Great column...one of the best I have read in a long time. Please read it.
The Entire Status Quo Is a Fraud
This can't be said politely: the entire status quo in America is a fraud.
The financial system is a fraud.
The political system is a fraud.
National Defense is a fraud.
The healthcare system is a fraud.
Higher education is a fraud.
The mainstream corporate media is a fraud.
Culture--from high to pop--is a fraud.
Need I go on?
We have come to accept fraud as standard operating practice in America, to the detriment of everything that was once worthy. why is this so?
Now that virtually every system in America is centralized or regulated by centralized hierarchies, every system in America is fraudulent and incompetent.
Truth is a dangerous poison in centralized hierarchies: anyone caught telling the truth risks a tenner in bureaucratic Siberia. (In the Soviet Gulag ,a tenner meant a ten-year sentence to a labor camp in Siberia.)

Of Two Minds - The Entire Status Quo Is a Fraud
Outstanding quote: Here's a good place to start: require every politician to wear the logos of their top 10 contributors--just like NASCAR drivers and vehicles display the logos of their sponsors.
