C. Wright Mills 1960
Letter to the New Left

[Warning: possible brain-fry]

I had a college professor who suggested I read "The Power Elite" by Mills. I knew the professor was a Trotskyite, and he knew I was not. I asked, "What's Mills' political persuasion?" The professor said: "Very middle of the road. He's very mainstream."

I did read the book. My conclusion: Trotskyites can't tell the truth to save their life.
