{National Order [continued]}[7th May1978]

Such attempts*, while in the short term possibly meeting with some success, are in the long term doomed to failure if they fly in the face of economic and direct popular pressures. The problem (to switch the imagery) is to avoid ourselves being swept away along with our solutions. The correct answer is not thus to attempt to build against the tide breakwaters, which will be swamped – and us with them – but to build boats, and ride the waves, attempting so to stay dry, steer in the current, and make landfall at some point we might have chosen for ourselves.

*[i.e. to reimpose order – see last previous post]
