The Whole of Economic and Political Thought
Money goes to Power; and Power goes to money, the rest is just commentary --or bullshit. It appears that more tolerant societies are the ones capable of conceiving the new ideas that create original wealth; tolerance itself is a byproduct of relative abundance & leisure. Markets flow toward disintegration or consolidation. The stronger markets shield influence and make reform difficult. Without reform, power and money will eventually collapse... The notion that human organizations resembles a system on a social scale is pretense; broad comparisons between nations are the product of cultural mores and affluence.
