Platt:
Guess you missed the part in Lila where Pirsig talks about socialism 
vs. free markets. He also talks about human rights and why SOM 
intellectuals are incapable of governing properly (they lack morals). I 
could go on. But the most relevant premise of the MOQ supporting 
Nick's thesis is the nature of DQ:  "It contains no pattern of fixed rewards 
and punishments. Its only perceived good is freedom and its only 
perceived evil is static quality itself-any pattern of one-sided fixed 
values that tries to contain and kill the ongoing free force of life." (Lila, 
9)

Ron:
In it he describes why it has economically failed, by trying to encapsulate a dynamic
economic quality of supply and demand.

Thats it.

Nowhere does he support your political views. Now if you would like to make a
legitimate arguement for your Political views being supported by Pirsig or the
MoQ, please be my guest.
