"Wall Street" is a populist resource in the broad sense that it attempts to
make the financial machinations of Wall Street understandable to the
layman. I'd rather have people getting their understanding of Wall Street
from you than from "The Spotlight," or from Lyndon LaRouche or Jerry
Falwell. Populists may come to different conclusions than you do, but your
book helps them identify the problems and the enemies.
