A Few Words From...Jerry Pournelle

"We  have for years been building a society in which everyone plunders everybody, and while we weary of being plundered, we enjoy the plunder."

(Pournelle, by the way, was a great survivalist author. I highly recommend Lucifer's Hammer and Birth of Fire.)

    Thanks Linda. I have not read as much Pournelle as I should have. I find a number of statements to be logical and of a nature to suggest he was more like minded to me than many authors.
