“Most Americans are aware of the brutality and injustice used to maintain the excesses of their selfish consumer society and empire. Yet I suspect...they do not care. They don’t want to see what is done in their name. They do not want to look at the rows of flag-draped coffins, the horribly maimed bodies and faces of veterans, or the human suffering in the blighted and deserted former manufacturing centers. It is too upsetting. Government and corporate censorship is therefore welcomed and appreciated.” WantHumansLooksDoneBodyGovernmentCareFacesUsedSufferingNamesInjusticeSelfishFormerConsumersCorporateUpsetEmpiresSuspectsExcessFlagsCensorshipVeteranAppreciatedBrutalityManufacturingCoffinsDesertedHuman Suffering Author:Curtis White
“If people want consultative government, the price is increased complexity and delay in arriving at decisions. If they want speed of government, then they must accept a greater degree of authoritarianism.

“I've been in and out of Wall Street since 1949, and I've never seen the type of animosity between government and Wall Street.
