New Group Forming...Nine Dog Society!

Tweet

Some friends of mine and I have formed a new group, We call ourselves the Nine Dog Society, a name that comes from a blog a member wrote about special interest money controlling our country. We want to do more than talk about problems, we want to make changes. We have groups on several different social networking sites, and are ready to start our work in the real world. Here is an abbreviated version of that blog. American laws have, in the past several decades, resulted in a stratification of income more unequal than at any time in our history. This stratification in conjunction with campaign policies that effectively reapportion our political voices along income levels have done great damage to our democracy. We no longer have any semblance of equality, we have legalized bribery. Special interest groups now write, promote, and enact our laws openly. This is a disservice to the American people, and an insult to our founders and those who have given their lives in our defense. Perhaps an experiment would be useful to illustrate the point. Suppose you had ten dogs and enough food to feed them all with twenty percent left over. Now give ninety percent of that food to one dog and let the rest fight it out for the remainder. How many happy dogs do you suppose you will have? How long before the one with ninety percent of the food is attacked and killed so that the rest of the pack can survive? Please don't actually try this, but would you consider the nine dogs immoral? Of course you wouldn't, they are doing what they must to survive. They are simply playing by the rules of the natural economy, an economy that we, even with all our contrivances and complications, are also subject to. We are the nine dogs, but for some reason unfathomable to me we are fighting over the scraps and leaving the dog with all the food alone. This would never happen with real dogs of course, the rich dog would eat his fill and walk away leaving the rest to his fellows, but we are not as moral as those dogs would be. Those who suggest we should adopt the morals of dogs are called socialists and told that what is good for the pack is an insult to individual aspirations. We are told that if we suggest that we all survive together we are a stain on our national reputation. I think it is time that the American people adopt at least the level of morality of a pack of dogs. If you agree with what you have just read, please join us. We have a website up, the "Nine Dog Society" and we are planning our strategy and laying the groundwork to start making an impact. This is a non partisan group, we want ALL special interest groups out of American politics. American politics is for American citizens, nowhere in our Constitution is any other entity given that right. We do hope you will join us. The more members the greater they impact will be. http://ninedogsociety.ning.com/
