Sorry but I can´t afford to subscribe The Economist... are you kidding? people in this forum earn so well to pay such fees? Well for us who don´t, could anyone post the entire article?

I am more of a National Review/WSJ guy myself.

Thanks my dear pphilipko, you Philadelphians are very savy people... I´ve copypasted the entire article before some admin erases your huge post... thanks again.

i'm not 100% sure, but if the article is available on a unpaid subscriber page, it should be copyable, with attribution, to a non-commercial educational environment like this forum..

sounds like fair use to me..

but i will leave it to the moderator who is watching this thread to make the final decision..
