Notice that I’m not saying that we as individual human beings are not of the people — most of us are in fact from working-class backgrounds or remain wage workers as I am. I’m talking about our ideas. Our ideas are for the people — 99.99% of Americans — but not of the people, in the sense that most of them do not share them. That is neither our fault nor their fault — that’s just a fact.

Yes, it’s true, but what’s so good about the people’s ideas?
