It There does seem to be a growing consensus in that area. I find it difficult to believe, but certainly plausible. After all, what's Desert Storm really about? Oil. In school we all learned about the US government system of checks and balances. But I think of equal importance is the economic systems of checks and balances, a three-way balance between employer, employee, and government. That pretty much sums up most political debates in the economic arena -- the struggle to shift this balance point. For example, it could be argued that in 1978, the employees had too much power. To me, this seems like a deadly fragile system, because if it gets too far out of balance, all the power and money flows to one end of the scale, -- they attract and cause each other. In theory, the side that is left high and dry would assert itself and grab the power back. But what if the shift was hidden? Let's just keep our eyes open. >should also be pointed out here now that the CIA has become involved >in economic espionage recently.

For example lets take a close look at raygun's interiror department. james Watt head of dept of Interior---formerly of the Mountain State Legal Foundation--- a group funded and started by Coors Anne Gorusch head of EPA---formerly supported by Coors in the Colorado legislature Robert Burford head of BLM---- married Gorush, a rancher with grazing permits on 32,000 acres of BLM land. Sanderson and Field---EPA consultants brought to the EPA by Gorusch both were former Coors lawyers. Durham---- EPA head of the 6 state region--- former colleague of Gorusch in the Colorado legislature Coors manipulated additional dumping into a landfill previously shut down through Sanderson, who just happen to be an lawyer for the manager of the landfill, Chemical Waste management. Now to tie this all together, long a mouth piece for the CIA and the hard right Readers Digest referred to Joe Coors as a leading environmentalist. Now thats a funny label for the head of the company that is primarly responsible for a waste site that is deserving of superfund status but do to undue political influence has not been granted that status. source "The Coors Connection' by Russ Bellant. One comment here, the elections are set up today in such a manner that only the rich or those that are supported by the rich can afford to run a campaign.
