You're Within The Norms
Edward Mandell House, a highly influential, unelected advisor to early 20th-century U.S. Presidents, particularly Woodrow Wilson, and his controversial 1912 novel, Philip Dru: Administrator. The novel serves as a blueprint for House’s vision of an expert-led, administrative state, demonstrating his skepticism towards traditional democratic processes and advocating for benevolent authoritarianism to implement sweeping societal reforms.

The Supreme Court case Remmer v. United States establishes a vital safeguard for the integrity of the jury system by addressing the dangers of outside influence. The Court ruled that any unauthorized communication or tampering with a juror during a trial is viewed as presumptively prejudicial, meaning it is assumed to have unfairly harmed the defendant.

This legal standard places a heavy burden on the government to prove, through a formal hearing, that such interactions were actually harmless. Ultimately, the ruling serves to protect a defendant’s right to an impartial trial by ensuring that any potential bribery or interference is transparently scrutinized rather than ignored.

According to Parenti, the system is inherently irrational and prone to constant crises, often using recessions as tools to discipline labor and lower expectations among the working class. Ultimately, he suggests that modern capitalism functions as a rational pursuit of irrational ends, prioritizing short-term profit even at the expense of environmental survival and democratic integrity.
