Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

Kimball on Kapitalismus

The man's a classy polemicist:

Capitalism is the greatest engine for the production of wealth that the ingenuity of man has ever devised. But after it achieves a certain level of prosperity, it regularly excretes characters like Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, beneficiaries of capitalism whose contempt for its strictures is equaled only by their ignorance of its tenets. 

I say, "Up with capitalism, down with Ocasionalism!"  Does the silly goose have a cortex?

It is a paradox of plenty: our fabulous success and prosperity have spawned an army of know-nothings bent on destroying what their betters have constructed over centuries.
