Entry: America: An Empire? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/america_an_empire#12887 Post contents: <i>but Marx had SOME good qualities and a FEW ideas worth thinking about.</i> -- John Ball. Let's list all three of them: 1. The worst social class is the Lumpenproletariat (not the bourgeoisie). 2. Nationalism and racialism are stupid ideas. 3. The state is bad for children and other living things. Thanks to John Ball for his perspective on China, a view we haven't seen in the press. Remember in the 90s after Princess Di's death we were told that the British Monarchy was finished? Remember back in the 80s when we were told that the 21st Century was going to be the "Japanese Century"? Remember back in the 70s when we were told about the future belonging to "Eurocommunism"? Remember when Big K said the Soviet Union would bury us, with Sputnik as his example? Remember when Woodrow the Worst told us World War I was "the war to end all wars?" Sent at: 2009 01 07
