Worth Reading

Frank Rich has a great column in today's New York Times about the greed culture of the past 25 years, and how the graduates of our most prestigious colleges should be challenged to "make your life something good" (a line from the depression era play "Awake and Sing"), and not just make money. Much like President Obama, who could have landed a job at a top law firm right out of Harvard, but chose community work in Chicago, this would represent a healthy "counternarrative" to the past one of "money is king," and may be as important to America's future as all the stimulus money put together.
