I saw the OJ trial.
I saw them burn people alive in Waco.
I saw the two planes fly into the Twin Towers.
I witnessed the "Great Rip Off" in the 2009 plundering of Wall Street.
It seems like I was always around a TV when something majorly weird happened in the last 20 years of the USA. Plus, I am a Nam Teen, a Baby Boomer, an old hippie rock 'n roller and now, a blogging eCommerce kinda guy. I still have a conscience and a heart beat.
And back in the day, I read "Future Shock" by Alvin Toffler. It seemed amazing when I first read it, but part of me sensed that Toffler was on to something. His book came out when Viet Nam was still a war and we had President Nixon and the '73 recession. I am positive that I read Toffler's book about the same time and . . . Buffalo Springfield had that strange song, "Stop, Children, What's That Sound." Not to mention how weird it was for college kids to be beaten in Chicago during the Dem Convention and college kids being shot dead in Kent State. See. It doesn't matter what political party is in office. Is there something about that reality that we may not want to face?
This stuff has been mind blowing. No wonder, this generation has had to be sedated or was sedation part of the plan?
Amazing. Why don't they call 2009, "The Great Rip Off?"
Are you beginning to feel me? I question everything and while I cannot prove some of our theories, we do have to raise some questions. "Everybody look what's going down." Isn't that what the man said?
I digress. Toffler's book. Did you read it? What did you think of it then? What do you think of it now?
I told you already. I think Toffler was on to something. I think that Toffler knows something that average people do not. I think it was uncanny how Toffler seemed to know what was coming down the pipeline.
Is it possible that our society is a very highly planned game that a few elitists play? Is there a root cause that brings upheaval in our society? Is there money to be made . . .
Bob Dylan once said, "You've got to serve somebody." Jesus said it, too. The apostle Paul was right there with it. What will you serve?
Alright. This will do for an introduction.
Check up on Toffler. Go to the library and skim through the index and pick a few sections to read. Be prepared for an awesome experience. Come back here and let's share some thoughts.
