and the otrher rug-yankings our "public servants" have perpetrated upon us, we're well on our way to glo-bull-ization and it's resultant serf-hoodization. I LOVE Chris Hedges' boldness and clarity of message. I honestly hope some unforseen "accident" doesn't befall him. How long before he's brought up on charges of incitement?

Chris's words alone ain't gonna get the job done...it's only gonna happen when there are enough of us speaking truth to power that the mass of action will MOVE and become ALIVE. The 1% have so much power and $$$, but we got the TRUTH and we need to get that truth seen by millions and millions of Americans, and thus move Public Opinion...I'm just sayin'...
