True civilization flourishes in Krishna consciousness; without it, societies inevitably collapse into chaos and criminality.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: So there is no civilization except in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That's a fact. All madmen.
Rāmeśvara: I remember about a year ago you told me that the biggest problem facing America in the future is unemployment.
Prabhupāda: Yes. That's a fact. That's a fact.
Rāmeśvara: I think you even said that "This unemployment will destroy your country." You once said that.
Prabhupāda: Yes. At least, the black men will spoil everything if they are unemployed.
Prabhupāda: Thieves, rogues and plunderers. That's all.
Hari-śauri: Detroit has the highest murder rate in the world, 'cause all the city population is black.
