I used to think I was too unimportant for anyone to monitor my online activity. Now I'm not so sure, because when you have enough money to hire every person in the world to do your bidding, you can monitor every person in the world and harass them. Remember the Underminer? I'm always beneath you, but nothing is beneath me. 

My one wish at this moment is that a collective uprising would take over the American populace to stop the machine that threatens to chain up our democracy--before it's too late.

Read HERE about Aristotle's ideas on inequality.

Koch/Buchanan liberals are doing this so subtly that nobody knows it's happening!

Read and watch HERE to learn about what inequality looked like in America a few years ago. Inequality is much greater now.

I'm thinking about that statement that the neoliberals know they can never win a majority. I'm not sure that is true. If you cunningly use every fear that serves your purposes and have bottomless wealth, you can produce enough propaganda to convince the masses to follow you. It's been done before, and it is happening now.
