We need to restructure the economy and society so that culture rules, so that the resources are made available to pay for culture and the arts-- so we can stop being an artistic and philosophical backwater-- and the uncultured profit-ideologists who've currently infected this country with their adolescent ideology and bankrupt values are utterly disempowered, instead of running the show as they are now.
