“I think of the old slavery, and of the way The Economy has now improved upon it. The new slavery has improved upon the old by giving the new slaves the illusion that they are free. The Economy does not take people's freedom by force, which would be against its principles, for it is very humane. It buys their freedom, pays for it, and then persuades its money back again with shoddy goods and the promise of freedom. "Buy a car," it says, "and be free. Buy a boat and be free." Is this not the raw material of bad dreams? Or is it maybe the very nightmare itself?” PeopleThinkingWayGivingDoeDreamWould BeForcePayPrinciplesEconomyCarMaterialsPromiseIllusionSlaverySlaveBoatNightmareGoodsConsumerismHumaneBack AgainOverconsumptionRaw MaterialsBad Dream Book:Jayber Crow: A Novel Source: Jayber Crow: A Novel
