Krug Loves Lizzy


Dear Dr. Bones,

_¡Feliz paleosábado, Don Elihú!_

We draw our Sabbath Morning text from the Book of the prophetess Nitsy :

Elizabeth Warren, the financial reformer who is now running for the United States Senate in Massachusetts, recently made some eloquent remarks to this effect that are, rightly, getting a lot of attention. “There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own. Nobody,” she declared, pointing out that the rich can only get rich thanks to the “social contract” that provides a decent, functioning society in which they can prosper.

Before picking on the gruesome twosome, we ought to put it on the record that that "social contract" grue annoys all the Whight People. For instance, it annoys the ‘conservative’ ‘intellectual’ Don Ricardito de Lowry :

Elizabeth Warren’s Piffle
The folly of a supposed “underlying social contract.”

A campaign riff from the Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren has rocketed around the Internet and been greeted by the Left as a rhetorical triumph.... Warren’s theme is that the rich should pay more taxes as part of “the underlying social contract.” This is taken as a slam-dunk rejoinder to the charge that Pres. Barack Obama’s proposed new tax increases are “class warfare” . . . .
