More Political Triads
The people are...
...free
...equal
...profitable
- choose two!
Equal and profitable
but not free; just how Pharaoh likes ‘em.
Profitable and free but
not equal; meritocracy, in theory.
Free and equal but not profitable;
that herd of cats won’t work for you!
About the last; Chuang
Tzu told a tale of a Useless Tree, whose wood, leaves, branches, bark and nuts
were so worthless, from a human point of view, that the carpenters let it live
to a ripe old age. The Useless Tree visited a carpenter in a dream and
explained that its uselessness was extremely useful to it.

A politician is…
…intelligent
…effective
…honest

choose two!

The State is a
protection racket:
The Church is a
confidence game;
and the Market is a
slave auction.
Dear readers: discuss.

Money is a crook, but
who can arrest it?
Money is a tyrant, but
who dares defy it?
Money is a failure, but
who can replace it?
