Koch Conclave Protected By Mile Wide "Under The Dome" Security Cordone

The Koch conclave that included the richest conservatives in the country as well as Cantor and Ryan was protected by a mile wide cordon so no could get even near the resort to protest. This illustration is their Amerika that will be only for the rich. Forget Belle Isle, the entire country will be a hodge podge of sequestered Belle Isle's while most of the country languishes in need and deprivation.

"Elysium" is their most cherished wish. Their plan and their version of the US what they seek. The last 32 years has been a well planned coup that they hope to complete by 2020. We already have a waste land in the "rust belt" of their making. The Kochs have been at their plan since the death of their "daddy" who was instrumental in starting the John Birch Society.

Whether is be private security or the local police the "dome of protection" is the clearest symbol of fascism that is now in fact the American state. They on the verge of running and owning everything.

to only talk about "money" or how you screwed over someone today? How you added to your big pile of cash like Scrooge McDuck.

... precisely the way the television series is showing it (up until now)...

Then we could even sell tickets to watch them kill each other off from the outside as their food and resources run out. And keep them from communicating to the outside so that we can stop their influences over politics, the stock market, etc.

I believe there was a guest who was following the meeting the Koch's had at a resort. Cantor and Ryan were in attendance. The Kochs give their campaigns a lot of support.

It looks like the Koch's and others who are extremely wealthy want to call the shots in Congress. One reason they want to stop any action on global warming is that their oil will be much more valuable in the future if the cost per barrel were to go over $200 if oil gets more scarce.

Certain economic elements want to profit off of global climate change and prey on desperate people. Climate change is already pretty much under way and the consequences now cannot be avoided. The question is how bad it will get.

Mostly of the Libertarian type, as this system does not interfere with their vision.

If you don't pay taxes to the socialist government, own property and can get private security with guns to protect yourself (Rand's little joke) and all within your area of control are employed by you, it's utopia.

The ones outside the cult or clan will be your prey and sport. These new robber barons don't look like the old ones, but the proof is in what they do.

People have been taught a romanticized version of what this really is to let it grow until it's going to be the end of the USA. The Tenthers are working for the postitions they've been promised in the new 50 fiefdoms, run by oligarchs.

It's just armed robbery by another name. Meh.
