Morning in America

Kadizzle awakened only to realize he is alive for one more day.  The house is scattered with junk as we try to get ready for the final exit.  In the executive suite Kadizzle read the FFR paper Honest Omar sent. Thanks Honest. So the day starts.  Appears to be a nice day with the country in chaos.  Uncle Ben has been giving us disturbing reports from Winky's hometown Richmond, Va.  Meanwhile stupidity rains supreme.  Ignorance and Republican thoughts have the country in the grip of a massive cloud of thoughtlessness.  Kadizzle thinks the train is coming down the tracks.  Ahead may be an incredible economic disruption.  Laying in bed last night it occurred to Kadizzle that the underlying cause of riots in our cities is income inequality.  Look back in history.  When the peasants are driven to the fence they rebel.  What happens when you take a bunch of young people and put them out of work?  They have time on their hands, and no money.  When a country deliberately makes massive numbers of people poor by giving all the money to the rich it is bound to backfire.  That is what history has shown too many times.  Of course we learn nothing.  The greedy rich learn nothing.  In the end the heads of the rich usually come off.  Blinded by their greed they let themselves be killed.

All this makes Kadizzle think of a house up by the lake.  A guy, Honest Omar probably knows must have made a fortune with his aviation business in Bismarck.  With cash burning in his pocket the man built a $3.4 million dollar house.  Now that is a whopper of a lake home in North Dakota.  Kadizzle went o zillow to see the add for the house.  When you look at the rooms of the house you can see the person went insane trying to spend money.  The house has three laundry rooms an indoor pool and indoor hot tub by the pool.  The garage is bigger than the house with three side by side stainless steel sinks to clean the fish.  Although the garage has a big expensive motor home the guy never finished filling it with toys.  Here is  a man obsessed with pissing away money that could have done so much good elsewhere.  The house is 11,000 square feet.  Now the house is on the market for 2.3 million.  For some strange reason the home was built down in a gully and the hill beside the home has caved in a couple times costing hundreds of thousands to correct.  Multiply this idiot by tens of thousands and you see what is wrong with out greed driven society.  Me, me, me, is the new mantra while people are out of work and kids live in rat homes.   Now for a disclaimer.  Kadizzle is probably also guilty by degree.  We live well and have had some nice toys, so we are not unguilty.  What is the job of the government?  A major function of government should be to keep the rich from robbing the poor to too great of an extent.  Slavery was an extreme example of the rich robbing the poor.  Our economic system encourages robbing the poor and exploiting the stupid.  Naturally this leads to a leader like Trump.
