That sounds like a way of narrative distortion - convincing people that higher prices are somehow a good thing, when all this does is hurt the working poor more than anyone else. Shame on NPR.

Shame on NPR. It's NPR-- their heart is in the right place, but their understanding of the world is academic. They think the way things should work is the way things actually do.
