THE BAZZO MANIFESTO

RECENTNLY I HAD SOME VERY GOOD FRIENDS OF MINE WHOSE OPINION

I GREATLY RESPECT ASK WHY I DO THIS? THEY TELL ME I AM WASTING

MY TIME NOTHING WILL CHANGE. I DO THIS BECAUSE I BELIEVE THEM TO

BE WRONG. THAT KIND OF THINKING IS WHAT THE POWERS THAT BE IN

GOVT. AND THE MEDIA ENCOURAGE. WHAT I BELIVE TO BE THE ROSSETTA

STONE OF POWER, IS THAT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO HAVE IS FREE ACCESS

TO INFORMATION AND OPINION WHICH THEY DON'T CONTROL.

EVEN THE MEDIA WANT TO CONTROL WHAT YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH YOU

KNOW AND WHEN YOU SHOULD KNOW IT. WHAT THEY WANT YOU IS TO BE SO

FUSTRATED AND HELPLESS THAT YOU WON'T DO ANYTHING, EVEN VOTE,

UNLESS THEY TELL YOU WHO TO VOTE FOR, SO THOSE IN POWER CAN RETIAN IT.

AFTER ALL, THAT'S WHAT POWER IS ALL ABOUT, THE GROWTH AND RETENTION

OF IT. THE MEDIA, WHICH OPERATES ON A FOR PROFIT BASIS CAN BE

PREASURED TO COVER WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW BY YOUR ABILTY TO CONTACT

THEM VIA LETTERS AND E-MAIL AND LET THEM KNOW WHERE TO DIRCT THEIR

RESOURCES FOR YOUR BENEFIT OR ELSE YOU WON'T BUY THEIR PRODUCT.

THERE- BYE THEY CAN'T SELL ADVERTISING. BOYCOTTING ADVERTISERS WON'T

WORK AS WELL AS BOYCOTTING THE PAPER. ALSO REMEMBER THERE ARE MORE

VOTERS THAN SPECIAL INTERESTS. MORE VOTERS THAN CONTRIBUTORS.

IT IS YOUR VOTE THEY NEED MORE THEN MONEY, WITHOUT YOUR VOTE

THE CANNOT STAY IN OFFICE. THIS IS WHY I AND OTHER BLOGGERS EXIST.

TO GIVE YOU INFORMATION WHEN YOU WANT IT, NOT WHEN THEY DEEM

YOU SHOULD HAVE IT. DON'T LET THEM FOOL YOU WITH THE CANARD THAT

YOU WILL ONLY LOOK FOR WHAT YOU WANT TO RE-ENFORCE YOUR PREDJUSES.

WHEN THEY DO IT, IT IS TO EXPAND THEIR KNOWLEDGE, WHEN YOU DO IT,

IT FOR YOUR PREDJUCE. BULL....YOU ARE ALSO EXPANDING YOUR KNOWLEDGE.

A BAZZOISM: AN EDUCATED AND ACTIVE CONSTITUANT IS THE BEST VOTER.

BELIEVE IT...DON'T FORGET IT...IT IS WHAT PEOPLE IN POWER FEAR MOST.
