"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
A Review of Butler Shaffer's ?Calculated Chaos?
Submitted by strike on Mon, 2008-06-02 16:00
"?It is crucial for anarchists and libertarians to note that [Shaffer] is not confining this argument to the state, though he devotes a whole chapter to 'the people pushers? of politics. In order to appreciate the weight of this book, you must understand that his argument applies just as much to the Catholic or Baptist churches, to the activist groups of the left and right, to the corporations, to the Kiwanis and Rotaries, and so on.? By Jeremy of Social Memory Complex."
