A corporate aristocracy wields unprecedented & undue influence over our govt. Health insurance, Big Pharma, Big Ag, gun manufacturing, food, chemical, oil and gas, defense contracting companies & banks are like old landed gentry & the American people a new brand of economic serf

I wouldn't associate Corporations with Aristocracy - there is no Noblesse Oblige. The singular Corporate Goal is Profit at all Cost, regardless of the Human or Environmental Damage.

Teddy Roosevelt arguably the Greatest US President is turning in his grave with the unraveling of our country..... allowing the Corporations and Wall Street to run the country buying off politicians while the majority gets screwed over... like blind sheep we follow ..........

We used to call it a ruling class until the ruling class deoperationalized class theory and made it unfashionable to discuss it. Of course this comes on the heels of putting people in jail for years simply for wanting to end the class system altogether.

When did you awaken to this fact? In other words, when did the veil of illusion diminish for you? For me, it was seeing you in the debates then researching. Wow. I was asleep. When did the veil thin and disappear for you? Youโ€™re so like.... awake. Scary smart ๐Ÿคฏ Thank you.

Is it time to begin conversations on what our culture could look like without dependence on money? Is that a way of thinking too far outside the box? Just ponder sometimes...does our whole planetary construct need an overhaul? Big picture stuff, I dunno.
