Harold Meyerson uses his Washington Post column to blast libertarianism:
Did the Walton family up in Bentonville raise the levees in New Orleans? Did the Bass family over in Texas write a tax-deductible check to the Mennonites for the billions of dollars they would need to rescue the elderly from inundated nursing homes?
and this gem from Comrade Meyerson:
Some of it is institutional racism, but the primary culprit is the economic libertarianism that the president still espouses whenever he sells his Social Security snake oil. It's that libertarianism, more than anything else, that has transformed a great city into an immense morgue.
Wal-Mart seems to have handled the situation pretty well.Wal-Mart has donated millions of dollars to Katrina relief.No word yet on Meyerson's organization
The Democratic Socialists of America doing as much as Wal-Mart.
