The message of The People vs The Elite is straight-forward, persuasive, and difficult to argue against. The central thesis is that a global power elite – a small group of individuals, mainly bankers, along with other multi-billionaire members of the Transnational Capital Class – have taken over, and effectively rule the world; and, that the rule of this new global oligarchy of business elites is devouring the planet, the poor and the middle class, along with democracy, freedom, constitutional rule, the very basis of life on Earth, and our future: and that, if we do not remove them from power, we will have a very dark age ahead, followed by the collapse of our civilization, and quite possibly the end of the human species.
To anyone who has been paying attention, these things are by now irrefutable, and simply a matter of fact.
In short, the view presented here, and argued with passion and eloquence, is that revolution – democratic, non-violent, popular revolution – is urgently needed if we are to preserve life on Earth, or the future of humanity, or if we are to have any decent future at all.
It makes for compelling reading indeed. And it is a clarion call to action, as well as a manifesto for a popular democratic revolution, to save our world, our planet, and ourselves.
