Related: About this forumChris Hedges at Central CT State University 3/29/14
Very moving discussion. We are corporate state and they want misery for us and return us to te middle ages. And Chris offers bona fide answers as to what to do about it. It's got to come from us, our institutions are too corrupt to reform. And what of the lawyers, judges and law professors?
