Robert Reich: "The REAL Public Nuisance"
Robert Reich breaks some knowledge on the REAL public nuisance. OCCUPYDEMOCRACY
It is time to comprehend that neither the American nor World dream of Sustainable Prosperity can be accomplished in the 21st Century with a crippled and stagnant science of energy and Reality perspective choking off potential and possibilities.
The Deadliest DEMOCRACY OMISSION
As we are witnessing, the effects of our shallow, scientific definition and applications of Energy, required for human survival, are becoming increasingly deadly. From global warming, pollution, ecological imbalance, to resource wars, famine, poverty……to both individuals and institutions, unwittingly perpetuating continuous development towards a restricting, limiting, strangulating future, based on false and omitted evidence of Reality.
Democracy is NOT influence pedaling of science, knowledge, wisdom & understanding:
• That the current state of the dysfunctional world reflects the epitome of 21st Century Modern Science, Technology, Wisdom and Understanding represents a grave, misleading and false belief error - one based on a science and educational system severely crippled, diseased and lacking the full spectrum of scientific awareness. • That the current state of the world reflects the epitome of 21st Century Modern Science and Understanding of ENERGY, resting upon a 100 year old Stagnant concept of E=MC2, deadly radiation, oil, corn, swinging baboon vines (ladders to space), and other cumbersome, insufficient, and inefficient trivia concepts - represents a science and educational system severely crippled, diseased and lacking the full spectrum of scientific awareness, a system governed (funded) by extreme self interest and immediate profit goals.
• That the current state of world-wide economic strangulation and Debt reflects the epitome of 21st Century Modem Science, Technology, Wisdom and Understanding – in a world whose population, needs, desires, wants are exploding, and AGAINST ALL ODDS, the economy is in a 10-30 year sideways Decline Spin, with 98% of worldwide wealth and resources flowing in the hands of a 2% minority, as the remaining 98%, seven billion people, struggle to cope on the scraps of the remaining 2% of worldwide wealth and resources ........................ represents a science and educational system severely crippled, diseased and lacking the full spectrum of scientific awareness, a system governed (funded) by extreme self interest and immediate profit goals.
The Road to Democracy
Historical Control Methods upgrading, consolidating into current day Big Brother- Guns no longer needed – subliminal, coercive persuasion, social influence methods (as in politically correct or else) which indirectly threaten jobs and lively hoods for complete adherence to unquestioned obedience are far more effective:
For some scholars, a dictatorship is a form of government that has the power to govern without consent of those being governed (similar to authoritarianism), while totalitarianism describes a state that regulates nearly every aspect of public and private behavior of the people. In other words, dictatorship concerns the source of the governing power (where the power comes from) and totalitarianism concerns the scope of the governing power (what is the government).
In this sense, dictatorship (government without people's consent) is a contrast to democracy (government whose power comes from people) and totalitarianism (government controls every aspect of people's life) opposes pluralism (government allows multiple lifestyles and opinions).
Other scholars stress the omnipotence of the State (with its consequent suspension of rights) as the key element of a dictatorship and argue that such concentration of power can be legitimate or not depending on the circumstances, objectives and methods employed.[1]
Thought reform, coercive persuasion is not mysterious. It is the systematic application of psychological and social influence techniques in an organized programmatic way within a constructed and managed environments (5,7,8,9,10). The goal is to produce specific attitudinal and behavioral changes. The changes occur incrementally without its being patently visible to those undergoing the process that their attitudes and behavior are being changed a step at a time according to the plan of those directing the program.
In psychology, the study of brainwashing, often referred to as thought reform, falls into the sphere of "social influence." Social influence happens every minute of every day. It's the collection of ways in which people can change other people's attitudes, beliefs and behaviors. For instance, the compliance method aims to produce a change in a person's behavior and is not concerned with his attitudes or beliefs. It's the "Just do it" approach. Persuasion, on the other hand, aims for a change in attitude, or "Do it because it'll make you feel good/happy/healthy/successful." The education method (which is called the "propaganda method" when you don't believe in what's being taught) goes for the social-influence gold, trying to affect a change in the person's beliefs, along the lines of "Do it because you know it's the right thing to do." Brainwashing is a severe form of social influence that combine¬s all of these approaches to cause changes in someone's way of thinking without that person's consent and often against his will.
"Fascism Is about the state running things on behalf of corporations". Adrian Lyttelton in his book on Mussolini wrote that 'Fascism can be viewed as a product of the transition from the market capitalism of the independent producer to the organized capitalism of the oligopoly.' It was a point that Orwell noted when he described fascism as being but an extension of capitalism. Lyttelton quoted Italian Nationalist theorist Affredo Rocco: 'The Fascist economy is... an organized economy. It is organized by the producers themselves, under the supreme direction and control of the State

Corporism: The Systemic Disease that Destroys Civilization http://www.countercurrents.org!glo¬reinerl1503.htm Huge corporations now control America's body politic by reason of their bald-faced purchases of the three branches of the American government and America's major media. by Ken Reiner: kreiner@earthlink.net 05/09/03: I view the continuing growth of corporate power and its despotic control of governments throughout the world, including our own, as a socio-economic disease. While MussoJini and others named it "Fascism," I call it "Corporism" because that name better reveals its underlying institutional structure. I would define Corporism as the domination of government and society by the emergence and power of the giant publicly-traded multinational corporations and financial institutions, organized in totalitarian hierarchies, which singly and in combinations buy or destroy their competitors, corrupt the politics of nations, and seize, hoard, and wield for themselves most of the wealth of the human race.

OF GODS AND MORTALS AND EMPIRE
It sounded like two behemoth icebergs colliding in the North Atlantic, but you needed the right kind of ears to hear it. Two immensely powerful forces crashed into each other over the weekend of February 15th, and the resulting thunder has set the world to trembling.
On one side were the people, who took to the streets all across the world by the tens of millions to stand against George W. Bush's push for pre-emptive war on Iraq. The numbers, and the locations, were staggering.
The weekend of February 15th saw this force ram headlong into the will of men who walk in shadow, whose hands wield lightning and steel, pestilence and famine. In their ranks stand Presidents, Prime Ministers, corporate magnates, untouchable billionaires, and the advisors who whisper to them of empire and domination. They are few in number, but life and death flows from their fingertips in freshets and gouts. These men control the armies and navies of great nations, nuclear and chemical nightmares beyond measure, unassailable technological weapons and walls, the financial cords which hold the package together, the water, the air, the oil, the law, and a global media machine by which they can obscure their designs with pleasing lies.
No mere citizen could do what these men in one moment can do with the crooking of a little finger. With a word, they can erase cities, deprive an entire populace of water and light, unleash disease and famine, annihilate the economies of dozens of nations, and imprison forever anyone who dares dissent. These men bleed, they sicken, they die, but in their time of life they can punch holes in the sky large enough to make Zeus wince with envy. Like the millions who marched, the gathering of such fearful powers into the hands of so few is also without precedent in all of human history
