The End of the Beginning of the End

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: "The noose is tightening around the necks of average people, and more become radicalized with each passing day.... It does not have to be this way, and if it continues in this way, eventually the dam is going to break."

The Influence of Individuals and Family Dynasties

Andrew Gavin Marshall, Occupy.com: With the rise of capitalism, finance and corporations, formal political dynasties became less relevant to the expansion and maintenance of power and empire. Instead, dynastic power was and remains largely wielded in the corporate and financial sectors.
