Parenti on nature

"The essence of capitalism is to turn nature into commodities and commodities into capital.The live reen earth is transformed into dead gold bricks, with luxury items forthe few and toxicslag heaps for themany. The glittering mansion overlooks a vast sprawl of shanty towns, wherein a desperate, demoralized humanity is keptin line with drugs,television, and armed force."-Michael Parenti eans

Parenti philosophy

The free market mythology. to which both political parties in this country and almost all mainstream commentators are wedded, is the idea that the most ruthless, selfish, opportunistic, greedy. calculating plunderers, applying the most heartless measures in the cold blooded pursuit of corporate interests and wealth accumulation, will produce the best results for all of us..through something called the invisible hand."

By the time you finish reading this article, the upstart sports news outlet called The Athletic probably will have hired another well known sportswriter from vour local newspaper. In a couple of years, once The Athletic has completed its breakneck expansion, perhaps that newspaper's sports section will no longer exist. "We will wait every local paper out and let them continuously bleed until we are the last ones standing," Alex Mather, a co-founder of The Athletic, said in an interview in San Francisco "We will suck them dry of their best talent at every moment. We will make business extremely difficult for them 95

Complaining about automation is pretty silly thouglh Like Reply 1 1 hr ~ Hide 15 Replies It's not the automation that's the problem. In fact, automation should mean that everyone gets more time off. However, private ownership of the means of production (in this case, a supermarket) leads to lower wages and fewer jobs rather than more time off or more benefits for employees. Such a thing would not happen if the employees were democratically in charge of businesses. Unfortunately, the oligarchic control of ever fewer choices in doing business means that we're sliding into a neo- feudal system. Fewer jobs, lower wages, and the manorial lords own everything while the rest of us pay for the privilege to keep the table scraps from the meals we produce.
