ENJOY THE NEW SOCIAL GAME: PLUTOCRACY! Plutocracy (from Ancient Greek ploutos, meaning “wealth”, and kratos, meaning “power, rule”) is rule by the wealthy, or power provided by wealth. The combination of both plutocracy and oligarchy is called plutarchy. Plutocracy tends to convert political and economic regimes into Plutonomies: this term (from Greek terms “ploutos” (see above) and “nomos”, meaning “law”) was initially coined by analysts at Citigroup in 2005 to describe the incredible growth of the U.S. economy during that period despite increasing interest rates, commodity prices and an inflated national debt. Citigroup analysts argued that as such an economy continues to grow in the face of contradictory elements, the more important the society’s ultra rich become to maintaining such growth. The analysts also believed that in addition to the U.S., Canada, Great Britain and China are also becoming plutonomies.

Protesters demonstrated over the Amina Filali case and called for a change in rape laws in Rabat, Morocco, on March 17, 2012. Filali was a 15-year-old rape victim who was pressured into marrying her rapist who was 26 year old. She was forced into marrying her rapist to restore honor to her and her family. When the abuse continued during her marriage, Filali ingested rat poison and killed herself. In Morocco, a rapist who marries his victim can escape prosecution but activists are calling for a change in the system. This is because Moroccan laws exempt a rapist from punishment if he agrees to marry his victim.

More U.S. Soldiers Killed Themselves Than Died in Combat in 2010. Something seems pretty fucked up about this.
