I said this about the Marcos family of the Philippines back in 1998


I said this about the Marcos family of the Philippines way back in 1998 in my personal blog :
[ [ Imelda Marcos of the Philippines -according to this morning's news-
has more than $800 million stashed in foreign banks. And she promised to
give it all to the poor-but only if she is elected president. Her husband,
dictator Ferdinand, died in 1989 " accused of plundering about $10 billion
from the national treasury..". ]]
You are still CHEATING the poor dear Mrs. Marcos. What you and your
" anti-communist " mate stole from the poor of your country, perhaps
weighs down on your " Catholic " conscience a little in your old age. Too
bad you can not take it ALL with you !
Like most very wealthy people the world has a right to ask you : What
did YOU ever DO to deserve it ? In the final analysis all wealth is the
product of our collective mental and physical labor. Any man or woman-
possessing one body, no matter how wonderful, and one brain, no matter how
brilliant - has no ethical claim on millions of dollars.
Deep down the fabulously wealthy -even those not legally corrupt-
know this. So they employ public relations people to show them off as
generous friends of the have-nots . Any honest government would tax their
inherently criminal wealth so much that they would think twice before
buying even a dozen pairs of expensive shoes.
There was an old woman
who could live on her shoes,
Who had so much wealth-
that a few more
she could never refuse !
I also read this morning an unusually horrible story out of Huejutla,
Mexico. A lynch mob hanged two men suspected of kidnapping four young
girls- ages 4 to 12- for the hideous purpose of selling their body
organs to some rich man in Texas.
In general that is the essence of great wealth everywhere - the
rich are cannibalizing on the poor!
Should they all perhaps fear the MOB ?
