58. 54. But I still think he should have left Welch off the show

He should have known better, especially after Clint Eastwood.

I know Eastwood's head was on right, unlike many other people, but Eastwood doesn't understand the world now, how much more conformist it's become, how easy it is to twist uncoformity into "an issue".

Welch's mentality was shaped by an economy which was production-constrained.

Today's economy is not production-constrained, it's consumption-constrained and he's never seen that and doesn't understand it.
