Michael Lissack the complexities of our modern life. To expose abuses is not to denigrate the people who are victims of them - indeed if I had no hope that change might occur there would be no point in even discussing the problems. But make no mistake, this problem involves each and every one of us. It is the collective we that allow “the system” to function in the manner it does. “They” didn’t dream up a scheme to screw “us.” Readers might go “do their own thing,” pretending that they have removed themselves from the world of politics and power. You can leave political life alone, but it will not leave you alone. You can escape its noise and its pretensions but not some of its worst effects. One ignores the doings of the government only at one’s own risk.
