Playing the Wealth Card

The sheer chutzpah of these billionaire technofascists who assume it’s their right to take over the country, destroy our government, and financially terrorize millions is simply beyond me. I find it a little strange, though not surprising, that we rarely heard the words “radical libertarianism” in the mainstream media before the election, and as far as I know, we still aren’t hearing much about the extremist ideology behind the current chaos. Not that there hasn’t been excellent reporting elsewhere. I highly recommend reading Wired magazine these days — in particular, this article about plans for corporate-controlled cities operating outside the scope of pesky federal regulations like environmental protection and worker rights. These guys belong to a pseudoscientific cult that conveniently places them at the top and devalues the lives of everyone else.
