Seymour Melman: "The ideologues of the market declare, workers exist only as a collection of atomized, isolated individuals subject to the logic of the 'free' market. If they fall by the wayside in the scramble to join the top 20% of society who have prospered in the recent economic boom, they will find themselves among the broad majority of Americans for whom living and working conditions have gone from worse to worse. There is no place for losers in the cut-throat world of neo-liberalism. In the words of Margaret Thatcher, 'There is no such thing as society'. We exist for the globalizers and managerialists not as citizens or communities, but only as consumers."
The above is an excerpt from After Capitalism - from alienation to disalienation (summary of the book).
