Douglas Rushkoff vs. Wall Street

[David Morris]

I very much appreciate how he describes the "weary cynicism" of recent
political realities-perception.  It is the same as the "Oh Dear-ism"
that Rich pointed us to:

"this is exactly the point of the great Adam Curtis' short film "oh, Dear"-ism."

May this "movement" grow, and may it shake up the cynicism of the US press!

In the process, it has been easy to forget just  how outrageous the story of our economic woes really is. So, in case you’ve forgotten, it was a play in three acts.
