Today’s media just can’t stand programs that help people

Anytime, anywhere.

This morning I read this article in the Times about France’s “slow decline”, caused, of course, not by robber barons but by a generous welfare state. It seems the Times, like the Post, just can’t stand the thought of ordinary people not ending their lives in utter poverty.

So when I read it, I said to myself “this is bullshit, and I hope Dean Baker tells us why”. A few minutes ago I checked my RSS feeds, when what to my wondering eyes should appear, but Dean Baker telling us why the Times is full of it.
