Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the
dictates of the leader of their government and have gone to war, and
millions have been killed because of this obedience. .. Our problem is
that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and
starvation and stupiditiy, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that
people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the
while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem."
-- Howard Zinn
