His response to my essentially non-partisan post, which did not even mention "Democratic economics", "profits", "growth", "corporations", "revenue streams" or "taxes" was his usual galvanic spasm to anything he finds even remotely threatening to his button-down metaphysics. I doubt if he even read it all the way through, since I made it a point to mention that I was not sure whether or not I even agreed with the economist.

I did not mention the fact that the man I was criticizing was actually a pro-Obama liberal I heard on NPR driving to work this morning. I felt it unnecessary since I was not referring to his politics, but just to the perversion of all economic thought into an abstraction which ignores human suffering and replaces it with a pseudomathematical parlor game.

All I got was stock response #29. I'm surprised he didn't include that damned satellite picture of N Korea with the lights turned off, or some footnote proving Joe Stalin killed more people than the Crusaders.
