New hope in 2020
In this new year, when so many resolutions are made and then violated, it would be wise to remember what our lives have been like in the last decade. Some will bring prosperity and health every year, but for millions of people around the world, they will remain silent in the hope that they will improve next year. And they never have it.
The start of a new decade is approaching. Many want to believe that 2020 and thereafter will bring a sense of accomplishment in their daily lives. However, for millions of the world in the past 10 years, they have only continued their misery and suffering. Power has increased its influence on power. Nothing is clearer than this here in the United States. From Obama's years to Trump's first four years, the lives of too many Americans continued to diminish and were desperately waiting for the moment when things really changed.
The prospect of a 2020 presidential election, with so many balanced hopes and dreams that positive change can really be achieved. On the other hand, there are questions about the state of our democracy and our political process which have been answered to recognize that change is indeed possible. Has the oligarchic government become so strong that nothing has changed despite public reaction? Is our society so deceived that it accepts everything that comes from Washington?
When we can improve change to improve everything we don't. Do you remember Occupying Wall Street a few years ago? This is just one case where the public can force our government to make changes to serve the community. It's sad to say, that we don't take advantage of the urgency of that day. And practically everything that starts with good intentions, only dries up and is dying because we cannot stimulate the support of the masses that were and are needed to influence the changes we really need.
Considering 2008 with the last days of the Bush administration and the early days of the Obama presidency, the obsessive long arm of the government raised a bad head when it decided to ignore public protests when it demanded that the same financial institution be united and a financial disaster began which sent millions of Americans into deep recession. What Obama has done has even further strengthened the rules of the oligarchy which continue to this day.
What we experience today is the opposite of what is remembered by the press and the government. This has been through the years of Obama, millions across the country, who have experienced increasingly bad changes in their economic and financial situation. Have our societies wrongly adopted this new norm from our daily lives? Are we familiar with the fact that we cannot and cannot do anything to change our current situation?
Think for a moment about everything we must and can do to increase government accountability to all American society. Who exactly is to blame for a government that escapes the will of the public? The truth is we, American voters. We have been doing this for years and have trusted our officials to act in the best interests of all Americans. We have a sense of complacency, ignorance and apathy that allowed the United States government to develop in a place like this.
It must be remembered that 2020 is a year where we can truly make the necessary changes. There are some elected officials who still adhere to the ideals of our democratic process. Two of them are currently presidential candidates. They have amassed massive public support to bring about reforms so that they are urgently needed to improve millions of Americans in their daily lives. The biggest obstacle to achieving what really needs to be done is the existing power base, which is strongly tethered through its power to control the media and elections. In other words, to maintain the status quo.
What we had to do with the Occupy Wall Street movement many years ago was that so many attempts were made to sabotage the primaries and even elections for elite forces that would attract Trump's vote and end the oligarchic power infecting and infecting the United States democratic process. Only with joint efforts can the American public return the democratic birthright entrusted by the founders of our nation to the American public.
