By now, most of you have read Jon Hilsenrath’s mindless, tone-deaf, idiotic attempt at humor published by the Wall Street Journal yesterday. If not, here it is: A Letter to Stingy American Consumers.

What you may not have seen, are the 174 comments published in response to the article. At least 95% of them consist of justifiable crushing criticism toward the cluelessness of this Federal Reserve apparatchik masquerading as a journalist. While I am strongly against vigilante style violence as a solution to our societal problems, the incredibly frequent calls for him and other “elites” to be strung from lampposts is certainly notable. People are very angry, and this anger will explode at some point in a very nasty way unless the status quo is discarded.

Here are the top 20 comments from the post. In highlighting them, I am not endorsing any calls for violence:

With that out of the way, let’s not forget this post from last summer: The Pitchforks are Coming…– A Dire Warning from a Member of the 0.01%

The writing is clearly on the wall if you’re paying any attention.

The only question is: How long until the WSJ bans comments?

In Liberty,

Michael Krieger
