Political Ponzi Schemes & Willing Victims:

Persons shouldn’t act surprised when Preachers, Lawyers and Politicians are featured as the stars of Ponzi Schemes and American Greed because History has always shown Religion as the most wicked, Politicians as the most anti-human and the Courts as the worst dispensers of Justice… While these Systems promise great hope they often deliver the root causes of Society’s problems.

Thus, from the beginning Freed Slaves have been the main targets and Police was created to have the Poor protect the wealth of the Rich from the Poor by the Poor… We were so well programmed not to question Authority that although we see it and know it’s wrong we would rather continue in denial where we die before we live and Children are far worse off than their Parents.

We have become willing victims of Systems that are actually created to be fueled by Greed and Corruption so it is no accident that Laws are made by and for the Rich and Powerful to suppress the Weak and Poor… Most Police Forces take their Marching Orders from these Systems and often see themselves as doing honourable work in the overt and covert practice of racism and victimisation.

This is not new but thanks to modern technology we are seeing this well-kept secret of White Police harassing and killing unarmed Black Men in Ferguson, New York, Florida, South Carolina and Detroit but this mentality of aggressive authority and Police Victimisation based on suspicion can also exist in Trinidad, Jamaica or even here at home and as easily be practiced by Blacks on Blacks.

We know this can never be right but we are bred to live in fear and suffer in silence so it is natural for us to dread the Police, Courts and Judges who regard themselves as ‘Gods of Power’ where Procedures are more important than People, valid information is routinely discarded unless submitted on special Forms and only their time matters while all others operate at their convenience.

Token Laws & Real Victims of Youth:

Meanwhile, some leaders seek to fool us by creating token Laws that promise to hold Preachers, Lawyers and Politicians accountable for their wrongs; however, History and Commonsense show that even when such Persons are charged – unless scapegoated - they have their ways and means to render this process impotent due to their accusers being seen as guilty of the same things.

We are in desperate need of proper changes but the answer is not by making more toothless laws or enforcing 700-years old Laws that were designed to frustrate and oppress the weak and poor… On the contrary we need to remove these bad and outdated laws that continue to cripple our Children and stifle our people so there will be far less persecutions and prosecutions and more Fairness and Justice.

There is no reason why after ‘Seven Thousand Years of Leaders applying rituals of the past to destroy the futures of the Children that we cannot correct such shortcomings in a Universe that operates on the ‘click of a mouse’… Think about it – If Farmers and Doctors regarded time like the Justice System the whole World would starve and Patients die long before receiving Medical Care.

This is not to diminish the Authority of the Court but to make it more fair, just and beneficial to all mankind considering how often we hear of situations where innocent Black Young Men are taken from their warm Beds and charged with Crimes they did not commit… Because these innocent Children trusted the integrity of the Judiciary they employed Lawyers for their easy defense.

However, after months of delays where every appearance and postponement meant paying Lawyers and missing Work, eventually, some may have been declared guilty, lost their jobs, had to pay Lawyers for losing and were sent to Prison where they learnt to be real Criminals… Conversely, some of those found not guilty also lost their jobs and had to pay Lawyers for being innocent.

Those who can’t afford Lawyers are even worse off and while such practices can never be right they have been handed down from Slavery and Colonialism to be accepted by us without question or hesitation… Our Children have stagnated under these wrong and inhumane conditions and I am socially beaten and threatened with prison for bringing you Basic Truth and overdue Enlightenment.

This has never been easy but we cannot afford to give up and this is why, even as we continue working from the outside you need me positioned inside in order to overcome those dangers that can only be conquered from within the Body… This battle for our survival affects every system and the threats are Legion with their weapon of oppression based in the Law… Corinthians 15:56.

Because of Greed and Corruption we suffer grave consequences when our Monies and Resources are squandered by leaders and Government’s misdirected solution is to overtly and covertly place the burdens on the backs of the People by increasing Taxes and Fees on Work Permits, Utilities, Ports and Customs, Public Health Care and even Marriage Licenses - Our People are becoming  distressed.

We are not lazy but it seems the harder we try the more they are suppressed and even the Mom and Pop shops or Vendors Spots we create in order to survive are being displaced by Big Boys and Foreign Sharks imported by our leaders… We are just another Prick from the same Pen where the Big Nations who stole Africa’s Resources and Opportunities now leave her People to drown at sea.

Giving the Children a Chance:

Hope is fading fast and while some call it coincidence, there is no doubt that since Government increased Medical Fees our People are getting sicker and dying more – Doc may call it Hypertension but we see the Stress and Depression in the Eyes of our Youth when they look for a Future and see nothing but trials, tribulations and impossible challenges of a life that gets worse and worse. 

Some die before enjoying their Social Security Benefits and those still alive have their own Social Security Fund at severe risk from Government’s borrowing… We have seen Global examples of damage done by Governments’ abuse of Social Security Funds and while it is difficult for Board Members to say No! to Government Loans - they appointed them – they must learn to do so.

For too long Bad Leaders have avoided being accountable for their own stupidity by choosing to place their mistakes on the backs of the Children; however, their Social Security should never be a Piggy Bank for the political abuse, waste and willful mistakes of leaders – Rather, Social Security Surpluses should be used to reduce the Premiums or increase the Benefits for these contributors.

No wonder it is believed that NHIS was also envisioned as another Ponzi Scheme and I thank you for helping to slow down that monster but the threat of Snap Elections is still real and the progress we made can be quickly changed if we accept ourselves as God-given Victims and elect Leaders who make it their Political Ambition to sell us into Bondage even before the voting begins.

We must respect ourselves - We were not created as Footstools or Idiots for target practice and as BVI Voters we have a special opportunity to change this perception and give our Children a Chance… You have 5 Choices and Chances to decide whether or not to make that difference in the lives of your Children by making me one of those Choices as their beacon of Fairness and Justice. 

PS:… I will continue addressing some of your Questions & Comments on Live BVP Radio Programmes

    Totally agree!

    Now we know why the institutions continue to support racism and oppression.

    The plantation system seems to be alive and well in the 21st century. We might have preachers, politicians, teacher, etc who are Black (BLACK like me).but,in some ways, they are the modern slave drivers.
