Each subculture within society systematically tries to survive through their power and strength. Many times these levels of power are held through the use of stable and profitable financiers; the intellectual authors who dominate the political structures; and those who carry through this power usually through elected officials but in many cases around the world through the expansionist armed forces.

Military expansion is seen as a route to power and strength. Throughout history militaries were created to combat other armed races ever since Genghis Khan and his legacy. The corruption lies here when power starts to reside not in the people but in the military itself. The coup d’etat committed in Honduras just recently in July 2009, of ousted President Manuel Zelaya is a firm example of a military regime attempting to assassinate a President and then forcing him to exile through no means of negotiation or an appropriate electoral process. Surely subcultures within the country have shaped the environment in Honduras today and the various interconnected ways in which one subculture’s decision and cause has affected another subculture. Zelaya attempted to reform the economic and social spheres of society from a liberalism perspective to a pro-socialist liberalism, one where the economy benefits the people and not just the economic elites. Obviously this affected the subculture of elite corporate and political leaders within that society and immediately a coup regime was formed. This regime’s vested interest is largely supported by the 10+ economic groups of financiers such as military contractors, political leaders, and religious leaders from the United States, Honduras, and other countries. On a similar realm, take for example the oil companies such as Shell and Chevron in the Niger Delta villages who have also been trying to protect their future profits and power. They have also conspired a military regime that instils enormous public fear; they suppress any public outcry and uprisings.

In turn, all public healthcare, education, and even religious services start to become exhausted to the point where the very people running the systems go corrupt. They either join or take sides with the army or fight dieing to protest and usually end up getting savagely beaten or thrown in months to jail without any fair trial. For example, the only cardinal before the Vatican in Honduras conspired with the coup leaders; he betrayed the people, the poor and has put on a military uniform. Rightful men leading their people into peaceful protests and demonstrations are publicly humiliated and murdered. Villages are burned down at an alarming rate, that the very existence of them goes undocumented and unreported like the village of Oporoza, in the Niger Delta that was burned down along with all its inhabitants. It was to erase the physical evidence of the catastrophic effects of the various oil spills and acid rain pollution. Imagine rain that falls that is toxic enough to destroy a metal roof. Imagine the rise of other such armed barbaric acts…must you ask for more proof? Illegal search warrants, civilian rights being denied, and a mere woman walking her son home from school and then hearing a shot and finding a bullet hole at the back of his head as a dark red pool flows down from his head, as his body suddenly collapses in his mom’s tightened arms. These are the subcultures within society; the subcultures of an education where there is no education after you leave the classroom. You only learn how to survive against the increased armed struggle largely funded by corporate leaders from America and corrupt politicians. These societies fall into a state of siege and where there this occurs, blood and oil start to commingle very easily; military regimes and the rise of child soldiers occurs more often; and dirty floors and gun shells start to rocket hospital windows and village shelters. The genocidal extermination of a race begins as the elite continue to profit off each dead body that is lost…
