Jamaicas' Gulliver Awakens by Wayne

     I am not surprised at all to witness the chaos that reigned about the recent gas price increases, I am only surprised what took us so long, and as usual we did it for the wrong cause. For the wicked winds that swept through the length and breadth of our country were sown many years ago before independence.
     Our great founders often did not win the public over with arguments of liberty,equality, and justice for all, but with the promise of free chicken,rice and flour, and a "Dutch " pot to cook in. Practices which are continued to this day with a modern twist, cheaper cars,free jobs and guns to "deal wid" your bad neighbors.
      We as a people have accepted all that they gave and "surprise" we become dependent on the government for all we get, as ignorant of the intent and toll we pay by accepting gifts from the "two faced Vampires". Ignorant we began and ignorant largely we stay, because it is far too easy to pull the wool over an ignorant dependent man ,by these ultimate conmen. They must laugh all the way to bank.
