corporatist monstrosity that has caused such problems as "campaign contributions and lobbying by the financial sector contribute to the meltdown on Wall Street".
Progressives must make a clear choice as to which fork in the proverbial road they must take: corporatism or a road that embraces higher values than consumerism, unsustainable growth, technology for the sake of being clever (as opposed to intelligent), a system whose ethos is founded upon philosophy (who we are and what we are about) -as opposed to the trinity of business ("making" money", sports, and "entertainment" (no, Brittney Spears is NOT news!). Only by mandating philosophy and critical thinking at ALL levels of public school curriculums will be we begin to see the emergence of a more critically thougthful population that can readily see through the transparency of the scams that corporatism perpetrates upon an otherwise unsuspecting working class.
To those who have their collective act together: Organize! To the streets! Remember 1776! Taxation without representation. Remember Y-O-U are paying taxes to bail out the gangster that have stolen from Y-O-U. Does this makes sense? There is a reason why the second amendment to the U.S. Constitution exists! It is not only for the reactionary. Demand justice for the corporatist gangsters that have looted our dear country! Democratic socialism, now!
