The general themes here are correct. There is, at a minimum, a derth of intelligence and responsibility both in the white house and across the country's leadership. There are no guards rails, no one looking out for anyone but their billionaire backers.

The idolization of billionaires as paragons of leadership has led to average men with above average income convincing themselves they're an inch short of god.

We'll need a correction, many corrections even, to put this fad to bed.

What makes you think this is a fad? (unless you are using a bit of sarcasm)

When have any elite not thought they were the smartest, most virtuous, anointed by god, etc? I don't think you can just point to Rand or something -- That's just the modern context we view it through.

This is true. But there's also an overwhelming instinct for people to think the problems they face today are completely new and have no historical precedents
