Naomi frames the nature of how neo-capitalism creates its hegemony. Now, we need to make the social efforts to curtail the system and people who profit from this process.
Find ways to spend your money, time and expression towards curtailing the people who would sell us for their comfort. It is big, but we are very, very big. Once the chill sets in, they will come to find a moral compass, as we will focus their interests upon.
