Corollary to SomeOfHowThePoorIsKilledByTheSystems2012
ThePracticalitiesOfFoodDistribution2012 and even back to
a year ago's HippieClownCamp2011 and

plus Elections and some other circus coming to town
stuff going on...
Body
So starting with Latino community's likely Catholic
Operating System, of the culture, which I don't
claim to understand, but have some growing
exposure and awareness to...
Catholic workers, basically missionaries, at times,
similar Romney's Mormon/ LDS (see MormonTemple20101230
for the contrasting holiday lights and beauty of Disney on the Beltway,
as some might call it) have some internal religious
drive or code or seem to think things should be a certain
way, even if other people don't have that belief system,
which is generally good for tackling difficult problems,
such as poverty, sickness, death and grieving,
Mother Theresa like popularity, probably not her
self promotion, maybe the church's organized religions
sainthood system, and idolatry?
it seems as if it's, at least locally about the provider(s)
instead of those they have served or are to be serving,
self serving and egotistical to have others as their
servants, unpaid conscripts in the case of
ThePracticalitiesOfFoodDistribution2012
now going on 3 months, of taking out recycling,
and trash, bringing personal computers for kids,
and filling my long waiting time, somehow taking
aorund 5 hours time, setup and waiting before staff shows
up maybe two hours, then the loading time,without a
dolly/ hand cart, and then hours more after for others
to go through and kids disburse...
Two of the three kid computers I have brought
have been have been damaged or destroyed
and the OLPC XO 1's are rare in the states
and difficult to find parts for,
either salvage by eBay, or local repair centers,
currently inactive, or new $40 + $5 shipping
for a keyboard after keys were ripped off,
possibly by the increasingly nasty provider,
when buying an XO 1 used was personally
obtained at $30 and the screen quickly went
to having contrast problems,
a $85 plus $5 shipping problem even is repairs
are figured out from online tutorials, videos and
just mucking around with seemingly inexpensive
but really expensive out of pocket and rare
items...
Broken XOs aside, my keychain was broken
and a whistle thrown on the ground,
a nastiness probably intended to get me to leave,
or just meanness, likely against any general
human rights, which seem to be absent,
and likely sadistic people will try using what
I publish here as further ways to fuck with me,
figuratively instead of literally...
There is no grievance policy, the slums, and lords
have no masters, or peasants have no rights
in this abusive world we find ourselves in,
seems like a judge should sentence the
providers, administrators and self appointed
demigods to live with the mice/ rats,
bugs, gangs, noise, crowding, parking issues,
and other problems until it's cleaned up...
Unlike Peace Corps workers Americorps
workers live in the surrounding area, basically
suburbs or the inner city issues, but not in the same
community as those they are supposed to serve...
While I find it helpful to get away, I don't think
people know what it's like to have noise through
the night and then expected to be cheerful,
positive and upbeat in the midst of
oppression, abuse, and neglect
("there are bugs in the food",
me: who is doing something about that?
and later you're not eating that food too,
maybe if you were, it would be better? )
The least among us have something to say,
and I'm not sure people are really listening,
The Debates, only one of which I've seen
after the fact, the parodies on SNL Saturday
Night Live more interesting to me, than the source,
primary sources, seems to be claiming, until one
hears / reads that the Romney family has
bought into the already troublesome
voting machines used in several
states and it's not publicly auditable
or similar oversight...
And how can Obama claim his opponent's
deviciveness (sp?) when he's preening the first
victory and arguing and other lawyering and
traditionally African American cultural
pastimes?
I label the religion(s), cultures and point
to stuff to describe, but at the individual level
we are all similar, playing god as a writer,
self appointed critic to the social services
system we tried transforming the MH part,
but so much of the rest of the systems
are waged against any personal and
institutional success... So much is set
up to fail, and we would all fail big,
with the collapse of the safety net,
financial systems, and general leadership
we are likely facing and some not even facing,
during this circus time, known as elections...
The new Poll Tax is seemingly are you
capable of voting in the way the registrants,
and pollsters, election officials want you to?
I know I have more homework to do,
research and soul (or whatever other word fits)
searching to do to come to a election decision,
my usually independent stance and pseudo
journalistic objectivity needs some work,
but don't have much time and energy
given all the other abusive day to day,
seasonal and yearly crap to deal with...
Conclusion
Summary of experience or similar
Just under 1 month to Thanksgiving
and 2 months to Xmas, we wonder why
people are getting stress, clocks change,
season stresses, Halloween, Elections,
and other stuff, personal and otherwise,
is feeling like being toyed with and
experience tells me the poor are
abused by politics, probably much
more than the general population,
as some try to play god with
the poor, sick and disabled,
such as myself...
Discussion
A place for feedback on the page presented
Domination, political, personal, religious/spiritual,
is just another form of evil, but people
doing it seem to be blind to it...
What are you doing and not doing that keeps
humility, serenity and balance in these trying times?
