In previous sections of this series I’ve concentrated on
what’s wrong with all of us – which is
all we have real control over. This week I’ll get around eventually to picking
on you and me, but I’m going to start with Them.
The Faceless, “Omnipotent” They
I’m really getting tired of these people, these people who
run things. I’m even more tired of the rest of us letting them. They have power over the most important parts of our
lives, yet They are a creepy,
shadowy lot. Some who run for office show us their official faces, but Barack
Obama, A.K.A Barry Soetoro, for instance, is still a mystery. Some, like Ben
Bernanke, land fairly public jobs, but mostly They skulk around in marble-walled offices turning the
tumblers on bank vaults. Now and then we learn the names of the scientists who
make major “discoveries,” but rarely do They come out from behind those white coats. Who are
those guys inventing more deadly forms of bird flu?
