42% of us are not the 99%

First of all, you gotta smirk at things like "We are the 99%."  Some things are just too ludicrous to say, and we need a whole host of naughty little boys out there pointing out that the Emperor is naked.

Then you have to reckon with the fact that there is no wisdom out there.  For the covetous thousands to gripe about the greedy four hundred is to say that there is some strange hierarchy which elevates some sins as more heinous than others. 

Then you have to fight the urge not to panic about the state our country is in. We are ignoring the massive debt problem. We are giving up any semblance of a free market and individual liberty on a daily basis.   And most people are too preoccupied with just staying alive (and too distracted by mass entertainment) to give any of it any serious thought. Except the Occupiers, who still don't know what their agenda is.

Actually they have issued way too many agenda statements. A chilling one that came out this week, between "unionize everybody" and "six hour work days" was that homeschooling should be outlawed, because it allows religious fanatics to teach propaganda to their chidlren without the mighty hand of government sanction.    

I'll repeat it until somebody pays attention: 

1.  Look around with eyes wide open. 
2.  Acknowledge the foolishness with fearless tenacity. 
3.  Feed yourself on God's wisdom daily.  
4.  Repent of personal sin. 
5.  Repent of national sin.  
6.  Cry out to God for mercy.  
7.  Warn others.   
8.  Trust God anyway.
