“Today, you have 20 percent of the world controlling 80 percent of the Gross Domestic Product; you've got a $30 trillion (US) world economy, and $24 trillion of it is in the developed countries...

“Wherever the Industrial system has reached its second generation it is threatened by two mortal perils. The first is the demand by an organized proletariat for sustenance without relation to the product of its labor; a demand which threatens the very existence of PROFIT (on the necessary presumption of which Capitalism reposes).

Anyone who questions these normative values and conventions is subject to disapproval, hostility, or even violence.” KindCertainValuesOrderChoicesCasesViolenceSubjectsMovementExpressionProductsGayCapitalismGenderSexualityLifestyleTendenciesConventionsConventionalUniformsCommodityHostilityParadigmFetishDisapprovalCapitulationLifestyle ChoicesGender And Sexuality Author:Bruce LaBruce
