It is not intelligent. It is not beautiful. It is not just. It is not virtuous. And it doesn't deliver the goods. In short we dislike it, and we are beginning to despise it. But when we wonder what to put in its place, we are extremely perplexed. * <http://www.panarchy.org/keynes/national.1933.html> National self-sufficiency (1933) Section 3, republished in Collected Writings Vol. 11 (1982).
