War is rooted in empires robbing resources and geographical positions. Bechtel was behind the CIA coup in Iran back in the 5o's and made billions in the decades they were there. Today very little PR is required and absolutely no evidence entertained. The media dictates a lie enough times it is embedded and to question it is to be labeled a conspiracy addict since the lie promulgates that everything is an accident. Naomi is a penetrating voice.

FDR used the Great ... ( 1 year ago by davidmesaaz)
FDR used the Great Depression as a reason to pass his New Deal reforms. Many reforms that had stalled in congress for at least 25 years. But no one said that because FDR used a diaster to his advantage that the New Deal was undemocratic.

How was New Deal undemocratic? IS government helping people out and providing services to its citizens undemocratic? If so then privatize fire departments and police forces? Is that what you want, you right wing retard?

The economic ... ( 1 year ago by IgorDraskovic)
The economic depression of the 1920's, which was a global phenomenon, was not triggered by any ones intervention. What she is talking about is the disruption of political and economic systems by capitalist nations for the sake of integrating the world into their sphere of economic dominance. There is little simelarity between the two.

David, stop listening to Ann Coulter. A weak mind like yours is a fragile thing. Don't let manipulating loud mouths use you like that. You can be more than a pawn but you need to start exercising your brain a bit more.

I didnt hear anything about Bechtel as a CAUSE, but maybe they benefitted. I thought it was the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co. and brittish intelligence that got that ball rolling?

Yes. It is very UNdemocratic. It violates the rule of law as written by the Constitution. The New Deal has created a nation of idiots who beg the Feds to take care of them.
I prefer freedom and liberty over that and if you think the right wing retards in Office are looking to overturn the New Deal then you are the retard. The Dems and Repubs are one in the same. Big Government Fascists and they are doing everything possible to destroy our founding principals.

He did not use it; the new deal was passed to help the poor people who were devastated by the depression, and it worked by helping citizens instead of giving profit to corporations; the opposite of the shock doctrine.

> David, stop listening to Ann Coulter. Stop being divisive this way. The person you are responding to will simply be insulted and will stop listening to you, and you won't be able to explain your point. If you're both honest and patient, you can see each other's point of view, and that's the only way you will.

Klein rhetoric is a ... ( 1 year ago by Deadbeat1000)
Klein rhetoric is a bait and switch away from Mearsheimer & Walt's thesis of the Israel Lobby influence on foreign policy. In the final analysis Klein is offering a deceitful diversion in order to distract people away from analysis the role of Zionism upon U.S society. She is just another "Israeli firster"

I would tweak the ... ( 7 months ago by prayfertrey)
I would tweak the point a little by saying that most, or at least enough, people are already childish and that trying times when they feel insecure don't make adults regress so much as cause already childish adults to clamor for security and to listen to one dimensional rhetoric from politicians. Mass compulsory schooling began creating these childish adults. John Taylor Gatto's history of school and Klein's history of disaster capitalism need to inform each other...
I enjoyed the ... ( 2 months ago by Naraphim)
I enjoyed the analysis. (However, I would caution against one taking the concept of regression literally) The presentation was in the tradition of Chomsky - it provided a necessary historical context that is absent from the mainstream newstainment provided by Fox and the miopic punditry of bigmouth Bill O'Reilly.

"$850 billion just stolen from the American taxpayer and things are only getting worse"
And worse because more than $10 trillion of America's $17 trillion in retirement savings has been stolen through credit default swaps and naked short selling.
