[BC] HD Kills

As usual, Rich is being too logical. Your (our) 
media will continue to teach that Kahn is an 
emotionally disturbed idiot. This, and similar 
input (read money) will consolidate all 
communications into something that big business 
and its government agents can control. Small 
privately owned radio stations are uncontrollable 
and, therefore, dangerous to the ?new world 
order.? I couldn't make something like this up if I tried!

Maybe these are too extreme, perhaps improbable

How about this:

Most multinational companies are now aligning 
themselves with what they believe are the new 
world order?s most powerful constituents. For 
your enlightenment: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery . Because of 
the power of communications (it can be used to 
educate), it is mandatory that the world 
government control it. Otherwise, these 
independent communications outlets might be used 
to synchronize unauthorized political activity, 
possibly bringing down the government.

Yes, Leonard Kahn is as wacky as the rest of the 
red necks that started America. As long as there 
are guys like him around, the "effete 
intellectual snobs" won't be able to tell you when you can take a crap.
