I note this article is dated 26th of this month and, presumably, the decision to deploy the unit Stateside was also in the last few days? If that is the case then surely the fear is that Mr. & Mrs. Taxpayer may revolt to the plan to bleed them for decades to come to bail out the banks and at the same time (the "shock & awe" aspect) object to the transporting of the political process into fewer and fewer elite hands?
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
