C&L Radio: John Amato and "Shock Doctrine" Author Naomi Klein (Part 2)

John Amato of CrooksandLiars.com speaks with Canadian author and activist Naomi Klein about her blockbuster book, "The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism", and how the massive Wall Street bailout proposal ties in perfectly with the thesis of her book.

From Amazon:

Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine advances a truly unnerving argument: historically, while people were reeling from natural disasters, wars and economic upheavals, savvy politicians and industry leaders nefariously implemented policies that would never have passed during less muddled times. As Klein demonstrates, this reprehensible game of bait-and-switch isn't just some relic from the bad old days. It's alive and well in contemporary society, and coming soon to a disaster area near you.

07:49 Naomi Klein:

"Both parties are going to hear from their Constituents"

Really, pray tell, are they going to vote for Nader, who would increase funding for the DOJ and throw the Wall Street crooks in jail?

I hope so, because I will, but I am not holding my breath.

When the Democrats cave as they always do, the Constituents will do what?
