(14,489 posts)That is, the slow but exponentially worsening inequality of income and asset distribution worldwide that allows the wealthiest and most psychopathic individuals to:
* buy control of entire local, state and national governments,
* buy control of a large percentage of news and social media around the globe, and
* buy or control ownership of vast amounts of our planet's land and other fixed assets, and natural resources.
If they did not own or control those things, the items in David's list would never have happened, including the election of tRump.
He's listed effects, not causes. I do credit him for recognizing the fundamental cause in some of his publications.
Further, he fails to mention that this exponentially worsening inequality is happening coincidentally with a second elephant in our room: global climate change.
His writings have exposure to some global elite. Let's see what he does in the future to help correct this extremely serious issue.
KY rant done.....
