He's interesting for an evening, at best, for some people. Then they go home and get back to the meat grinder the next day- all of that beautiful social commentary forgotten. They entirely miss the point and nothing changes.

I've been saying stuff like George did for a while now. I haven't made any headway and it hasn't gotten anyone anywhere. I think it's because people don't want to believe it's true. They don't have the same vision- the ability to stand back and look at the entire picture.
