America’s Collective Delusion Must Endure: Domestic Genocide of an Economic Nature Jason Miller: "I have written an analysis of this past week's Sixty Minutes segment about the alarming number of teen attacks on the homeless in the United States. Sixty Minutes concluded that the homicides and beatings are (in large part) the result of a popular DVD series called Bum Fights. I assert that the underlying motivations for the murders are woven deeply into the spiritually vacuous social, political, and economic fabric of the United States. Going further, I argue that the policies and decisions implemented by the ruling elites in the United States are causing a form of economic genocide against the homeless. (Not unlike the economic genocide waged against the Iraqi people via the brutal US­driven UN sanctions). Unique read on the situation? Yes. Extreme? Perhaps. Plausible? Yes."
