Bill Moyers picks up on how everything has changed-
"...watching the birth of a new American political system and way of governing for which, as yet, we have no name."
"... five areas in which at least the faint outlines of that new system seem to be emerging: political campaigns and elections; the privatization of Washington through the marriage of the corporation and the state; the de-legitimization of our traditional system of governance; the empowerment of the national security state as an untouchable fourth branch of government; and the demobilization of “we the people."
1. One Percent Elections
2. The Privatization of the State (or the US as a Prospective Third-World Nation)
3. The De-legitimization of Congress and the Presidency
4. The Rise of the National Security State as the Fourth Branch of Government
"Put together our one percent elections, the privatization of our government, the de-legitimization of Congress and the presidency, as well as the empowerment of the national security state and the US military and add in the demobilization of the American public (in the name of protecting us from terrorism) and you have something like a new ballgame."
"... rewritten on the run by interested parties in Congress, our present crop of billionaires, corporate interests, lobbyists, the Pentagon and the officials of the national security state."
"...a new culture, a new kind of politics, a new kind of governance is being born right before our eyes."

*gsgs comment- Would all these agreements, plans, maneuvers, have been possible before the advance of computer technology, and every advance in technology that branched off ?*
