 For instance, at the end of 1979 economist Leonard Silk wrote: "This holiday season, the scariest commodity is probably not oil but hope. For, with the turbulent decade of the 1970's in its final days, the dangers facing the world economy-and peace-are intensifying." Columnist Max Lerner said in the spring of this year 1980: "The world seems to have reached a stage where inflation, strikes, bankruptcy, fanaticism and terrorism come close to guaranteeing that nothing works and no one is in control. Can anyone anywhere govern?" 

Note: Apparently not, look at the shape this world is in due to man ruling man and the world. It isn't working and never did. 

When the mayors of large cities in the United States were asked why so many of these urban cities were in such deplorable conditions, one answered: "The problems are almost insurmountable.  Anyone who is not frustrated is not thinking." Another mayor was asked if the cities were "ungovernable" now, and he commented that the facts "would lead one to at least think along these lines." Similarly, Gus Taylor, author of the book Scarcity, said: "Mugging, burglary, assassination of police, dope peddling has brought a semianarchy to many cities."
