government interference with companies and, all during the 1800s, a gradual
rise of
nationalism and size of governments and their budgets, and no commercial
develop-
ment to distribute goods to the common people, catering to royal
governments or only
a leisure class still being the focus of production.
Income tax so penalized management, making it unrewarded, and company
law so
hampered financing that it ceased to be really worthwhile to run companies
and
management quit. In Russia management went into politics in desperation.
Kings were
always decreeing the commoner couldn't have this or that (it put the
commoner's
statistic up!) and not until 1930 did anyone really begin to sell to the
people with
heavy advertising. It was Madison Avenue, radio, TV and Bing Crosby not the
Gre-e-eat
Roosevelt who got the US out of the depression. England, not permitting
wide radio
coverage, never has come out of it and her empire is dust. England still
too firmly held
the "aristocratic" tradition that the commoner mustn't possess to truly use
her
population as a market.
But the reason they let it go this way and the reason the great
depression occurred
and the reason for the decline of the West is this one simple truth:
If you reward non-production you get it.
It is not humanitarian to let a whole population go to pieces just
because a few
refuse to work. And some people just won't. And when work no longer has
reward
none will.
It is far more humane to have enough so everyone can eat.
So specialize in production and everybody wins. Reward it.
There is nothing really wrong with socialism helping the needy.
Sometimes it is
vital. But the reasons for that are more or less over. It is a temporary
solution, easily
overdone and like Communism is simply old-fashioned today. If carried to
extremes
like drinking coffee or absinthe or even eating it becomes quite
uncomfortable and
oppressive. And today Socialism and Communism have been carried far too far
and
now only oppress up statistics and reward down ones.

By the way the natural law in this Pol Ltr is the reason Scientology
goes poorly
when credit is extended by orgs and when auditors won't charge properly.
With credit
and no charge we are rewarding down statistics with attention and
betterment as much
as we reward up statistics in the society. A preclear who can work and
produces as a
member of society deserves of course priority. He naturally is the one who
can pay.
When we give the one who can't pay just as much attention we are rewarding
a down
social statistic with Scientology and of course we don't expand because we
don't
expand the ability of the able. In proof, the most expensive thing you can
do is process
the insane and these have the lowest statistic in the society.
The more you help those in the society with low statistics the more
tangled affairs
will get. The orgs require fantastic attention to keep them there at all
when we reward
low society statistics with training and processing. The worker pays his
way. He has a
high statistic. So give him the best in training and processing-not
competition with
people who don't work and don't have any money.
Always give the best service to the person in society who does his job.
By not
extending credit you tend to guarantee the best service to those with the
best statistics
and so everyone wins again. None is owed processing or training. We are not
an
Earthwide amends project.
No good worker owes his work. That's slavery.
We don't owe because we do better. One would owe only if one did worse.
