Subject: RE: Wow But they get the goods, which have use value for them, and in many cases can use them to increase their own wealth and power and even the health of the society. There's a great line from the Brazilian novelist Machado de Assis: "to the victor the potatoes." Maybe it should be pickles. From: jeffrey E.

I know that Bill has a great financial adviser, so his shares are redeemable for money any time he likes, because the companies in which he has the shares are trusted to be making money by selling goods and services, outside of the closed system of this model. Doesn't that handle the fish? At least I think "the answer" is on target. And the deli is great. Noam From: jeffrey E.

" Im not sure it can every be right , but it can be better" . I intend to use that alot THANKS On Sat, Mar 5, 2016 at 9:10 PM, Noam Chomsky <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'[email protected]);» wrote: Haven't indulged like that since our visit to Kelly's.
