In our first hour this week, we hear Noam Chomsky speak on "Class War". In the second hour, some examples of class war mechanisms by the corporate state against the citizen: excerpts from an article on Operation Garden Plot, a plan to use the military to crack down on dissent in America, e-watch, corporations track critics on the web, and the Battle of Wellfleet, a small town is forced to accept cellular transmissions towers after courts rule their ordinances violate "corporate civil rights." We conclude with Michael Parenti's speech, "Who Governs?", a detailed analysis of how elites dominate government policy and offices.
