Colonialism/ Neo-Colonialism

     On Wed. 2/18/2015 we talked about the Pros and Cons of Colonialism. The question was posed that the world would not of evolved as well as it did without the expansion and colonization of the known world by Western Europe. I think that's a load of crap because when you look at the evolution of humans every major advance in our race occurred almost simultaneously across the planet. So just because Europeans couldn't play nice in the yard does not mean that these great advances would not of happened anyway. Maybe the advances of man would have been even greater if  colonization had not occurred. Historians are now challenging the estimates of how big the indigenous population of North America was before colonization nearly wiped them from existence. So instead of giving kudos to the English, French, Dutch, and Spanish we should give them a Bill to pay for the cleanup of all the Mess and Grief they caused around the world. That's only one mans view of colonialism.

     Next we look at Neo-Colonialism and all things American. We want to recreate the world in our own image like we are Gods of Society.We really need to get off our soap box and treat our citizens as well as those around the world with some dignity and respect. Instead we try to change people one Coke at a time, a few pieces of KFC, and Big Macs all around. Meanwhile our greatest citizens Walmart, BOA, ING, Microsoft, Disney, G.E.,Monsanto, and less then 1% of the wealthiest Americans have stolen our government, our rights, our health, our futures, and plundered most of the worlds wealth. We have been exploited and watched our quality of life spiral down over the last 30 years thanks to good old Neo-Colonialism. Right to work(Exploit) is the new trend and the propaganda about how bad unions are even though they only make up less then 12% of labor in the U.S. today. When will the people ever wake up and say ENOUGH!!!!!!!! So Hooray for Neo-Colonialism!
