In response, corporations have been able to write legislation to be passed, install its own people in regulatory agencies that supervise them, discount scientific information detrimental to there profits and consolidate the press under their control. In the eyes of corporations political parties are to be bought to change public policy to favor profits. Differences are to be exploited with fear so that free people will voluntarily give up their freedoms for the promise of safety. Corporations don't really care about abortion or gay rights, but they will fund those who are against such things if those voters will put in office people who will serve corporate interests.

Don't fear the one world government,
fear the one world corporation

The rich are terrified of the masses, so it is better to pit them against each other. Encourage divisiveness over religion, culture, ethnicity, or race. People who don't buy into the great capitalist dream or even resist it are the enemy. The Muslim world (war on terrorism), socialist countries in Europe (Old Europe), indigenous and working people in Central and South America (war on drugs), and Africa (aids and evangelism) are being dealt with as we speak.

In America, fear is the weapon against reason. If you are afraid of your neighbor's religion, political leaning, sexual orientation, that your child is learning about evolution, then you have already bought in. What you really ought to be afraid of is as benign as your local gas station, your TV set, and the credit card in your wallet. Fear and the marketing of unneeded goods and services, these are the tools of your real enemies. The answer is simple peace and justice in every aspect of our personal, spiritual and political lives are the enemies of the corporate control. As Bob Marley once sang "WAKE UP AND LIVE".
