A communist with The St Louis Post Disgrace as a mouth piece.
He took a minor in Envy.
Has he created a new, successful, business? This was the traditional American yardstick of success. He hasn't.
Has he come up through the ranks to run an established business? This was the second traditional American yardstick of success. He hasn't.
These first two yardsticks are uniquely American and were well established in our traditional ethos.
Did he inherit a business and run it successfully? This is a worldwide traditional yardstick of success. He hasn't.
So, the only yardstick of success left is the modern one - a whole bunch of academic degrees and letters behind his name and a minimal bank account. When did this modern yardstick become our only measurement of success? IMHO in the early 1970s when the student radicals of the proceeding decade discovered that their actions left then only the academic world to live in. Since then the professional student, no sustained full time job since summer jobs, has become our yardstick of success as this article demonstrates.
I am an expert on social justice too.
If you want to be poor, do what poor people do.
If you want to be rich, do what rich people do.
Simple.
