Concise, succinct, accurate analysis and assessment of the terminal prognosis for American Democracy. Far surpassing the previous Gilded Age in scope and scale, the authoritarian oligarchical regime is akin to conjoined twins of plutocracy and theocracy.

The ease of installing him, unqualified autocrats and sycophants into key positions, indicates the truly powerful had been waiting for the right moment of opportunity. I’m curious if you are convinced that traditional norms of strikes, boycotts and other forms of nonviolent resistance are capable of ever dislodging the collective wealthiest, malevolent and dangerous forces of evil now in control? Really?
