“The Democratic power elite on some level feels delegitimized by its working-class, black and female constituencies. What it wants are the "legitimate" votes of suburban, white, middle-class, affluent males. Even liberal voters and organizations tend on some tacit level to accept the idea that they are not the "real" Americans the Democrats must pursue.” WantFeelsIdeasRealBlackWhiteLevelsAcceptingClassMiddleFemaleVoteOrganizationDemocraticDemocratMalesPursueMiddle ClassVotersElitesWorking ClassAffluentTacit Author:Ellen Willis

“If people want consultative government, the price is increased complexity and delay in arriving at decisions.

“Ultimately, all I wanted was for players to feel like they were in the real world. I wanted them to be able to apply real world common sense to the problems confronting them, and I thought recreating real world locations would encourage that kind of thinking. There's also just a real power, a real thrill, when you fire up a game and see a place you've been or want to go, and then get to do all the stuff you WANT to do there but know you'll get arrested if you try!

“We come finally, however, to the relation of the ideal theory to real world, or "real" probability. If he is consistent a man of the mathematical school washes his hands of applications. To someone who wants them he would say that the ideal system runs parallel to the usual theory: "If this is what you want, try it: it is not my business to justify application of the system; that can only be done by philosophizing; I am a mathematician". In practice he is apt to say: "try this; if it works that will justify it".” IfsMenWorldWantTryingRealDoneHandsRunningSchoolPracticeTheoryIdealsRelationMathematicsMathWhat You WantMathematicalConsistentJustifyReal WorldApplicationUsualMathematicianProbabilityParallels Author:John Edensor Littlewood
