Re: democrazy - a quote for the day


Isn't it amazing how easily some lambs can be conditioned to be mislead? In many typical uses of the word, conspiracy is just a fancy word for " plan ", and no, of course, we all know that it is quite rare for two or more people to plan to do something illegal and or harmful to the people at large.

another quote - If property rights are to be diffused in industrial society, natural resources and all important forms of capital will have to be collectively owned.... This clearly means that, if democracy is to survive in the United States, it must aband on its individualistic affiliations in the sphere of economics.... Within these limits, as I see it, our democratic tradition must of
necessity evolve and gradually assume an essentially collectivistic pattern.
The important point is that fundamental changes in the economic system are imperative. Whatever services historic capitalism may have rendered in the past, and they have been many, its days are numbered. With its dedication [to] the principle of selfishness, its exaltation of the profit motive, its reliance upon the forces of competition, and its placing of property above human rights, it will either have to be displaced altogether or changed so radically in form and spirit that its identity will be completely lost.
