Can we use our "inequity aversion" to topple the one percent?

Kelpie Wilson, Truthout: "Sometimes, when I feel my head exploding over the sorry state of our poor, overheated planet, I find it helps to step back from immersion in our species' affairs and assume the vantage point of the disinterested alien or far-future anthropologist. An accurate analysis of the extreme disfunctionality of human society and the wreckage of our planet is not possible from within the contemporary belief systems of capitalist-communist, christian-muslim, democrat-republican, etc. As alien-anthropologists, let's examine homo sapiens in 2012 and see what we find."
