the tendency of rich and powerful people to conspire to ensure they stay that way at the expense of the chumps is a natural consequence of evolution. it's called fascism, but it is 'amercanism' and many other names, for each language.
the chumps can not resist effectively for lack of education, and free time. poverty concentrates the mind on local concerns.
que sera, sera. but unfortunately, elite rule is fundamentally selfish and uninterested in public good, which is leading us towards environment collapse, perhaps even extinction.
homer sap 'solves' this condition by enlisting poor people into protective armies for the rich. money buys laws for awhile, buys gunmen when laws fail. the process has been visible in usa, with the 'professionalization' of the military, creating an instrument of imperial aggression immediately, and a potential instrument of national control. this process is visible also in the 'militarization' of police forces.
unhappy with this evolutionary course?
then you must act.
but first, you must imagine a different path for the nation, and a means of achieving the goal.
no voices, no ideas, no visible rejection of the status quo, in the usa. so yer screwed.
