Schwarzenegger's Dreams of Dictators (Read Before You Vote!)

by Democracy4All Tuesday, Nov. 08, 2005 at 12:57 PM

In case you, your friends, or your family need another reason to vote "NO" on Propositions 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, and 78, consider these quotes from power-hungry Governor Arnold:

- - - - - - - - -

"I was always dreaming about very powerful people - dictators and things like that. I was just always impressed by people who could be remembered for hundreds of years, or even, like Jesus, be for thousands of years remembered." [as spoken in the 1977 film "Pumping Iron"]

- - - - - - - - -

"My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave." [from a 1990 interview with U.S. News]

(Both quotes are from http://politicalhumor.about.com/cs/schwarzenegger/a/aa080703.htm )

And don't forget that, as www.truthout.org reported in 2003, "The Los Angeles Times, in a recent investigation of [Arnold's] finances, estimated that his fortune far exceeded $200 million. This included real estate investments and a significant ownership in Dimensional Fund Advisors, a mutual fund company in Santa Monica that manages about $40 billion." (Learn more about Arnold at http://www.truthout.org/docs_03/081903G.shtml. Learn more about Dimensional Fund Advisors--which now manages more than $80 billion internationally--at www.dfaus.com. )

Arnold and his corporatist allies want power over YOU.

Please stop the power grab. Please vote this Tuesday. Please vote "NO" on Propositions 73 - 78.

And please spread the word.
