Thanks again for such a well-written and informative article. I spend a lot of time with friends and acquaintances showing them the basics of personal finance, and it is unfortunate there is so little of this built into the parental or education system.

“But some of her progressive allies don’t feel she’s done enough.”

Can one EVER “do enough” for progressives? Seriously, they’re pretty needy.

You know you’re a dick when there is an Onion article about said dickishness :)
