What Curtis argues in his documentaries - that politicians now are mere birocrats at the mercy of the markets - seems truer than ever.

There is no place for decisions that do not sit well with the markets, unless you live in a dictatorship - Russia, China, etc.

That means all creative or unproven political decisions will be punished by the markets leaving us in a rather stagnant world ruled by market forces.

To which of his documentaries are you referring? Adam Curtis, right?
