[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 4258409, member: 1132"] Reedman, I'd really like to thank you for posting this. I was unaware it even existed. It's a LONG but engaging read. The perspective of the writer is decidedly left of center and underdog oriented, which makes it fascinating that it contains some of the very same complaints about the Kaiser machine that conservatives hold. Between my own observations and some of the revelatory content of this article, I'd say Kaiser and his acolytes view themselves as benevolent, behind the scenes dictators, whose positive contributions outweigh any negative impacts their heavy-handedness create. Truer words haven't been spoken regarding the completely hands-off, speak no evil of Kaiser World within the media, arts and industry in the Tulsa community. The reason Kaiser critics are so easily dismissed as antisemitic troglodytes is because everyone with power and prominence in the area are completely afraid to speak out. While I don't think Kaiser is anywhere near as corrosive as Soros, there are many parallels in how their power and influence operate. They both view themselves as directing our society long after their deaths. I doubt it even occurs to them that making their personal machine so powerful, doesn't immunize it from the effects of a bad future leader, i.e. the NRA under Wayne LaPierre. Anyway, thanks for the lead! [/QUOTE]
