What Happens After The American Election?
America has work to do
I could talk about the American election, but it is pretty irrelevant. It doesn’t matter who wins the United States election as the country still has immense problems. I’ve watched the United States from Canada for the past 50 years, and nothing has changed. The rich elite class in America continues to hold an iron grip over the country. As a result of this, the average American keeps getting poorer.
It really doesn’t matter who you vote for. Both parties are the same. They have always been the same, and they will stay the same no matter who is in power. It is about the money. It has nothing to do with you as an average citizen. You are simply a peon worker drone. Your job is to enrich that upper class. It is that the same upper class that allowed the lower class on the Titanic to drown during that fateful sinking. It is the same thing that is going on today. People are sinking, thanks to the upper class.
Politicians Matter, Not People
It is not the people that matter. It is that political power. You cannot keep your hold on that power unless you have an enemy. Politicians love to keep people at loggerheads with each other, or they lose their grip on power. While there are quite a few politicians who want to do good, many are only in it for themselves. They are also kept in power by the corporations and banks that donate money to whatever candidate they think will do the best for business.
It’s business and the insatiable need for profit that is more important than the average person's lives. You are meaningless next to a dollar sign. That the dollar sign has more weight than your life, you can think of the country as a giant corporation, except this corporation is quite corrupt. Once someone is in the political system for long enough, they are no longer able to see the average person's plight. All they see in front of them is the dollar signs and the votes that keep coming in, which keep them in their position of power.
I have voted for all the major parties in Canada at one time or another. No matter what my vote is, my life really does not change all that much. This is because politics is very much a game. It is not about me and my life. It is about the government and their power over me as a citizen. The same can be said of the United States, only there it is much worse.
I listen to politicians time and time again to promise me something and never deliver. While some of the time I might see you some results, it’s usually not that significant. Sometimes the crap smells a little bit better, but at the end of the day, it’s still crap. Whenever you get a politician that wants to do good, they get trapped within the system and can’t do what they want to make lives better for people.
In some places around the world, we are slowly seeing politicians start to put people first. This must continue in this new century, or we will only go backwards and into chaos. It must be a world where everyone is included, and then we can move forward.
Poverty
There have been many different politicians in America since I was young. I have not seen any decrease in poverty in America. In fact, I’ve seen poverty skyrocket in many places. Look at America's inner cities, and you might understand why the black population in America is so pissed.
Look at the conditions that these individuals live under. If I were to compare any American city with one in Canada, I would pick the one in Canada. American inner cities look like absolute war zones. Blacks in America have been taken off of the plantations and placed in the inner cities. They are still on that plantation. It is only changed slightly. They have gone from being actual slaves to people to being poverty slaves. They are kept on the American plantation in the ghettos and other areas in America. Look at the pictures of these places, and you will see what life is like in this so-called prosperous nation.
Divided States
America is a divided nation because it is collapsing. You cannot continue on its current path and survive. There must be jobs and opportunities for everyone. This is the only path forward. America's inner cities must be cleaned up, and everyone has to have a chance to succeed. This requires that education is made paramount to go to school and get the training they need to move forward in this new century. Here we are in the year 2020, and people are still living in conditions that remind you of the 1800s.
Want to go to San Francisco? Download an interactive poo map, so you know where to step when you arrive in this wonderful city. San Francisco is an example of a city that is quite rich, but at the same time, it is immensely poor. Politicians need poverty and despair to win elections. Vote for us, and we make your lives “better.” They divide you based upon religion, race, job, income, sexual preferences, and so on. The United States is divided because of politicians. The world is divided because of politicians. The average citizen wants to live out their lives in peace.
The Average Person is the Same
The average person in America is the same. Everybody wants a nice home, a job that pays enough money, a clean environment, good relationships, and the ability to retire and live out the rest of their life in peace. Everyone wants the same thing, but it cannot obtain it because of how the system works. It is a system that is faltering and enriching a very few people's lives while everyone else gets poor. The rich keep getting richer, and the poor keep getting poorer is very much still in play today.
I need more money today to do what I used to do in the past with less. This includes owning a home, driving a car, putting food on the table, buying clothes, entertainment, and so on. It requires more and more money to do the basics in life. This is why the quality of life is shrinking for many people. It is also why you see left extremism and right extremism. The system we live under quite frankly is “borked.”
America for Everyone
For America to succeed in the new century, it needs to include everyone. A rich elite class cannot continue to subjugate and control people. America should not have inner cities where people live in their own shit. This is not the path forward for the future. All citizens deserve a chance to succeed. They cannot succeed in how America is currently run. The election is quite meaningless. It is time for all Americans to join it together in a common goal. The common goal is for everyone to have a decent life. There must be opportunity and prosperity for everyone.
It is time for politicians, no matter their political affiliation, to put people first. This is the path forward. Politicians today have a unique opportunity to move into a technological society to put people first and not their individual power or monetary gain.
Future
Let’s drop the current isms entirely. Let’s forget capitalism, socialism, communism, and go with ‘peopleism’. That would be a system where everyone is included. That would help make this planet a happy place because all of the other isms we have adopted so far have left us with a pile of shit. It keeps getting shittier no matter what ism we adopt. Make people great again.
Until we fundamentally change the way that we live, the future does not look all that bright. If politicians and others in places of power continue along their current path, then this planet is pretty much fucked. I don’t want to sugarcoat it because that is what I see. It is time for all of us to come together as citizens of this world. We need to put our differences aside and look at the bigger picture. That picture is this globe. It should not be about me, and it should not be about you. It should be about everyone and our place in this universe.
Only then will there be the United States of America and a united world.
