Sound Familiar?

Funny how coincidence works. The Powerline guys have an episode of Uncommon Knowledge up featuring the great Thomas Sowell. The host, Peter Robinson, quotes from The Thomas Sowell Reader an observation that is not entirely original (simply a basic fact of historical analysis) but powerful and worth noting often: "The members of the Communist League were overwhelmingly intellectuals and professionals. It had the same kind of social composition that would in later years categorize many radical groups in which the youthful offspring of privilege called themselves the proletariat." Translation: Marxism is the conceit of rich kids with fancy educations.

Today we learn some fun facts about various OWS protestors' living quarters.
