Matthew,
May I suggest that you read 'The Ragged Trousered Philanthropits' by Robert Tressell, the story tells of his vision of a true Socialist society where work is done for the benefir of all humans and not for profit.
You can get a copy from 'Bookmarks'in London.

: At the end of the article you wrote
: "...it's about time we did
: something about it." I agree,

: I have tried to discuss the problem
: with others, but we always run into

: designed itself to be resistant to
: change."
