I didn't read the NYT comments until I saw your post. The comments are truly amazing. It's proof that the NYT and its readers are captured in a cocoon of ignorance and don't even conceive that there are other opinions in the real world. The first comment I read had a couple of dozen strategies to solve all of the US problems. I thought it was satire, until I read to the end, and realized that the commentor was serious. The strategies would lead to instant Marxism.

You’re right about the whack job comments NYT readers posted on Brooks’ column. But you should know that the Litterbox Liner of Record tends to delay posting, or censor, comments from conservatives. I know because I tried to post a comment on Brooks’ article, and it never appeared.

Heh, I thought the same thing. It was so outrageous it couldn't have been serious. Alas, there are people out there like it. I loved the bit about tax rates up to 100%.
