Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn?


By Robert Melaccio, sr(25,039) Robert Melaccio, sr



I was sitting here contemplating what to write to next and said to myself and for people everywhere, that is average, common folk all over this globe, have you ever wondered if they really give a damn?  Lets start by  asking if our  leaders, those in positions of power and authority, be it business, government and church really give a damn? I venture to say if one thinks hard and honestly one could only come up with what we already know.
 
Now in talking to another older man yesterday he stated what happens in the world is the product of failed human beings. The systems of this world are created and operate for the interests of those people no matter what institution you want to discuss. The same types are in power and they foster, generate, create the sub systems, agencies, organizations that are fed by them and their deeds or what they have failed to do. One example. It is not about stopping drugs it is about the systems drugs support. They keep people employed. Legalize drugs and what a mess. Perhaps a bad analogy but just think of what is involved?
 
So he doesn’t vote and he doesn’t use credit cards, or for that matter anything that comes back to him and can be recorded. Why because it is his opinion it will haunt you all the way to the grave. He is fortunate to pay cash for everything and if he has to he waits for what he needs or does without. Nothing wrong, sinister or anything just weary of a corrupt world and professors.

So when we look down the list of impacts to everyday people, the farmers, working class, poor, average and struggling no matter where we truly can understand. That is if we want to the total corruptness of our systems.

So here I ask a few questions for you to ponder and think about. I could probably go on for hours but for the sake of brevity I will just ask enough to hopefully get you to think consider what I am saying.

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn how you survive, harrassed, pounded day and night with stress, bills, worries, rising fuel costs, school lunches, medical expenses, credit card debt, foreclosure, unemployment and low wage jobs? Now remember they feel for you.

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when after 26 years of service a person is called into the office, fired and then walked out the door within five minutes and they do not even allow you time to say goodbye or pick up personal items? Its called At Will employment and welcome to Florida or any state that your so called leaders foster which is in my opinion is a gross abuse of people and workers.

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when they lay off and fire multiple people then the very same persons who saved the company all this money [hey, look at what I have done for your bottom line] turn around the same day and ask for a raise and an increase in their gas allowance because they drive to work and fuel prices have gone up and even while making over $110,000 a year?

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when a vendor takes your property and shuts down your system, doesn’t provide any service and then makes a statement "he’s a nobody and doesn’t he know how big we are"? Who can you turn to, government, Moo.

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when you are forced to pay usurious fees on credit card debt, which is unsecured and they then force you mind you into bankruptcy and financial ruin?

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when your credit rating is destroyed by those same usurious fees, lost employment, low wage jobs and ever rising living costs by mandated auto, home and other required insurance and services by your elected representatives all keyed to that rating?

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn when someone is evicted from their home even if they have children, sick elderly and no where to go?

Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn because they profess they are something not demonstrated by their works, deeds and what they fail to do?

In my opinion and for the majority this is a more arrogant, self centered, all about me society hung up on this world and what it has to offer and it can be found everywhere and not just in America. Yes, many hate America but never see the plank right at home. Look you can say you are anything and frankly the obvious is all about us all. So much so that lies are considered normal and even truth. Sin, what’s that? Character, integrity, honor, truth, values, mere words that many profess and are rarely executed any longer. The bottom line is, Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn? Well if so let me give you my opinion Moo.

So how shall we know them. No not religion but simple logic, their works. What they have done and failed to do. Simply put those who approve of them are just like them and frankly when persons such as I write to these matter Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn? Just who do you think you are and don’t you know how big and important we are?

So until We the People wake up and make change for ourselves like that old man who just lives his life and could care less about it all, perhaps that is the real truth of it all? Perhaps we will never see change because frankly while people say it does not show up in what they do and certainly in what they fail to do and in my opinion  Have you ever wondered if they really give a damn?
