Recommended - Our Angry Aristocracy

I recommend Victor Davis Hanson's August 3 article Our Angry Aristocracy. So-called 'limousine liberals" (multi-millionaire liberals who prescribe all sorts of expensive remedies for the poor, but who are themselves exempt from any of the consequences or costs) have always been a problem. But the hypocrisy is more evident now, as Congress debates health care changes (that won't affect their own very, very generous health plans) and executive pay restrictions (that won't affect their own very, very generous pay or pensions).
