I would like to hear some self-examination but it seems the the determined preacher/teacher commentators seldom engage in self-examination.

There is much I admire about Reich-he is a fine and person but he seems rooted in the mythologies of 19th and early 20h century political thought.

He participated in and has benefitted greatly from the rapacious success of the development of our university system into economic enterprises that has crippled a generation with debt and its inevitable companion -powerlessness. I would like some in-depth analysis from him on this topic.
