We now live in a nation where doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the press destroys information, religions destroy morals and our banks destroy the economy – Chris Hedges

(Be patient through the 1:55 and 4:20-5:00 minute glitches. After that the video A-V goes smoothly and is well worth the watch.)

We can't thank Howard Zinn and Occupy enough for trying to make power elites afraid of citizens, reverse the corporate coup d'etat, take power back from corporations and put it back into the hands of citizens, where it belongs. Hedges reminds us that it's not our job to take power. It's our job to fight power.
