"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Re-organizing the Federal Government to Crush Opposition
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2012-01-15 02:00
"One of the few virtues of the federal government has been its inefficiency. With functions spread out across different agencies and duplicated powers and responsibilities, it has often proved unable to harm the economy as much as it could owing to power games and competition among agencies. Now the president wants to change all that. He wants a ruthlessly efficient government to intrude in all aspects of our lives without internal checks and balances."

Federal Gov't = Business Elite's Middle Management. Obama's just a tool of an efficient, interlocking network of boardroom elite capitalists.
Those same hierarchical elites are the ones paying for the religio-economic think tanks promoting laissez-faire capitalism, which absolves business of any wrong doing.
Basically, the gov't is the "cut-out man." If anybody gets hurt, the "cut-out man" gets blamed; the elite get to say "I didn't have anything to do with it; hell, I'm all for freedom!"
Plausible deniability through libertarian think tanks! It's pretty easy to find priestcraft whores to preach the message, and useful idiots who believe it, like you.
