But regardless, the corporate aristocracy is of a cloth, a networked ruling class with media and political arms that respond sympathetically in advancing and securing their caste. No conspiracy needed, just common cause. So no, I do not need linear, causal proof to suspect the connection - just years of observing a complex social system. The proof, such as it is, comes from observing the echoes of this event and the next, and the next, to see if they reveal the synomorphic patterns of inverted totalitarianism, or the bright shining village that Hillary wants to raise your children in.
Interestingly, your response suggests the former, informed or otherwise. But that is one data point in a social sea. I have my predictions for what happens next...
Place your bets.
