That lemmings over the cliff remark you posted, compels me to note that there was an off screen wrangler with a sheet of cardboard herding the hapless little rodents over that cliff.
No animal in the world has that type of natural behavior, as you probably know. but all the cult stuff lately shows you can talk a fool onto some real stuff. Money is the only reason for both situations to be created.
I am hopeful that the part of my society that is throwing their future over the cliffs by voting with the interests of billionaires and multi national industries will someday see they are just a disposable means to an end. That goal being unchanged throughout history, getting more of working peoples money for the super rich, no matter how many people die in the process of getting them even more money than they can ever spend. Government is the only thing powerful enough to check that power, that is why they hate the government, unless it is helping them with more money. They love regulations that protect wealth, protecting health and well being for workers , than government becomes a problem, that crap costs money.
I guess I am just upset from hearing the latest tax news, the super rich in america pay about 23% income tax. I remember when it was 70% and the middle class had more money, and we tried to get along with others, not to get vindication against another person's free right to an opinion.
