Reminds me....there is a socialist professor named Bertell Ollman who, years ago, developed a board game called "Class Struggle." He wound up making it himself, and his description of the psychological impact of becoming a businessman is interesting....see the March 24, 1979 Op-Ed.
I think he is suffering from a fundamental misunderstanding....much of the psychological stress he describes is something that occurs with everybody that has to earn their living outside of certain privileged institutions. A Soviet factory manager, even after the end of the Stalin era, would have experienced largely the same kind of stresses that Ollman observed in himself.

Liberals hate being made fun of.
He is a professional historian, and he is this thin-skinned, this stupid?
