Paul Jay is CEO and Senior Editor of TRNN, lives in Baltimore, and he's White. He thinks elite whites are not fit to lead, and that explains the roots of Baltimore's looting problem:
Not Fit to Rule
"Why? Capitalism has lost its dynamism. Far too few people own far too much. And that's the root of the problem. The class that owns so much, that wields so much political power, is not capable of effecting policy in the interests of the majority.
"The top 20 percent are not even capable of effecting public policy in the interest of their own class. They can't deal with systemic threats to the very system that made them wealthy. Nothing makes this more obvious than their inability to regulate the big banks or deal with regulating carbon emissions.
"They are fractured: different billionaires and pools of capital--and the political class that represents them--bicker and claw for even more money and power..."
"Our ruling elites are dysfunctional and not fit to rule.
"They own a news media that makes it all seem so reasonable, so humane, so inevitable.
"Perhaps they even believe it."
