Intellectualism and the Glorious Vision

I am always on alert to any political party where there is the near certainty there is a political elite who dominate its power, precepts and principles.   These types of political movements almost always give strong words to the equality of the people, while the leaders themselves believe they should be part of the party’s elite, the good shepherds of the movement.   It is all the others who are the sheep.    Such people justify themselves in their self-appointed roles as uniquely able, uniquely caring, and uniquely qualified.    All of this serves to make them fully self-satisfied and fundamentally good – in their minds.   Make no mistake, when someone in political power feels fundamentally good,   be concerned.    Such parties, upon assuming power, invariable become corrupt, morally and materially.     After all, when doing so much good, skimming a little by way of perks is only just.   And, helping our like-minded friends with beneficence is merely the right thing to do.   Moreove
