A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

We understand the philosophy of those who offer resistance, of those who conduct a counter offensive against the American people’s march of social progress. It is not an opposition which comes necessarily from wickedness — it is an opposition that comes from subconscious resistance to any measure that disturbs the position of privilege.
It is an unfortunate human failing that a full pocketbook often groans more loudly than an empty stomach.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933–1945)
Speech (1940-11-01), Campaign Address, Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

The noblest monument to peace and to neighborly economic and social friendship in all the world is not a monument in bronze or stone, but the boundary which unites the United States and Canada — 3,000 miles of friendship with no barbed wire, no gun or soldier, and no passport on the whole frontier. Mutual trust made that frontier.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933–1945)
Speech (1936-08-14), Chautauqua, New York

¿La justicia social es un robo? La utopía extrema detrás del dogma de Milei

La afirmación de Milei de que “la justicia social es un robo” no es novedosa ni revolucionaria: es la versión más radical de una corriente libertaria minoritaria que la historia económica, la experiencia democrática y los grandes líderes del siglo XX pusieron en discusión. Desde Friedrich Hayek hasta Robert Nozick sostuvieron críticas conceptuales a la redistribución, pero incluso las democracias más capitalistas del mundo terminaron incorporando impuestos progresivos y […]
