What's behind the scorn for Wall Street protests? - Salon.com

shared by thinkahol * on 03 Oct 11 - No Cached

Does anyone really not know what the basic message is of this protest: that Wall Street is oozing corruption and criminality and its unrestrained political power — in the form of crony capitalism and ownership of political institutions — is destroying financial security for everyone else?

Religion is irrational but so atheism - opinion 28 March 2011 New Scientist

shared by thinkahol * on 29 Mar 11 - No Cached

Many scholars, including philosopher Charles Taylor in A Secular Age, have documented the emergence of a new vision of western societies in the wake of the Protestant Reformation and the growth of modern nation states. Societies were no longer seen by most of their citizens as kingdoms under God but as societies of mutual benefit in which citizens use their rational minds to cooperate and improve their lives. When religions stood in the way of this by denying individual liberty and pleasure and by asserting that the purpose of life should be transcendent rather than earthly well-being, religions themselves became anti-social and even immoral.

Employers exercise that power by paying their employees less than what they would earn in a truly competitive market. By paying lower wages, employers may cause higher turnover and incur higher costs to recruit, train, and supervise their workers.
