Chris Hedges: “Death of the Liberal Class.” The gradual corruption and

decades it was a modest curb against the worst excesses of power. Once

liberal church, collapsed, the poor, the working class, and even the
middle class no longer had a defender, thus creating a vacuum that is
increasingly filled by opportunists and charlatans.
