"The American people are stupid to believe the CIA is out there to protect them. This agency is out to protect the interests of the less than 1% and to make the world safe for the fortune 500."

Rashad, here's Parenti's take on the same issue:

"Recently I pointed out that the police do not defend us, rather their goal is social control and defense of [corporate] property. One correspondent [Daniel] answered that, sure, "it's protection of property, if I work my ass off to grow a crop, no one else is entitled to steal it all away from me."
To that I would respond: those, such as Monsanto, who steal crops from small farmers, are protected by the police (and courts and rich lawyers). On those rare occasions when the police protect the common populace such as you Daniel (who "work my ass off,") then you can take pride in them. But when they represent the corporate class, leaving small farmers like you not with a small crop but with a lot of crap, they are not working for you. You put up the taxes that pays for their tasers, grenades, tear gas, helmets, clubs, stun guns, revolvers, body armor and other instruments of oppression that are never used on the finance captains of Wall Street but on those who protest Wall St. The coppers beat up popular protest movements such as the Occupy Movement with much more dedication and determination and training than in any treatment accorded the criminals on high who enlist their services and command their efforts."
