“Expertise isn’t conveyed by title; it’s earned by consistently revealing a greater understanding of the world around us with exceptional competency and insight.”

Hitting this one out of the park today! But we should not forget all the power the liberals acquiesce to those who hold a title. We see it over the pandemic ...”I’ll decide after I hear from the experts.” Grrr...how about use your common sense! Experts have been wrong on so many fronts these first 5 months of the year!

I hear it all the time in my work too. Make sure who you are working with is credentialed, certified, etc. Never hearing the word...experienced. It’s true across all walks of life, not just politics.

Stop and think for a moment about them closing the schools and colleges. Many saying they won’t open in the fall...they are separating us into educated and uneducated. You can’t distance learn and become a surgeon.

This whole scenario is dismantling the American landscape.

Excellent essay.

One of the foundations of Progressivism was the necessity of being ruled by experts.

Modern society was too complex for an ordinary individual to understand, see... So experts had to make all the decisions for us.

The problem with that theory is an "expert" can be found for any policy decision you want, so the ruling class simply pick the experts fro the policies they desire.

It is a con game.
