Go USA!

Just a reminder:

The Declaration is the document from our history that sets the goal of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" for our nation. It states in part, "When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security."
And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor."

And just imagine if old Donny Trump and the tycoons and the throw-away rich mutually pledged to each other their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor.
SACRED HONOR?!

what figures the "same object" that any of these structures designing to reduce us under despotism, [see: rise of plutocracy, see: death of the nationstate, birth of shiny new cancers.] and figuring pursued said "same object" crawling around as in- utero beginnings of the mysterious cockroach empire. what were the framers talking about, and where did they get this weirdness of divine protection? also, what the hell 'sacred' are we speaking of here? these men were crazed radicals, overly well-read, funny looking, cultish and heavily out there. rattle the cage. still a cage, words like 'sacred' or 'duty'
jangle like one-eyed canaries. the mysterious cockroach empire hides the machine in it's family tree.
so far so good.
p.s. what happens to the reels of isabel creations that show up around here with hints around the eyes and not a word spoken?
