  That depends on who is reading them.  The Gullivers are not going to 
change until hell freezes over, and the old generation expires or their 
enterprises expire.  No one can reach them with reason, their existence 
is predicated upon rape and plunder. 

  Joe's anger is part of the legacy of outrageous conduct by the mean old
Gullivers, and that anger translates into a condemnation of illegitimacy,
piercing the propaganda screen upon which the old guard survives.  If the
public were more aware of the rigged and lopsided power structure out of
which their life of misery is condemned, the "artificial aristocrats" (as
Jefferson called them in his time) wouldn't be able to make it out of town
fast enough to save their skins.
