#1 "Fear, along with the breakdown of society during the neoliberal period," Chomsky responded. "People feel isolated, helpless, victim of powerful forces that they do not understand and cannot influence."

So would that include a President who can't be influenced, Noam? The President who will not be influenced by the majority of the House and Senate because they are all "obstructionists"?

Or is it all Bush's fault?

Intellectual? I do not think that word means what he thinks it means.

#2 Of course Noam has been working diligently for a total breakdown of our society for more than 50 years.

Why isn't he thrilled by this? [/sarc]
