Beck is simply using one mythology to battle another.

He's using religion to combat government.

In this country, government is much more of a threat than religion.

Bah, all three of them — Government®, Business™, Religion© — are corrupt to the core and each feeds off the other. Your calling out of government institutions is accurate. It's also incomplete.

Too bad it couldn't simply be about good governance, profitability based on real accounting, and enlightening spirits to help them grow.

At least the devil guy is mostly covered up. They're ALL danged annoying though. Sometimes I wish the riders would smack 'em or something. And of course there's always that idiot who's trying to get a close-up shot, and gets a little TOO close. Just watch the race people, nobody wants to see YOU.
