FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Author Issues Wake-up Call: Swine Flu Latest Example
September
30, 2009, Buffalo, NY and Denver, CO—Outskirts Press author Robert James Karpie announces
the release of his second book, Social
Security: Immaculate Deception—A National Disgrace. The novel is about
four old men in a nursing home who, sick of the neglect and abuse, conspire to
overthrow the system. They end up suing the
state, and the owners of the nursing home, and then purchasing the home
themselves. They change its name to “Social Security,” and the rest is a
fun-loving, adventurous romp. But the underlying message is far from amusing.
Robert Karpie is issuing a wake-up call to Americans to remember the power of
the people. “It is our duty to question authority and demand answers. We
should not fear our government—they should fear us. We the people!”
Using the latest swine flu scare as an example,
Karpie urges Americans to get the facts behind what the government promotes. He
questions the government’s use of scare tactics, by labeling the spread of the
N1H1 virus an “imminent pandemic,” and reports that US government health
officials are planning to spend up to $2 billion for 160 million doses of flu
vaccine for the fall of 2009/winter of 2010. But in 1976, several elderly people
died shortly after being inoculated against a similar virus, and eventually, the
government suspended the program after inoculating 40 million people for a flu
that never came.
Historically,
government has had a tendency to hold mankind back as a whole, through
politics, religion, and science, as lobbyists corrupt morals. To add insult to
injury, it’s outrageous when much of our so-called free press—mainstream
media—steers, persuades, preaches, promotes, and instills governmental
policies via fear tactics, ridicule, disinformation, conjecture, propaganda,
and censorship by ownership as “knowledge is power.” Unfortunately, power
corrupts—and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Social Security is dramatic, provocative, a little obscene, and educational
through a historical review. It’s also funny, bittersweet, and a bit violent,
much like life itself. Bob wrote it to STIMULATE
your brain, connect the dots; so to speak and make you think. Ultimately, Social
Security is but a Wake-up Call.
Frankly, the system itself is consuming the consumers. We are becoming slaves
economically as our Individual Rights
& Freedoms are cannibalized
from within by own government; an Immaculate Deception. If
the novel inspires the reader to sit up and vow to get involved, take a stand,
or demand answers, so much the better. As Robert Karpie says, “When ignorance
is ignored, stupidity is justified.”
