“The
free market core mythology, to which both parties in this country and
just about all mainstream political commentators are wedded,
argues in effect that the most ruthless, selfish, opportunistic,
greedy, calculating plunderers, applying the most heartless measures
in cold-blooded pursuit of corporate interests and wealth
accumulation, will produce the best results for all of us, through
something called the invisible hand.”
Michael Parenti "Democracy and the Pathology of Wealth".
