Based on the generational models we have to examine now of the systems that were implemented under the pretext of helping the downward spiral a growing number of our brothers and sisters find themselves in, a few things become apparent.

• The systems are not designed to help uplift people, rather they are a means to entrap people into the ruts they find themselves in.

• The current systems we have send out an angry energy, infecting those within its clutches to feel hopeless and a somewhat justified sense of rage that all to often devolves into not so justifiable lashing out. Without fail, most of this lashing out creates innocent victims who were not directly responsible for the circumstances these self convinced hopeless people would blame or choose not to view with compassion. They have none to give as they are consumed in their grief and feelings of inadequacy and abandonment.

• In some ways we all shoulder some of the blame indirectly, as people tend to ignore the pain our brothers and sisters endure.

I believe so many ignore the pain for a few reasons, the largest two being fear and feeling impotent to do anything about it on any type of scale that would see a measurable result other than in that second. Many understand they are not far from that precipice that could see them in the same dire living situations as those who have lost hope, and ignoring the plight helps them avoid examining how close they are to being in the same position.

This can only be solved if common men and women who are not seeking to exploit others decide we do have the power to affect this. That the minuscule actions taken here and there over time can build into something large, especially if a majority of us take this upon ourselves to care.

There are many who are probably damaged to a point there will be no helping them out of their rage and patterns of understanding that have been shaped by decades of real experience for them. But the ones who can overcome that are worth the effort to sift through the pain.

Those who would rule us, using their fake programs pretending to care lose their grip over us if we are all self sufficient and happy. They will never provide a solution that would end their rule.
