<DIV>I didn’t read this article carefully, but I couldn’t make any sense of it
at all. I don’t know where the author got this from:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>“<FONT face="Times New Roman">The nature of capitalism, we have been taught
to believe, tends toward greater equality, wider opportunity and the leveling of
archaic, invidious distinctions based on pedigree. Mr. Piketty throws cold water
on this conventional wisdom, which has been part of the intellectual birthright
of nearly everyone born in the West since the end of World War II.”</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is this some sort of “trickle down” effect, argued by -- is it Milton
Friedman?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I suppose it’s appropriate that the article should have quoted Woolf’s
“letter”, which, although not really difficult to understand (esp. ever since
Melba Cuddy-Keane deconstructed it), is difficult to absorb because the reader
tends to come at it with his/her own prejudices. I came at the NYT article
with my own prejudices, yet somehow I doubt that Melba will be able clarify it
for me.</DIV>
