RE: The nature of secrecy is to remain secret

in #politics7 years ago

My initial thought would be that the elite don't really collect/keep data on themselves so much. The surveillance state is more likely to be surveilling the people than itself.

Sort:  

They collect everything. They run computer analysis on everything. The lure of power being as strong as it is I have no doubt what-so-ever they have databases on every person who holds any power at all. Its how they got General Patraeus, its how they got Justice Roberts to violate his principles and make an inconceivable ruling on Obamacare. Its probably why every politician who gets to Washington after promising to serve their constituency (and maybe even meaning it) turns into another typical DC swamp monster.
