Disagree. Elite classes have cushions, choices, secret hoards, destinations too far for lightning to strike, to use a phrase from one of my poems.

We the people have no choice but to keep blundering on.

The single mother with two jobs. Homeless families. Tiny infractions which make large swathes of minorities unemployable. Etc etc.. PTSD veterans of American wars for oil …

Bonded labor does not exist only in obscure locations to most Americans, we have it right here at home — the mighty credit card, lethal tool of capitalism. Cartels rule.

It’s time to shatter monopolies. Whatever happened to antitrust laws??
