  1. 'we demand!' not sure if aristotle gave any thought at all to 'economics, 'but he did offer the opinion that the core of human society was 'who decides? the power of decision sets the framework for all major aspects of society, and talking about change without a gun in your hand tends to be fruitless. economics is politics for the powerless, which is why most nations have a small rich and powerful elite, and large numbers of powerless and poor cattle. the rich buy politicians, the politicians pay soldiers, and that is functional economics. the economy of most nations is twisted to bring about this situation by the application of force. which is why, after giving marx some thought, mao said, 'power grows out of a barrel of a gun.' if you want change, be prepared for struggle. not dancing, but shooting. 'we demand?' in reality, she is begging, because her hand is empty.
