    The key line, which really is political and not economic is:

    I don’t want to do nothing, there’s plenty to do

    The question I ponder is who plans for whom?

    Do I plan for myself or leave it to you?

    I want plans by the many, not by the few.

    That is the question:
    Who has the right to chose for other men?

    And if one believes there are a few, anointed, people -who, somehow, have been gifted with God-knowledge on how to do to other people better for them then themselves, how do you know these people you anoint are the ones of God-knowledge, and not merely evil manipulators that you are giving such great, arbitrary power?
