while they take and take from you. Later on you wake up and see that they have sold you out for their benefit. Like a slave.

Enjoy your freedoms while they last. Who knows when liberty was sold for a dollar.
