What’s the market indicator for a successful academic: peer-reviewed papers and quotations, that’s it! Not a business built, jobs and wealth created, new products provided to the market etc.
That’s why academia is full of socialists and left-leaning people: they can’t survive in the real world as they don’t create value for society and their ideas generally don’t work in society, not in the long run.
"It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong”��� Thomas Sowell
@Peter_Fitz Lefties and socialists are warped people, it’s literally sadism wrapped in sympathy. The new term is suicidal empathy, sadly it’s quite fitting for Canada now…
@markbouris@cjoye You forgot to add he did Dom Perrottet’s sovereign wealth fund over good too when he was bleeding from his bond position…a great man!
