Addiction, Advertising, & Easy Virtue (was Re: How far do we go?)

[Patrick F. Durgin]

Is this thread meant to be cute somehow?  Just interesting, or rather
despairing, to see the absolute refusal to consider aesthetics of any kind
as pertinent to left discourse, particularly economic discourse.  And should
it arise at this point as a substantial thread, I've long since lost trust
in the seriousness of the participants on this list when considering such
questions.  So, forgive my intrusion, but do consider reserving your facile
snickering for back-channel communication.  This list is busy enough with
worthwhile information and debate.
