“films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.”
? George Orwell, 1984
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Lottery ticket anyone?
Why do you think despots like Maduro keep booze prices low?
How dare he attack beer! Our freedoms were conceived in pubs.
Reblogged this on Centinel2012 and commented:
It’s really scary how accurate he was except for the timing, add 40 years to 1984 and he would be right on!
President Ronald Reagan won a second term in 1984.
However Reagan is the president that allowed the Banksters and Corporate Raiders to strip the wealth out of US corporations thereby bankrupting our home corporations and helping set up the current situation of transnational corporations that want to get rid of US sovereignty. This paved the way for the World Trade Organization that DADDY Bush was behind and Clinton got ratified.
Statistics showed a steady increase of foreign ownership of U.S. assets that accelerated after 1985.

This is a sampling of the industries with over 50% foreign ownership, according to Source Watch.

Also Dan Amstutz was Reagan’s and he wrote the draft of the WTO Agreement on Agriculture and the Freedom To Fail Farm Bill that again were implemented under Clinton. Obama and Richard Burr (R) North Carolina slammed the final nail into the coffin containing US independent farmers with the Food Safety Modernization Act.
I think Eisenhower was the last president of the USA that truly was FOR this country. The others have all been puppets slowly implementing the Fabian/Socialist/Progressive goal of dismantling this once great nation.

Huxley (Brave New World) and Orwell were both members of the Fabian Society. This is the letter from Huxley to Orwell upon reading the copy of 1984 that Orwell sent him.
Government controlled daycare and Ritalin anyone?

It’s Superbowl week, and the Oscar nominations are out; perfect timing for all of those.
