An excellent post over at Kos:
"We all have our tales, our sagas, and situations. However, sadly, we see our own lives as separate from the anxieties of others. They are not. We are united, whether we are member of a labor Union or not. We are citizens of the United States."
Read please.
(Damn that was long.)
ReplyDeleteHave I ever told you how much I loathe the Sam Walton enterprise and its ilk?
I just taught these guys last week:
"The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. WORKING MEN OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE!"
-Marx & Engels, Manifesto of the Communist Party, 1848
Apropos, no? Oh...
"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main."
-John Donne, "Meditation XVII," 1624
Extremely apropos...
