"The New York Times" Publishes a Genius


The New York Times features an op-ed today by Corey Robin, a professor of political science at Brooklyn College and the City University of New York Graduate Center.

Under the title, The New Socialists: Why the pitch from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders resonates in 2018, he concludes his essay with this gem:
The socialist, by contrast, believes that making things free makes people free.
Oh yeah, who needs to understand supply and demand and that we live in a world of scarcity, just declare everything free for everybody.
