Yup, Bolivia. I guess your response means that you think nothing like that could happen anywhere else. Is that your point?

I know quite a few of them. Two of the leading figures live near me and are friends of mine, we agree to disagree on certain points. Last year they protested about pigs being used to test body armour. I said that if I was in a hostage situation I would want to see the SWAT team come in fully protected and not in shorts and Mickey Mouse T shirts. They said that pigs had rights and should not be used. I asked which of them would volunteer to replace the pigs. The answer that I got was "there should be no need for police or armies." I asked how that situation could be achieved. The rest was silence. These people do not live in the real world.

I know you know. Is Orwell's 1984 coming true. Is the NSA trying to control us with Mass Surveillance, as a tiny group of people control most of the worlds wealth. Is capitalism coming to an end & turning into feudalism. Is there a shadow government running things behind the people we vote into office.

There are various politico-economic power groups.

I think the Democrats and the Republicans are mostly a charade to maintain the democratic delusion.

There must be other power blocs in various parts of the world. But since 9/11 I figure things must be even weirder than I thought.

Thanks for the link, I will check it out tomorrow. Dem's & Rep's are just two factions of one party "The Business Party" as Norm Chomsky would say. Dam right, on the democratic delusion.

9/11 was the start of something new. They let it happen & used it to attack Iraq. Which was the goal of the Bush administration pre-9/11.

I am not clowning you. I don't have to, You are a self made man. Own it. Don't project your clown-ness.

You are stuck with the fact you cannot point out where Black water is controlling anything after YOU brought Black water into the discussion.

I doubt the facts I give you will matter much anyway. You are kinda in your own special place. I think I will just leave you stuck wondering.

It is not who, it is what runs the world.

And the answer is concentrations of wealth and influence, or oligarchy. If we are headed to some sort of hybrid "neo-feudalism" and corporatism system of economy it will be based on layering of wealth that transcends both national lines and government types. In some ways we are already there.

It is not as much about shadow governments and conspiracy theories, as much as it is about the natural movement of wealth and power into smaller percentages of the population. Of which is historically backed up across just about every society type we can research going back to just after tribalism.

To be completely fair, in modern societies no matter if you have market leaning economic models or planned leaning economic models you still inherently end up with wealth and power collection over the long term into the hands of the few. It is almost unavoidable as a result of looking to private holdings of wealth as a means of economic movement, or looking to governmental power as an ends to economic movement. Worse, mixed models of economics are proving beyond a doubt that you can merge with ease collections of wealth with collections of power and formulate a modern day aristocracy.

Bankers and Hedge Fund managers. They who control the money and finance markets, control the world.

It's not Corporations as the memes so desperately push on the uninformed, and it's not the so called "rich elites", unless you are referring to the select few "rich elite" bankers/hedge fund managers.

A few trades here or there, some funding or interest rate changes there, and the World shudders to their control. It's always about the money.

California traditionally doesn't have basements in their houses.

My house was built it 1962 so has a rudimentary bomb shelter. Makes a great wine cellar and storage.

Inverted Totalitarianism | The Nation

The war on Iraq has so monopolized public attention as to obscure the regime change taking place in the Homeland. We may have invaded Iraq to bring in democracy and bring down a totalitarian regime, but in the process our own system may be moving closer to the latter and further weakening the former. The change has been intimated by the sudden popularity of two political terms rarely applied earlier to the American political system. “Empire” and “superpower” both suggest that a new system of power, concentrated and expansive, has come into existence and supplanted the old terms. “Empire” and “superpower” accurately symbolize the projection of American power abroad, but for that reason they obscure the internal consequences. Consider how odd it would sound if we were to refer to “the Constitution of the American Empire” or “superpower democracy.” The reason they ring false is that “constitution” signifies limitations on power, while “democracy” commonly refers to the active involvement of citizens with their government and the responsiveness of government to its citizens. For their part, “empire” and “superpower” stand for the surpassing of limits and the dwarfing of the citizenry.


The increasing power of the state and the declining power of institutions intended to control it has been in the making for some time. The party system is a notorious example. The Republicans have emerged as a unique phenomenon in American history of a fervently doctrinal party, zealous, ruthless, antidemocratic and boasting a near majority. As Republicans have become more ideologically intolerant, the Democrats have shrugged off the liberal label and their critical reform-minded constituencies to embrace centrism and footnote the end of ideology. In ceasing to be a genuine opposition party the Democrats have smoothed the road to power of a party more than eager to use it to promote empire abroad and corporate power at home. Bear in mind that a ruthless, ideologically driven party with a mass base was a crucial element in all of the twentieth-century regimes seeking total power.
