This is entirely a straw man argument here. The issue always has been and remains the ideological, economic and political control over society by an oligarchic elite, whether it be the pater familias of the Roman Empire's pantheon or the families behind today's City of London/Wall Street criminals and their infotainment media bread and circuses. (See the disgusting spectacle of servile slavering in the media over the royal baby, for example.)This is precisely why the revival FDR's principled return to what Henry Carey described as the American system (see Alexander Hamilton's successful National Bank in paying off the war debt and Lincoln's greenback infrastructure development)as opposed to the British Empire's evil looting system is overdue. This means first and foremost allowing an orderly bankruptcy of the lunatic derivative speculators by reinstating Glass-Steagall. Next it means international cooperation in generating credit for building vast new systems of transport, water and power infrastructure in order to uplift the worldwide standard of living. Thus ending the evil geopolitical nightmare of unending proxy wars immediately initiated under the rubric of cold war by that talentless toady of the City of London and Wall Street, Harry Truman upon the death of FDR. ((Which reportedly Oliver Stone is about to blow apart the fawning mythology of give 'em hell (as in the unnecessary atomic bombs he dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on orders from the lunatic geopoliticians like the Dulleses) Harry.))
Anything which doesn't address this reality is just so much blowing smoke.
Eratosthenes first measured the circumference of the earth from the shadows cast by the sun. Today, humanity's fitness to survive will be measured by our ability to conquer that same thermonuclear fusion that casts those shadows. Thus, Prometheus will truly be unbound.
