[lbo-talk] uh-oh! too much regulation!!

[Doug Henwood]

So if the masses really love specific regulations, why is there almost  
no political evidence of that? Yeah, the elite really constrains  
democracy, but the system isn't totally closed. You'd think there  
might be some electoral punishments for opponents of reg and rewards  
for proponents. I don't see any.

Sometimes I think that many on the left see the masses as some radical  
sleeping giant just waiting for an alarm to ring. They aren't, you know.
