erm, no WE cannot control anything? With what, peaceful protests? Get over it.
WE as people have no moral power. Whilst WE are subjected to the proposal that we elect therefore we control, this is simply not true. Many times a large number of people have protest peacefully, yet organisations and corporations have deteriorated the peaceful protest into branded labels.
If the government decides on something you dont agree with, what will you do? If they give you an excuse to make a moral judgement of ''DEFENCE'' you will select that path, just like the whole terrorism sham. I have no power, YOU have no power, WE have no power. The only terrorists are those that are worth more money than countries and even continents combined.
You can extend this to AID in Africa for example, money does not go to these people in Africa, the money goes into buying things like water mechanics, setting up businesses, food...but who owns the businesses from which you buy these AID products???? The large corperations, and why? Because they can price them as they wish and its a multi-billion $,£,E industry.
You cannot tell me seriously that a democracy exists whereby the people obtain any sort of moral or influential power, I mean seriously?
Why do you think we are still burning things to generate power and not using new technologies? Can you imagine if you invented an energy source that rivals Oil and is completely sustainable? Eliminate a multi-billion dollar industry? You would be forced to sell up or be killed, and you would have no power, just like the poor man of today.
We went to war with Iraq for no moral reason, we went to war with Afghanistan for no moral reason, a 3rd tower after the 9/11 attacks was destroyed/demolished for no moral reason, we allow mass killings, poverty, suffering, disease, hunger and mass waste to continue....for no moral reason.
Tell me its not all about money and those who control everything around us. The media, the governments, the education, the way we live, what we eat, think and believe.
Tesco is worth more than Greece, tell me now that its worth all of the suffering, and I will believe you that we have this so called power.
