For those that would like to educate themselves on how/where the motivations for our current economy, this is a great read (insanely thorough). As they say, 'truth is stranger than fiction'.
This is also for those that would like to learn about a 'real' conspiracy that is actually shaping our world as I type this. Fascinatingly terrifying!
'“The United States is now at one of those historic forks in the road whose outcome will prove as fateful as those of the 1860s, the 1930s, and the 1960s,” writes MacLean. “To value liberty for the wealthy minority above all else and enshrine it in the nation’s governing rules, as Calhoun and Buchanan both called for and the Koch network is achieving, play by play, is to consent to an oligarchy in all but the outer husk of representative form.”
Nobody can say we weren’t warned.'
