Simple Obama Philosophy

July 25, 2009 

We are an organized society not for the purpose of determining the “will of the people.” We are organized so that we can be managed and used as consumers and labor. In the “western world,” this system of management by others means “pro business and pro elite class in the theory of trickle down economics that says if the rich gets more they will put poor folk to work and the money will “trickle down” to the poor and middle class. The latest problem with this theory is that in a “world economy” the powerful have been taking from the poor and middle class around the world by sending American jobs where they can get the cheapest labor. As of 2008, this has caused the Americans to no longer be able to purchase the goods that the powerful elite in Americas have manufactured around the world. The powerful saw this catastrophe coming long before they called it a “crisis.” They wanted to insure their money before Obama could get into the power of the Presidency. They were about to lose money because they have things and debt instruments that were not any long marketable or collectable. The powerful decided to use the “government of the people” to pass emergency laws that would make the American taxpayers guarantee that they get their money via “rescue or bailout funds.” With the passage of these pieces of legislation, the elected officials no longer even have the façade of representing or protecting the citizenry. This legislation moves the power and control of money to the Secretary of the Treasury and the banks. The banks can keep the government in so much debt that the government cannot effect needed changes unless the banks agree to do it. This was a major Bush Administration’s attempt to secure his friends money with taxpayer’s guarantees.  I do not think Bush realized that the whole world economy would have imitated these same banking methods and is now replicating this procedure. However, you will notice that American Express, and a lot of formerly investment banks are now applying and being granted “banking status” so they can play this new game of raping the taxpayer’s treasury.

Therefore, regardless to Obama’s skin color he is the right man for this kind of situation. Obama recognized early-on that the rubber band of taking money out of America and spending it around the world was about to break. That is why Obama constantly called for and asked us to focus on, “It is time for a change.”  Obama, with his very good community organizing skills, recognized that when people unite they can change things for themselves. That is why he also constantly emphasizes now that, “This election is not about me, it is about you.” Truer words have never been spoken. You do have to stay organized to help Obama force the powerful American folk who manage the masses and the economy to yield more to the middle class. Unless there is a ground swell of public pressure to force the elitist monied powerful folk who manage America to refinance the middle class in order to increase the purchasing power and living conditions of the middle class, Obama will not be able to effect change as he espouses. We, along with Obama, will have to convince the powerful that it is in their best interest that the middle class have money to spend or they will not get their share of the pie either. Many wealthy folk understand this. That explains why the enlightened wealthy folk, i.e. folks with advanced degrees, agreed to vote for Obama. They know that unless the plans of Obama are put in place the whole thing will collapse

How do we know this?

(1)   Obama is going to keep his internet site open after the election so that he can mobilize the masses at will. This is not just campaigning for 2112 or public relations. It is for you to help him make changes.

(2)   Code words at Obama’s Acceptance speech like, “Our victory is an opportunity for change;” and, “America, our fight for a change begins here and it won’t be easy and our climb will be steep.” 

(3)   During the campaign Obama emphasized that, “2008 is the end of an era of failed economic policy.” Obama’s was referring to the fact that it is time for the powerful to intentionally move money into the middle class to increase their purchasing power. If the middle class can have jobs, they can afford homes, and they can then buy the things that the powerful folk makes. This is how the new economy must work going forward.”

Cynics will say that, “This is only putting a Black face on American Imperialism.”  Black pride enthusiast will say that, “Our day has come.”  Neither is true because money has never recognized forms of government or ideologies. It is true that money tends to stay with the powerful because they get it through force of will and military might. However, these same folk will play musical chairs and shifts from one money center to another will occur but this phenomenon is beyond the racial divides in America and the ideology fight around the globe. THE MAIN POINT OF THIS PIECE THAT I CALL, “SIMPLE OBAMA” IS THAT YOU MUST MANAGE YOUR OWN ECONOMIC WELL BEING AS BEST YOU CAN. AS THE MONEY SHIFTS AND FLOWS, YOU HAVE TO MANAGE FOR YOURSELF WAYS TO SURVIVE. DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN THE HYPE THAT OBAMA IS ABOUT YOU OR YOUR SKIN COLOR. Peace, Dr. Cjw
