...themselves, their families, their jobs. That is an understandable but fallacious approach to individual or collective life, since every American citizen stands to benefit or suffer as his whole society succeeds or fails. The success of the American experiment, as Thomas Jefferson argued in a somewhat different context, will depend on its success in "enlarging the empire of liberty." That is no longer true in geographical terms. In social terms, it has never been a more urgent task...
Bargaining Point. IBM's future has been based on its computers and its competitive prowess. Now the future may depend on the courts. Last month the company was charged with monopolistic practices in a civil antitrust suit brought by a competitor, Control Data Corp. Two weeks ago IBM was the target of another suit, brought by a customer, Data Processing Financial & General Corp. And last week IBM was hit by the most important suit of all.

...suburbia -- right down to the inevitable green velveteen furniture. Richard (Robert Fox-worth) and Jenny (Jane Cronin) act like they just stepped out of a Raleigh commercial. In actuality, they are the kind of people who smoke bad cigarettes only because they are so deeply in hock that they depend on the coupons. Although Albee struggles through the exposition painfully slowly, he does at least grab onto the right details...
