Odd is it not that in George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984 the “Ministry of Truth” was directed top down by a tyrannical government as opposed to today?

Today the “Ministry of Truth” is an amalgamation of unbelievably rich progressives in our corporations and media. They today are the unseen hand of tyrannical government. They are one and the same.

One must ask why the corporations have become progressives as they are supposed to be capitalists. The answer is quite simple. They support short term gains (It is nice to fly around in a Gulf stream 500) and progressives are corrupt and thus are useful in their business plans. In the end these progressive corporations will be ended in the interests of The State and their corporate boards will be part of The State or eliminated. This paragraph is mostly from Ann Ryan’s “Atlas Shrugged.”

George Orwell got it mostly right. He just missed a few minor details. Ann Ryan got it exactly right. Both were brilliant.

Harvey Winston is us, he lost. Pray we do not.

I might as well just go pal around with Orren Boyle and Dr. Stadler (sp?), so that I don’t starve to death.
