I believe this
assertion will resonate across all countries on all continents:
“I ask all political economists, all moralists
and those who believe they count for something in this
world,
to calculate the number of individuals who must be
condemned to misery, overwork,
demoralisation, childhood death, absolute
ignorance, overwhelming misfortune and total poverty
in order to
produce one rich man”
I have
seldom come across such a sentiment written with such potency. I ask that each
of you who read these words to pass the message to others – perhaps, just
perhaps, a difference can be made.
It must!
Until next time
(with humility),

Just excellent, P.S. One of the most "potent" from you. I have not come across this person before but will check out his work - seems to be a lot for discussion and I thank you.

So true! The difference must be made, I absolutely agree. Nevertheless, the path towards change is an extremely arduous one.

Mark, thank you. Yes within a few words lies a wealth of thinking - and room for action. Get the class considering it.
ReplyDeleteLucana I agree its tough, but a path very worth following, I think you would agree...
