"The debt and work cycle is an ingenious tool of
subjugation. Make people think they need all these things, then they
must have a job, and they give up control of their lives. It's as
simple as that. We live in one of the most free countries in the world,
but we fix it so we are not free at all. "
- Larry Roth
"Capitalism only supports certain kinds of groups,
the nuclear family for example, or 'the people I know at my job',
because such groups are already self-alienated & hooked into the
Work/Consume/Die structure."
- Hakim Bey
"Supposing we suddenly imagine a world in which
nearly everybody is doing what they want. Then we don't need to be paid
in order to work and the whole issue of how money circulates, how we
get things done, suddenly alters."
- Robert Theobald
"When survival or mere subsistence is at stake, a
society can focus only on the overwhelming needs of the moment, and
questions of meaningful work and leisure are considered purely
academic. But we believe that the world has enough wealth to move all
of humanity above survival and subsistence."
- Alfonso Montuori & Isabella Conti, From Power to Partnership: Creating the Future of Love, Work, and Community
