Re: Charles Stross on global capitalism (none / 0)

I think the only question left to answer is whether this accelerating policy of impoverishment of the 95%/enrichment of the 5% that has occurred in the last 40 years is a deliberate policy within the implemetation of Anglo disease or just a lucky by-product.

I know Naomi Wolf's Shock doctrine argues persuasively for the former but I don't think these people are bright enough to do it deliberately.
