Je Suis 1Percent and Titanian FishLizards

The one percent is the star chamber of eighty-five people who own half the wealth of the world.

Typically the Foxies claim they are 1% also but that's no different from Kim Kardashian wanting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  If you're not truly one of the eighty-five, you don't even have enough money to tip the driver at valet parking when the eighty-five meet.  Besides, if you didn't come in a helicopter, you're not 1% anyway.

All of that posturing is GOP obfuscation to gloss over the reality of the ridiculously small number of people who control such vast wealth.  There are hundreds of thousands of wealthy people but they're paupers relative to the eighty-five and would only embarrass themselves going to their parties.

In parallel with the fantastic wealth of the eighty-five, 3.1 million children die of malnutrition every year.  (World Food Programme:  Hunger Statistics)

The United Nations works assiduously to address the problems of global health and nutrition but the UN has no greater enemy than the GOP.  Any idea the 1% actually wants to help solve problems of the world is rubbish as no-one fights harder to prevent it or to undermine those who do try to solve them.  This goes all the way back to the John Birch Society of the fifties and sixties with their billboards to get the US out of the UN.  Back then they were on the fringe but now it's GOP policy.

The world has turned into the set for "Starship Troopers" and it shouldn't be long before the billboards go up to announce SERVICE BRINGS CITIZENSHIP and a bunch of Fascists in grey suits will tell you of the tremendous peril to Earth from Klendathu.  Naturally, citizenship is required if you will run for political office or get a license to have babies and the only way to get citizenship is through military service.

Note:  the threat from Titanian FishLizards is real and, what's more, they have already been here.  (LiveScience:  170-Million-Year-Old 'Fish Lizard' Fossil Unearthed in Scotland)

Remember, Service Brings Citizenship so go forth and do righteous battle with the Titanian FishLizards before they return.  The 1% won't go but they will be happy to send someone else's kid.
