In lieu of all these discussions about the future course of events for Iran and the possible eventualities, it would be worthwhile to perhaps take a step back, and ponder exactly what kind of a nation the people will be taking hold of. According to this article they would be in possession of a nation of sloth and inaction. Now exactly how such people are supposed to take their destiny into their own hands is an interesting query, but more interesting, sociologically speaking, is how even a rudimentary modern capitalist system could take hold in Iran. We possibly could get rid of mullahs, could we also get rid of our sloth and inaction?
cheers!
