    I don’t believe they are fully controlled opposition, and I think my comments here have been generally explaining the nuance. With that I do think they could be fairly described as engineered or cultivated opposition, where the systems and power structures have been built in a way that allows for little change that would disrupt power.

      That is absolutely true. The system is designed to resist any attempt to restrain capital and it’s Beneficiaries.
