Yes, that report is truly strange as it states everything so obviously and concisely, the language is incredibly easy to read and understand, and yet the only thing the government is actually concerned with was civil unrest. So much so that they might even be hardening our military because of it. Although, that is just a theory.

It makes sense, if you think about it. All our country's problems are self-inflicted; the system is acting exactly as intended.

The individual culprits' intents may not be exactly to revert the country back to feudalism (or to mask-off fascism), but collectively and effectively, it is what it is, and none of them are willing to change course (because it would eat into their bottom line). All the various rentiers that truly constitute the government and institutions of this country (the cartels/oligopolies, landlords, etc) are moving this country exactly in that direction.

Exactly, it's shockingly blunt and honest. They don't try to sugar coat it in any way, which was really amazing to me. Perhaps it wasn't expect to be made public?
