America isn’t a country, it’s a corporation.
This isn’t a place where you can raise a family and live a happy life, especially if you’re average.
This country was built for the 1%. The other 99% are essentially wage slaves, and your job is the plantation.

GUILTY VERDICT: In Oregon, rainwater falling on your own land doesn’t actually belong to you.
Gary Harrington built 3 reservoirs on his 170-acre property to collect rainwater & snowmelt for fire protection.
The state demanded he drain every drop. “All water belongs to us.”
He refused.
They hit him with 9 misdemeanors, jailed him for 30 days, and fined him more than $15,000.
This is government claiming ownership of the sky.
Community note
Additional context: This is a 2012 case. Gary Harrington was fined $1,500 (not $15,000) and sentenced to 30 days in jail for creating unauthorized large reservoirs by damming creeks. Oregon allows small-scale rainwater collection from roofs without permits. reason.com/2012/07/31/bri… snopes.com/fact-check/man… oregon.gov/bcd/documents/

We’ve accepted constant surveillance as the cost of being online.
It’s time for a shift in how we think —
a shift toward Rational Privacy.
Because you should decide what gets shared, with whom, and when.
Supposedly this image was taken in 1813 and is of the City of Krakow in southern Poland near the Czech border.
Some serious flooding going on! Also, who took the picture? 🤔
