rc-am wrote: >this, in the context of late capitalism >is an affront, since it makes the unemployed commensurate with the idle rich. Who hardly exist anymore. Today's rich, at least those in the U.S., typically work long hours. Even today's rentiers often put in 10-12 hour days at trading desks. As far as I know, pure coupon-clippers aren't a significant social force. Doug
