[chris hedges]
so karl polanyi, who you quote in the book, writes, “there are two kinds of freedom: one good and the other bad.” among the latter, he listed, “the freedom to exploit one’s fellows, the freedom to make inordinate gains without commensurable service to the community. the freedom to keep technological innovations from being used for public benefit. or the freedom to profit from public calamities secretly engineered for private advantage. but,” polanyi continued, “the market economy under which these freedoms throve, also produce freedoms we prize highly: freedoms of conscience; freedom of speech; freedom of meeting; freedom of -ssociation; freedom to choose one’s own job. while we might cherish these freedoms for their own sake, and i’m sure many of us still do, they were, to a large extent, by-products of the same economy that was responsible for the evil freedoms. and yet, it seems, in this late stage of capitalism, that those evil freedoms have vanquished the other freedoms.”
