Who benefits... all our puerile analysis of policy is focused on 'who is hurt', not 'who benefits'. This diary is completely focused on 'who benefits'.
I have three analyses to share:
1) The neo-con agenda:
If the neo-cons win, all 300 million of us will be focussed on how to maintain 'American' superiority in the face of 20-1 odds (in the long run, we have 5% of the population of the planet... how do we maintain superiority (ref: all western powers, Greece, Rome, Venice, France, England, America)). This focus is futile, given its axioms. However, the people currently guiding neo-con policy benefit personally: if the dollar goes to a 1000:1 ratio, they will still be positioned to elevate their children far above the local norm.
that's enough for now. If there's a rational, psychologically aware and statistically aware response to my diary, I will respond with more....
