It is the (radical) left's belief that they can redesign society based on their intellectualism. It would make sense that "intellectuals" (or, people who think that they're smarter than what they are) follow this ideal.

It comes as no surprise to me that the left tend to make arguments based on "intellectualism", while the right's arguments are more philosophical.

Of course, I'm making sweeping statements, here, but you get what I mean.


The problem is, though, that the left is no more objective in their ideologies. They promote redesign by belief and not fact. You, and everyone else discussing this topic, need to read the book I mentioned by Thomas Sowell. He provides a ton of objective data in regards to policies and theories expoused by the left, and the realities of their data models either being skewed to fit their agenda, or entirely false when integrated into society.

I know full-well that the left are not objective. I didn't say that they were?

I will read that book, though, once I've finished Napolitano's.


I wasn't arguing that you weren't. Simply agreeing with you, and then suggesting a great book on this topic.


Haha, sorry. 9/10 times I get responded to, it's to refute my post...
