In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss how, if we talk about robots controlling the media now that they control the content, as well as controlling the markets, do they therefore also control the politicians? They also ask if 'poison pills' that circumvent democracy by guaranteeing profits come before the choices of the people. In the second half, Max interviews Xavier Hawk about Permacredits and Colony Earth.
