Serfs up: how coddling the rich is destroying the American dream

Serfs up: how coddling the rich is destroying the American dream


"As it turns out, Ronald Reagan really did stage a second American revolution; a revolution that reversed the original. Because removing any pressure on income at the very top removed the only obstacle to what we have today—a system that inches ever closer to feudalism." ~ excerpt


The power of the many against the few is more than simply a matter of organizing or even innovating .... the ability and even the potential for collaboration is constantly subject to the lack of viable objective evidence for the overall advantage to any specific individual among the competing and contradictory political, social and economic groups.


The concept of feudalism is an important one to carefully consider for it places a blockade to the potential for contribution from the individuals not endowed with the advantage of existing power... Liberty is held in check in by oligarchy as surely as by anything else.
