Affirmative reaction the person responsible for hiring employees crosses the line and illegally excludes qualified people from consideration because of their personal, political, spiritual, and/or economic beliefs.
Monica could you please explain your employment practices?
Yes, we have affirmative reaction. We exclude everyone who will not agree with us on every decision. We want some one who will not question bad judgement and illegal activities. This is a very open policy, many of these people are highly unqualified, and who would not normally be hired.

Get the Affirmative reaction mug.A dysfunctional condition created when those of extreme wealth such as the 0.1% use their power and enablers to disproportional influence beholden politicians to generate highly distorted institutional policies that unfairly favor those with the highest concentrations of wealth at expense of society as a whole. This is especially true when they use their power to hurt those most in need. An example, of such a policy, maybe to borrow a trillion and a half during an economic boom to give a tax break to the wealthiest of wealthy. While at the same time eliminating much of the safety net and greatly increasing the cost of higher education for the middle class during times of most need.

6. Rigging the election system.
7. Selective enforcement and interpretation of the law. Create legal barriers for the poor.

Excessive wealth disorder biggest problem is not that it preserves and protects those with wealth, it is that the preferred method is to promote unfair advantages and subsidies and often environmental destruction. Often they promote dysfunctional and hostile government practices to assure citizens do not go to the government for solutions.

Get the Cotton Money mug.Powerful interests that are not subjected to normal legal proceedings, but instead are allowed to settle out of court and out of criminal charges, and keep their profits. In rare cases where prosecution and related settlements are even attempted, they seem outrageously small in relation to huge profits and the blatant disregard for the law by the perpetrators. Many would be easy to prosecute because the evidence is well documented by a large paper trail, and has thousands of potential witnesses that support the prosecutors case.
In many cases the "too bigs...." are responsible for massive amounts of damage to the economy and creating devastating personal losses for hundreds of thousands of people.

The banks have developed a fail safe way of robbing and defrauding their customers and tax payers, by pleading they are too big to fail, and too big to be punished.

Get the too big to be punished mug.When a political vendetta is focused on local leaders constituents because he won't support a major politician. E.g., jamming up traffic for 1000's of constituents. Many constituents may unwittingly end up focusing their anger on the local leader, who is helpless in such a situation. The vendetta is obvious to the local leader, however it is hard to prove. When he protests he is mocked and humiliated, and made to look like a paranoid, delusional conspiracy theorist or incompetent idiot. The wide publicity from the vendetta creates an exponential impact on other non-supporters of the major politician, so they get the message and jump in line so they do not end up being humiliated, or in political gridlock.
Since the real perpetrator always has plausible deniability he can claim to be blindsided, heartbroken, embarrassed, humiliated and betrayed by his zealots, and his stupid goons. The ability of the perpetrator to transform himself into the victim by playing to people's empathy, sympathy, and by using an army of spin doctors who can saturated the media with a new image is a true accomplishment. The perpetrator's success may end up further enhancing his ability to inspire fear in those who may not aspire to come to his rescue. This works best when a complete account of conspiracy theory cannot show a direct connection, such as by a paper trail, or by testimony from stupid aides and appointees.

Get the Time for traffic problems in Fort Lee mug.The exploitation of digital media to unfairly influence the outcome or to create an unjust result. It can be a form of cheating and illicit practices that take advantage of and exploit media users. In some cases, media users are programmed to go viral with misinformation or disinformation. Much like when an arson strikes a match when the conditions are favorable for a wildfire to spread in ways that are most damaging to the environment.
The Russians have learned quickly that they can positively influence the outcome of an election through digital exploitation. much easier than conventional war. Surprisingly they have the help of a large minority of the public who support their candidate right or wrong.
