The Addiction To Win: Essays To Bheekri

By Frank Morano

What are the characteristics of power today? Who is deciding for us our morality and ethics? Why do our political systems continually produce the same disappointing results? We strive to be working on human equality, race relations, helping the poor and sick, and yet we never actually achieve gratification. Meanwhile, our "leaders" seem to be toiling diligently at destroying our cultural ethnicities and traditions. How can our logical reasoning perform within the confines of particular discriminatory prejudices while being constantly refocused against those deemed inferior, according to the political trend of the moment? Currently we pride ourselves on our courageousness and furious self-independence while we hide in our homes watching the media portray our society as mostly rapists, murderers, cheaters, and thieves with every sort of depravity. This contrived reflection of us allows those in power to consider our group to be made up of mostly ignorant dishonest miscreants. And since they have bartered away our occupations, trades and livelihoods, they then consider us to be lazy and deceptive, seeking their undeserved assistance. Same as it ever was Barbara Tuchman wrote years ago, "History never repeats itself. Man always does". Why does this happen? Because of our Addiction To Win.
