The success of Wall St. and the increase in wealth and number of billionaires is inversely proportional to the health of the real economy that supports the lives of more than 90% of the population. What fictions obscure this obvious truth.

NEOLIBERALISM is PARASITISM!!! Korporate Krapitalism is Killing The Earth!! Modern Capitalism's "EXTERNALITIES" are the unaccounted for costs that are resulting in planetary pollution, poisoning & psychopatholgy - resulting in the possible ending for all life, so yes - "What success"?! Also consider ...

"In 2003 - Canadian filmmakers Jennifer Abbott and Mark Achbar, teamed up with writer Joel Bakan on the penetrating and popular documentary THE CORPORATION, which posed the provocative question, “If the corporation is legally a person .. what kind of person is it?” Analyzing the corporation as a patient, the filmmakers found the corporation to be ... “Pathologically Self-Interested.” Now, almost two decades later with the world in crisis,Abbott & co-director Bakan re-examine the 'patient' asking if the corporation has changed for the better, and, if not, what can be done about it."

"THE CORPORATION is a Canadian documentary film written by Joel Bakan & directed by Mark Achbar & Jennifer Abbott. The documentary examines the modern-day corporation .. considering its legal status as a class of person and evaluating its behavior towards society and the world at large, as a psychiatrist might evaluate an ordinary person and this is explored through specific examples.Bakan wrote the book - 'The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power', during the filming of the documentary."

Further consider The Ruling Class Ideology that we live under but that dare not speak its name:

Finally 10 years after the start of OWS, don't forget: "Inside Job (2010 Full Documentary Movie)" ...

ad iudicium?!
