7. Sometimes I think so too, but hope not. Maybe the internet will make...
...another kind of revolution possible. It already is in some ways - very hard for gov't officials to hide things from us now.

10. I don't know. Seems we might be better off with Comcast owning NBC...
...rather than military contractor, GE.

You have different thoughts?

14. They'll clamp down on it just as fast as Iran would
Don't doubt it.

And it will probably be explained away as some catastrophic glitch.

A few days later there will be people in uniforms patrolling the streets.

15. The day Congress stands up to corporate interests is
the day senators and representatives are standing in a row with a million citizens with pitchforks at their backs.

Bernie Sanders is America's senator.
