Ok, I`ll give it a try:

Frog herself stood up against the commercial slavery system incarnated in her boss. I suppose her boss was angry at her because she was prioritizing non-profitable values, instead of following her boss` thirst for money. So Frog starts working for herself! What is the significance of this? She is a rebell, not happy with the system as it is, and she consequently makes her own firm so she is in controll of her own actions.

I'm not so altruistic.  Actually, I started working for myself because I'm an ADDer, not because I'm a rebel, although I suppose I'm sort of a rebel.    But not in terms of what is good for business v. people and what is not.

We all have to do something to make money.  Most of us work for others because either we don't have the intelligence or the ability to work for ourselves.  It takes a lot of initiative and stamina and creativity and other shit to start your own business. 

As an ADDer, I will inevitably forget to do something.  Also, I fly by the seat of my pants, and many employers don't appreciate that "quality".  So, my "boss" would come down on me, and I would inevitably tell him to fuck off because he couldn't understand the way I do things.  Rather than repeatedly lose my job, I'd rather just work for myself.

The bottom line is we all need to make money.  We live in a society that revolves around money as the barter system.  So, to make money, we have to work.  We either work for someone else, or we work for ourselves.  Or we live as beggars.  We have to fit in somewhere, rebels or not.  I prefer to work for myself.

The thing is, we would all "get fired" if we spoke our minds truly in the mason slave-state. But then frog tells us to submit to the system because everyone can`t win: "Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated!" -The Borg

I am not saying to submit to the system, except in a sense.  What we have is the only system there is that works, at this point:  Capitalism.  The Russians tried a different system, and it didn't work.  The sense in which I believe we have to submit is that there are only two options at this time:  Work for someone else, or work for ourselves.  If you can't work for yourself, and you don't want to be a beggar, then you have to work for someone else.  Don't you want to eat?

There can be no trancendence if not the entire morphogenetic field is changed. And if this is to happen, humanity as a whole must brake free from the price tag that is set on their heads. We must all start our own business, the business that has no price, the business of unfolding the self!

And this is the where frog is wrong; she is thinking within the system. When working for the corporate slave-state you work for yourself (for money), but let others do the thinking. If you truly want to work for others (creation) you must think for yourself...

She's assuming that regulation is possible?  The Drug War and the gang war stuff you posted are good examples of how the masses can never be regulated by the elite few.

---

Just because crime can't always be regulated by the elite doesn't mean that no one can be regulated.    Regulation is, in fact, possible, and it works.  Look at how well our government is supported by all of us taxpayers.    Some criminals are just smarter than other criminals, is all.  And there are always criminals that will step into the shoes of the not-so-smart criminals.

you just thought I wrote that essay, if you jsut scrolled down all the way, I posted a link that said "taken from here"  I just messed with you a little bit since I know you won't get offended, one of the many reasons why you kick ass!

Thanks, kaiowas, and you're just too funny.  I saw that link, but I didn't make the connection in my mind between that link and your post.  I miss "little" things like that sometimes.

I'll get to my point now...

when I talk about what you are working for, I guess I should have uttered WHO are you working for.

Important discrepancy, one would think.

where is the majority of your money going?  let's looks at some company names

(1) Murdoch-FoxTV-HarperCollins-WeeklyStandard-NewYorkPost-LondonTimes-DirecTV;
(2) G.E.-NBC-Universal-Vivendi
(3) Time-Warner-CNN-AOL;
(4) Disney-ABC-ESPN-comcast

In the 60's there were over 300 major media outlets in the country(300 independently owned)... By 1983 there was only 50, now there is 4

let's se some others

(5) HP-ISO-Digital GlobalSoft-compaq
(6) philip morris-miller brewing comp  (remember, morris makes more than jsut ciggs...hehe they make cookies too, among a host of other products)

more companies are merging...jsut keep watching the news. more companies merger trigger even more comapnies merging. they told us in school that there aren't many monopolies.  when we can see that this is a bunch of lies. they lie to us to keep us dumb, so we don't think. they'll just keep the company names up  oh...and btw...don't eve nthink for a second that our govt isn't connected to these companies at ALL.  especially with the ridiculous term of "soft money"

microsoft btw ownes about 7% of comcast which is the largest cable company in the world.  companies are merging left and right...the money of the billions of have nots are going to the few have's.  while many of us struggle, and many of us die because they couldn't pay the heating bills...they sit up there, not caring about us at all. And again, many of us here are content and pacified to do nothing since a lot of us jsut have enough.

we have an idea here that money is our goal in life.  filling up bank accounts...it's so hollow.  so much strife could be ended if helped each other out instead of being seperated and not organized. are we to just sit here and not care while millions in our own country starve or have no shelter? we are so hellbent on making money that we will either lead to our total self-distruction, or we will be controled to the point where even our basic freedoms will be gone

but hey, that's happening NOW! 

patriotic act and internet surveillence


our freedoms are going down the tubes, and we are still stuck thinking that what matters most in life is money.

money connects to religion, business, and our govt. our govt is connected business and religion, as religion is connected to business and govt.  funny thing is...money is completely fake.  we don't even have enough in our reserves to give out all these notes we process. there IS no regulation on how much money gets printed out.

"think for yourself...question authority"

am i paranoid...or is this just a little toooo real.

I think you have to create a different system.  I can't even begin to imagine the overhaul the current system would need, and who would do it, and how you would shake the masses off their  asses.

Sure i do the work my company asks me to do... i do fucking more... have i gotten a raise? No. Do i get paid less than other people who have been there not as long, and get payed more than i do... That is fact. So whats this about doing what they tell me to do?

Fuck them. It is my life. I do have a choice. TO think there rare people who dont get abused like this is BULLSHIT, i advise anyone who believes such a thing to open their eyes and take a look at the world once again.

Third world countries starving? Not our problem they're governed by another group of less-efficient masonists; seems to me the african masonists need to clean up their act and get shit moving.

You must be terribly blissful, cause you sound terribly ignorant in any case. Of course third world countries starving has nothing to do with Western companies making those people work for slave wages, threatening to move away if the government doesn't accept the low wages ! Of course they didn't become poor in the first place because the West exploited their natural resources during colonisation ! Of course the money spent on weapons in the West couldn't be better spent on programs to help those people out ! Sheesh !
