Thoughts about Roseanne Barr’s
Green Tea Party Proposal and the Riots in England
1
No, it’s not comedy. It’s real.
I’m serious. We need a green (‘ecological’), anti-racist Tea Party of all
poor and ‘middle class’ people in America. And barter is fairer than
commerce that cons farmers and consumers, all the hard-working people of
America. And the debt problem vanishes if we abolish money. And Presidents
shouldn’t get a dime as salary – or from lobbyists. They should see it
as an honor – like Native American chiefs did. Before they
could be bought by uranium and coal companies seeking permission to devastate
tribal lands.

The bosses, the ‘elite,’ the
political mafia that rules – they pillage the world, don’t they? They set
entire countries aflame. How do they dare to have the crust and pose as
protectors of peace, liberty, a ‘good order’?
Are they really above the youngsters
who steal to make a living and who deal and smoke pot? Kids at the margin
of society, neglected and rejected by the school system, rarely wanted
by employers, poor but enticed by the televised images of a ‘rich world’
– the world of affluence, luxuries, consumerism. Then these kids see a
buddy killed by the cops, for no understandable and apparent reason. They
explode, they loot, they burn. No, it’s not a sane answer, it’s not a solution.
But what right does Mr. Cameron have to talk about scum? What right does
Mr. Blair have, to denounce them? Or Mr. Brown. All those people in high
office… People again and again in bed with the rich. Even with a multi-billionaire
who wiretaps the conversations of widows grieving about soldiers sent to
war.
