Americans are Serfs led by Oligarchs, according to Paul Craig Roberts, who used to be a fairly standard conservative.

"a fairly standard conservative". And now, I understand, has formed his own political party----of one.   Never to be expanded.

Reminds me of a story on Prairie Home Companion.   Castaway, rescued after 15 years from an island, showing his rescuers around.   "This is my house, this is my farmhouse, this is my school, and this is my church".

"What's this other building on the other side of your farmhouse?"

"That's the church I used to belong to".
