Jerry Mander
Jerold Irwin "Jerry" Mander (born May 1, 1936) is an American activist and author, best known for his 1977 book, Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television. His most recent book, The Capitalism Papers, argues against Capitalism as a sustainable and viable system for which to base an economy.
Life and career
Mander was born in the Bronx, New York City to Harry and Eva Mander, an immigrant Jewish couple who struggled to achieve success in America. In his Four Arguments... he wrote:
My parents carried the immigrants' fears. Security was their primary value: all else was secondary. Both of them had escaped pogroms in Eastern Europe. My father's career had followed the path familiar to so many New York immigrants. Lower East Side. Scant schooling. Street hustling. Hard work at anything to keep life together. Early marriage. Struggling out of poverty.
Curiously, success came to him during the Depression. He founded what later became Harry Mander and Company, a small service business to the garment industry, manufacturing pipings, waist bands, pocketing and collar canvas.

by: NodeNobody, nobody, nobody can put him out of game:
an injustice for the whole world...unless...
somebody, somebody, somebody, at the risk of loosing his life,
can try to scream to him:
Just I will catch you by the arm your body feels the uselessness
"Das Kapital".
Just I will catch you by the arm your body feels the uselessness
"Das Kapital".
To call a spade a spade he is the right man in the right place,
while the middle man (J.M.), with his role completely wrong,
defends the wares he paid, he gained,
Like the bitch he bought, the bitch he sold, the bitch he thrown away!
