The Preperation of the Soil - the Mind.

Any good farmer knows the first thing that must take place before you plant the seed is the preparation of the soil. This enables you to plant the seed which will take root and flourish and hopefully produce the desired results you set your goal on.

In this case the preparation and soil is our minds. Yes take any situation from business, to religion, to government, to rulers, kings, tyrants, despots, tyrannical regimes, etc and even education it is all one in the same, prepare the soil for what you want to plant.
 
So now after we have seen the bling bailouts, rewards for mediocrity, failure, greed and the like and we have and continue to reward those that have and are making money off of those suffering financial hardship [fact] we hear our president switch gears to JOBS, really!!!!!
 
Now sadly what he is proposing has been around for years yet did he take action when elected and when needed to the destruction of millions of us, NO! One can argue for eons but the bottom line we all know is the rich got bailed out while we got, oh, well, ouch!
 
So he talks once again about building bridges, railroads, highways, infrastructure, really. He talks once again about Green House jobs, really. Yes and on and on and on. Well why one might ask?
 
Ok, 2010, got it - election time!
 
Yes he has to shift gears so he is preparing the soil as you will note and in my opinion the marketing press,  oh, I'm sorry they're journalists just reporting the news as it develops, really, will make the way clear and turn the soil for him.  All over the place you hear jobs, jobs, jobs. Yes for who? Once again one in six getting those jobs non Americans according to the press. Yes and who gets the good jobs, the decent jobs, the well paying jobs? The answer all across this land, foreigners, who buy those short sale and foreclosed homes after Americans are kicked out at the Sheriffs and Judges hand. Yes they're only doing their jobs. And when we talk about JOBS we talk about needed investment capital , by who? You got it foreign money. Yes lesser paying, fewer benefits, work longer and harder, fact. Oh well we must accept to take less. Yes, even while in one breath they tell us the virtues of our nation. Confused, well you shouldn't be it is all right there to find if you look.
 
So the preparation of the soil, your mind, will lead to acceptance. The seed is the repeated speaking about it until the seed takes hold. Then regardless if fact or not you will nod your head. Regardless of reality, truth you will nod your head and approve. It is what it is and you won't ever accept it, that is you who never look into, question, evaluate, research.
 
So as noted in the first paragraph, first prepare the soil. report how unemployment is declining, job creation gone up, the economy showing signs of recovery then keep the seed embedded, water it, fertilize it and yes it will grow. Oh, and choke off the weeds that stifle that growth. Yes who is that? Well anyone with a different set of figures, perspective, point of view, facts.
 
Yes and come 2010 you will hear about job increases and how well the economy is moving. Not great but getting better. Yes it will become a fact and the seed will have been planted on fertile soil. Yes and never forget they better put people back to work. Why, someone has to pay for those trillions and you can expect it will be you.
