"Socialist policies will be revived"

[Charles Brown]

Never underestimate the potential for
the bourgeoisie to put over totally
irrational arguments that seem
well nigh impossible. Knownothingism
is rampant. Look at the irrationalisms
Reagan put over on the mass of 
suckers - including, cut the taxes of the
rich in order to balance the budget.

Re Louis's quote from the WP:  "... the dangers to capitalism shouldn't
be
exaggerated. So far, most of the government interference, including
Malaysia's, has been limited to the markets for money."

The beauty part of this limited intervention is its potential to cause a
TOTAL change in social psychology.  Now that the high priests of
"respectable" economics have ruled it's legitimate for governments to
meddle in the marketplace to save financial interests, it will be well
nigh impossible for them to maintain a vigorous argument against
government action to promote social welfare more directly.
