Dave Lefcourt's Article: Will the American people wake up? Dave is an author writing from the left of the Democratic Party. My comment is not meant to denigrate him or his work, but hopes to raise awareness on what I believe is the true problem. My comment: Dear Dave, Even if the American people wake up, it will not help because they'll have to first look in the mirror. The American people are not pawns. They elect the war-mongers and give them impunity. They give up their income and go into debt to feed the dogs of war. They send their sons and daughters to commit atrocities for the corporate class and the ruling class. As long as the American people continue to blame others for their problems, waking up will not help. Ask yourself how is it possible for 99% to be ruled by the 1% in a democratic and free society if the people don't allow it? It won't even happen in an authoritarian society. Don't blame it on the ruling class and the war-mongers because the American people have empowered them. Don't blame it on the free press because the people want the freedom to lie and slander. Why else would Americans accept 250,000 deaths (unfortunately to become a million in eighteen months) and blame everything on China? In fact, if this happened in China, the liars and imbeciles would be festooned on trees. China does have a long and rich history of peasant rebellions. In fact, disgruntled peasants have directly or indirectly caused the downfall of almost every Chinese dynasty since the Han dynasty more than two thousand years ago, which was established by a peasant. Don't blame our problems on that nebulous "they." Blame ourselves. We have met the enemy and he is us. By the way, globalization is an American idea. America has the dollar hegemony. It buys everything with money it creates out of thin air (actually through debt owed by the people). Others must earn that US dollar in order to pay for essentials that they need for survival, development, and trade. America is the wealthiest, most powerful, and freest country in the world, why would the people want slave wage jobs mining or making shoes? In American politics, everyone wants jobs. Have the American people lost their marbles? Why would they need 80-hour a week shit jobs that pay two dollars an hour so their children can grow up without a family? China sacrificed a generation of its people to working in shit jobs so China's children can get educated and be more competitive in the global market dominated by America and the West. Americans don't need jobs. They need the basic guarantee of a home, healthcare, education, food, and the means to communicate. Then they need to stop bombing other countries, stop sanctioning whoever whenever for whatever reasons, and use their spare time to travel the world to learn about how to live in peace with the rest of the world. The American people are not pawns. They are America. Wake up indeed and look in the mirror. Change yourself and then go out and change America. Only by changing America that we can change the world for good. That is the only hope for America and the only possibility of peace for the world.
