I beleive the article just said this is not the Left, or the Right. It's mostly global corporatism. And they Do have the money and the power to create the well-regulated world they want. And both parties have supported those "trade agreements" that destroy our national sovereignty, and continue to do so. Wake up before you have a number stamped on your forehead.

I like the article generally, but I think it is flawed where it objects to more teaching of the arts.

It is now known that teaching of music actually increases mathematical skills (The Greeks knew this), so there is nothing wrong in teaching the arts.

And frankly, I know a lot of techies who seem to have no ability to reason at all, beyond their specialty. They can write programs but their common sense has fled the coop. Sifting the fine nuances of social discourse, or piercing through the clever lies of politicians, often requires more than a simple scientific bludgeon.
