"The strong do what they can, the weak suffer what they must"
We are back in a period of great power actors. I should brush up on my Thucydides.
We haven't been out of that period for 200 years. The current set of actors are just more clumsy and less elegant.
The US seems to want to emulate 1800s Britain I guess.
Let's hope the Luddites are more successful this time.
I think we should reconstitute the Levellers.
