Looking inside the war industry is not a pursuit of idle curiosity. There can be nothing idle about the work of serious peace and social justice activists. There is no leeway for any ignorance about the enemy of peace and justice. The enemy must be thoroughly known from inside out, what it is, how it operates, and, most importantly, exactly what its lifeline is that gives it sustenance and unbridled growth.

With due respect to the citizens of Pisa and their landmark bell tower, I am using it loosely as a metaphor for the permanent tilting of America's institutions of higher learning to the corrupting influences of America's corpocracy ever since the beginning of those institutions.
While I've written several times about the corruption of American education, this article limits itself to an overview of the corruption of Amer

Browsing the Internet, one can find a deluge of entries on social justice and peace activists, but very little about their own introspections on how they see and feel themselves as activists.
Seeking to fill at least partially that void I aim to explore in this article what it is like to be an activist in America for social justice and peace. I will do this in four ways.

When corporations are unmasked their leadership is found to be morally depraved, and their organizations dysfunctional. This conclusion is an overarching simple truth that subsumes many other simple truths. The primary intent of this article is to unmask corporate America by telling you about these simple truths.

This article fills in the gap in my analysis of the US war habit by focusing briefly on the childhood of war, the formative years before adulthood in which various influences have their greatest and long-lasting effects on those being formed, or as we shall see, being "deformed."

America's churches, synagogues and mosques can be thought of as places of business as well as worship. Individually and collectively they are Religion, Inc. and not really all that different from Corporations, Inc. This short essay makes some sweeping generalizations that nevertheless should be self evident about the commonalities between the two entities.

There are many roots of evil, but the one most invasive and destructive is America's corpocracy. It is the mother root with two branches that are slowly snuffing out America and the world with it. Those two branches are corporate America and government America. This essay is about the first, corporate America, and specifically, evil corporate leadership, defined here as profoundly immoral,socially irresponsible and harmful.

As a long-in-the-tooth, organizational psychologist, I have noticed that my field generally knows little about the organization of government or the art of governing, concentrating as it does on the other part of the corpocracy, corporate America. In this short essay I define governing, list its various forms throughout the ages and in America, and then close by proposing a model for governing in America that is definitely dif

This essay highlights two unparalleled groups of bloodletters in America's 240 years of history, U.S. presidents and the captains of America's industries. These two groups are part of the power elite of America's corpocracy, the incestuous marriage between Government America and Corporate America, with the latter in charge.

A small land situated between the North Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean, Iceland minds her own business and minds it very well. This short piece is a tribute to her people and their history and gives a lesson that needs to be learned and practiced by the greatest trouble making nation of all time during only 240 year of her existence, The United States of America.

The purpose of this article is threefold: to shed the slime light on the whitewashing by America's corpocracy of five of our nation's truly despicable yet revered presidents; to show how legacy spinning is but a microcosm of the power elites' broader agenda; and to point out the overall implications of that agenda.

This is another occasional article in the author's crusade to put venal corporate America and its pawn, corrupted, captive government, in their well deserved slime light, one that can't be missed by anyone who is observant and not fooled. Nevertheless, this article may shed some further slime light.
