 That doesn't mean you stop pushing, stop working on both the indignation and
 consciences of those around you, but understand what you're up against.  Who
 knows, invincible powers have withered away astonishingly fast before.  My 
bets
 are on the latins, the Spanish, the Italians, the Americans south of US.

I too wont quit pushing, but I just cant help from wondering if its worth it 
sometimes. 

Those crumbs might have been part of it, but I think the major reason was the 
communist scare given to us by those wonderful politicians and business men.
