When All Roads Lead to the Standoff: How Corporate Governance Fuels White Supremacy

Using Eye-witness Accounts To Narrate The Terrifying, Failed Efforts At Communication During The Standoffs At Ruby Ridge And In Waco, Tx, Haskin Offers A Psycho-social Theory For Militant White Movements Influenced By Political Economics. The Heart-stopping Dialogues As The Authorities In Both Cases Make Their Erroneous Calculations Are Dramatic, But So Is The Idea That Such Events Can Furnish Essential Clues To Success For Those Who Are Responsible For De-fusing Such Conflicts. The Ruby Ridge Standoff And The Branch Davidian Siege Were Symptoms Of A Broader Battle Between The Goals Of Corporate Governance And The Hatred Of White Supremacists. Haskin Show That By Instilling Insecurity, The Corporate Power Makes A Mockery Of Citizens' Free Will. Bred By A Different Set Of Goals And Grievances, White Supremacists Would Use And Sacrifice Anyone (whites Included) To Achieve Their Whites-only World. What If White Supremacists And Those Who Favor Corporate Governance Find Common Ground? The Worst Of Both Their Goals--grotesque Levels Of Deprivation, Debt Peonage, Survival Slavery, Ethnic Cleansing, And Racial And Religious Violence--may Be Our Future.
