Thought of the Day

Specifically, I cannot stand the way New Class bureaucrats think they must be autonomous from the taxpayers who pay their salaries. Imagine if we lived in anything like the “Christianist” theocracy so many lefties live in quaking fear of. Evangelical bureaucrats would likely fund art they liked. The professional Bohemians would shriek — with some justification — that the state was imposing its values on the rest of us. But when those same people are in driving the gravy train, they think there’s nothing wrong — and everything right — with imposing their values.

 Jonah Goldberg


Although I have to admit that, on the whole, I might prefer the art picked by lefties, but that's just a de gustibus thing. Professional Bohemians. Good one, Jonah.
