[MD] Capitalism: my experience

[ARLO J BENSINGER JR]

[Platt]
Again you're confusing the intellectual level (a value level) with "thinking"
-- a critical difference that has been discussed "a hundred times in a hundred
ways" to quote one of my favorite contributors. 

[Arlo]
Or, maybe.. he's not confusing it all, and agrees with Pirsig that the
intellectual level is the "skilled manipulation of abstract symbols that have
no corresponding reality". I know, given the option, I side with Pirsig as well.
