Well, power and suspense ... in a sad, languid way: the power of a sunset, the only suspense the shock you feel when it suddenly slips away, casting strawberry light on the outline of distant clouds. It is now apparent that there has been a narrative arc to Dylan's career. He started obvious, then exploded surreal--each new album a surprise of some sort--and is now back to being obvious again...

Under this logic, any actor claiming to act in the public interest (including but not limited to the government) ought to buy more goods (and labor) in a recession than a for-profit corporation under comparable constraints in order to maintain employment and demand levels...
