repeatedly here on DU, I have to ask myself......

Do People realize that 95+% of ALL Media in the U.S. is owned/operated by the Uber Rich Oligarchs and Corporations????????

WHILE THE NATION SLEPT.............

AND

"The people were wandering down the Jungle Path, swatting at mosquitoes, completely oblivious to the herd of charging elephants"
