need it be mentioned the nature of economy was invented by satanists...?
you believe in money by choice or not...
they win...they control it...
i mean...do you think they have any sort of problem printing up some more bills in the name of country,honor and more power...?
and then controlling its release...
think now

if you really want a way to win...you simply cannot play their game...
basic fundamental...
so how are you going to not play their game...?
all you can do is go back to work until then...
and may finally it get beatin into the minds of americans of how wrong it is...
just because a country was born (like a human) doesn't gaurantee its success...
take a look at the ones who are in charge of its success
do you think they give a rats *** at the human cost
they dont care how long it takes you to succeed in life
or if the earth succeeds in staying alive
they are focused on one thing...
keeping the war machine alive and kicking
the answer to them...is using fear to control the masses
9/11 we will never forget...???
i will never forget my first reaction to 9/11
"wow, nice one guys..."

my daily commute is typically between 8-12 hours
lol
trust me i have plenty of time to sort out the full meaning of the hardwork of the american people put to tragic waste
you and your life...laughed at by severe punishment you fear from your government and its control over society...
...and their threat of torture...
dont pay your taxes...?....you are going to jail....

freedom of speech is what they gave
just like you...i took the bait

religion overtaken/created by satanistic tendencies
who else would need you convinced...?
god is simple
god creates waves (think ocean people)
the devil creates interest
if the waves aren't enough...well...i think thats his simple message...
****...i would go so far as to say the bible was created to complicate the matter...to confuse the issue...
after all...someone had to transalate it...
who in their right mind was still alive that believed in the greatest of all sources in rule and power enough to get this job done...???
you'll be hard pressed to find anyone in english power who wasn't a satanist...
have a nice day/life what not what have you planned

please notice of most importance
you and your life are separate things...
how could a government like this allow a union of basic energy to exist in its borders...
you can constantly feel its energy trying to keep you apart from your very self
let me know if you think i'm way off base
funny how everyone will only do things for money...
you probably think i'm a crazy satanist...trying to steal your mind...and cast you into a sea of hatred...
oh so different than the one you are forced to serve day in and day out
well whatever...
i guess i should be happy i live in america where i'm free to talk about the unruly enslavement of its people...
weee this is fun...choke choke choke

i can just feel the success and beauty of my future in the arms of my government silenced by the issues that should be of no man to decide...
at whatever cost

this same nation you live in...right now...wake up
what the *u*k is wrong with you people
why dont you stay home with a gun
if the chinese come to your door in your lifetime to tell you to go gather rice
you can shoot them in the face (or try) before they torcher you day in and day out by making you commute 20 ****ing minutes
guess who would be showing up at your door alot sooner than that to haul your *** to jail...???
and god forbid us getting outside to breathe this wonderful air...
or should i use the term...get our feet wet...

you're all idiots
we're all idiots

all we do is hate each other by & large
are we really going to go down in history as such worthless people amongst millions of haters...
all i sense is levels of hatred...people in separation...us & them...
constant decisions of what should happen....what we will do...
nothing ever seeming to hold a mounted and solid place as 'right'...
no plan for people who are just alive...
you cant just be alive...you have to serve...
and if you do not choose the correct way of service...you are cast....
free will...with consequences
a gaping hole left for all to fall in...if you fall...you are forsaken
if you dont fall...your a pu**y...
you do not stand a chance of acceptance
you have submitted your life to their appeal
and either way...
there is no human plan...except your luck of being born on a side of the moons fervent...
oh yay...we can all feel something now...
i guess we dont have to worry about lifes bull**** coming soon to a crabshell ***** laying next to you soon...
did i forget to mention america was born in july the sign of cancer the crab...
hard shell outside...black goo core
its claw raised up to anything in its path
cancer...the sign of the mother(ship)...
the sign of the breast...
there will be no refuting her right to a child...
oh yeah i'll touch on this...because your all so scared...i will laugh...
your whole life caught in the rapture of a nations purpose beyond your own...
its not in your control...famous last words

I would like to say that I LOVE our country, that I'm going down in history as a great American, and that I enjoy my solo 45 mile commute to work every morning.

In those cities the public trasnport systems are highly efficient.
You literally only have to wait 10 minutes for the next bus to come and 6 minutes for the next metro (electric train).
The busses here cover over 90% of the roads.

So even now ., the majority of people do not even own a car.

In the countryside true farmers obviously need vehicles , but if you live in a small town , you still might not own a car.
Short distances can be cycled and the busses do the rest.

Bikes are huge here.

Because of this even on friday noon after rush hour the air is still clear , no visible smog.!

So yeah , 40 minute comute time , but by and large , its done in shared public transport.
Yeah. I would think that the actual distance of the commute Is longer in US then in Europe (I am looking for the average distance but can't find anything).

I prefer the Albert Camus quote in all of this :

"I should like to be able to love my country and still love justice"

Now, it could be adapted for GasSavers :

"I should like to be able to love my country and still love my commute"

Or :

"I should like to be able to love my country and still love my MPG"

Hmmmmmm, maybe not the same gravitas, but you get the mileage.
