does not fall into oblivion. The slow descent into hell from where we were almost out,
seems to be picking up again. I have seen it for a long time and fear it. The dangers that
are piling up only increase an ever more pressing and oppressive need for security ...
leaving the field open to the economic and political elites to strengthen their already
present oligarchy.
