In the context of a recent discussion, also Lenin's definition: kto kgo, who beats whom?
It is interesting that "politicsd: in the sense of pursuit of self-interest--in this highly individualistic country--is a swear word. Somehow, when the government is concerned, it's somehow bad to have interest groups struggling for advantage, whereas in the market, self-interest is applauded. Anyone have any ideas about why?
