Good article. Michael Young is saying I think we don’t have a real meritocracy. We have a self perpetuating elite that cloaks itself with a veneer of education and eruditeness. They not only have the gold, they control the universities that supposedly guarantee fairness and supposedly judges merit without bias.

If it looks like self dealing, if it sounds like self righteousness, if it stinks like hypocrisy —- it is because it is.
