I'd Love If People Relearned The Lessons Of The 20th Century All Over Again. Which Is To Say This Country Progressed Economically And Socially When We Had A Better Balance Between Capital And Labor. Neither Capital Or Labor Won Every Argument. The Battle Between The Two Created Economic Tension, And Transformed The Working Class Into The Middle Class, And Grew The Economy.

What Appeals To Me In The Deuce Is Some Of The Same Things That Made Me Interested In The Wire, Which Is There Seems To Be A Theme Here Around Markets And Capitalism And Labour. This Is A Moment, 1971, Of Something That Was Under The Counter: Then Brown Paper Bags Suddenly Became Legal, Pornography. And It Was Really The Birth Of An Industry Which Is Now A Multi-billion Dollar American Standard. And These People Were The Pioneers At A Moment Where There Really Were No Rules, Then Suddenly There Was A Legal Industry That Was Allowed To Exist.
