On the first point, I disagree. Robert reich wrote one of the most concise and spot-on analyses of our economic malaise I have ever seen in maybe 300 words in the Times or the Journal (can't recall which) a few weeks back. Nailed it, like Plated used to nail shit.
I don't disagree with your second point, but I think the difference will be nuanced, in many instances almost unrecognizable. Not that they wouldn't try, just that the reality is, well, limiting.
