The point of the piece is that we’re walking right into precisely what she predicted, and that it could get much worse with Obama.
I’ve worried for a long time that this was a problem; it’s why I was so behind Ron Paul. But I’ve come to believe that the danger on the other side (corruption and selfishness) is actually much worse, and that we need a correction of the general social breed.
