28. Thank you Doctor!
You filled in a few missing pieces that help me understand what is actually going on here in Wisconsin as well as across the nation.

I had termed the situation as the "end game" for the corporatists who own the country. And yet, I can't see the end game as anything but self-destructive andultimately a loser for the monied class.

I say this because the entire corporate culture depends on a realatively affluent middle class of consumers...people who have money to buy things....The United States is the hub of consumerism and if that goes away the corporatists will have to depend on a new middle class in SE Asia or elsewhere to suck money out of.

They can't decimate the united states without decimating themselves...but that's what they're trying to do...

I must be missing something...
