We need someone to post a paywall-bypass link. I don’t have the means or the knowledge to find such a link.

Note the FAQ [1] explicitly says comments like this asking how to read a paywalled article are ok:

> Are paywalls ok?

> It's ok to post stories from sites with paywalls that have workarounds.

> In comments, it's ok to ask how to read an article and to help other users do so. But please don't post complaints about paywalls. Those are off topic.

and you definitely have a right to read their content without paying.

That being said, though I agree the economist is allowed to charge whatever it wants for us to read their articles, I don't think their pay walled articles should be allowed in HN, as only a minor portion of the reader base would be able to access the content legally.
