Everyone in Europe looks at the castle on the hill and is reminded that this is the place where rich men once lived who oppressed the common peoples. This was known as feudalism and our European ancestors dealt with these devils to set things straight (a small number of beheadings in England to get the Magna Carta; a large number in France to oppose anyone employing a “noble title” and the church to get more rights than the little guy).

What I don’t understand is this: in North America there are lots of rich bastards behaving badly (lobbying the government to reduce their taxes; shift our jobs off shore; funding science denier organizations masquerading as “think thanks”) while the common people treat them like rock stars. While it is true we don’t see castles in North America to remind us of previous social wrongs, it is time for the common man to wake up to what is actually going on. Instead of reading Friedrich Hayek (The Road to Serfdom) people would be better off reading Thomas Paine.

It seems that every person that I talk with about the Koch brothers asks if they make Coca-Cola. I’m trying to get the word out about these guys though. They can’t hide from the public spotlight forever.

“MSNBC was almost as distorted in the other direction, with 80 percent of guests supporting the rules ”

I wouldn’t call that distorted, since 97% of climate scientists and virtually every major scientific organization in the world would agree with regulating greenhouse gas emissions.
