45. KILL THE GRUMPS!

"Kill the Grumps!*"

That was a chant in a sci fi teevee show back in maybe the
late '60's, '70's, that my brother Ed told me about once. We
were then in our 20's, 30's and thought it amusing!

The plot: When all else fails, when you're out of $ and
recources are spread too thin, there's one thing left to
do:

KILL THE GRUMPS!!

Somehow, I've never forgotten that chant; I never saw the
actual show.

But, now, whoa! I see it was prescient like so many other
far-out, unthinkable future dystopias conceived by the
writers and film makers! 

It's starting...
The rhetoric is being devised, the propaganda, the death
camps (Oh, ha, ha, ha, you rednecks you), the triage in
medical care, the taxes on "cadillac policies"..they are
preparing the low infos.

Remember,  "Our strength is our diversity." Remember?
Repeated ad infinitum... Discontinued after 9/11 to be
reinstated in other words.

Over and over and over Big Brother chants it's latest evil
until it seem to many like plain truth.

KILL THE GRUMPS!!! 

Out it! Be on the lookout for it, dear fellow Grumps! Expose
it when you hear/read/see it.  Email me and others when
you notice an instance. Pay attention! The email I'm
referring to is below.
