How do we avert the inevitable Plutocrat driven civil war?

The puppeteers are good. Their planning document, the one very few have heard about, let alone read, laid out the path. And, man, is the Powell Memo working! (You know, the memo written in 1971 by future Supreme Court justice Lewis Powell calling out corporate America.)

When extraction and free labor were needed from just a few to keep the economy going, a brutal form of slavery on "the other," primarily Africans, was functional at a minimal cost. But the beast needs to be continually fed exponentially. That means the pool must increase. Guess what, most of you were force-welcomed.

External chains and brutality would not work now on the majority. After all, in the primordial stages of this economic system, the pecking order was clear: slavery and the remnants thereof left the majority population with a semblance of having access to success.
