What Taibbi Sez

by tristero

There has been a lot of dumb things written about OWS and very little, at least that I’ve read, that makes much sense of its complexity and importance. This is one of the wisest:

People want to go someplace for at least five minutes where no one is trying to bleed you or sell you something. It may not be a real model for anything, but it’s at least a place where people are free to dream of some other way for human beings to get along, beyond auctioned “democracy,” tyrannical commerce and the bottom line.

That strikes me as exactly, but exactly, right.
