In the light of day, I notice that Ron Davies still finds the term corporate oligarchy to be a highly charged exaggeration.

Now I wonder why. Since what Wall street banks have done in concert is the classic definition of oligarchy it is the correct word. IF the term is somehow offensive, yet accurate, are you suggesting a stand in phrase might be more acceptable? Perhaps Bogeymen? Organized Banksters?

I thought oligarchy was polite and pc.


To paint a true image of the current oligarchy in power despite the recent addition of a populist President, one has to include, investment banksters, Congress, the Pentagon, the CIA, soldiers of fortune contractors, and a handfull of industrial weapon manufacturers. It would look like an octopus with a seperate head for each arm all joined at the treasury - not the president.

To protect itself the first defensive move the oligarchy uses is DELAY. If for thier benefit they can delay something one year they can delay it 5 years. A remedy delayed is a remedy denied.

Picture a 747 in the factory being assembled. If production stops at some point and a year later another team comes in they do not really know what is done and where to resume. The airplane has to bedisassembled befor it can go forward again.

Delay usually works. We know the other tricks in thier bag but delay is the best first response that usually works.
