I think that once you've produced a conformist, a totally conformist society, a society in which there were no critics, that would in fact be an exact equivalent of the totalitarian societies against which we are supposed to be fighting in a cold war.

We see that there are two different kinds of...societies: (a) parasitic societies and (b) producing societies. the former are those which live from hunting, fishing, or merely gleaning. by their economic activities they do not increase, but rather decrease, the amount of wealth in the world. the second kind of societies, producing societies, live by agricultural and pastoral activities. by these activities they seek to increase the amount of wealth in the world.

Anyone who says that economic security is a human right, has been to much babied. while he babbles, other men are risking and losing their lives to protect him. they are fighting the sea, fighting the land, fighting disease and insects and weather and space and time, for him, while he chatters that all men have a right to security and that some pagan god—society, the state, the government, the commune—must give it to them. let the fighting men stop fighting this inhuman earth for one hour, and he will learn how much security there is.
