Asked whether Watts has seen economic improvement, Dymally replied that there have been "some visible changes, but no substantive changes." He added that private enterprise has stimulated some economic improvement, but it has done little to erase Watt's deficiencies in housing, health, and education. He denounced President-elect Nixon's proposal of "black capitalism" in the ghetto, saying that it would only provide money for a few "black bourgeois" but "it won't help the masses of people...

...effect of separating yourself from the earth mechanically and then letting go of the machine that was holding you away is almost exactly like the effect on a small thumbtack of the largest, most powerful magnet you've ever seen, at a fair or anywhere.

...really is, but largely created a wacky life-style for them that would be novel for the audience. Feinstein, on the other hand, simply shows us hip youth as it is.
