Peru's earthquake & the Shock Doctrine

"An earthquake is like a war situation arising from a foreign invasion. In situations like this we need a single chain of command, with less democracy and a more vertical command structure."
- Peruvian President Alan GarcĂ­a

As can be seen by the above quote and through out the article (http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=39134) the earthquake in Peru is being used by their local gov't and multinational contractors (Bechtel, Haliburton, ETC.) to impose ineffeciencent hierarchical measures to disrupt and retard spontaneous and effective self-organization.
