   @paul Oligarchy at its finest.

   Remember Scroogled by @pluralistic ? https://cmci.colorado.edu/~cafi5706/Scroogled.pdf

   The surveillance economy has just taken over the state. With all resources of the state at its disposal. And with Musk and Thiel at the Helm of reshaping governmental functions into profit centres for their companies.

   Fun.

     Because of a bullish day in the stock market, #ElonMusk's net worth increased $13 billion in one day, partly due to his connection with Trump.

     Some news organizations are saying it is now up $26 billion since election day. That much in just a few days.

     It's just a reminder that the original word fascism, as coined by Mussolini was the merging of corporations and government (Corporatism) and total authority over its citizens. #USPol It will lead to corruption like never seen in the US.
