As Dickens' put it in Oliver Twist: “If the law supposes that, the law is a ass — a idiot.” In the 1930s, George Orwell railed against “cranks” in his book, The Road to Wigan Pier. English advocates of the simple life in the 1930s, like Edward Carpenter and Leslie Paul, can be regarded as forerunners of modern ecological anticapitalism. Quoting from an article in Cabinet Magazine, “In the spirit of The Road to Wigan Pier, today's anti-capitalism could be said to draw towards it with magnetic force every tree-hugger, organic fruitarian, solar-powered scooter rider, water-birth enthusiast, Tantric-sex practitioner, world-music listener, teepee-dweller, hemp-trouser wearer, and Ayurvedic massage addict.” Crank culture is alive and well in the 21st century.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Another great day on the points front. ![]() I agree Gerald, the crank culture is alive and well. I always thought these sorts of aberrations were borne by those that did not have enough to do. Those that were not worried by the fundamental things that so many of the rest of us are. e.g. earning a living, putting food on the table for a family, providing housing and transportation, insurance in case of the unthinkable, education for the kids, nest egg etc. What really worries me is the drastic socialistic turn this country has taken. I suppose that I will not live to suffer many of the consequences but I am really worried for those that will. I have beautiful granddaughters that will suffer because of current policies of spend, borrow and spend, borrow, spend..... ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by RT at Nov 17, 2011 1:08:56 PM] |

Cranking along. Yes with the economic down turn, offshoring of jobs and bleak job outlook is the cause as I see it of socialist tendencies as many people are scared to death they have no future and will not be able to care for their family unless they take from those who have.
