More From Barbara Ehrenreich

Private enterprise is ceasing to be free enterprise. private enterprise, indeed, became too private. it became privileged enterprise, not free enterprise.

When you delve deep enough, you find that practically every great fortune and great enterprise in america have sprung from the courageous enterprise of some individual. it was commodore vanderbilt's enterprise in switching first from running a ferryboat to running other ships, and then, when he was well along in years, his enterprise in switching into railroading, that created what was to become one of the most notable fortunes in the history of the world.

This is the free enterprise system. the only place in the world that i can recall where companies never failed was the old soviet union. this is what investors do in free enterprise and capitalism system. [...[ and, yes, free enterprise system can be cruel. but the problem with this administration is that small businesses are the one who had suffered the most, the kind that need investors, the kinds that don't need the hundreds of pages, thousands of pages of regulations that continue to plague them and have them hold back on the hiring investment.

Truth is found neither in marxism nor in traditional capitalism. each represents a partial truth. historically capitalism failed to see the truth in collective enterprise, and marxism failed to see the truth in individual enterprise. nineteenth century capitalism failed to see that life is social and marxism failed and still fails to see that life is individual and personal. the kingdom of god is neither the thesis of individual enterprise nor the antithesis of collective enterprise, but a synthesis which reconciles the truths of both.

Everyone talks about freedom. all around the world different people, different races, different countries are fighting for freedom. but what is freedom? in america we speak of living in a free country. but are we really free? are we free to be who we really are? the answer is no, we are not free. true freedom has to do with the human spirit-it is freedom to be who we really are. who stops us from being free? we blame the government, we blame the weather, we blame our parents, we blame religion, we blame god. who really stops us from being free? we stop ourselves.

I think there's so much that's not said about sex in the united states. even from an educational level. and i do a lot of work on human trafficking and i connect a lot with girls that come up and end up in this trade and partially because of a lack of education about sex in the country.
