The USA – a Three-Party State
We live in an
age of greed. From the right,
it might be called a greed for money, disguised as self-determinism and free
enterprise. From the left, it might be called a greed for power,
disguised as universal rights and justice.
This is old news.
Nowadays we see a new force, the greed for information. Currently, it is merely a left-leaning political auxiliary making lots of money. Mostly what it does is unknown except for information gathering. The processing algorithms are complex and accurate. But they use can be modified to identify, to fractionate, to discriminate, and ultimately to censor. All too easy.

But soon, the
information moguls will come to a basic conclusion. And that is...
Why do we need either the right or left? We control the flow of information, and we read it all. Therefore we control all.* They control, but what they want is not exactly known. Who are the “they?” Simply put, they form an oligarchy of leaders of a half-dozen or so of the major information and media firms. This could be a reason cloud services, or medical and banking information are so important. All yield more information and consequently more power.

Even now, if
I was very rich and asked to support a new IPO (Initial Public Offering), I could request a complete information audit of all people
involved, information dating back to high school records. Even the clever player, having blocked
information, yields information by this alone.
The current
socialist-mainstream Dems bickering on the left may soon be considered on a
par with Baptist-Methodist bickering of a century ago. Likewise for the
Tea-Party – mainstream Reps on the right.
Pop quiz: Name one person, excepting possibly the President*, who has more actual power than the CEO of Google.
