Here’s an eye-roller for you from Cain TV:

Maybe you remember Occupy Wall Street. It was a short-lived, flash-in-the-pan, street festival in which iPhone carrying college kids were invited to camp in the road and defecate on police cars. Oh, and while they were there, they were supposed to use all that technology that their parents had purchased them to crab about how evil corporations were. It was idiotic, and it died a mercifully quick death.

Now, one of the movement’s founders has a new plan for America. She likes to describe our shared corporatist future as “post capitalist” and she hopes to make it happen as quickly as possible. To that end, she’s set up a petition at WhiteHouse.gov which asks her favorite President to disband the U.S. government, and give control of the country to Google’s Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt:

WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
Transfer all federal administrative authority to the tech industry.
Mister Obama,

I have the utmost respect for you Sir. America is a great country and you’ve worked hard to bring its affairs in order. But I’m afraid you’re fighting a battle that can’t be won. The Washington regime has become incompetent over the years. It is no longer able to face the difficult challenges that lay ahead. I think it’s time for a peaceful change.

I implore you to call a national referendum to do the following:

1. Retire all government employees with full pensions.

2. Transfer administrative authority to the tech industry.

3. Appoint Eric Schmidt CEO of America.

It’s time for the U.S. Regime to politely take its exit from history and do what’s best for America. The tech industry can offer us good governance and prevent further American decline.

—Justine Tunney

Yes, that’s real, and yes, it’s actually up on the White House website right now.

Schmidt is currently the 138th richest person on Earth, with assets somewhere around $8 billion. A quick look at Justine Tunney’s resume shows that she is currently an entry-level coder for — you guessed it — your new overlords at Google. So much for income inequality and an end to cronyism.

No. Of course they’re not capitalists. They just love hauling in reams of cash while helping the government monitor the activities of private citizens.

Actually, at one point in her ramblings, Tunney did manage to admit that Google is nothing more than a profit-driven “megacorp” but don’t worry.  It’s a benevolent profit-driven megacorp. …

So congratulations, Occupiers!  The founder of your little club works for a massive cash-hungry corporation which she foolishly thinks is “post-capitalist”, and she wants to give the company total control of the United States. You crackpots must be so very, very, proud.

I am shocked. Shocked, that is, that someone in Madison didn’t dream this up.

By the way: At last report it had 25 signatures.
