Naomi Klein's 'The Shock Doctrine' now a documentary

Naomi Klein's book 'The Shock Doctrine" concerning 'Disaster Capitalism' is being brought to the screen by film makers Michael Winterbottom and Matt Whitecross.

Klein's 2007 book, which details an alternate economic history of the last 30 years, will be updated by this documentary to reflect 2008's economic crisis/meltdown and is now being shown at the Berlin Film Festival in not-quite-completed form.

Naomi Klein believes that the recent banking bailouts amount to "a massive transfer of wealth from public to private hands" which is a demonstrable fact, we know. And we also know where the banks' massive debts have gone - onto the public ledger.

And Voila! Hitler's power-grabbing tactics come round once again!

Yet the documentary doesn't aspire to be a conspiracy theory ode, but a chance for the film's viewers to look at the consequences of the ideas of neo-liberalism's economic guru, Milton Friedman, and make up their minds if they agree with him - or not.

My suspicion is that the long-jobless of the US and the rest of the globe may be inspired to burn Old Miltie in effigy.

What do you think?

Here a SO'W post from July 2008 which relates 2008's economic crisis and banking bailouts with Uranus-Chiron, the 'radical political reformers' duo, and another from Nov 2008 marking the oppressive Pluto-Chiron midpoint at MC, the Aspirational Point of any horoscope chart, to Inauguration 2009.

You'll find links to several articles in both posts, but the second link contains Ralph Nader's 'Uncle Tom' label for Pres. Barack Obama and what Fox News did with it.

Milton Friedman's 'free market' legacy

Today I received a link from astrologer Alex D'Atria to Stephen Lendman's article concerning economist Milton Friedman, entitled "Capitalism and Freedom" Unmasked which gives an overview of the coups and destruction of nations going on in the world--including 9/11.

You may remember that Nobel Prize winner Friedman died Nov 16, 2006 and was glowingly eulogized in the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere saying that "few people in human history have contributed more to the achievement of human freedom."

That's how globalists propagandize the disasterous and destructive social engineering occurring in the US, Iraq, Haiti, and all over the world.

Gee, thanks, fellas--if this is good, I don't wanna see your idea of bad.

Milton Friedman born in Brooklyn, NY; July 31, 1912: Sun Leo, Moon in late Aquarius or Pisces. His Pre-natal Eclipse Series: 4 North which manifested last on June 10, 2002, Brady's Predictive Astrology gives 4N as:

A difficult Series with restrictions, restraints, inhibitions, and illusions as the hallmarks; events occur which seem to block the individual who is prone to misjudgement of strengths or of the situation; best advice is to wait until passing of Eclipse period before taking action. (April 17, 1912, 27 Aries.)
