Seems to me the new “ Religion “ in America is to worship the $ . Adams said,
“ But when such restraints are taken off, it becomes an encroaching, grasping, restless and ungovernable power.”
The corporate elite have enlisted their lobbyists and , more recently, just bags of cash to free themselves from rules that prevent their natural inclinations to monopolize. The list of restraints they have removed is long and , by analogy, is there much of a difference between the dark ages brought on by powerful religious interests
or the poverty of the people brought on by the Almighty Dollar?
Unlimited greed, "capitalism", and God do not mix!
