An
Opinion
by Alex Hutchins
Is revolution coming in the US or as is stated in the Game of
Thrones: Winter is coming… And, what will be the foundation of that
revolution?
Will it be between the voting public and our elected Republican and
Democratic Congresspersons and Senators?
Or…
Will it be between the “haves,” and the “have nots?”
Or…
Will it be between the educators and the graduates because they were not
taught anything of value for 4 years?
Or…
Will it be between husbands and wives for all the affairs and/or because
of all the abuse that they have endured?
Or…
Will it be between the races because of all the discrimination that still
exists big time today.
Or…
Will it be between the terrorists from all over the world and the
Americans?
Or…
Will it be between the Chinese and the American because we refused to pay
them back all the money we borrowed?
All over the world, revolution is blowing in the wind like the Arab Spring
Phenomenon or the Mexican Drug Cartel that has moved its operations into the US
to reduce transportation costs for their biggest customer.
Little by little, our quality of life is slipping through our fingers like trying to hold water or in the subliminal uneasiness we all feel. We crave something different but we have no idea what that something is or how to get it.
We are like “boiling frogs” and do not see nor do we understand the extent of our manipulation. We are inundated by all forms of media to spend money and go into debt as our purchased products are designed with planned obsolescence so we are forced to upgrade or replace.
Talking heads tell us every day how much turmoil our world is in while crazed teenagers spend as much money as their parents will allow on clothes and concerts.
Short term thinking businesses and banks care more about dividends and profits than they do about employees and their families while giving 10% of their income to their Church in the hopes of mitigating their guilt…

Revolution and the winter both are coming!
"Revolution"
by The Beatles
You say you want a revolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Alright, alright
You say you got a real solution
Well you know
We don't love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know
We're doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Alright, alright, al...
You say you'll change the constitution
Well you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know know it's gonna be alright
Alright, alright
Well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
