Democracy

This is interesting week so far, Michael Jackson's Doctor is on trial for Manslaughter? Gross negligence? or just being way too close to Michael Jackson? Amanda Knox is redeemed in an Appeal Case of Murdering Her Roommate. Macintosh/Apple Ceo Steve Jobs passed away and Protesters March on Wall Street.

You might say that one of those things has to do with Democracy, but I beg to differ and let me tell you why. In this Country we are all a part of a Network of instrumental parts to a Union. State of the Union, Unions, United states of America. " All for one and one for ALL." This my friends is so True that even the Mightiest Mavericks and Rouge Conspirators cannot escape the grips of our dilema.

I write my thoughts in this Blog post as I often do with a hint of Sarcasm, a little opinion and a whole lot a dos of reality. You see, I'm just a local boy on the rez with armchair Quarter back aspirations and a keyboard with internet access. These words more than likely get a a small pause by my friends who I share the links with and get a small response, "there he goes again, ranting on about some kind of nonsense." You see, I know this and I don't care because I am aware of a bigger picture here. In the Broader Scope of a simple Update or a mobile picture shared to the Internet, there are Data Collectors out there. Without being too Technical, an Internet Server is sitting somewhere with a program running that matches words too ideas, ideas too subjects and so on and so forth... The outcome is that when analyst is tasked with taking the information and making it mean something, They will undoubt-did-lee look for the peaks & valleys in the Data. Which means something will stick out! In all of the far off vision or in some deep recess of Government Secret Lair, no doubt a barely over teenager will point to the information provided here and say it's raising the Curve above normal expectation. It will be the only thing that is focused on and will cause much scrutiny.

Now you might say to yourself, "Why on earth would somebody want to recieve much Scrutiny?"  here is my Theory on that: "The Squeaky Wheel gets the Grease." In this Case, I'm that squeaky wheel
and the Grease is I'll be allowed to contribute to electronic Data. If not for any other reason, but because of suspicion. You see the world is getting smaller and smaller everyday. Pretty soon the powers that be will be finding reasons to cut people off of the internet. Today they call it Net Neutrality, but what it means is that network traffic will become segregated. They are already doing it in Mobile networks where the preferred customer ($$) is on the top level. Then less contributors ($) will be under them and so on and so forth. You will all of a sudden be aware of it, but not until you visit a rich friend and realize he or she can watch videos with little or no effort, Download whole libraries of music or find anybody on the internet. This of course is bad if you can't do the same, but let me tell you the worst part.

Remember how this Blog started with some mentions of a few popular stories & Democracy. Well let me clear up any confusion by telling you that the producers of those stories ie: Media Corporations, alias preferred customers ($$) will freely move about on the Top tier Networks. They will be scavenging the lower or lesser network users (you & me) to see what we talk about, what we like and try to sell it to us. Seems fair right? Not exactly because if you remember it was your and my tax dollars that started the internet. The argument that is now presented in this Nations Government (Our Government), is that these Companies spend Billions of dollars building these networks. I say that is not convincing either because they use our money again, as customers, too build these networks.

Think of it like the Matrix where the Rebel, Morpheus must find the chosen one to battle Mr. Smith. If you recall Mr. Smith was a computer program that magically appeared in the presence of the small group who new the truth about the matrix. Everybody else was just living in tiny bubbles while being recycled and fed to the others with their only reality being a fantasy. You see? the tiny bubbles of reality are our little cubicles where were earn our little paychecks, while the Government gets into bed with Giant Corporations to conspire too make us believe we need the little bubbles to be happy.

Those little bubbles are the stories about Michael Jackson's Doctor and Amanda Knox or whatever can be used as a distraction, so that we won't pay attention too the Morpheus crew on Wall Street. I'm like the phone that rings on the wall and when you answer it, your transported back to reality.
