« The right war in the right place at the right time | Main | "The canary in the coal mine"? »

March 20, 2006

Le realite et toi, vous ne vous entendez pas, n'est-ce pas? (Part Deux)

Thomas Sowell offers a must-read on the France's newest riots, this time by socialist students who believe lifetime tenure and a job for life are their birthright:

Student riots in Paris remind us that education at elite academic institutions is not enough to teach either higher morals or basic economics....
Why are students at the Sorbonne and other distinguished institutions out trashing the streets and attacking the police? Because they want privileges in the name of rights, and are too ignorant of economics to realize that those privileges cost them jobs.
