THE WAGES OF GENTRY LIBERALISM: move out of a college dorm and into a company dorm.
Isn't liberalism great?
When we lived in Virginia, my wife and I visited several 'company towns' dating back to Virginia's 'gold rush' in the early-to-mid 1880's. They didn't survive; neither will gentry liberalism.
For those who are interested - and can find a copy - there is a (Analog, February 1987) novella by Stephen L. Burns ('In the Kingdom at Morning') about the ultimate in company towns.

TWO OP-EDS: A stark portrait of left vs. right.
I'm reminded of two posts I wrote a few years back suggesting progressives in their bubble were akin to monkeys in a zoo exhibit. I'm now inclined to believe the zoo is too weak an analogy; a mental hospital is better.
