Over the last 8 years news outlets have only become more corporatized since 2007. If you've never watched 'Orwell Rolls in His Grave' here's part 2 which obviously I am posting here primarily because 2016 presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders is one of the featured speakers:
There are several parts in 'Orwell Rolls in His Grave' so here's a link to part 1 in case you want it.
corporatism + statism = fascism
Since I'll be enjoying some medical intervention the rest of this week and have not have a chance to investigate the planets of 2016 candidate Ben Carson I was glad to discover a presentation posted by Tom Jordan which may interest you. A contact between Mercury (thinking, thought processes, perception, communications) and Neptune (the Divine Source, but also self-deception, deception of others, illusion, unreality, irrationality, fantasy, fraud) in Carson's natal chart and psyche was not completely unexpected!
As you know, at least one other Republican presidential candidate was born with a Mercury-Neptune contact, a square creating distorted thinking, in his natal chart and as you know he's somewhat prone to telling huge whoppers from time to time himself--often without consciously realizing it.
My thought is that a certain global agenda must be followed or 'presidents' wouldn't be selected for the Oval Office to begin with, no matter the political party. But let's hear Thom's answer to this very good question:
#StopTPP
Well, this clinches it. Thom is definitely more courageous than I am!
In case you missed it this feature is a must-see from John Oliver:

Astro-Note: when we think of fire, blazes, or arson we think of fiery Mars which is now in late Virgo and approaching its 1949 position in the natal horoscope of Indonesia @00Lib28 in the country's 4th house of Domestic Scene and Homeland after passing natal Saturn @19Vir26 (natal IC 11Vir23.) Mars-Saturn is known as the death axis and as David Pakman reports, there have been deaths in Indonesia along with other hardships due to these conflagrations.
For those who may wish to take a look, here is the natal data for Indonesia as given in The World Book of Horoscopes by Nicholas Campion:
Indonesia: December 27, 1949 when "the Dutch gave independence to the United States of Indonesia--"; the horoscope is set for 9:22 am GMT Djakarta, Indonesia (then the new capital) with 11Gem49 rising, MC 11Pis23, and 10Cap11 = 8th cusp where transiting Pluto, planet of wealth, stealth, transformation, and death, has recently entered. Natal Mars @00Lib28 (a Cardinal World Point of Manifestation) opposes natal Moon (the people) in 10th house @6Ari36 (Aries ruled by Mars); the country's 7th house Sun (leadership) @5Cap18 has obviously been transited and transformed by Pluto, a time when the use, misuse, and abuse of power and control are spotlighted.
Are the American people too apathetic to Stop this draconian Orwellian "trade deal" from Hades?
corporatism + statism = fascism
Once again it's time for the 10th annual G-20 Summit which is being held in Antalya, Turkey. The event spreads before and after for various groups but the main leaders get together on November 15 and 16, 2015 with Sun (leadership) in secretive Scorpio and the Moon in ambitious Capricorn. And of course the Moon's sign clues us in on the mood of the two days--of the attendees and of the public--and with Capricorn, we think serious, ambitious, mature, and perhaps restrictive.
Naturally this combination of energies includes sign rulers Mars and Pluto (Scorpio) and Saturn (Capricorn), planet of government, law, and business. Obviously representatives from each level of management will be in attendance and the summit's Scorpionic interests include issues of control and manipulation along with Big Business, the occult, and matters of death and transformation.
And if we look closer at the Sun Scorpio-Moon Capricorn blend we find a practical Water-Earth condition in which a determination to do what needs to be done is uppermost. This suggests a group of tough and tenacious people, some possessing a dark, brooding intensity with a streak of self-righteous judgmentalism to their natures. Or perhaps judgment is what is expected from them along with being called to account (Saturn.)
At some point during the summit the Moon (emotions) will conjoin wealthy, powerful Pluto (13Cap+) so although few if any details may be released publicly we can glean a few potential results such as: extreme emotions being violently expressed or shouted, vanity offended, actions toward objectives compete with sentimentality, personal insults hurled, fanatics and crusaders strive toward goals without regard for other people. (Ebertin.) And of course, when the Moon reaches Pluto, the ongoing Uranus-Pluto square (though waning at the moment) is triggered which is most likely a reference to protests against world leaders attending G-20 Summit 2015 and what is assumed to be draconian measures that few populations are eager to experience.
So whatever hidden agenda the G-20 Summit organizers have and plan to execute upon the world, let us close with three famous quotes from people who were born under the Sun Scorpio-Moon Capricorn personality blend for to me all three quotes seem to apply:
"Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash." - General George Patton."Puritanism...helps us enjoy our misery while we are inflicting it on others." - Marcel Ophuls.
"He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow." - George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans).
