We have Veterans Day, or, as I like to put it, “your recruiter lied to you and society used your entire childhood to condition you to accept that, so to make up for getting screwed like that we’ll have a postal holiday and a parade for you”.
Just, you know, don’t actually expect those benefits they promised you BEFORE you signed the enlistment or induction papers, and try to keep in mind as every politician with access to a microphone is praising your decision to “serve the country”, that the renaming of the day as Veterans Day was a deliberate ploy to try to ease the sting of the use of United States soldiers, led by Doug McArthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Patton, to fire on an encampment, daily parade and daily petition to President Hoover to actually honor the promised benefits to Spanish War and World War 1 veterans.
Instead Hoover gave their pensions to Investment Bankers, like his party and their TeaBag affiliates are promising to do AGAIN, only now they’ve got Social Security to give to the Investment Bankers along with them.
They’ve also got enough RepubliFascists who ran under the false flag of Democracy selling your benefits to the Banksters under the equally false flag of “Bipartisanship”.
But, you’re supposed, under the agenda set by these Thieving Murdering Bastards, to remember your fallen comrades… instead of remembering your LIVING Comrades, and yourselves, and your families, who are getting bent over the Proverbial Sink and preparing to be ass-raped by the Thieves once again.
