Dylan's words taken up and put into a different song by Steve Goodman and quite appropriate here:

"Ain't it hard to realizzzzzzeeee
He ain't sellin' any alibiiiiiiiiiis
As he stares into the vacuum of your eeyeyyyyeyeyyyyes
And says, D'you'wanna make a deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal? "

<"We wound up at the lost and found
Love is blind but now I see
That my whole world lies waiting
Behind...Door Number Three">

Selling out is one of the two great American Traditions
the other one is striving to be the kind of person who has something worth selling out
