We Are All Victims!

Victim Right’s?

I spent a great deal of time trying to understand when a victim is a victim as defined by local, state and federal laws. The definition is elusive and I believe victims of crime far outnumber any other class of people in the United States.

We are victims of a political machine in the White House that has created carnage to our workforce resulting in thousands – millions of people to loose jobs and face financial devastation. Facing hyper-inflation, we will all be victims of the economy and people living on fixed incomes, like the elderly will be faced with very tough choices – more victims. The list of victims continues through the civil and criminal courts and I am not talking about the person who was harmed by another, it is the harm that was placed upon them through the lack of proper investigation and justice for the harm they endured and the emotional and mental pain of never seeing their day in court. The list continues through the corrupt court system riddled with a “good-old-boy” network and favoritism that promotes the stealing of patients, huge fees paid for bankruptcy work at the expense of the debtors, forced foreclosures by greedy bankers and back door deals with the insurance and pharmaceutical industries.

We are all victims of insidious crimes and it is affecting our life every day. Why is no one standing up for their individual rights! Each and every one of us is a victim and we have rights to stand up and be heard. Have we become so complacent that we, as Americans, have just come to accept this as “our lot in life”?

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
