Confronting the Parasite Economy

The real economy delivers on the promise of capitalism.
The parasite economy relentlessly undermines it.
If, as many on the right are wont to do, we divide our nation into one of “makers” and “takers,” it’s not the working poor who deserve our derision, but the low-wage businesses that exploit them.
