The Best and the Brightest – Think Not

One of the most striking things about attending my son’s graduation from Harvard College was looking at the relative size of the different colleges. The two largest were the schools of law and Kennedy which touts its public policy education and is the primary source of our federal bureaucracy personnel. One look at the website for the Kennedy school tells you a lot about their bias and the current state of our federal government.

The indoctrination that our K – 12 graders have been subjected to are reinforced and amplified by this elite (and other) institution’s unabashed bias for socialism. Sitting on an endowment of over $42 billion allows one to pontificate on the dangers of capitalism, personal responsibility and the role of government in making sure everyone does the right thing.

Many of the best minds in our country are not pursuing public office. Who can blame them when politics has become a blood sport? President Trump suffers financially and is hounded with spurious legal inquiries. Many a businessman has thrown their towel in after being bludgeoned by a complicit media that seems to have our country’s ruin as their objective. Apparently, we want saints for leaders and preferably those without any successes in their past that may have accrued in monetary gains.

Who we get are academics coming out of liberal/progressive/Marxist curriculums with no real-world experiences like making and keeping to a budget hence “Modern Monetary Policy”. We get people who never missed a meal, vacation or a Christmas present and now want everyone else to live their life of luxury but on someone else’s dime. I don’t question their sincerity because it’s clear, they know no better. They have been living in this bubble world all their lives.
