"A common thread among anti-semitism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Americanism is the fear of being outdone by people willing to work harder. It's not surprising that such a fear exists among a disproportionate number of those who take state-supported jobs. It's thus not surprising, then, that New Class sensibilities are so often anti-American and anti-capitalist, and increasingly (or perhaps I should say, once again) anti-Semitic, too. The New Class, in this regard, as in many others, is like the old haut-bourgeoisie. " Now the whole paragraph John. It sounds like it was written by your far more conservative older brother. He even uses the term "old haut-bourgoeoisie". And yes i am kidding. This is much a do about nothing, dont you agree. Just an overly pedantic quotation and in my opinion, not any more over the top than others i have read. mike
