If it leads to change then it can be useful, since it is then no longer guilt but the beginning of knowledge.

Those in the margins are always trying to get to the center, and those at the center, frequently in the name of tradition, are trying to keep the margins at a distance. Part of the identity of a place is the tension between those in the margins, and those in the center, and they all live behind the walls which wear the tradition.

The dogma of increasing wants nullified every real economy and set the community in a collective squirrel-cage.
