It has been my opinion all along that Kunstler leans to the philosophy that man exists to serve the State or some greater good, name it what you will. And to achieve that end all sorts of social manipulation are justified, from Bloomberg's drink size edicts to Obama's mandatory participation in health care, to Kunstler's desire to eliminate the automobile and herd us onto mass transit.

Granted the pay is low but then so is the skill level.

No one who believes in the free marketplace of trade -- be it for ideas, objects, or labor -- thinks life is a rose garden, but it is head and shoulders above a real slave society where such notions of trade are laughed at and abominations committed against individuals are the rule and not the exception.
