Worth repeating.

"Only the thoughtful ask, 'What is happening to us?' The popular cry is, 'Who is doing this to us?' and its satisfying sequel—'Just let me get my hands on him!' "

—From this Slate article on the practically philanthropic role speculators play in an economy, contrary to what many might believe.

Hmm interesting article but I am not sure if I agree with it. Otherwise Slate seems like a jewel of a find.

Really? I wouldn't even know how to begin to refute it. I love Slate; reading it makes me feel like I am wasting my time intelligently.
