No better time

This quote from the movie They Live just rings truer and truer.

We are living in an artificially induced state of consciousness that resembles sleep. The poor and the underclass are growing. Racial justice and human rights are nonexistent.
They have created a repressive society and we are their unwitting accomplices ...their intention to rule rests with the annihilation of consciousness.
We have been lulled into a trance.
They have made us indifferent, to ourselves, to others, we are focused only on our own gain. They are safe as long as they are not discovered ...that is their primary method of survival. Keep us asleep, keep us selfish, keep us sedated...they are dismantling the sleeping middle class.
More and more people are becoming poor. We are their cattle. We are being bred for slavery.

That could be applied to any point in time. The word middle class has changed, but go back to the Romans. Same thing then. History repeats itself. Again and Again.

Rowdy Roddy Piper from the movie:
"I've come here to do two things, chew bubble gum and kick some ass...and I'm all out of bubble gum."
I guess history does repeat.

Glad I could help. It is a very smart movie. And has some great one liners to boot.

That movie IS really smart. Roddy really delivers some brain busters.
