The Importance of World Deployed Middle Class
IRAQ-MEXICO and the SOON TO BE Middle-Class-less USA
Our nation has enjoyed unprecedented economic growth due to our economic, political and social structure. From 1940 to 1990 (50 years) that formula has been the political acknowledgement, financial strength, engagement, support and growth of a population that was middle-class centric. Extremist have been few because the majority of the population is not sitting in squalor nor oppressed. Extremist who have emerged have been rejected and quickly dispatched.
Since 1990 the sell out of the Middle Class, the wholesale auctioning of our assets, the decimation of key industries, and the erasure of our sovereignty is nearly complete. The dire consequences of this short-term nirvana has not been fully considered by all. Those in the power elite who suckle at the corporate and government teat only know the short-term feel good experience of such treasure looting.
The solution for amany of our maladies is rooted in a re-embracement of stability, grounding necessity and an engaged and watchfulness vibrant and loyal middle class. If those in power continue to ignore the will of the middle class they will beocme evermore unengaged and "at-risk" members of the society. An potential army of the disenfranchised.
IRAQ
The middle east already demonstrated what a large population of the disenfranchised people yield. Those that never see the wealth of national assets used for the benefit of its people will NEVER stand up to embrace a vision that has NEVER existed. Void of a middle class many Middle east countries cannot embrace individual liberty, responsibility and empowerment as the concept is as foriegn and intangible as those traveling though Willy Wonkas Chocolate Factory with the founder narrating concepts that seem too distant, too utopian, and too wierd. Purple Thumbs may just as well be the magical jelly bean that neer dissolves to a populace that has only experiences despot rulers, triabl war lords and subjegation. These despots choke on their nations wealth and contnually conjur up bizarre uses for this precious and finite capital. Unfortnuately, these same power brokers have done a fair job of allowing the masses to believe the evil USA has taken their loot. I wish it were possible to educate the Middle East about our trade deficit and let them see who as what.Hence, the lion-share of the population is neither inclined nor can be courted into standing up for an American driven vision of their future (our PR machine is impotent to correct this).
The populace has no ownership in a vision and has no faith in the tribal chiefs to look beyond their narrow and longstanding historical feudalism. These POTENTIAL stakeholders will be unmoved to rise up and create what has NEVER existed. Sadly, an internal blood letting (civil war) will be necessary so that those who are unable or unwilling to standup for a Willy Wonka vision the be coerced to stand up for self-preservation and hence compromise will be born out of terror, fear and ultimately pragmatic self-interest.
We (America) are in the way.
All is not lost; we have made a major contribution and an appropriate one to be sure. We ousted Suddam. Since we propped him up, it was only fair for us to provide this opportunity for the Iraqi's. If Iraq is to become more than 3 to 8 tribal sub-sets of a nation, it will fall on the people to shed their heritage, historical handicap of subjugation and create for themselves what nation they are willing to create for their children
.
It would be prudent for them to consider the history of what an empowered middle class can accomplish, but it will be what it will be.
MEXICO
Mexico; another nation grounded in the haves and have nots...with no middle class to speak of. Apparently the only viable option available to the stake-less is to come to America. The PRI has no interest in a vision of a thriving populace who share this nations massive natural resources. They advocate for the self-serving and self-incarceration of the status quo. The leadership is relieved to have an export strategy for those that cannot find viable lives of commerce in Mexico. The added bonus is that due to the cultural strength of Mexican citizens who do travel to America send money back home (in the billions) to their family members.That works great for Mexico today, and for the illegals who migrae here, but what happens when the weight of social costs, eductaional dumb-down and splintered culturaism (acclimating is no longer in STYLE) brings havoc to the USA. What happens when the current siege of the middle class in America turn the USA into Mexico...do they go to Canada?
Our collective enemy is the world-wide elite whose arrogance and disproportionate access to government decision makers is unprecendented. The level of their narcissism would make JP Morgan blush and the time is ripe for a Teddy Roosevelt to engage and rescue America from the bloat hogs at the Potomac trough.
