Hi Arlo,
Just want to say I appreciate your recent posts in response to Platt.
I believe your analysis is right on, and would add only that when we
focus on the left-right, lib-con, theist-atheist splits as the cause
of social problems, we are playing into the hands of entrenched
power. As you've suggested, real power wielded by elite minorities
feeds the flames of these red-herring dichotomies. The reason is
obvious: Every second we spend focused on false causes is time taken
from useful analysis and action against the real problem.
Anyway, thanks for the good work. Even though you won't make any
progress with Platt, your thoughtful posts may very well light a
candle or two elsewhere. In this way, over time, the dark path
becomes brighter, and evolution takes a positive step.
Best,
Mark Steven Heyman (msh)

growth of private power to the point where it becomes stronger than
the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism —
ownership of government by an individual, by a group or any
controlling private power." - President Franklin D. Roosevelt
