A report last year from the National Poverty Center estimated "that the number of households living on $2 or less in income per person per day in a given month increased from about 636,000 in 1996 to about 1.46 million households in early 2011, a percentage growth of 130 percent."
"The 1,168,354 homeless students enrolled by U.S. preschools and K-12 schools in the 2011-2012 school year is the highest number on record, and a 10 percent increase over the previous school year. The number of homeless children in public schools has increased 72 percent since the beginning of the recession."
"Sales of homes priced at more than $1 million jumped an average 37 percent in 2013’s first half from a year earlier to the highest level since 2007, according to DataQuick."

Please stand by -- or just keep watching TV -- while the process is completed. We in The One Percent appreciate your cooperation. Your best interests are at the heart of everything we are doing to expedite The New Order.
Do not resist. You are being watched 24 hours a day. We know who you are, where you're going and where you've been. We know what you read, what you write, who you know, who you love. Our imaging apparatus enables us to assess your emotions and your intentions in real time.
DO NOT RESIST. If you have thoughts of disrupting The Evolution, you may disappear into secret detention, never to be heard from again. Or you may be found dead of "an accidental overdose."
Or our security regime will "discover" child pornography, or downloads of jihadist material, on your computer. Suitcases filled with drugs and money may be "uncovered" in your closet, or a cache of high-powered weapons may "appear" in the trunk of your car. "Psychiatric records" will reflect a dangerously sociopathic and delusional personality. Your cellphone records will "reveal" a sordid web of fraud, perversion and traitorious conspiracy. A devastated teenage girl will report that you beat and raped her. We will "gather" the incontrovertible evidence against you.
The media will be alerted. You will be completely discredited. You will be universally feared and despised. Remember the song, "Suicide is Painless"? Perhaps it was written for you.
DO NOT RESIST. If you should run into the street and call out to your fellow beings that something must be done, "we can't let this happen," you will be shot. You, and everyone else, are continually in our sights, for the safety of all concerned.
This great nation was founded as a haven for the common man. As a member of The 99 Percent, you are a common man. That is an honorable role, which you will be required to play with the subdued modesty of a lamb.
This glorious new Nation of Sheep will enjoy A Wonderful Life, in which you will feel lovingly protected from the countless threats to The Homeland that are festering under every bed on The Planet.
We in the One Percent are mere facilitators, humbly overseeing this process, which is essential to our nation's continued global dominance.
Remember Star Trek: "Resistance is futile."
Take Walt Whitman's advice to heart: "If you want me again, look for me under your boot soles."Just another brick in The Wall: All good things must come to a beginning. |

Neither will the Evolution. |
