Subject: RE: The re-Imagined Village
It's not as simple as that, RM: according to the common understanding of politically Right and Left, on some matters, I'm the former; and, on others, the latter. But I think that questioning future ECONOMIC immigration is actually a Left Wing attitude.

Poem 75 of 230: IMMIGRATION'S LEFT AND RIGHT

Letting people
Enter a state
For factors like
Terror through hate.

Rewarding those
Interested in
Gains which oppose
Heritage and
The state's own shows.

And here's what I think of capitalism:

"ENDS
Within the broader music industry, and beyond, what some get for their hour's work, compared with others, is ridiculous and inhumane; hence, many relatively competent musicians within the folk-scene are really struggling to make ends meet; so, if we like fair competition, we don't like capitalism. A better way, as I've suggested in verse, is to accept that humans are competitive, and have strong regulations (partly via nationalisation) to make that competition as fair as possible – whilst also providing "safety-net" support." (from "Messages," via the above links, if you like).
