“Here’s what else is new and exciting (or terrible) in money: there is real poverty among the soldiers who fight our wars. There are fist fights to get children into $30,000 a year kindergartens and pre-schools in the right neighborhoods in Manhattan. There are 40 million Americans without health care insurance. There are almost 40 million baby boomers with no savings for retirement. There is a long waiting list for Bentleys at the dealership in Beverly Hills.There are soldiers’ wives selling blood to buy toys for their kids. ”
–Ben Stein, writing in The American Spectator about today’s social economics.

What’s the point of Ben Stein, Republican extraordinaire, talking about soldiers’ wives selling blood for toys? Is he really celebrating that publicly? That’s pretty hard-core, even for a Republican.
nice try!
