Invasive Terrorism of the Corporate Rich

 Civil rights in the United States are in decline. The rich of Yale affiliation and other elite institutions are part of the cause of that. Rich corporations and media lackeys serving them transgress civil rights boundaries whenever they can through innumerable high tech means including Big Data/mining trampling over the 1st and 4th amendments as if they were valid only for-themselves.

 In my opinion organized civil rights violations by the rich comprise terrorism or at least sedition. Civil rights in the United States are fundamentally properties of boundaries for individuals that secure the individuals’ right to go about his or her life without interference, hindrance or sabotage economically and personally. In a nation based on self-help free enterprise the freedom to act in the market without one’s equal rights being subverted is essential if individuals are to have any sort of humane life style.

 Anyone can violate civil rights of course, it is just that the rich have an easier time of it organizing themselves to exploit their fellow citizens to gain that felony edge- the advantage over others that is too sweet for the corrupt to resist. They may even develop an economic philosophy that disingenuously claims what they are doing is necessary in order for capitalism to survive and that resistance is leftist and socialist.

 There are millions of Americans that have no regard for civil rights nor understanding of what those are. They are happy living in ad hoc collective social behavior milieus. For them civil rights may mean race rights or special  class rights of empowerment yet nothing like what they are; boundaries delimiting social behavior for every citizen and resident that stop anyone from victimizing them, including the state, with the exception of criminals.

 In the context of temporal life civil rights are easily violated and the violations travel down the stream of history forgotten or unnoticed to commonly, by the people of the day caught up in their own concerns. It is important though to secure civil rights boundaries against gross violation by the rich and privileged that can use information to exploit Americans and make life more difficult for them, because they can.

My late father was a four year vet of the Second World War. I was on active duty in combat arms when the Soviets withdrew a quarter million soldiers from East Germany. That was a Velvet era revolution and there isn't anything wrong with peace and prosperity. Participation in a free market should be supported for all Americans including veterans. The principles of free speech and free business participation a prosperous green free market with regulations shaping development toward green peace should never be impinged. No one should be excluded from the participating in the free market because a load of wise-guys with wealth amuse themselves poisoning the well.

 Millionaires and billionaires often want to tilt the economic field to their advantage. They can become like a black hole warping space time so all economic profit and political power flows their way. Exploiting information is one of the methods they can use. Information is power. It can be censored, data-mined or marginalized with equal opportunity to repress civil rights to go about one’s economic affairs without interference by the rich corporate world. When one has achieved wealth- millions or billions, one should watch one’s mouth and violations of the civil rights of the poor and middle class that aren’t cinched and actually need to improve or at least sustain basic economic vital interests. There may be sports millionaires that are barely literate of course, yet they are an exception and are showpieces to provide cover for the more calculating rich. Entertainment rich comprise just 5% of the top 1% of income earners in the United States, and they can be swells for-themselves working against the interests of the 99% promoting a wealth of unedifying trash.
