99% Problems, and the 1% Ain't One


                                                         With Your Resident Guide to All That's Right With the World, Clint

You see this, you heard about this?  The 99%.  You might be asking yourself, who are they? How do they affect me?  Well, in “Clint”-terms, they’re the disenfranchised, the laden-backed, the down trodden… So ultimately, they’re fighting “The Man” for their rights.  Their lives aren’t terrible, but there’s always room for improvement, and the 99% is fighting for that improvement.  But in America, it’s fine. I’m cool with it. 

That makes sense… it doesn’t make sense?  Neither does this whole 99% thing.  Let’s take another look at this.

Speaking from the perspective of the 1%, I’ve got to admit that this whole “picketing” thing is a little overrated.  Peering down from my Ivory Tower to see this mockery of the American spirit is depressing.  Rather, depressing for a weaker mind. 

But It’s fine.  I’m cool with it. 

I say we stop these riots and tempertations (spelling?) and consider the 1%... the ones feeling the real pain.  Let’s take a look.

The 1% – it’s hard to make all the money and look so fly doing it.  It’s hard to keep America running and making all the decisions for the other 99%. But does the rest of the country take notice and give them a little slack?  Well, you know the answer to that:  A defiant and obnoxiously flamboyant, “hells naw”.  The 1% is burdened to a life of stress and turmoil at the hands of those they’re serving and ultimately protecting (from themselves).  I’d like to see the 99% take a look at another perspective, change their mind, and support that 1%.  Easy as that. 

And in unison, we can all say, “America, it’s fine. We’re cool with it.”


Stay tuned for a lot more ramblin’s and just a few more bamblin’s
