I am powerfully reminded of the words of David Cogswell 15 years ago ("Chomsky for Beginners" by David Cogswell - Writers & Readers 1996 - Page 109) :
"Who are these rulers ? It is an international elite. It is the aristocracy of the modern world.
The insiders operate mostly in secret, while orchestrating distracting movements on the stage of politics. They are extremely powerful, and extremely skilled at what they do...
"The rulers are a tiny minority.
What they fear most is that the sleeping giant, the public - the people - will wake up and take control of what Orwell called "the space between the ears", and actually use the power it doesn't know it has.
That's why the rulers put so much effort and money into propaganda.
They know if the public ever get hip to their game, they are finished."
