Robert Samuelson Just Doesn’t Get It

Samuelson thinks that maybe food prices were the cause of the recent political instability in the Middle East.

An old, white guy writing for a dead-tree medium would think that, wouldn’t he? Dude doesn’t even have a Twitter account. If stuff like commodities prices or ideology or ethno-religious tensions caused revolutions, then how come there weren’t any before Web 2.0 hit?
