VOICES OF A GENERATION

I

The school is divided into different groups of kids: the break-dancers, the people who listen to heavy-metal, the pretty girls, the ravers and the hip-hop people. But there's no pressure to be in one group or another. If a person is a break-dancer, they can still chill with the ravers. I'm a hip-hopper. We wear baggy jeans and sweatshirts. Bit if I'm really good friends with a person in the heavy-metal group; I can go chill with them and it's iust like. whatever. I don't really worry about violence. And I don't really worry about peer pressure. Like if you're at a party and you don't drink, that's cool. "Most kids' parents dont's know what they are doing. I talk to my mom about everything. She shows up for every parents'night; sometimes she's the only one there. It makes me feed good that I have a mom who cares about what is going on with me."

I went to a National Honor Society induction. The parents were just staring at me. I think they couldn't believe someone with pink hair could be smart. I want to be a high-school teacher, but I'm afraid that, based on my appearance, they won't hire me. Don't be afraid of us. Don't sterestype us.

I see people who don't allow themselves to grow in certain areas, even though they have talent or skill, because they feel that would be out character or that peoplewouldn't like them if they changed. Say you're really good at math, but your friends say, "I hate math. It's such a nerdy stupid subject ..." You can't be good at it because then you're a nerdy brainiac person. And then you feel like you don't fit in.

The biggest thing here is wearing name-brand clothes. If you even think of wearing a non-name brand, you have guts. Looks area real important, too. If you're not pretty, people won't want to hang out with you. Even the girls with dark hair usually dye their hair blonde. Everything is just one big competition.

'Debunking' Laissez Faire

My Atlantic Monthly essay, "The Capitalist Threat", has aroused the ire of Robert J. Samuelson ("Crackpot Prophet", JUDGMENT CALLS, March 10) for its perceived attack on the capitalist system. I wasn't attacking capitalism, only its excess and laissez faire ideology.

I pointed out a curious affinity between laissez faire ideology and Marxism: both lay claim to scientific validity. The Marxist claim has been fully discredited. But laissez faire ideology is derived from the most respectable of social sciences, economics, and its claim to scientific validity still requires debunking. I suspect that Samuelson prefers to dismiss my ideas as jumbled, rather than to entertain the possibility that the scientific foundtions of laissez faire are less than secure.

Our understanding of the world in which we live is inherently imperfect. This creates difficulties for the social sciences from which the natural sciences are exempt. Scientific method has discovered universally valid generalizations that can explain and predict events in the natural world. To make such generalizations possible, the events must be independent of statements that relate to them.

But in society, participants must make decisions about events that are contigent on their decisions. The separation between statements and facts, a characteristic of science, is lacking. (...)

Since nobody is in possession of the ultimate truth, we need institutions and attitudes that allow people with different views and interests to live together in peace. Markets are the best mechanisms for correcting individual errors, but government intervention and collective action are needed to protect common interests and correct inequities in the capitalist system. Laissez faire ideology - which holds that the common interest is best served when each individual pursues his own particular interest - is inadequate for holding our open society together.

My main contention in the Atlantic Monthly essay is that the concept of open society, which not only recognizes the multiplicity of cultures and traditions but actively advocates pluralism, could serve as a unifying principle for our global society.

The trouble is that the concept is neither recognized nor accepted.

The Fear Is Old

The Economy New

By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN

There is something perverseabout reading the business news these days. Every month the Labor Department comes out with a new set of statistc about how unemplyment is down an thousands of jobs are being created. But these stories always contaim the same caveat, like the warning on a pack of cigarettes, that this news is bad for the health of the economy. The stories always go on to say that these great employment statistics triggered panic among Wall Street investors and led to a sell off of stocks and bonds.

(...)

Of course there has always been a link between unemploymnt numbers and inflation expectations. The more people are working, the more they have the money to pay for things; the more consumer demand out strips factory capacity, the more prices shoot up, and the more prices shoot up the more the value of bonds, with their fixed interest rates, erodes.

But what has been so frustrating about the market reactions in recent months is that despite the surging economy, inflation has not been rising. It has remained flat, at around 3 percent, and yet Wall Street, certain that the shadow it sees is the ghost of higher inflation come to haunt the trading floors, has been clamoring to the Federal Reserve for higher rates.
