The Streets

sequentialist:

1. Maybe the trope, “Wall Street and Main Street” or the many variations of that used by commentators, represents a) an alienation on the part of financial commentators from reality, and/or b) the total, troubling disconnect between the haves of the financial world and the have-nots in small towns across the country.

2. A corollary: Regardless, it is a stupid trope.

I like it much in the same way I like say, blue collar and white collar. I feel like there’s some nice imagery there.
