National Review Defends A Leader of the Democratic Socialists of America

National Review defends Comrade Barbara Ehrenreich, one of the leaders of the Democratic Socialists of America:

For the kind of educated, upper-middle-class people who read Barbara Ehrenreich, though, Nickel and Dimed was at least an eye-opening exploration of what life is really like for waitresses and Wal-Mart salesclerks and cleaning ladies: Ehrenreich actually worked at each of these jobs for a period, trying (unsuccessfully) to carve out some kind of decent life on the money she earned. Only the truest of free-market true believers — and I’m not one of them — could read about her experiences and remain convinced that, even in this land of opportunity, the haves don’t unfairly exploit the have-nots. Human nature being what it is, some kind of government protection is necessary to keep those lowest on the totem pole from being thoroughly exploited.

The National Review defending an outright socialist.No wonder the National Review is for big government.
