This Letter To Mike Pence Is Frightening Neoliberal Fantasy
and it Might Become RealityWelcome to my nightmare, Thom reads from a letter to Mike Pence discussing privatization, disaster capitalism and the shock doctrine after natural disasters and how the predatory and morbidly rich are looking to profit from your loss. This is colonialism.
Thom takes your calls on the Military Industrial Complex, how much of our tax dollars go towards funding the military industrial complex and why is it so high?

This accumulation by dispossession of everything, even privacy, is truly frightening,
Trump is bringing us nothing but chaos, his governance style is chaos, Steve Bannon wants to dismantle the administrative state, and all the alphabet agencies are being run by people opposed to their very mission, this has to be anarchy right?
And that would make Trump an Anarchist? Actually not! Anarchism as a political movement is for horizontal social and political organizations, which is literally the opposite of the Morbidly Rich ruling over the working class oligarchy of Donald Trump.
Thom tells us the story of Wounded Knee on its anniversary, what really happened over 126 years ago.
The Gini Coefficient is a tool to measure inequality in a society, at a certain point of inequality, revolution happens! The Gini Coefficient says it's time for an American Political Revolution.
Broken clocks are right twice a day so when Donald Trump said that his ratings on the news networks would keep him in office for four more years... Was this one of those times?
We hope you had a great holiday this year, but while you were enjoying food with your family, catching up on reading or netflix, the Trump administration was busy at work looking to sneak by some of their goals while we were busy resting.

Is There A Corporation Large Enough To Make Libertarians Fear Monopolies
