But a good deal of anger and fear. You have to live among the people to understand how they feel.

You have to have observed what has happened over the last 40 years.

I heard an unsusual observation yesterday from one who has seen it, been involved.

The talk of Trustbusters sounds good but most of these companies are multinational. You can not bust them up. Think about that.
