Zeuspaul,

Bravo! Nice post.

I'd love to hear Bowers defense of Samuel Insull. After all, he was the most successful of that scoundrel generation who tried to screw the rest of us with their greedy views about private power. I do wonder what he might have to say. I know what we think of scumbuckets who'd corner a market and destroy a nation, just because there's a buck in it. But to hear Bowers defend raw capitalism as anything other than sheer greed and destructiveness would be interesting. The disingenuousness of his arguments would necessarily be of a monumental scale. In keeping with the ego of those who don't view the word "commonwealth" as worth a damn.
