scalp, so you can't ever disagree with her ! Seems pragmatic to me.
There is NO ONE here with power who is EVER EVER going to share with
you. So, what kind of a dream are you banking upon ?
Iniquity refers to : gross immorality, injustice or wickedness. These
are each acts committed of individual drives. They may aggravate with
cartelisation and could be suppressed with policing or checks and
balances, but power sharing is not a solution for drives residing in 7
billion people. Yes, even people without power can be immoral, unjust
and wicked.
Very truly, I am inclined to embrace the reality that nothing
appreciable can be done about the world, in terms of changing it for
the better. But, equally, that no individual can ever improve one bit
without trying to live and do all in its power to change the world !
