Reading Ehrenreich Is Good For

We've Got The Emphasis On The Wrong Syllable When It Comes To Crime In This Country. The Fbi Says Burglary And Robbery Cost U.s. Taxpayers $3.8 Billion Annually. Securities Fraud Alone Costs Four Times That. And Securities Fraud Is Nothing To The Cost Of Oil Spills, Price-fixing, And Dangerous Or Defective Products. Fraud By Health-care Corporations Alone Costs Us Between $100 Billion And $400 Billion A Year. No Three-strikes-and-you're-out For These Guys. Remember The S&l Scandal? $500 Billion.

Many A Time Freedom Has Been Rolled Back - And Always For The Same Sorry Reason: Fear.

Most Of Us Think Of Government As Them. Yet Government Isn't Them: It's Us.

In The First Place, Any Group Of Folks Willing To Make Asses Of Themselves In Pursuit Of A Good Time Should Be Commended And Encouraged: The Spirit Of Human Frolic Needs All The Help It Can Get.

The Thing Is This: You Got To Have Fun While You're Fightin' For Freedom, 'cause You Don't Always Win.
