And Hedges lays it all out there, and most of us know it but are afraid to come out and say it.
Some find it too depressing so they just can't consider that the game is rigged.

I think somewhat like Occupy, that the only way out of this is to come out of them...you know like fire them in their position of controlling us by giving us bread and circus...stop buying their shit and shining their shoes...form an alternative life that separates you from the corporate consumer wage slave life...a very tall order.

It will be up to the young to accomplish it, and it must be done, and we must support it.
