“For they (capitalists) hold as their chief heresy, in a coarser form, the fundamental falsehood that things are not made to be used but made to be sold. All the collapse of their commercial system in their own time has been due to that fallacy of forcing things on a market where there was no market; of continually increasing the power of supply without increasing the power of demand; of briefly, of always considering the man who sells the potato and never considering the man who eats it.” MenHas BeensMadeFormUsedHe ManDemandFundamentalsSellsDuesChiefsCapitalistCollapseFalsehoodConsumerismConsideringPotatoesHeresyFallacyOverconsumption Author:Gilbert K.
