It is a pity but I wonder if every country does not have one or more of these people. It is probably false memory but I remember media that gave information approximated accuracy but I guess that was before profit at any cost became the mantra an...

In my original comment, I was not saying that any freedom in any transaction is evil or will necessarily lead to evil. I was saying, by facetious implication, that ordinarily no one expects any collective or communal human enterprise of any comple...

There is no one on this planet that can articulate better than Chomsky.  "The consequences are dire", states Chomsky.  Yes.   So dire that we have no choice but to get ready for the end.  Nothing can save us now. &nbs...

Oh, my goodness!  The free market is a terrible thing and cannot be tolerated any longer.  How can anyone support this?  It is a disease similar to Nationalism/Patriotism that eventually, always, becomes vicious racism, if allowed t...

Aristotle defined the central question of politics as, "How shall we order our lives together?" Professor Chomsky is right about the effect of externalities. But I think he's too hard on the "free-market/invisible hand" theorists, who maintain th...

I like that natural language being used in this essay. The topics are likely to be present in conversation today. The style is engaging for me with the matter-of-fact, tangible anecdotes: "I think the sentence was $5,000 ... enough to pa...

Great article.  In addition, to the debate Mayr wrote a book called 'What Evolution Is" that basically concluded that even if there is life out there the chance that we will find them or they us is slim.  So it is probably bett...

This is a wonderful article, so illuminating, that it should make us really reflect a lot much more on our relationship with the environment if we desire to prevent our extinction that could happen very soon if we do not take the necessary steps...

The same trenchant analysis can be applied to all these well meaning efforts to use the market for positive change. It is the very logic which is destructive, not just particulars.

Are the people in Wisconsin or Lansing aware they need to be fighting for "deep transformations of our economy" as Naomi puts it? Or will they be happy with collective bargaining rights and dues check off?

Dear George, this phenomenon underlines your argument and already fascinated me at school: we need the freezing of water at the north pole, we need a cold pole, in order to 1. separate salt from the water by the freezing process and then thus have...
