Spirit1776, I agree with you 100%.

I hope no one associated with the movement was the cause of any trouble. I also hope that every person involved in the movement, and all their relatives and friends, are or will be registered to vote. The discontent I see today is very much like what the US experienced in the early 1900s. The gap between the haves and the have nots was enormous; corporate interests controlled much of the economy, and more than a few politicians were likewise under the interests' control. But there was also a growing number of media--print media, then--stories that thoroughly researched then exposed the controls, the graft, the corruption, and how too many in local and state politics were either part of the problem or powerless to really change things. It would not be a clean sweep, but enough people got concerned and mad enough to push changes and reforms through the opposition, at the local, state and federal levels. Public faith in government was restored to a fair degree. Ground got lost in the 1920s, but the trauma of the Depression revived the need, the desperation for change. More selfish interests and agendas have again resurfaced; whether they know it or not, members of the Tea Party aid and abet goals that will hurt a lot of people. Many of them are sincere, but I and many other citizens believe they are wrong. We, the People--by the way, the first three words of the US Constitution--need, deserve and must have movements like OWS, if for no other reason than to make sure one point of view alone never dominates. If the OWS and like movements will result in real reform, and FOR the people, all the better.

While we are not necessarily conspiracy adherents, we can't help but see obvious patterns emerging to some of our governments focus and draw logical conclusions. Toward that end, our main purpose is to reveal the motive and process of these changes and to cause the alarm and healthy rational fear and skepticism needed to stop the socialism and the corrosive thinking behind it before it ruins our country.

We have observed that the conversion of the public consensus from dependency on God, self and family to dependency upon socialism is accomplished through incrementally rearranging how Americans view themselves and their place in the world. This systematic approach succeeds as long as it is done step by step via skillful propaganda in conjunction with an effectual dumbing down of the American people; these changes are accepted when done slowly.

America is also a land of plenty of mindless indifference towards the useful idiots and where their misguided votes are taking all of us. If this was of no consequence to the rest of America we could laugh at the idiocy; however, much in every way, we are impacted. Therefore, this site was created to identify the idiocy, explain it and seek to end it. We hope we can awaken some people to their errant ways by challenging them to see how arrogant politicians exploit their inadvertent "idiocy" and as a result, motivate them to reject the idiot's role once and for all. http://usefulidiots.com/

Useful idiots is a name that no group of people would like to be called. It is however, what most Americans are relied upon to be by the powers that be. When the voting segment of our country fails to vote to stay free and instead allows itself to fall for the same old word games and mind manipulation, it sadly earns the title of useful idiots. In contemporary America, too many Americans are naive about their political "system" and its politicians. Therefore, we are as a people, where we are, because we allow it to be so. You see, America is a land of plenty, plenty of food, plenty of money, plenty of gods, plenty of corrupt politicians and alas, plenty of useful idiots that repetively vote for them. http://usefulidiots.com/
