Crats

The people running America, its politics, its media and its corporations, might well be called crats, after the semantic fantail signifying members of a ruling body -- as in plutocrats, autocrats, mediacrats, technocrats, and bureaucrats, just to name a few. Crats are characterized by their loyalty to institutional and professional procedures and values above all else. Unlike normal humans, which have to be cloned in order to be copied, crats imitate each other by choice. This is why one can gain a sense of deja vu even before completing one zapper cycle on cable TV.   - Sam Smith
