Occupy America and Friendly Fascism: Life in the Corporate Police State

Time will tell whether the Occupy protests amount to anything more than an expression of discontent on the part of the 99%. However, as John W. Whitehead points out in this week's vodcast, what has been made clear, is that the 1% is protected by its own security force—the police—funded ironically enough by the very 99% against whom they are waging war with pepper spray, rubber bullets, tear gas and other instruments of compliance.

When Arabs rise against their oppresive regimes they're FREEDOM FIGHTERS

When Americans & the English do - they're DIRTY UNEMPLOYED HIPPIES

Wake up SLAVES

Way to quote the preface of Friendly Fascism. How many people read the preface these days? It is, indeed, an alarming quote: "As I look at America today, I am not afraid to say that I am afraid". Hey great job on this video-- you were so articulate and well prepared, as usual. I am a fan sir.
