"The far left and the far right meet at
the back door"
Barry Farber (radio commentator during the middle 1990's)
The closing lesson from George Orwell's, Animal Farm, is that unbridled capitalism and unbridled socialism become
indistinguishable in their oppression of the average man.
The
bridling of both capitalism and socialism, along with God's blessing
added,
are the causes that have led us to
our recent widespread prosperity. The complete unbridling of
either of the former, or loss of the latter, leads to totalitarianism
and widepread misery for the average citizen. The truth of this
is all around us.

"Equality, in a social sense, may be
divided into that of condition [i.e.,
Socialism] and that of rights. Equality of
condition is incompatible with civilization and is found only to exist
in those communities that are but slightly removed from the savage
state. In practice, it can only mean a common misery."
Lauren Groff, author of The Monsters Of Templeton
