I manage to catch a bit of US President Barack Obama’s State of the Union speech and I’ve come to the conclusion* that he is just like our politicians.
Things will get better. Things will change. Things aren’t perfect now but tomorrow all will be well.
Tomorrow.
They are all the same, no matter what side of the pond.
You think, ‘great! These people have all the answers! The previous lot started off with all the answers but never got round to answering them.’ So you vote for them and all is going to be well, it’s going to be hard, but tomorrow all will be well and then after a while you realise that they don’t have the answers, then you turn to the other lot, and they are making promises and have all the answers so you think, ‘great!’ Etcetera.
They are all the same.
Unlike the (workable if applied correctly no exceptions) way of Anarcho-Communism. Complete and total abolition of the state, of money, a levelling of society, people’s councils, people getting together and everyone doing what they can do best according to their ability, whether street sweeper or doctor, whether actor or farmer, working for the good of one another not to put money in the pockets of the owners and capitalists and elected officials who make promises all will be well tomorrow.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
It is the only way forward.
But I know now, unless there is a complete revolution, people wake up to the truth, it won’t ever happen. Because people are distracted by working for stuff, working for the company, working to survive. People who choose to work for themselves, for their family, and not declare because of the capitalist/political hassle involved in signing off and ending benefits when really it should be as easy as walking out of your door are labelled and hounded as dole cheats because they don’t fall into what the boss class wants them to be.
Meanwhile,
Things will get better, tomorrow.

*Took me long enough, didn’t it?
