Okay
okay it wasn't a coup. That's the wrong word. Election 2000 had all the
markings of a hostile takeover. And now we have a CEO instead of
a President!
So the constant assault is on the word "PUBLIC." Their solution is
to
privatize everything ---schools, space, land, energy, social security,
the
airwaves. Because when government subcontracts our public resources
out
to the lowest bidder, someone with a lot of money makes a lot more.
And then
the government becomes one with these private corporations through
lobbying,
subsidy, and regulation. And presto you have the corporate state,
which was
Mussolini's definition of fascism. If you want "less private more
public" your
representatives can help. They can end corporate freeloading off
of
our public resources. |
