Broken Liberty BBC Radio 4: The Whitehouse Coup
posted 05/11/08
~ In 1933 corporate America attempted to implement a coup against the US Government with plans to install a right-wing fascist dictatorship. One of the players in this treason was Prescott Bush, Georgie's grandaddy among other so called captains of industry, whom I refer to as traitors. This coup was thwarted due to the efforts of General Smedley Butler whom corporate america tried to draw into their conspiracy. Unlike the business sector of America, General Butler believed in democracy, he believed in the principles that America was founded upon and it is thanks to him that this coup didn't take place in 1933.
From my observations however of how America has changed since the first attempted coup I have posed for several years that this didn't end the corporate attempt to take over America, that it merely forced them to go underground and use more deceptive, furtive techniques over time to steal the nation from the people and complete for the most part what they tried in 1933. Through funding right-wing politicians, right-wing think tanks, consolidating media into fewer corporate hands, constantly moving political dialogue as far to the right as possible, dominating the economic system, they have basically succeeded in their coup. Now the country is completely corporate ruled, both political parties completely dominated by the wealthy few, wealth goes upward to the wealthiest, information is dominated by a few media conglomerates, right-wing war mongering dominates what we hear and see on TV, and they have even demonized the word "liberal" as liberalism has always been an enemy of fascism, they have instituted corporate theft rights like NAFTA and GATT, they prevent the nation from adopting a sane national health care system because a few want to milk us for every cent they can while millions suffer, they have exported our manufacturing base overseas to exploit impoverished people with zero loyalty to our country, they keep much of our wealth they have stolen in offshore accounts to avoid taxes while we pay our share and theirs, they manufacture wars through their media, think tanks, and phoney experts that serve a corporate agenda, they get you to sacrifice yourselves and your kids in their manufactured wars where the agenda isn't to serve the country but loot other countries and our treasury, they are putting us into massive debt that our grandchildren will be paying for while they receive no-bid contracts and make record profits, they have privatized everything in Iraq and wrote their constitution for them opening the country completely to foreign ownership and are planning the same with other nations especially in the middle east and using us to do it. Meanwhile they have been gradually been doing the same here. They have created a revolving door between them and government and deliberately undermine elements of our government such as social programs so they can claim they don't work so that money will go to private hands instead and they have and will again make attemprts to steal the social security fund.
That is just a small sample of what corporate power, the owners of the US, thanks to this coup against our nation are up to. I could go on but that would be a book! The business sectored failed in the 1930's but they succeeded in their coup overall through deception, gradual domination, and attrition of the systems that had protected the American people. Now we are used, lied to, manipulated, conned into relinquishing OUR constitutional rights and over 200 years of accomplishments, they have bred you to hate some 'other' while they exploit that division, use it to make wealth, keep people divided, make war, steal from you, and hide the reality of the true evil and threat to democracy which is our evil corporate masters who some time ago stole our country.
Listen to the story at the links below and learn what should be taught in every elementary school to instill the importance of protecting what was and should be our democracy. You will know why it is not taught in school, why it is barely known. As the saying goes, it is the winners who write history and the American business sector, our home grown fascists defeated us and stole our nation from us. They go through institutional motions, wrap themselves in the flag, but its all artificial, PR, to give an appearance of legitimacy. As the current regime has shown they place themselves above the law as they choose and have committed the most horrible of crimes, just like fascists they are.
This is one of the most important chapters in American history that I know of, because its when the wealthy few attempted to steal the country from the people, they committed treason plain and simple, the only time since the nations infancy where our country would be taken from us, and they got away with it then and now because they did win in the end. They stole it, they did what no outside force could do and destroyed our democracy, our republic. But it can be undone, it is our country after all, not a thing to be exploited by these traitors whose predecessors should have paid for their crime. We can take it back, I really know it is possible.
