Another majestic essay Cory. The devil's greatest trick is convincing us that he and his oligarchs don't exist, and if they do you are welcome to join them. The only semi-silver lining for some of our waning Democracy, if that ruling oligarchs can give up the charade and get back to their raping and pillaging. And, the rest us can accept our serfdom, of hopefully not. Note: https://medium.com/@daneke/a-requiem-for-american-democracy-5aa717cc7f40.
