Opinion is one thing but there is an awful lot of scientific studies that have been done on the effects on the brain of childhood deprivation and abuse. Many are available on the internet. In one way or another it doesn't matter what the system is if your humans are flawed from inadequate early childhood education. Their brains are malformed and the only hope is the next generation. Witness the Rock and Roll generation that has such an inadequate response to acoustical forms that were strong prior to world war II and the massive war damage. These are not new studies. They go all the way back to Rene Spitz. What is amazing is how the different professions only work in their little worlds and basically develop an unbalanced societal system with no overall systems theory.
That was why Marx succeeded as well as he did. It was not that he was right but only that he was the single theoretician who dealt with the whole social system. History will not deal badly with him and the Soviet System will have a greater place in history than we give it today. Not for its failures which are obvious but for its successes that we don't come up to. Witness that we still use Russian Art as the music for July 4th when we have great American composers, one who even wrote a masterpiece called July 4th. But we aren't capable of hearing it due to our simplified "Beatle Brains." REH ----- Original Message ----- From: "Salvador R.
