“We preach free enterprise capitalism. We believe in it, we give our lives in war for it, but the closest most of us come to profiting from it are a few miserable shares of stock in a company that doesn't pay large enough dividends to keep a small mouse in cheese. The truth is, most of us are job serfs. At a time when invested capital returns 20 to 30 percent, we have no capital. We only have our wages and salaries, and a debt so high that something like 20c on every dollar we earn is spent to pay off what we owe.” GivingBelieveWarEnoughWisdomJobsPoliticsPayCompanyEconomyOur LivesShareReturnTruth IsPercentCapitalismDollarsDebtMiserableLiberalismEnterpriseClosestCheeseMiceWagesSalaryDividendsFree EnterpriseSerfs Book:Left at the post Source: Left at the post
“Kelso's proposals do promise to free us from our morbid dependency on economic health through armament manufacture; they promise a way out of the welfare mess, out of foodstamps and ship subsidies, out of perpetual inflation, and they suggest a means of doing these things without being too disruptive of the wealth of five percent of the population who own the rest of us.” WayMeanWisdomPoliticsWealthEconomyFiveEconomicPromisePercentPopulationShipsMessWelfareLiberalismPerpetualInflationProposalDependencyMorbidDisruptiveSubsidiesArmament Author:Nicholas von Hoffman
