The other Chomsky: Fighting for free markets

The wallstreet journal has published a very interesting article that takes a more objective view on MIT linguistic prof. Noam Chomsky's work and position, than most observers do. It is true, it is Chomsky's own (sometimes a bit populistic) behaviour that puts him into the role as figurehead for the left, but he has written much more profound and balanced texts on linguistics and politics, it is just that his 'anti-american', anti-capitalist pieces catch most attention. This at least claims the following article which also tries to proof the point by presenting some of his 'other ideas'. I felt it was really interesting stuff Chomsky deals with http://www.e-rooster.gr/11/2005/194
