Although he paid lip service to being against capitalism in your often repeated quote, I have never worked for a more capitalist boss than Maharishi. His organization was always and continues to be ranked by the economic status of his members. Working for him on staff was a challenging confrontation with this principle of the rich get everything and you get the leftovers. I remember when I was working in his facility in DC full-time and met with the advanced technique teachers and the facility head staff. I asked them why we have full-time people who can't afford the next techniques because they are working on staff and getting a tiny stipend. Why is it that the most devoted to fulfilling Maharishi's mission are the ones most likely to be cut out? Their answer was pure Republican spun capitalism, it could have been delivered by Newt Gingrich. Maharishi was using us to renovate that property which he flipped for a profit, sharing none of the profits with his workers for even something so fundamentally humane as health care. So hearing Maharishi's quote about how capitalism is going to fail would ring a bit truer if it had failed in his own organization. He was an old school robber baron capitalist to the end. == > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Susan" <wayback71@> wrote: > > > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "seekliberation" <seekliberation@> > > wrote: > > > > > > Abolishing public schools??? not a good idea.
