July 31, 2026 (FIFA Follies)

I love the above quote by Rousseau. It reminds us that many of the troubles in the world spring from self-centered psychopaths trying to claim ownership of things that should be the property of all. This morning the European Football Association "pulled up the stakes and filled in the ditch and cried out...Beware of listening to this imposter (Gianni Infantino). We are lost if we forget that" the game of football belongs to everyone.

It is so damn refreshing to see the statement that they released. We need to use this as boiler plate text for efforts to privatize all things that should remain outside the realm of profit. Education, National Parks, Water, Libraries, and Roads are just a few that come to mind.
