The always-objective Paper of Record, our very own New York Times, aids and abets the violent, interventionist foreign policy of the US federal government by participating in a public witch hunt against companies doing business with Iran.
The only thing funnier than watching socialists call out other socialists for doing business with still other, currently unpopular, socialists, is the rank hypocrisy of it all.
Extremely valuable use of NYT resources, obviously. I can see how a reasonable debate amongst the editorial staff would've led to "Assisting the Great Satan in its efforts to make war on Iran" edging out "Catalog the enormous and growing list of tyrannical, immoral and unethical abuses of power and instances of corruption amongst US politicians in order to help American citizens make 'informed decisions' about their democratic political process."
'Cause, you know, that's what they claim is their Sacred Purpose here on Earth.
Ha, blogacracy. Now there's a farcical idea for political leadership of a cowardly people!
Liberty within the confines of its opposites; views on news; political and economic commentary; financial observations; money and investing; philosophical eclecticism; historical perspectives; literature reviews; LRC hero watch; calculating socialists; things that remind us that, no matter how far we run, the jungle is everywhere...
