EVER STRIVING
There are four avenues of endeavor through which mankind is
striving toward the ideal of Free Society. They are religion, edu
cation, politics and economics.
The greatest advance toward this goal must be toward brother
hood in religion, freedom in education, democracy in government
and cooperation in economics. These paths are parallel like a great
four lane highway. They are interdependent and an advance toward
either one improves the general statis of the race.
The cooperative movement has to do more with economics, and
proposes to apply the principles of freedom and equality to our eco
nomic relations. In its attempt to achieve this it would substitute
for the now generally accepted principle of production for profit,
the principle of production for us*. It recognizes the consumer as
the primary factor in economics. The consumer being the cause of
production, the reason for production, the creator of production,
should reap the benefits of produ3tion. Production should be for
the purpose of filling man’s need to consume.
This is in direct contrast to the Capitalistic idea which considers
the consumer exists to be exploited, where money, the tool of man,
becomes king, and profit the only motive of business.
Good authority claims that approximately 50 per cent of the
cost which the consumer pays for goods today goes to pay interest
on debts. Thus the consumer is only getting half of what he pays
for.
