RANDOM QUOTE

“In a highly developed society, the
Establishment cannot survive without the obedience
and loyalty of millions of people
who are given small rewards to
keep the system going: the soldiers
and police, teachers and ministers, administrators
and social workers, technicians and production
workers, doctors, lawyers, nurses, transport and
communications workers, garbage men and firemen.
These people-the employed, the somewhat privileged-are
drawn into alliance with the elite.
They become the guards of the
system, buffers between the upper and
lower classes. If they stop obeying,
the system falls.”

Howard Zinn
