laissez-faire Process:
“The laissez-faire process and its one-generation-slower by-products means the accelerating reoccurrence of political crises after political crises, all apparently invoked by evolving nature to force us, through dilemma adopted expediences, to yield compromisingly inch by inch from our inertia of ‘let well enough alone,’ thus fortuitously establishing, under each emergency, further increments of technical advances until we have finally, grudgingly and ignorantly, acquired a level of technical efficiency adequate to provide high standard physical living for total man-- which was always subjectively implicit and objectively inevitable because of the presence of intellect in physical Universe.”
