HAPPY LABOR DAY, AMERICA

“Happy Labor Day, America.

Please enjoy the day off and try not to think about the inhuman multinational corporations run by soulless, reptilian billionaires who could not possibly care less about the quality of your lives and in many cases work to oppress you.

Absolutely do not think about your two corrupt political parties, one of which has utterly failed to deliver the change it promised and the other, which has adopted a platform composed solely of hatred, intolerance, and lies.

Political parties - funded and populated by the same wealthy sociopaths who run your corporations - that have long since given up on any sort of meaningful dialog and now exist solely to hurl rhetoric at each other and pander to the most ignorant of their base constituencies.

All broadcast in stunning HD by a corrupt mass media, ALSO run by evil billionaires, that actively encourages and profits off of the discord and animosity generated by your fatally compromised democratic process.

BUT SERIOUSLY ENJOY YOUR HOT DOGS OR WHATEVER”

- J. Jacques, who at least for today is completely on the level.

"Bank of America’s Countrywide Financial business has agreed to pay a record fine of $335m (£214m, 257m euros) to settle discrimination charges. The US justice department said around 200,000 qualified African-American and Hispanic borrowers were charged with higher rates “solely because of their race or national origin”."

As we protest corrupt systems and institutions like BofA, it is extremely important to remember that race still plays a major role in the oppression of the people. 

Financially, culturally, and politically, racism is not over.
