If you are standing on one spot, take a look down at your feet (Fig 1). What do you see? You see a pair of shod or unshod feet. You will see you really occupy a very small area on the floor or ground. Your physical body cannot be at the same time at another space. You are also inmensely small compared to the size of Earth. You are nothing but a speck of dust on this planet.

Additionally, when you eat you can eat only your stomach´s full, nothing more. You only have one stomach (Fig. 2).

When you go to bed, you can only sleep on one bed be it a fancy one or a bunch of hay on the ground at a time (Fig. 3). It does not matter whether or not you have 50 or 500 beds in a mansion because you will still sleep only on one bed at a time. No more. That´s it.

Nonetheless, there are a lot of people, too many, in this world who struggle to possess more of what they can use or will ever use, eat or will ever eat or need or will ever need. Having has become an obsession with them.
These people are indeed sick. They have a disease called Richnesss Fever or Midas Disease. They are plutomaniacs. The more money they have the more they want in an endless spiralling quest for richness and power. It will never be enough because no matter how much money they have or how many things they have, they will always feel poor or that they do not have enough of what they think they need or will ever need. They are trapped in the devil´s illusion net.
The following article written by Terry Fast shows us the wheelings and dealings of one of the richest families in the United States and that is caught in such net: The Bush family. Here it is verbatim:
By Terry Fast
For any
civilized endeavor to maintain its civility, there must be enforceable laws and/or rules;
without which, there is anarchy. So, as we find ourselves struggling to regain our lost
freedoms, perhaps we should take a strategic review of how we arrived at this alarming state,
honestly apprise our current status, and as we depart from yet another major election,
cast about for viable options for now as well as the foreseeable future.
Any objective observer with the barest awareness of contemporary history should be able to
readily trace the rise of this powerful movement that has taken control of the reins of
power in the United States. The most blatant initial historical record is when Grandpa Prescott
Bush and some of his cronies tried to entice General Smedley Butler to muster enough World War I veterans to
take over the
Presidency of The United States in 1933. Then again, in 1942 (a year after the U.S.
joined World War II), Prescott Bush and this same cabal -- in their drive toward fascism
-- were finally forced by the "Trading With the Enemy Act" to terminate their extensive business
dealings with Hitler.
After WWII, this American branch of the Nazis didn't lose the war, they just transformed
the battleground. They expanded their "connections" with Hitler's intelligence
networks from The War into the formation of our own CIA. It is also this same group
that President Eisenhower opaquely identified as the "Military Industrial Complex," in his dark farewell speech to us.
Later, it was Poppy George H.W. Bush who sat on a boat (named Barbara) off-shore and
directed the Cuban Bay Of Pigs fiasco. As a direct consequence of that largely
unsolicited action, John Kennedy banished him and his CIA brothers from his
administration, albeit only temporarily, as George H.W. Bush, then an active CIA
agent, was later photographed in Dealey Plaza that sunny November day in 1963.
From FDR to today, the Bush Crime Family and their fixated core of corporate fascists have, using unbridled corporate power, been
tightening their grip on the throats of the American political, legal, economic
and media systems -- as the following excerpt from the Democratic Underground so well
outlines:
"A Pocket History of the Bush Organized Crime Family Crime Line
Hitler's "Angel" -- Prescott Bush and his Wall Street cronies helped finance and arm the Third Reich.* Some continued trading with the enemy even after Germany declared war on America.
Hitler's "Angel" -- Prescott Bush and his Wall Street cronies helped finance and arm the Third Reich.* Some continued trading with the enemy even after Germany declared war on America.
Bay of Pigs -- Bush the Oilman and his Cuban and Mafia friends raise hell in Miami, New
Orleans and Houston. Nice fellahs. LBJ called their organization "A regular Murder Inc in
the Caribbean."
22 November
1963, Dallas* -- George DeMohrenschildt the "White Russian geologist" is friends with
both Lee Harvey Oswald and George Herbert Walker Bush. Small world, as the coincidences
get bigger. Almost 40 years later, FBI memos surface that detail how George Herbert Walker
Bush fingered a young conservative the day of the assassination and "Mr. George Bush of
the Central Intelligence Agency" cleared the anti-Castro Cubans in Miami days later.
Vietnam -- OK for poor kids to fight an illegal war started over the phony Gulf of Tonkin
Incident, just as long as "W," the drunken coke-whore dim son, "destined" to become
preznit some day, or the rest of his rich frat brothers don't have to go. Meanwhile
Poppy's rich friends became very, very, very rich.
Watergate -- Nixon was willing to throw anyone and everyone to the wolves -- except George
Herbert Walker Bush and "The Texans" because "They'll do anything for our side." Gee.
Would "murder" qualify as "anything." Think so, especially seeing how Nixon got the ziggy
and Bush ended up in the clear.
October Surprise -- Carter probably would've beat Reagan, but Bush and his buddies in
INTEL and the military-industrial complex cut a deal with the Ayatollah to hold the
hostages clear through the election. On inauguration day, they got to leave Tehran. A
couple of weeks later, Israel starts sending US-supplied weapons. It proves so
"profitable," that Ollie North cuts out the Israelis and decides to sell them
US-direct.
Reagan survives assassination attempt --Just a couple of months after Reagan is sworn in,
Reagan is ALMOST taken out and Bush stood ready to take charge. His son Neil was ready to
have dinner that night with John Hinckley's brother, Scott. Odd how these "One Degree of
Separation" coincidences always happen to Poppy.
INSLAW/Promis -- The turd Ed Meese and cronies stole software that enabled the Justice
Department to track criminal prosecutions, had their INTEL buddies add a trap door, and
then sold it around the world, making it possible to track what every BFEE-connected
dictator or friend from Saddam to d'Aubission is up to -- in Freedom�'s name.
Iraq-gate / Banca Nazionale del Lavoro arms -- Just how do you think Iraq managed to run
its war against Iran for all those years? Saddam had to be getting juice from somebody, so
they found a low-level banker in Miami to take the fall. US taxpayers floated Saddam $5
billion in loans. Meanwhile the Iran-Iraq war is prolonged by years and several hundreds
of thousands of lives are lost.
BCCI International Money Laundering for Terrorists & Intelligence Community -- The
terrorists' favorite bank, used by among others Abu Nidhal, Osama bin Laden, Ollie North,
CIA, SIS and KGB. The Reagan and Bush administrations and friends on both sides of the
aisle in Congress did all they could to keep it open. John Kerry got it shut down.
Savings & Loan
Scandal -- Legalized robbery in the form of "loans" made to the politically connected,
Mafia and INTEL-huggers. Odd how even Neil Bush, who made millions while Silverado, the
S&L he helped direct, lost billions in bad loans to Bush cronies, never spent a day in
jail. Kid from Detroit steals a pair of shoes from the mall and it's OK to shoot him dead.
Meanwhile, after the bailout "fixes" everything, Poppy's very, very, very rich friends
become ultra-rich.
Iran-Contra -- Neo-con Michael Ledeen, Munacher Ghorbanifar and Adnan Khashoggi bend over
backward to sell arms the Ayatollah and use the profits to arm the terrorist Contras. Most
of the players should be in prison, but, thanks to Poppy's pardon, remain free to roam the
streets, let alone corridors of power, and continue the terror.
Arbusto, HARKEN, Spectrum-7, Aloha -- Every company the crazy monkey's ever touched, he's
run into the ground. Yet Poppy's family and friends, including James R Bath, the bin
Mahfouz and bin Ladens, always help him out. No wonder the dim bulb went off thinking of
ENRON, Kenny Boy and all the possibilities.
Gulf War I -- Poppy Bush gives April Glaspie the signal to greenlight Saddam's "border
dispute" and push into Kuwait. No wonder Saddam felt betrayed when Cheney ordered the
extermination of tens of thousands of fleeing Iraqi conscripts heading north on the
"Highway of Death." Meanwhile, Poppy's ultra-rich friends become ultra-ultra-ultra
rich.
Selection 2000 Shreds US Constitution -- After fixing things up so that 70,000 likely
Democratic votes and voters are turned away or disenfranchised, the 2000 Florida
Presidential "election" results in a "tie." Associate Justice Antonin Scalia gets the idea
that maybe the GOP-packed Supreme Court should grant petitioner George W Bush's request
for taking the Oval Office, anyway. Someone on DU wrote: "You don't steal elections to do
good things." Prophetic words, those.
ENRON Energy Policy -- Sneering Dick Cheney meets with Kenny Boy Lay to discuss ways of
helping ENRON rip-off California and the rest of America. There were others there, like
Chevron and EXXON, because they need oil, too. Besides, the ultra-, ultra-, ultra-rich can
never have enough.
9-11 -- After ignoring the warnings of outgoing President Bill Clinton, former National
Security Advisor Sandy Berger, anti-Terror Chief Richard Clarke, and Director of Central
Intelligence George Tenet, George W Bush ignores a report titled "Bin Laden Determined to
Strike in the U.S." A month later, 3,000 innocent people are murdered. Two ways of looking
at this one: 1.) Criminal Negligence, at best; 2.) Treason, most likely.
Gulf War II -- George W Bush, Sneer, and most of "the bureaucracy" make a case for going
to war in Iraq, stating there are clear-cut connections between 9-11* and
Saddam Hussein, who planned to use his arsenal of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons
on America. (So far, the only bioweapon used on America was Anthrax that came from a US
Army lab grown from a batch of the University of Iowa Strain.) Anwyay, it's not really odd
to see how attacking Iraq was the Administration's number 1 priority, according to former
Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill and anti-Terror Chief Richard Clarke, from January 2001.
The reason? There's money to be made there and power to be gained at home."(end of

So much for a historical perspective; where do we currently stand? Well,
our political, legal, governmental, military and medical systems as well as
our unions have all been thoroughly compromised. Financially,
since we are deeply in debt (mostly to China) "they" are selling off our corporate and country assets and now simply
"appropriating" cash to pay off their bad gambling debt to the tune of over $850 billion
in a "Bailout," our tax system and the Federal Reserve Banking system are beyond
any controls, the demoralized
and frightened middle class is being rapidly dissolved, our worldwide reputation is sullied more than at any time in our
history and the value of the dollar continues to fall. Our infrastructure and
environment are deteriorating while corporate and political corruption are rampant, bigotry and
racism -- while receding -- still covertly abound, our traditional news
sources have become cheering profit centers for the administration and our voting processes
are, at best, unreliable. Not the healthy picture of progress and hope that used to be
the norm, prior to the sixties -- before someone started killing off the Kennedy
brothers and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
--
This may sound like a broken record, but the recent election is truly going to be critical
to the survival
of our democratic way of life -- and thus the world. Perhaps we should begin to think
of the individuals that
supported the Bush administration as bloated, self-absorbed and out-of-control
addicts, in need of intervention. Now, in an intervention, the first thing that has to
happen is that the addict must be subjected to the facts of reality until their wall of
denial is first exposed and then accepted. The initial indication that that has occurred
is when the addict admits that there is a problem and then becomes actively motivated to
do something about it. It appears that the 2008 election demonstrated that a growing
majority of Americans think things are broken and want a change. Now, is the time to educate and motivate our fellow citizens to seek out and regain
their lost sense of morality.
The next step -- and this is at the heart of the matter -- is what can/should be done to
correct our dire situation. It is going to take some very strong, passionate, wise,
emotional and motivating leadership. Emphasis here should be on "motivating," because our
next leader(s) must circumvent the biased media outlets while
resisting the temptation to allow older, more corrupt influences, to regain control.
Elaborating on a phrase from the beginning of this statement, "... there must be
enforceable laws and/or rules ..." ESPECIALLY in our electoral and financial
systems. Even though Rove and his ilk may seem to have left Washington, we mustn't
let our guard down. They are still practicing their
nefarious deeds, somewhere. Keep in mind that the thing about laws and rules is that
they are usually created, modified and put into effect AFTER the fact. Also, be aware
that it is VERY difficult to resist control when you don't have the money to buy food,
shelter, or clothing -- much less the weapons of resistance. If Obama is able to follow
through with just a bare majority of his campaign promises, perhaps we can still miss
taking a bullet, this time. However, let this be a major lesson -- fascism and democracy
don't mix ... so we had better RAPIDLY fix our democracy/Congress while
we, hopefully, still can!
Finally, should we work our way out of this madness, one of our first imperatives, as we repair the damage
done, should be to prosecute ALL of the criminal acts that this ruthless group
of international thugs has committed. This statement is not made with a sense of
vengeance, but with an eye toward setting such a strong example with these individuals
that they, and their
minions, will forever give up on any future attempts to corrupt
this, our enlightened struggle for universal, renewable, human
freedom.

If a poor man steals a chicken he is thrown in jail but if a person is filthy rich having directly or indirectly gotten his filth screwing up the whole planet tearing it up after precious natural resources and setting up endless chains of businesses the law does not and will not bother him, for the laws are made and designed to protect the filthy rich. Furthermore, those who make the laws usually asskiss the rich.
Such is the world we live in. In many ways we are culprits of this state of things, for we admire shitty, crooked and greedy people as long as they are dressed up with robes made of silk, don gold and rubies, live in mansions and drive huge limousines filled with piss product of their tonnes of gold taken care of by the Swiss in vaults built exclusively for this.
This is the world this beast who always makes a point of calling himself Homo sapiens, meaning he is very sapiens, has created for himself to fight and fend off fear of death and hunger and ancient primeval nightmares that when humans have accumulated millions of gold bullions should no longer exists. But the richer the greater the fear for fear of fear.
Wherever you see a rich man, he is not only filthy but also a manslaughterer and destroyer of life, for to construct empires wars must be waged and Nature trampled down, and in the process he ends up swimming in tanks full of millions of gallons of his own shit. That would be fine were it just for himself but unfortunately he drags others to his shitty pit.
Any millionaire is therefore a true beast and one with no leash, and it is up to us to put a leash around his neck for the benefit of everyone who dwells on planet Earth and wants to live in peace.
Let us remember, rich people know no peace and always work against peace notwithstanding they frequently say they are for peace and hide behind peace.
Beware of rich people who constantly talk of democracy and peace whilst warmongering at home or in the East!
