I have been a political activist for 45 years. My focus has
been on the excesses of the national security state and the
need to create a new political party to counter it.
Whether you label it the New World Order, the Deep State,
the Military-Industrial Complex, or The Huxwellian World of
2016 as I do, a careful review of the current landscape
demonstrates clearly that we are governed by a “power
elite” of corporate oligarchs and global bankers who
dominate the decision-making process through their
lobbyists, control of elected officials irrespective of party
affiliation, and ownership of the media and other means
of communication.
I have written endlessly about this dynamic and what, if
anything, can be done to transcend it. Even though I long
ago concluded that we have passed the tipping point into
tyranny, a decent regard for the opinions of others who
disagree, as well as the humility borne out of the possibility
(and hope) that I might be wrong, enticed me to soldier on.
In words brimming with truth while lacking any rancor, the
author of the following essay has accurately summarized my
years of research and personal experience.

The article is a grim account of our current reality with a wonderful
conclusion about the theatrics of the 2016 presidential campaign.
It is not for the faint of heart but is essential to those with the courage
to comprehend the challenges we face and the willingness to find a
way forward in the face of such overwhelming barriers to freedom.
