    The Economist is not a bunch of hippies. If they're worried, there's probably a serious problem here.http://econ.st/11yAkhL

        @paulg @jhwoodyatt you were being ironic, or did you not get the F-35 PR about how it is lifting the economy?

        @paulg @ioerror To be fair, it's a standard conservative/libertarian standpoint to be wary of government powers. No hippiedom required.

        @paulg From a Far Right Wing perspective, the Economist has been drifting left. Maybe they should have their own mag? The Daily Fascist?
