Nearing the End

I keep hearing Dems say they object to the war, hate Bush and Cheney and despise Republican greed, corruption and hate mongering. But I don't see them taking any action. At least not action that has any significant effect.

Maybe they're sincere. They're just too busy holding down two or three jobs trying to keep their heads above water in the Winner-Take-All Society crafted by the elite right. Too busy to drive to Washington. Too common and lowly to warrant a meeting with Bush.

Here's a quick way to do more than bitch and moan. Even do more than protest on street corners or quit your job in disgust. All that's required is a phone call or click a few buttons on a web site. Whatever it takes to transfer any saving, especially a 401K account, from investments in USA companies to (almost) any alternative foreign nation. Much easier than moving your family to Canada. Just move your money.

Here's how it works.

• Dems transfer savings and 401K account from US investments to foreign alternatives. As money pours into foreign investments the values will rise. Dems get a little richer.
• As money moves out of US stocks and bonds the values will drop. Stubborn Republicans, too dumb to take action, will be be left holding the bag (of US stocks and investments) as the domestic values fall. They get a little less rich.
• An added bonus: As the dollar falls (and it will) people (Dems) holding foreign investments will benefit. Then it might even be possible to drop back to one or two jobs instead of three. On the other hand, Republicans will see the value of their investments drop still further.

What will this do? For starters, bring Bush to his knees. Isn't that a good place to start?

Here's the time line. Do it be before July 4, 2006. I just picked that arbitrarily but wouldn't that make July 4th just that much more of a celebration of true independence?

Will it work? I doubt it. I frankly think that the vast majority of Americans, maybe 98%, fully support Bush, wars for oil and corporate greed. If you don't agree with me then feel free to prove me wrong. Move your investments.

The other big problem with this plan is that it has yet to be blessed by George Clooney. Dang that man is good looking. What power he wields!

What do you do if you don't have any money, saving or investments that can be liquidated and moved overseas? Call a friend or family member that does. It still just requires a phone call. Maybe not a completely private conversation thanks to AT&T and the NSA but it's still just a phone call.

Note: Try to avoid shifting money to countries as screwed up as the US. That includes England and Australia.

By July 4th I expect everyone who means what they've been saying (and saying, and saying) to take action. Either that or do nothing and come to the realization that you support Bush, et. al. just as much as any cold blooded Republican. After July 4th all I ask is that anyone who's still sitting on their hands to please SHUT UP for the next two years. Either way I'll have good reason to celebrate on 7/4/06. Kinda like the finale of V for Vendetta. You know, the fireworks.
