The ruling class (presently the global capitalist class -- character of capital is global as it is no more geocentric either in terms of source or investment) ideas are ruling ideas also that are created and perpetuated by state's ideological apparatuses -- the family, the apologetic think-tank intellectuals; educational institutions; the media being the most effective. In 1980s 45 corporate controlled the mainstream media in the US that number has come down to 5. I was going through the undergraduate curriculum of some US universities that seems to be aimed at making the student jack of all while blunting the edge of their faculties of inquisitiveness;rebellion; innovation and invention, in short at preventing them from application of mind, the act that distinguishes human species from other beings. The cyber world has given us opportunity to create an alternative media through non-impassioned serious debate over the major contradictions of the global system -- metaphorically, the contradiction of 1% and 99%. The lead for the future revolution has to come from the people of US, the leader of the imperialist global capital, from the people appeased by a small crumb from the imperialist plunder and jingoistic nationalism. The poor of the US pay for devastation of the poor in US and other countries. Let us all unite and make a 4th International of the world's working people to create a new beautiful world with our collective wisdom.
