“We had no proof. Just an observation. But it looks to us as though government always begins and ends as a tool for those who control it. It is not the product of a ‘social contract.’ It is not an expression of the ‘general will.’ It is not the ‘price we pay for civilization.’ It is not ‘captured by wealthy special interests.’ On the contrary, it is as blunt and stupid as a crowbar. It is used by the elite to pry wealth, status and power away from everyone else. Few victims of the public school system believed us, but now cometh a study from Princeton and Northwestern universities proving we were right.”
