Oh come now. I'm and in a seige of depression I can't read -- _except_ while I'm pedalling an exercycle. I read all of _The Wealth of Nations_ , a history of the South Sea Bubble, and _Theories of Surplus Value_ while peddling an exercycle an hour a day 5 or 6 days a week one spring -- and hardly read a page otherwise during that entire time.

You simply can't condemn a whole people. Left politics (anyhow, left politics which presupposes the grwoth of mass movements and the achievement of coherence by such movements) has to assume that on the whole people live sensibly given the conditions in which, at any given time, they find themselves.
