They donate to the political parties (both democrat, republican, conservative and liberal). They use the political system, the media and our institutions to attack progressive-ism on all fronts.<br /><br />Capitalism in its pure unadulterated form, free from the constrains of "regulations" is their goal, to facilitate the unending and uninterrupted making of profit.<br /><br />The climate, the poor, the little animals are not the targets, they are the collateral damage.<br /><br />At the root of the neo-liberal agenda is the ideological belief in the free market, that humans are greedy by nature, and as a result the best way to order our society is to admit that we are greedy, and allow this greed to to be unhindered by governments.<br /><br />Until we see this as a political, ideological or economic struggle the solidarity required by the people to win this struggle is unlikely to materialize.<br /><br />We need to make believers and spread hope with a coherent message through the old fashioned conversion of people through their education and enlightenment to see the world as we see it.<br /><br />We need to dispel the myth that we are greedy by nature and that the best way to order our society is to submit to our greed and allow these evils to go unchecked. We need to inspire people to believe that we are social creatures by nature and that through sharing and cooperation can we shape our world into a place we are proud to call home.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13427664795508718431noreply@blogger.com
