Jobs are migrating to new areas across the U.S. Temping is ever more permanent for some workers, and relentless corporate downsizing will forge thousands of new entrepreneurs.

Chomsky’s relentless criticism of U.S. foreign policy (along with his groundbreaking work as a linguist) has earned him The New York Times’ praise as “arguably the most important intellectual alive...
