Just one more way our bien pensants sneer at normal people

This article points out once again the subversive cultural attitudes of the elite. Do what you love is great if you're elite and have flexibility. But the concept is clearly contemptuous of normal everyday work. If DWYL is the driving principle then maids and other honorable low income work is crap.  And with our welfare state extending new and thicker tendrils in all directions it makes no sense for people at the bottom to work at crap jobs. Unless they love it.  No wonder our Lords are so desperate to expand immigration: their contempt for normal work is drying up the supply of little ones that enable them to "do what they love". And they hate that.

The inherent cultural contempt shown by the Boni for the society and norms that enable their wealth and status is surprising.  They seem to consider themselves our keepers rather than fellow citizens.  It's the Obama Hillary philosophy: shut up while we save you from yourselves.

A constitutional Republic cannot long endure such 'parental' treatment.

For we hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are not equal and some men are endowed by their educational pedigree to administer the little one's lives.  This is because those with high SATs are the wisest, kindest, bestest chaps of all.
