"Soviet-style communism failed, not because it was intrinsically evil, but because it was flawed. It allowed too few people to usurp too much power. Twenty-first-century market capitalism, American-style, will fail for the same reasons. Both are edifices constructed by human intelligence, undone by human nature".

Quote ~ Arundhati Roy The Ordinary Person's Guide to Empire

How may we overcome this undoing of ourselves?
