Politics is the Shadow Cast on Society by Big Business

As Noam Chomsky put it this week:

"The United States effectively has a one-party system, the business party, with two factions, Republicans and Democrats."

And as the social philosopher John Dewey put it early in this century:

"Politics is the shadow cast on society by big business."

Politics is the Shadow Cast on Society by Big BusinessAnd that will remain true as long as power resides in "business for private profit through private control of banking, land, industry, reinforced by command of the press, press agents and other means of publicity and propaganda," Dewey said.

Nader/Gonzalez is churning.

Agitating.

Creating a force for change.

Against the shadow cast by big business.

Against all odds, we are optimistic about the future.
