The Wisdom of Outstanding Men

Sandeep
I firmly believe we are a more prosperous, dynamic society when normal people are exposed to economic insights. We are perpetually bombarded with sophistries, nonsense, teleological hocus-pocus, self-important rationalism, and trumpeted statistics–in addition to coping with the disorienting position of living in many orders at once.

Economics provides powerful insights about human action that, when popularly understood, will fortify the foundations of an enduring free society. I assert that this popular understanding also assists our happiness. Some people (B.A.’s in English Lit., welfare-apologists, socialists of all parties) fume and snarl and generally become angry over what at its root is ‘class struggle’. Such anger leads to despondency, so it’s important to show people why it’s all so unnecessary (Be Easy!!).

I find that it’s good to direct people’s attention towards successful Outstanding Men.

Fuck You Lou Dobbs

Sandeep
A few moments ago I was reading MR and Alex alerted me to his appearance on Lou Dobbs.

They only aired a few words of his conversation with the show. The self-ordained Grand Priest and Wise-man of intellectuals, Lou Dobbs, went on to viciously attack free market economics, calling Alex an “idiot”, that economists were “dumb” and “out of their minds”.

How do people take this xenophobic fool seriously?

What is pseudoscience?

Sandeep
This is.

If, perhaps, you are impressionable to pseudoscience, then listen up!, ’cause MOST PEOPLE ARE GOING CRAAAAAZY!!!! WATCH OUT!

Question: Is it just me or are people in social democracies more susceptible to being fooled by pseudoscience?
