How do government and entertainment collude? Just as government does with any power nexus, for what is government but brokers in power? (Mencken called them brokers in pillage, which is a coarser but more accurate description.) As government makes nothing, all it can do is coerce. This coercion, ideally limited to taxes, has always been expandable to collusion with power to extort or enforce additional monies from an unobservant, badgered, or strong-armed populace.
