Griffin makes excellent points about the distinction between political collectivism and economic collectivism. I wished his mind had been as well illuminated on the raw issue of the 'profit motive'. ( in the selection I've made above).
I'm sure I dissagree with him about this but I'm having great difficulty getting my head around WHY I dissagree. I'd be glad if others here could grab this issue and open it up a bit.
