Adrian Moore, from the Koch Brothers-funded magazine "Reason," doesn't think that unskilled laborers should expect to make a living from their work (link goes to Crooks and Liars' Video Cafe).

I can't think that he actually means what he's saying here. I think he's spent so much time justifying the high salaries of his compatriots that he thinks "make a living" means "make a fortune."

Or, maybe, he really does think that malnutrition, homelessness, and premature death for a large class of people is an acceptable price to pay for a cheap strawberry and a clean hotel room.

Either way, he's in that space where the distinction between evil and stupid is not possible to make.
