“From 1945 to 2003, the United States attempted to overthrow more than 40 foreign governments, and to crush more than 30 populist-nationalist movements fighting against intolerable regimes. In the process, the US bombed some 25 countries, caused the end of life for several million people, and condemned many millions more to a life of agony and despair.” PeopleEndsCountryStatesGovernmentAmericaFightingProcessUnitedMillionsUnited StatesMovementDespairCrushRegimesAgonyEnd Of LifePopulist Author:William Blum
“The country is headed toward a single and splendid government of an aristocracy founded on banking institutions and moneyed incorporations and if this tendency continues it will be the end of freedom and democracy, the few will be ruling...I hope we shall...crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations which dare already to challenge our government to trial and bid defiance to the laws of our country.

“The problem I have with socialist utopias is there's some kind of committees trying to soften outcomes for people. I think that imposes models of outcomes for other people's lives. So in a spiritual sense there's some bit of libertarian in me. But the critical thing for me is moderation. And if you let that go far you do end up with a winner-take-all society that ultimately crushes everybody even worse.” PeopleIfsThinkingTryingKindEndsProblemSpiritualBitsModelsCriticalLibertarianWinnerOutcomesCrushSocialistCommitteesModerationUtopia Author:Jaron Lanier
“Here's why I don't have time to 'play church': at the end of the day, when I was supposed to be discarded, and the tools came in to kill me, to crush my head or whatever you're supposed to do, the Lord took His hand, pushed in there, and pushed me back out of the way. And they thought they got me. But at the end of the day God had a plan for a broken situation.” WayEndsPlayHandsChurchSituationLordPlansBrokenToolsSupposed To BeCrushThe End Of The DayKill MeDiscarded Author:Fred Hammond
