R.C.: Okay, so Luttwak stands as a prophet. However, let's hope that he isn't proven to be right about everything that he wrote back in 1994. After all, the headline atop Luttwak's piece, a quarter-century ago was scary. It bannered, "Why Fascism is the Wave of
If Virgil told you about an article arguing that the current system can't handle the challenges of globalization—pointing to "the completely unprecedented personal economic insecurity of working people, from industrial workers and white-collar clerks to medium-high managers"—you might be inclined to react as follows: "That's old news.

And so it's with the early-Mussolini model in mind that Luttwak argued, back in '94, that severe economic dislocation would open the door to unpleasant political reaction:
… and that is the space that remains wide open for a product-improved Fascist party, dedicated to the enhancement of the personal economic security of the broad masses of (mainly) white-collar working people. Such a party could even be as free of racism as Mussolini's original was until the alliance with Hitler, because its real stock in trade would be corporativist restraints on corporate Darwinism, and delaying if not blocking barriers against globalization.
R.C.: Why doesn't government serve its citizens?
I know why.
Just sayin'....
Oh, and if you needed to be reminded of the chicanery, treason, and pure evil of the Bush clan....

General Barry McCaffrey (Ret.) served for more than five years as the director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy during the Clinton administration. Under his leadership, the ONDCP developed the U.S. National Drug Control Strategy. Gen. McCaffrey teaches international security studies at the United States Military Academy and is frequently sought out as an adviser on issues of national security. The highly decorated general also works as a military analyst for NBC News and MSNBC and writes a regular column for the
Armed Forces Journal.
Isn't this wild?
Fleishman Hillard is the firm that bought Rob Allyn's old firm, Allyn & Associates. Allyn is the parasite who got Vicente Fox elected.
Allyn is also the parasite who used to sit on the board of Ace Cash Express. Ace has earned millions thanks to the remittances wetbacks have wired back to Mexico, Guatemala and elsewhere. All of these remittances, by definition, come from illicit activities, as those who wire the funds are here illegally.
Much of the remittances come from drug running here in Dallas and elsewhere.
Allyn is also George Bush's crony.

So, why did Fleishman Hillard buy Allyn's company?
And how is it that the a--hole McCaffrey came to run the White House Office on National Drug Control Policy, much less sit on the board of Fleishman Hillard? Isn't this like Al Capone running the Women's Christian Temperance Union?
Or should I ask this of Sec. of Defense Robert Gates?
"-----," my friends say, "you're nothing but a conspiracy nut."
It ain't a conspiracy, folks, if it's right out in the open.
McCaffrey and Allyn have made millions off open borders and illicit drug running. Why haven't they both been lined up against a wall and shot?
Not necessarily fascism. I would better call it economic nationalism.
ReplyDeleteI don't know who this "Virgil" person is, but why is he leaving out Pat Buchanan who, if my memory serves me, talked about this stuff when he first ran for president a couple years before 1994 and found unemployed factory workers in New Hampshire?
