Economic Capture - Money Power in the World |

"Some of the people can be fooled all the time.
I have no doubt that "small groups of thoughtful and committed individuals anonymously work at changing the world" and that is happening all the time, though it does not happen with the "show" of any parade and, I believe, does not happen at all unless such *change* is compelling and rewarding to those who pick up such a banner to carry as their own.
Meanwhile, those with money, or the "promise of wealth" given through emission of colourful, though worthless, paper, as IOUs or symbols of "precious metal" which may, or may not, actually exist, but which images by themselves corrupt no less than the actual metals, are able, through constant repetition, of truth or lie or some combination of both, to "engineer" public opinion, more often toward hate than toward conciliation, in any case to instil fear with the object of being THE "power" which can provide "safety" from such fear, although that "safety" is realized no more than actually possessing silver or gold is a natural consequence of accumulating paper currency.
The "dominant theme" chosen by such Money Power is reinforced as long as belief in that theme is in the interest of Money Power which would not "promise to pay" for such reinforcement if the outcome of engineered belief did not align mass thinking toward Money Power goals.
Where, then, is the fallacy ?
Money Power will not devote energy to promoting any dominant social theme which will suit its own ends but is already gaining popularity on its own, unless to "hurry it up" in process of achieving some other urgent end."
