The Witches thing just one political group attacking other political group. I am sure we can see something like that all around us now.
Yes, life is surround by politics , and one must choose either side or be neutral. Sure, there are degree of political level in all sides, but these are the big three - left, right, or neutral. Aristotle's politic is a good read in this.
It always come back to what is best for the people, not just for the ruling class or the Stakeholders. I know US Constitution is the best, not perfect, but the best amount all political system on earth's short history that will and did bring the most liberty and freedom to her people. I hope this is not too political in here.

howareyou32A good book indeed. Though, I would suggest one to read the original language of AOW. I read both versions and I can tell you that they are somewhat different. You speak Chinese?

howareyou32NO NO NO. China done that, and it failed miserably. That is what I already said in my concluding statement....
Or did you mean
NO NO NO. China done that, and it failed miserably?
China is not the "exact" communism introduced by this book.

It was a good description of how things started to work after the industrialization of nations. Then when it started concluding that we are mindless drones with A) No morality B) No Spirituality C) Et Cetera I realized why it didn't work.
Do you have the same opinion as me?
The proletarians replace the state, and the state basically replaces the Bourgeois.

Logisterici'm not talking about you, but i'd advice a careful re-read as this is one of the most importand books in history - it's misinterpretation caused a lot of turmoil and bloodshed all over the world Yes, they destroyed a lot of peaceful ways of living. I.E. Taoism.
