The Soviet Union was a partial check on capitalist looting in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. However, with the Soviet collapse, capitalist looting intensified during the Clinton, Bush, and Obama regimes.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Western capitalism is a looting mechanism. It loots labor. It loots the environment, and with the transpacific and transatlantic 'partnerships,' it will loot the sovereign law of countries.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The Golden Rule is to 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' Allegedly, America is a Christian country. This means that Christian America is following Jesus' Sermon on the Mount in a masochistic way.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Clearly the climate is changing, whether caused by CO2 emissions or some other cause.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Marx and Lenin were ahead of their time. Marx wrote before offshoring of jobs and the financialization of the economy. Lenin presided over a communist revolution that jumped the gun by taking place in a country in which feudal elements still predominated over capitalism.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
I have no sympathy for debunking human achievements that, in the end, gave ordinary people liberty.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
We need a memorial day to commemorate the victims of neoliberal globalization.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Many foolish people believe that nuclear war cannot happen, because there can be no winner. However, the American war planners, who elevated U.S. nuclear weapons from a retaliatory role to a pre-emptive first strike function, obviously do not agree that nuclear war cannot be won.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Jobs offshoring began with manufacturing, but the rise of the high-speed Internet made it possible to move offshore tradable professional skills, such as software engineering, information technology, various forms of engineering, architecture, accounting, and even the medical reading of MRIs and CT-Scans.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Vice is Washington's signature. A fish rots from the head, and Washington has led our country into vice, greed, selfishness, and the mockery and destruction of human life.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Whether one has a favorable or unfavorable opinion of unions, their demise is also the demise of countervailing power. A system in which there is no countervailing power is a tyranny in which power is unconstrained and unaccountable.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The champions of globalism are the champions of America's destruction.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Globalism is a scheme for impoverishing First World labor and taking power and influence from the hands of the many and putting them in the hands of the few.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Few Americans other than the One Percent have a stake in the American economic and political system.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Law is just one public institution, but it is a cornerstone of society. When law goes, everything goes.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Every public institution in the United States and most private ones are corrupt.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
There is no reason for a person to have thousands of millions of dollars.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
In 21st century America, capitalism has been unfettered from the regulations that democratized it and made it serve society.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Clearly what differentiates the U.S. from other countries is the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution defines us as a people. Without the Constitution, we would be a different country. Therefore, to lose the Constitution is to lose the country.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
As truth is Washington's worst enemy, everyone associated with the truth is Washington's enemy.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
People everywhere face the threat of control by government and technology.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
It is the nature of government and of technology to establish control.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
In the United States, journalists receive awards for lying for the government and for the corporations.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Capitalists make money by exploiting labor and by externalizing the costs of the wastes produced by the productive process by imposing the wastes on the environment.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Everyone who ever trusted Washington has been betrayed. Possibly there is an exception somewhere, but the betrayals are vast and are sufficient in number to define Washington as the least trusted entity on the earth.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Governments unaccountable to law are tyrannies, whatever they might call themselves, no matter how exceptional and indispensable they declare themselves to be.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Beginning with the Clinton Administration and rapidly accelerating with the George W. Bush and Obama regimes and Tony Blair in England, the U.S. and U.K. governments have run roughshod over their accountability to law.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Putin responds to threats, to illegal sanctions, and to incessant propaganda with statements that governments need to respect each other's national interests and to work together for common benefit. No politician in the West speaks in this way.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Looting is the only way left for the Western financial system to make money.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Humans regard animals as worthy of protection only when they are on the verge of extinction.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
God made a mistake when he gave to humans, infected as they are with evil, jurisdiction over Earth. He should have given jurisdiction to animals.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The neoconservative doctrine declares that it is the principal goal of U.S. foreign policy to prevent the rise of any country that would have sufficient power to serve as a check on American unilateralism. This neoconservative doctrine puts Russia and China in Washington's crosshairs.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The foreign policy of the United States rests entirely on propagandistic lies.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
When America's Newspaper of Record is nothing but a propaganda ministry, what is America?
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Peace is costly to the profits of the military/security complex. Washington's gigantic military and security interests are far more powerful than the peace lobby.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The offshoring of American jobs by global corporations and the deregulation of the U.S. financial system have resulted in American economic failure.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
If the Obama regime gave a hoot about 'humanitarian crisis,' the Obama regime would not have orchestrated humanitarian crisis in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
Because of the failure of the federal government to enforce federal law, we now have 'banks too big to fail,' unregulated Internet monopoly, and the evisceration of a dispersed and independent media.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
If you want to learn real economics instead of neoliberal junk economics, read Michael Hudson's books.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
If it turns out that global warming and ocean acidification are consequences of capitalism's carbon-based energy system, the entire world could end up dead from the external costs of capitalism.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
The unambigious fact is that U.S. capitalism is a mechanism for looting the many for the benefit of the few.
Quote by -Paul Craig Roberts
In the U.S., society and the environment have to pick up the tab produced by capitalist activity.
