It used to be pretty easy to distinguish between the bourgeois world of capitalism and the bohemian counterculture. The bourgeois worked for corporations, wore grey, and went to church.

Brookes is good, that's an understatement, as a shrink myself I appreciate the depths of his research and his explanations in laymen's terms, nice work David.
