In an essential sense, they are not anti-establishment

I could add to this list of cardboard anti-establishment figures. It really is sad that no serious critique of the economic structure that leads to war is possible for these guys. They cannot address how a consumption economy, and overproduction are connected to war. They cannot talk about how the concentration of wealth has distorted the political economy, and they cannot talk about how "free trade" has created an economy in which war is the only stimulus that works.

The growth imperative of Capitalism, especially in its current stage of monopoly, leads inexorably to war and imperialism.

Why did you bold the names 6 "experts"? It seems to me that the wealthy "haves" ("ruling class") has remained in power (and GROWN in power) over the centuries with their successful technique of "divide and conquer" without any successful revolution of the great mass of "have-nots" against them. Is your writing the catalyst that can change this situation, or will it be something else?

For some reason some names wouldn’t unbold when I tried to do it.

I write in the hope of making a difference.
