That is an excellent article. Thanks for posting. It’s full of little gems, like this (which I was telling a NYer just yesterday)

“Remember — and this is key to understanding all of this — that the Left spent three decades or so in exile, crafting elaborate masturbatory fantasies of what it wanted to do to this country and our economy when it finally took over again. Thirty years in the wilderness makes people go a little mad, so just imagine how nuts many of these bearded Marxists are, since they started out crazy to begin with.

“These are Leftist academics and true-believer cultists who have thus far been largely insulated from the true suffering of most Americans, because they are still being paid by non-profits, universities, grant-sponsored endeavors, labor unions, PACs, or the federal government in some way. There have been no layoffs, no budget cuts, and no threats to their livelihood because the parasitic flow of tax dollars into these people’s pay checks has not been shut off yet…while people who work in the real world, who have been subjected to the real life consequences of the sum total of Obama’s terrible decisions, realize just how bad things really are.”

I would also add DC to that mix - things are just fine in DC. They can’t figure out why everyone all over is so upset about jobs.
