To Segal, a former House Budget Committee staffer, the problem is not that we are gullible or greedy. . . . as Segal observes, the cost of meeting 'core economic needs' -- health insurance, housing in a safe neighborhood - keeps escalating. These are social problems, not individual hang ups. . .
Segal wants us to ask not whether the economy is fast-growing or even fair, but what it's for. What, in other words, comprises 'the good life' and is our economy giving us a chance to live it? . . .
Segal wants a political movement to create a functioning public sector . . . Numerous and powerful interest groups will fight such reforms with bitter determination. But what could provide a better source of drama and adventure that the struggle to make the simple life a viable option of all?" -- Civilization - February/March 1999 by Barbara Ehrenreich
