...working-class from real inequities to imagined and irrelevant ones demonstrates the power of values that have been long instilled. When the working class man frets about his "high" taxes, he does not pause to worry about the loopholes by which the rich escape paying anything like a fair share because he is preoccupied instead with the thought that his money is being given out in some fraction to welfare recipients. He is more suspectible to the latter viewpoint because all his life he has been taught to believe that a man should work for himself to amass as much...
...answer is to build a counter-community of people who share the same life-style (the style is so important) based on political and social service. The old dichotomy between full-time political revolutionaries and those who need to be politicized must be broken down.

Among urban cognoscenti, Los Angeles has long been an object of scorn. Many critics for years ridiculed the sprawling metropolis as a gaggle of suburbs "in search of a city." They had a point. The core of the city not only failed to share in Southern California's explosive postwar growth but developed ominous symptoms of decay. Though downtown Los Angeles remained a stronghold for banking, finance, oil and insurance, jobs in other fields followed people to the suburbs. Vacancy rates soared in dingy old office buildings. Sleazy stores and bad restaurants proliferated. Forsaken by many retailers, streets that...
