 | 1) Justice: All men are equal, but the rich are more equal than others.
2) Free Enterprise: The more enterprises you own, the freer you are.
3) Pre-emption: Do unto others, before they can do it unto you.
4) Great Power Politics: Might-is-Right; if we're the Good Guys, and wield the Power.
5) Unilateralism: Making UN an offer it can't refuse. (who pays the piper calls the tune.)
6) Privatisation: Creating shareholders (parasites) where none existed before.
7) Globalisation: Importing goods we used to manufacture ourselves.
8) Employee: A wage slave; a necessary evil.
9) Fascism: Capitalism without the restraints of Democracy.
10) "Arbeit Macht Frei": Who said the Nazis didn't have a sense of humour?
11) Choice: Going to University is not compulsory (Dollars, Debt, or Dropout)
12) Elections: A popular ritual; whereby, the more things change, the more they remain the same. =====================================
