The Collapse of American Liberalism

The Death of the American Liberal Class
Chris Hedges


"We the people" are ignorant, impudent, and irrelevant. The press, the university, the church, even the unions, have all been infiltrated by the Corporate interests.

The Liberal Elite destroyed itself to keep its privileged status. Without Liberals the world gets bleak, quick. The utter failure of the leadership 'class' and the loss of democracy to Corporations has spawned a set of neo-fascist populist movements, such as Libertarian Anarchists. Now moral nihilism is at hand, as we embrace pre-emptive war, and there is no moral authority to lead by example.
