Eroding Freedom in America by Stephen Lendman
"Freedom is a four-letter word. It's fast disappearing. It's an endangered species. Wealth, power and privilege alone matter. America's war on terror priorities advance them.
International, constitutional and US statute laws are spurned. Rogue state ruthlessness replaced them. Boston's unprecedented lockdown suggests what's coming. It covered a two hundred square mile area. An important threshold was crossed.
Washington is Wall Street occupied territory. What financial giants want, they get. They're waging financial war on humanity. They're more powerful than standing armies.
Economies are strip-mined for profit. Communities are laid waste. Ordinary people are impoverished and left out. Vital needs go begging.
Money power in private hands and democracy can't co-exist. Complicit politicians betray the public trust. They do so for benefits they derive.
Social injustice defines official policy. Class war rages more than ever. America's on a fast track toward tyranny. Stopping it requires free, fair and open elections. It's also about returning money to public hands where it belongs."
It's hard-right, unbridled, reactionary, and pro-corporate. It's anti-democratic, anti-dissent, anti-freedom, anti-civil and human rights, anti-social justice, anti-environmental sanity, and anti-government of, by and for everyone.
