A collective nationwide act of financial civil disobedience-pay no credit card bills.
Mandatory closures of all corporate fast-food chains.
No health insurance for those who do not complete holistic nutrition education programs.
Outlaw product advertisements which train human cattle to consume and purchase.
Outlaw Billboards-tear them all down.
Simple deprogramming steps to turning a nation of self-destructive idiots programmed by corporations, institutions, and their advertising armies, into humans being.
You go, Reverend Billy....The world has embraced Babylon.
We are all victims of the system unfortunately. It is impossible to escape.
Now.. before relying on so-called 'holistic' remedies. Think again. It is just another market for a certain demographic, chock full of scam artists. Not unlike southern 'spiritual healers'. Bullshit. They often peddle crap products or services such as the scam known as 'homeopathy' and other herbal or natural bunk. Why do they come and go so frequently? Because they are fly by night operations.
Another fault is that people are far too lazy to read the fine print. Those that do are often stricken with attention deficit disorder that they can't absorb anything more complex than sesame street language.
The ADD problems are all resulting from being spammed their entire lives by 10 minute segments followed by 30 second commercial blips for another 10 minutes.. back and forth back and forth. Video sites such as this certainly don't help in this regards that much... but at least you have some control over what you see, and can simply block or skip the ads.
I do agree that mass consumerism of a lot of crap made in China is at the heart of the problem.. but China isn't the problem. It is the corporations, as you mentioned, based in the US mostly.. which drive this market. Decades ago products would last a VERY LONG time. Now you are lucky to get a year or two out of the typical low cost imported home appliance. Ultimately that cheap product you keep buying over and over every few years, ends up costing far more in the long run. Corporations like that. It drives the consumerist system.
We are driven by corporate consumerism, and the government is driven by corporations. We feed the corporations cash. The corporations feed the cash to government officials, and as a result control the system.
But.. ultimately who is at fault? We are.. for being stupid enough to follow along like sheep.
Enjoy my positive spin on our existence
