"
Yes I want society to make money, to be prosperous, rich & wonderful,
But not if it squeezes me out towards the margins,
Into its debt, into something I should fear questioning,
Because my hard earned success can always be taken away from me if I don’t behave.
We should not be in awe of the society we live in,
we should not worship it
and be held beneath it’s heavens.
We should sometimes, and whenever we must,
Stand up to it, advance it,
make sure it actually survives the party,
without tripping over
and believing it’s own hype and bullshit."
