IT'S TRUE, WE LIVE IN THE BEST OF TIMES AND THE WORST OF TIMES SIMULTANEOUSLY. AT BEST, IT'S EXCITING THAT WE LIVE IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA THAT BRINGS US IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND NEWS WE CAN USE TO ARM OURSELVES TO BE PREPARED AND INFORMED. WE CAN HEAR ABOUT CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY LEADING TO NEW DISCOVERIES WE CAN HEAR ABOUT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.

WE LIVE IN A GREAT TIME SPAN TO WITNESS  MANY RARELY OCCURRING CELESTIAL EVENTS, SOME OF WHICH HAVE PASSED RECENTLY. WE HAVE ACCESS TO STATE OF THE ART

TEXTILES THAT CAN BETTER KEEP US WARM,COOL,DRY AND PROTECTED IF WE WISH. 

AS FOR MUSIC, WE ARE WITNESSING THE BEST MUSIC EVER PRODUCED TURNING INTO A DYING ART, AND THE REPLACEMENT IS LESS THAN IMAGINATIVE AND HAS NO CHANCE OF COMPARING TO THE LIKES OF DAVID BOWIE

GLEN FREY, AND THE MANY MUSICIANS THAT HAVE PASSED INTO THE GREAT BEYOND RECENTLY. SADLY, THAT LIST WILL CONTINUE TO GROW, NEVER TO BE REPLACED WITH AN EQUAL QUALITY OF ORIGINAL MUSIC.

MANY OF US WILL CLING TO THEIR MUSIC AND MEMORIES

UNTIL WE TO PASS.I'M  NOT IMPRESSED MUCH BY ANY OF THE NEW MUSIC BEING CHURNED OUT WITH LITTLE AND NO IMAGINATION. IF NOT FOR SOME RADIO STATIONS PLAYING RETRO MUSIC, I PROBABLY WOULDN'T TUNE IN AT ALL.

SURE THESE ARE THE BEST OF TIMES

THE LIST COULD GO ON TO INCLUDE MANY REASONS WHY

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE WORST OF TIMES YOU ASK?

YOUTH THAT CANNOT PUT THEIR MOBILE PHONES DOWN FOR A MINUTE AND INTERACT WITH THE PEOPLE AND THE WORLD AROUND THEM.

GOVERNMENTS RUN BY PUPPETS THAT ARE BOUGHT BY BIG BUSINESS TO EXTRACT MONEY FROM US UNFAIRLY FOR OFTEN UNSAFE AND UNHEALTHY PRODUCTS WITH THE ONLY CARE BEING THAT THEY MAKE HUGE PROFITS ON OUR BACKS. SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE, GOVERNMENTS STOPPED CARING FOR THE WELL BEING OF IT'S CITIZENS

AND PREFER RATHER TO SPEED UP OUR DEMISE WITH CHEMICALS INTRODUCED INTO OUR ATMOSPHERE, OUR FOOD CHAIN, AND OUR WATER SUPPLIES.

BIG BUSINESS AND POLITICIANS DECIDED TO GET TOGETHER

AND ATTEMPT TO TAKE TOTAL CONTROL OUR LIVES TO BETTER SUIT THEIR OWN AGENDAS. JUST A LITTLE AT A TIME SO THAT WE DON'T NOTICE UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE TO FIGHT BACK. EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE WILL BE CONTROLLED UNDER THIS NEW REGIME. WHY? BECAUSE THIS TRANSLATES INTO MORE MONEY TO SPREAD AROUND TO THE ELITES. 

 THE OLD SYSTEM DOESN'T GENERATE ENOUGH MONEY TO SATISFY THE INSATIABLE GREED OF THE ELITE, SO THEY ARE BUSY CREATING A NEW ONE.

THE GOVERNMENTS WANT DESPERATELY TO CREATE A SOCIAL STATE, MODELED AFTER LENIN'S COMMUNIST TEACHINGS AND LATER SIMPLIFIED BY SAUL ALINSKY'S EIGHT LEVELS OF CONTROL. 

CONTROL HEALTHCARE AND YOU GAIN MORE CONTROL OF THE POPULACE.

 INCREASE POVERTY EVERY CHANCE YOU GET TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL SO AS TO CREATE MORE CONTROL. IMPOVERISHED PEOPLE ARE EASIER TO CONTROL.

INCREASE DEBT TO AN UNSUSTAINABLE LEVEL TO JUSTIFY RAISING TAXES HIGHER, WHICH IN TURN, CREATES MORE POVERTY. 

GUN CONTROL. REMOVE THE ABILITY OF PEOPLE TO PROTECT AND DEFEND THEMSELVES FROM GOVERNMENT

CREATING A POLICE STATE.

WELFARE. TAKE CONTROL OF EVERY ASPECT OF PEOPLES LIVES. FOOD,HOUSING, AND INCOME.

EDUCATION. TAKE CONTROL OF WHAT PEOPLE READ AND LISTEN TO AND LEARN IN SCHOOL.

RELIGION. REMOVE BELIEF IN GOD AND SCHOOLS AND GOVERNMENTS.

CLASS WARFARE. DIVIDE PEOPLE INTO RICH OR POOR CATEGORIES WITH NO IN BETWEEN, CASING MORE DISCONTENT OF THE POPULACE AND MAKING IT EASIER TO APPLY MORE TAXES ON THE RICH TO SUPPORT THE POOR.

THESE ARE THINGS YOU SHOULD CONCERN YOURSELVES WITH AND FIGHT THESE GOVERNMENT MANDATES ANY CHANCE YOU GET. 

CORRUPTION IN GOVERNMENTS, BIG BANKS AND BIG BUSINESS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND QUELLED. PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF BEING RIPPED OFF, LIED TO AND USED.

BIG PHARMA IS OUT OF CONTROL. NEW DRUGS ARE APPROVED EACH DAY,AND MOST PRODUCE A LIST OF SIDE EFFECTS THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH.

IT'S TIME TO SWITCH OFF YOUR TV AND TAKE BACK OUR WORLD. RESTORE IT TO INCLUDE REAL VALUES THAT BENEFIT PEOPLE AND NOT COMPANIES. 

GMO'S MUST GO! WE WANT HEALTHY WHOLESOME  ORGANIC FOODS IN OUR FOOD CHAIN. FRACKING MUST CEASE IF WE DON'T WANT ALL OUR GROUND WATER POISONED.

 DRUG COMPANIES AND CHEMICAL COMPANIES ARE ONE OF THE BIGGEST THREATS WE FACE.

ARE WE GOING TO LET THIS SPOIL OUR TIME HERE?

ABSOLUTELY NOT IF WE CAN HELP IT, AND WE CAN.

HELP FIGHT THESE EVILS EVERY CHANCE YOU GET.

RESTORE PROPER VALUES. WE WILL I'M SURE, BECAUSE IT'S WHATS RIGHT FOR US AND OUR CHILDREN.

GOOD DAY, BAD DAY, IT'S STILL A DAY, SEIZE IT AND DO GOOD BY IT.
