| #3 She is absolutely correct. As if recent events in Europe don't make it obvious enough, the West's current path is unsustainable and inherently self-destructive. It's time to let go of the dream of a society engineered by the elites for equality and supposed happiness for all. The scientific correlation between the two is tenuous at best if not a downright fantasy to begin with. Perhaps the establishment on the Left will finally listen to one of their own: a highly educated, sophisticated, insightful, professional and pioneering female; from Africa, no less. That may be wishful thinking given the general hubris on the Left but never underestimate the power of reality and the constancy of human nature to provide the inevitable wake-up call. In that effort, I applaud Ms. Moyo and her courage to "speak truth to power", as it were. |

| #2 Back in the 1970s, I talked with a young socialist theorist who was more honest than typical, and he asserted that US socialism had been methodically planned and programmed for a gradual takeover since just before the turn of the 20th Century. He said the two wings of socialism, socialist-communalism and socialist-nationalism, are both elitist in orientation, and want to rule, not just govern. So while they might seem to compete, they have much the same eventual goal. |
