Somebody puts up some weird thing and somebody else thinks yeah maybe that's the way things work and pretty soon you have some cult going.

Noam ChomskySyria is descending into suicide. It's a horror story and getting worse and worse. There's no bright spot on the horizon.

Noam ChomskyIt's been a real success - one of the great business successes in the United States - to break down organization, to separate people too: it's part of consumerism. If you can drive people toward individual consumption, that's the highest goal in life. And furthermore, drive them into debt so they're trapped. You don't have to worry about a democracy function because people are trapped and they're alone.
