Left ideology is based on a lie
Perhaps for the first time in his career, Kejriwal has been called out on his lie, by Amit Shah.
Will that impact his career? Not at all. Do you think that folks who allow themselves to be defrauded online in crores by Nigerians will be able to read Kejriwal?
Stupidity is far more prevalent than we realise. Indians routinely defraud Americans and Canadians in online scams, posing as American tax officers. Both the countries have the best-educated populations.[1]
In fact, education seems to trigger the stupidity gene. In the most educated states of India, Kerala and West Bengal, the Leftists have ruled for decades and destroyed the economy of both, but Bengalis and Malayalis, though both fled their respective states because of the Left, still swear by Marx wherever they may be on the planet.[2][3]
What we forget is that what is true for an individual may not be true for society as a whole. For an individual, education may give him a better job than before.
Donald Trump was elected by the rural folks and lost big in the more educated states[4]. If we want to save Civilisation, perhaps we should abolish education.
The only explanation I can think of for the way education erases common sense and wisdom is that education has been linked to prosperity by the Leftists. Whenever you talk to a Leftist, he would say that to uplift the poor, educate them. So the educated seem to think that because they have a degree, money should simply fly into their pockets. When it doesn’t, they become greedy and desperate. And greed and desperation then drain common sense and wisdom out of their brains through the toes.
What we forget is that what is true for an individual may not be true for society as a whole. For an individual, education may give him a better job than before. But for society as a whole, only business and commerce generate jobs, and business and commerce need rule of law, respect for private property, and individual freedom. All three are anti-thesis of Leftism.
The educated never learn this, because the Leftists themselves teach them. What the educated do get along with their degrees is their sense of entitlement. But all their entitlements can not grow a single kilogram of wheat, nor can produce a single kilogram of steel. But both the latter can be accomplished by the illiterates who instead of going to school choose to work the fields or at the furnace of the nearest blacksmith.
