Some time ago I stopped listening to the wealthy/powerful because I realized that they would say/print practically ANYTHING in order to defend themselves.  Imagine what you might do if you were seriously concerned that all of the CHICKENS were getting organized and were going to rise up against their human captors/killers?  That's the current position of the ultra-wealthy.  They are very outnumbered by the poor/middle class and the internet is making mind-control VERY difficult.  ET isn't helping their cause.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
