On one side would be those Americans who believe in the power of vast, well-developed institutions like Goldman Sachs, the Teamsters Union, General Electric, Google and the U.S. Department of Education to make the world better. On the other side would be people who believe that power, whether public or private, becomes corrupt and unresponsive the more remote and more anonymous it becomes; they would press to live in self-contained, self-governing enclaves that bear the burden of their own prosperity.

By George, he's got it! I am properly impressed.

In other words, on one side are brain-dead big government socialists, and on the other side are freedom-loving conservatives. Nothing has changed. The whole "anti-big-business" face the Democrats try to put on is just that, a facade.
