          19th century Brits: “Surely the Free Market™ will correct this massive humanitarian disaster!”

          The Free Market: [does nothing]

    How many of these weekend warrior party animals would have survived the aftermath of The Great Sparrow Campaign and then The Cultural Revolution, one wonders. Or how their perception of things would be changed if they had lived through anything like that double sucker punch.
