In Biblical times taxes were never more than 20%. Anything more risked sparking a rebellion. Rebellion sparks mind control. You must get in charge of your own future so there is no ceiling…no floor.
Mediocrity is where most people live…the disease of the dull. Well, do something about it. Mediocrity in school…dreams…family. Do more…you must because the deck is stacked against you. Cutting corners to get ahead? Moving too fast? Choose to be a ‘big leaguer’ or you are a slave clawing your way on to the subway trains.
Whatever it takes. ‘Roll over’ whatever stands in the way NOT to allow the world you touch to be ‘vanilla’. Do NOT let anything stand in your way from giving your family a good life. Do NOT allow your family to be slaves. Selfish? Big ego? No. Just humbly grateful to be blessed with ability and opportunity. Accept fate or have faith to make it what you want it to be.
The choice is obvious. Nothing is more important than influence. Influence is almost as important as the air you breathe…used as a conduit, a means to motivate. Without motivation everything comes to a grinding halt.
Motivation requires ‘a mission’. For example, your designer jeans or Nike shoes can stay ‘relatively’ cheap to purchase, by those privileged enough to still have ‘purchasing power’, because the operating costs stay low to produce the things you insatiably desire and irresistibly crave using near slave labor to produce them…and you obviously do not care. The more influence you generate the more you ‘bring home’…and the bigger the smiles on your family’s faces. And peddling influence, to date, is not against the law in America.
Motivation begets influence. Influence used to restrict society’s personal initiative and individualism and ‘the right’, the freedom to differ disappears. Freedoms are abolished and mass media propaganda controls the population with almost a one voice narrative. Discontent is quelled by medication and entertainment. Natural and synthetic medications are used to treat depression and discomfort. Entertainment is used to distract and preoccupy producing individuals who do not ask critical questions.
The government bureaucracy, media propaganda, modern technology and societal elites, acting on behalf of a single political party, create social pressures influencing a variety of false narratives into the population to censor, suffocate and suppress which distracts from what should really be considered important. The modern democratic state becomes evil, fearful and controlled by all-powerful executives and political bosses empowered by an army of managers controlling a population of slaves who do not need to be coerced because they have learned to love their servitude through their schoolteachers training generations of serfs, preventing these slaves from exposure to ‘wrong-think’ so the slaves willingly obey their bosses and army of managers. And in turn the population of slaves gladly trade ‘upheavals’ caused by ‘freedom of thought’ for the calm ‘semblance’ of safety and security.
Rebellion is dead. Long live mind control.
