A very interesting chart in the Boston Review, by a couple of Stanford liberals, whining about the reduction in middle class neighborhoods, and the corresponding increase in both poor and affluent neighborhoods.
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt about the poor neighborhoods, they're probably pretty grim. But what about the increase in affluent neighborhoods? Shouldn't we celebrate that?
Twelve percent of us who once didn't live there have moved up to affluent neighborhoods. If we're conservatives we should celebrate their good fortune; capitalism has paid off for them.
This entry seems related to the previous entry, eh?
