And yet we must start with education... As you know, I am also a hard-lined liberal, but I have no illusions about what horrors uneduacted proletariat is capable of when it's free...
[this is good]
Quite a quandry isn't it. If one was look at the logic of the statement, there is no hope whatsoever as the professionalisation of education and experience leaves one with little alternative but to pursue it after wage-enslaved hours. The problem arises with the former removing all motivation to do the latter.

Marx, in his 'historical materialism', forgot that socialisation within the capitalist milieu will weaken the empathetic instinct within humanity - which will only serve to undermine the perspectival foundation upon which a communist - or comanarchist (my term) state of affairs may be realised. Max writes, insightfully, about the dangers emerging from a freed but uneducated proletarian nation. What i had stated is the consequence of life within a 'free' capitalist nation.

Thank you for posting the thought-provoking quote NotQ.
