In the meantime…feel free not to try to “educate” me on anything. Republican or Democrat, you don’t need my buy-in to continue wrecking this country.

 2 comments to Samizdata quote of the day |
Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Oh No !!! How can we justify our tax exempt 501c3 status if we can’t ‘educate’ you.
Please Please Please reconsider. Our phony baloney jobs are at stake.
The “mainstream” (i.e. bankrupt and near bankrupt) media assume that the role of a Townhall meeting (or anything else) is for the politicians and/or “academic experts” to “educate” the public into supporting yet more expansion of the size and scope of government.
It never enters their minds that the public could be correct and the “experts” wrong.
For example, that it might be the existing subsidy schemes (such as Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP) and the vast web of regulations that make American health care so expensive – this never occurs to the elite.
And that yet more subsdies and regulations might make the situation even worse – well that never enters their minds either.
For this is one of the principle qualifications needed to be an elite academic expert – to have a closed mind, and a blind unreasoning faith in government.
If one that has this then the paper qualifications are sure to follow – as they are awarded by people who have closed minds and a blind unreasoning faith in government.
And then one can get a job either in the universities, or in Washington D.C., or in the “mainstream” media.
