Thank you, midnight, for posting this. I hope, since it's the weekend, that DUers will have time to listen to this. It's only about 35 mins long, but it is jam packed with info that we all need to know like the back of our hand. Don't know what a DLC-er is? Just listen and there will be no doubt left in your mind.

For awhile now, I've wanted to meet with everyone at the castle gates with our torches and pitchforks. Now, I'm thinking flamethrowers and tanks.
Here's a thought which might be a win-win. Either gun control measures win or the wealth gap collapses. Infiltrate the NRA, start talking French Revolution type reform. Just call it French revolution type reform. Inspire the ones who like to wave guns around and chant to do so, just write them a catchy chant, and turn em loose.
1 the wealthy panic and tell congress to dial back on guns, or
2 the wealth panic and stop the pillaging, dialing back their money harvester. At least for now. or
3 the wealth panic and fire the first salvo.
Granted, number three gets messy. But if we get players in key positions via the infiltration process. We can contain it at the edge of hostilities.

Before anyone screams Machiavellian manipulations I ask them to read "The Prince" 5 times in a row. Your perception of what is being said will change. Niccolo Machiavelli really hated the prince to whom the thesis was written for. There is useful information there, if for no other reason than to be able to recognize it wielded clumsily .
