Show me the slides I want to see the evidence myself. All I am seeing now is the words of various reporters.

If even the governement moves toward profits of its companies, what the future will bring to the population that do not fit in that plan? .. citizenship could be reduced to people being mere tools for profit..
Dystopic? yeah.. but just let the Koch brothers and people like them, take the power to see if this would not happen..
