Thread Name: BS: Disaster Capitalism & The Shock Doctrine
Subject: RE: BS: Disaster Capitalism & The Shock Doctrine
It wasn't reading the thread that I had in mind for people. What I had in mind was for people to watch the video I posted at 26 Oct 08 - 03:03 AM, and I will post again here. I'm beginning to get the impression that the sniper in this thread hasn't watched either of the videos I posted in it. And if that's the case, I don't think that person is in a position to comment at all...


Here's a new video of Naomi discussing more recent events, how the disaster capitalists are using/will use them to try to further their agenda, and some of the things we can do to take back our country from these insane and pathologically greedy people. One of the things she is suggesting is to begin pressuring Obama immediately after the election (if he gets elected) to respond to the majority of voters and what we want rather than to narrow special interests. One of the things she recommends is that we all put pressure on Obama to name Joseph Stiglitz as his treasury secretary and for us to make Robert Rubin, one of Obama's top economic advisors, as much of a political liability for Obama as the Reverend Wright (throw him under the bus, she says, and I agree)...
