What's New About the 'New Elite'? A Washington Post Vacuous Piece
SEE HERE Vacuous, as in a whole lot of words about not much. Why is it a surprise that people raised to privilege, isolated from the average person by education, economic status, and neighborhood don't have a clue about how the average person thinks? The Washington Post column just goes on and on without really addressing any issue worth talking about. The problem, to the extent that there is one, is a group of people who imagine they are mainstream and in fact are so far out of the mainstream except in their coterie that they are barely recognizable. The American dream is still a dream for a majority of Americans. The comfortable set live in a world that is different and think that they can decide how the rest of us should live. That's a bad idea and they're getting called on it.
